Ribbon Cuttings

REASONS TO HAVE A RIBBON CUTTING

  • Promotions
  • Expansions
  • New product lines
  • Change of locations
  • Opening a second location
  • Change of ownership
  • Name change
  • Groundbreaking
  • New business
  • Anniversary

THINGS TO CONSIDER…

  • Determine how elaborate you want your event to be.
  • Do you want a private party or a public event?
  • Do you want to advertise through the media, or just send invitations to friends, business associates, customers, suppliers, etc.?
  • Will you serve refreshments (hors d’oeuvres, champagne, punch, cookies)? Maybe even cater the event.

ONCE YOU KNOW YOU WANT A RIBBON CUTTING:

  • Call the Chamber and set the date.
  • Give the Chamber three weeks’ minimum notice. This allows time for your event to be added to the calendar of events.

HELPFUL HINTS

  • Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursdays are the best days to hold a ribbon cutting.
  • The best attendance occurs when the event is planned before work (8:30 a.m.), around lunch time (11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.) or after work (5:00 – 5:30 p.m.).
  • Ribbon cuttings are most successful when you make a lasting impression. Try offering refreshments, utilize gimmicks, giveaways and drawings.
