Ribbon Cuttings

The Richardson Chamber of Commerce celebrates every new member with a red ribbon cutting.

Ribbon cuttings are scheduled on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at either 9 a.m. or 4 p.m.

Representing the Chamber at ribbon cuttings are its Ambassadors and Welcome Team. The Chamber provides a Welcome Team banner, red ribbon and gold scissors. The Chamber will also take pictures of the ribbon cutting. Ribbon cutting photos appear in the Chamber's Action newsletter (e-mailed to 5,000 contacts every month) and the Richardson section of The Dallas Morning News.

Ribbon cuttings are an excellent marketing opportunity. Here are a few tips on making one a success:

  1. Invite friends, family, business associates, vendors and even prospective clients. Really get the word out!

  2. Serve refreshments or light hors d'oeuvres especially for ceremonies scheduled around the end of the day.

  3. Give away door prizes or gift certificates and let the Chamber know in advance so that it can be publicized.
