Space still available for YP Sounding Sessions

Give Back Cincinnati will be hosting its latest YP Sounding Sessions this week, and there's still time to register.

Sessions being held today and Thursday will focus on the Downtown Cincinnati, Inc. (DCI) Enhanced Marketing Plan, being developed to raise awareness of downtown as a dynamic regional metropolitan center.

DCI will be presenting three different options for a regional marketing campaign to see which one resonates the most with a young professional audience.

Attendees will then split into four breakout sessions and select three key points from the presentation, which will be shared with the group as a whole.

Feedback from the sessions will be used by DCI to choose which campaign they'll launch in July.

Barbara Hauser, marketing director for the Cincinnati Ballet, says that in addition to providing feedback, the sounding sessions are an excellent opportunity for young professionals to network with business leaders and others making a positive contribution in the region.

"We've always had high attendance," she says.  "And we've seen quite a few people get on the boards of our presenters or serve on their committees.  It's been a good way for people to make connections socially and professionally."

Registration begins at 5:30 at Churchill's Tea Room and Gift Shop at Tower Place Mall, with sessions beginning at 6 PM.

Space is limited, so pre-registration is encouraged.
