Promoting Your Business Visibility at GSDBA

I wanted to personally encourage companies to promote their visibility in the Greater San Diego Business Association Directory.   In 2013, hundreds of businesses successfully participated in our directory and we are now in the 2014 Directory season.   Online, you can review the Directory Advertising Highlights and pricing at GSDBA Directory Information page.  If you would like visibility in the directory, please go to 2014 GSDBA Directory Form.

With the visibility given to the end of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, the end of DOMA, the end of Proposition 8, the LGBT Community is the most watched community as they embrace growing equality, including marriage. GSDBA will be having a Wedding section so that GSDBA members who cater to the needs of of those who want to celebrate their nuptials in a special section this year.

As a member of GSDBA, you have the ability to promote your company, and its brand, through the GSDBA directory, both printed and online, which reaches over 28,000 households who feel part of the LGBT community and respect and encourage diversity.

People who shop and invest, search for professional services, or who are searching for a new employment opportunity use our GSDBA Directory as a source to find businesses, professionals, and companies that believe in equality, support organizations that work for diversity, and believe that the LGBT Community is a valuable component to their success.   The directory is a strong part of a smart marketing and visibility strategy.

Should you want a more robust plan for visibility and sponsorship which includes Directory visibility, consider supporting GSDBA more aggressively.  GSDBA has developed several levels of Sponsorship for organizations and companies who want to support our efforts at diversity, work place equality, and building business success in the diverse LGBT community.  Consider joining great companies with names like Scripps, SDG&E, Union Bank, Century 21 Award, Cox Business, Waddell & Reed, and Met Life and others as sponsors of GSDBA who support the mission of GSDBA.

With a strong directory, a loyal membership and board of directors focused on serving the needs of its members, I am excited about the new direction for our news magazine starting in November, along with new ways of creating visibility and attracting consumers for our members.  This new engagement and coordination will grow our visibility and success for the next decade.

For individuals, no matter whether you are a business owner, a professional, or simply appreciate the efforts to bring LGBT issues into the work place in the many ways GSDBA does for the LGBT community, we have a membership level for you to join us in our efforts.  Joining GSDBA as a friend of GSDBA, a member of GSDBA, or a VIP level member assists us in our work, and we will make sure the 2014 GSDBA Directory is mailed as one of the membership benefits.  

Visit with me, a GSDBA board member, Michelle Burkart, the GSDBA Interim General Manager, or our new Directory Sales Representative, Rob Rankin.   Directory deadline is September 27, 2013.
