SCAFFOLDING
THE NAME SAYS IT ALL!

Up until this point, the marketing campaign has relied on the dedicated volunteer efforts of the Council members. They are in need of your help and financial assistance to move forward, though. Lynn Nash, Executive Director of the North Carolina Masonry Contractors Association and Treasurer of the Executive Council, had this to say about what the coalition needs to move forward.

"Besides the most obvious way to help the campaign succeed that is, making an individual company monetary contribution mason contractors must strongly encourage their local and state promotional groups to participate by contributing funds and making available local promotional resources that can be incorporated into the web site reference base," says Nash. "Local groups must take ownership in this project. Thus far there is no source of funding except what comes from individual companies and local groups. When the MasonrySystems.org web site is ready to go public, I'd like to see mason contractors, as well as local promotional groups, incorporate the logo into their stationary and printed material. A link on company web sites would be a great way to promote the new program."

Once the web site and advertisements begin in the fall, it will take approximately $250,000 to promote MasonrySystems.org for one year. After the Executive's Council finished their presentation at the Annual Meeting, Jim O'Connor, MCA-Chicago, presented the first contribution toward the campaign. It's time for others to join in and do the same.
