... a way to make the web work

for you by using online audio and

video spots to attract and retain

customers while developing new

partner relationships.What is the MemberCast Program?

How much will this service cost?

What if I need to change my audio/video spot?

Im a small business, why would I need this service?

MemberCast is low cost online audio/video hosting service oered by the Napa Chamber designed to enhance yourlocal business directory listing by oering accompanying audio/video links posted directly in your companys listing.

MemberCast is very cost eective. The annual service charge is only $95 or either audio or video. The set up is easyonce you have your audio/video le ready to go. When you sign up, well give you more ino and support to help yourprocess fow smoothly! And as a value-added benet, your media message will be placed in the MemberCast homepage on napachamber.com or even more advertising impressions.

The MemberCast program is very fexible... it allows or up to three changes per year.

Video creates a level playing eld or small businesses. For years, when it comes to video, theres been a series o unairadvantages in the avor o big companies. Video creation was expensive and buying media was even more expensive.Clients relied heavily on agencies to get the message right because once you paid thousands o dollars or creative, itbetter be built to last.

Today, creating compelling video is very accessible to small businesses at a raction o the cost. But beyondaordable creation, small businesses need the ability to measure and alter their marketing eorts in order to maximizetheir return. Making a audio spot or creating a video has never been easier... you can hire someone - there are several localexperts in the eld among your ellow Chamber members, see sidebar below. Or you can produce your own and send usthe YouTube embed code or mp3 le.
