Public Relations and Media efforts pay off for Penobscot Bay Regional Chamber of Commerce
The Rockland-Thomaston area is now recognized as a major destination in New England. We have drawn the attention of the nation's media.
The region's public relations success is due in large part to Sharon Kitchens of SKPR and Nancy Marshall Communications - the state's public relations consultant. Not having enough resources to mount a traditional advertising campaign in the primary target markets, the visibility the area has gained through articles and news stories is enormously more powerful than any ad campaign that they could have conducted.
So far this spring the area has been covered by the following (known) media sources:
Architectural Digest
Cottage Living
Coastal Living (2)
Boston Magazine, Bangor Metro Magazine
Gourmet
Town & Country
Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel
Kansas City Star
Boston Globe
Boston Herald
Newsweek
Downeast
Maine Boats-Homes and Harbors
Portland Magazine
Travel & Leisure
the Food Network
Maine Public Radio
Travel Talk Radio
National Geographic Adventure
