Corona Del Mar Chamber

Since 2001, GSC has provided many services for this 47-year old community called Corona del Mar, located in the City of Newport Beach. Working in conjunction with the Corona del Mar Chamber and marketing consultant firm California Marketing Concepts, initially we created a website for the CdM Business Improvement District which was an instrumental tool to communicate the Community's Vision 2004 Plans.

Additionally, we were asked to combine the Corona del Mar Chamber's site with Corona del Mar Business Improvement District's site - yielding in a more streamline communications for the community at large. This new site (launched in January 2004) now serves as the most effect way for the community, visitors and businesses to find and distribute information on the Corona del Mar community.

An added feature of the new site, CdMChamber.com, is the on-line business directory. Created in Microsoft Access with an ASP front end, the Chamber staff can manage this directory on a daily basis and their changes are reflected 'real time' to the Internet. The system also allows for the Chamber to keep track of membership dues, create advertisements campaigns and communicate via e-mail band direct mail with more efficiencies than ever before.

"On behalf of the Corona del Mar Chamber and the businesses of Corona del Mar, I want to thank you for the design and on-going management of our website," says Linda Leonhard, Executive Director of The CdM Chamber. "We've had great feedback already from our business leaders and this initiative has opened up a revenue stream for the Chamber that we have not had in the past."

GSC is a Costa Mesa-based Internet consulting and web design firm offering a full range of services to small to medium-sized companies in Orange County. GSC is an ideal resource for companies that need a world class website and Internet strategy but cannot afford to hire full time webmasters, programmers and IT staff.
