Loconut TV Concept -The Chamber Executive, whilst looking for an interesting internet based marketing project, has been presented with an interesting concept by a Perth based production company call “Loconut T.V”.

THE PITCH:  To create a video showcasing the business and broader community with a quirky people based concept capable of going viral.

THE AIMS:   To generate interest in the Margaret River region utilizing it ‘s greatest asset the people. High return (media air time, internet, etc.) for minimal investment.

THE IDEA:    Based around the concept that what you see is not what you always get. The profile Facebook photo, online dating, the misleading scenery shot etc. “The real Margaret River” and we don’t “fake it”.

The Chamber Executive seeks an expression of interest from members as regards funding the project - $110 per business. The Executive believes the project will generate goodwill for local Margaret River businesses and a good return for a small outlay.

There are no guarantees but we will try our very best to facilitate with Loconut the creation of something we can be proud of and ask that you support “YOUR” chamber executive with this project….please respond by clicking on the survey below and answering with a “yes or no”
