Corporate Marketing


The EEDA offers custom corporate marketing to companies, which is tailored to reach relevant media outlets and business publications.


This service is for companies new to Edmond, companies launching new products and services or companies forming new partnerships.


Corporate marketing services include media placement, news release and publication writing, media kit development and news conference planning.


Contact Toni Weinmeister at tw@eeda.com or (405) 340-0116 for details.


“The advantage of having the EEDA promote your project or development is that the story comes from an independent, third party and is delivered to a broader media base with an increased amount of credibility,” said Derek Turner, chairman of Turner & Company.


Executive Briefing Series


Executive briefings provide a forum for Edmond companies to reach beyond the Edmond marketplace to promote their products and services. Edmond companies can contract with the EEDA for this comprehensive event planning service.


Executive briefings are great for companies, because they introduce products to new markets, which is one of the best ways to grow a company. They're also great for the Edmond area, because companies draw wealth from those new markets back into Edmond.


Contact Toni Weinmeister at tw@eeda.com or (405) 340-0116 for pricing and availability.


Competitive Intelligence


Thanks to the Web, business moves at the speed of a mouse click and the question is no longer, “Will I come up with the idea and sell it?” It is now, “Will I come up with the idea and sell it FIRST?”


Edmond companies can outweigh the competition with a new approach to an old, dependable idea—keeping up with and ahead of the competitors.


Contact the EEDA at jy@eeda.com or (405) 340-0116 for pricing details.
