Want to win $1,000?

Hello! J

The American Marketing Association of GVSU is selling raffle tickets to help Professor Maria Landon and her husband’s church fund a new youth center! 1st prize is $1,000 cash, 2nd prize is a $200 gift certificate, and there are many more prizes (listed on the ticket). You don’t have to be present to win! Not only does this count as a community service for our club, but also a fundraiser: our club receives $1 for every ticket we sell, which would be very helpful in getting us to the national conference in New Orleans next year.

Tickets are:
$5 each, or
$10 for 3, or
$30 for 10

The drawing will be on Saturday, August 24th, at 9:00 PM at the Yassou (Greek Cultural) Festival. Like I said, you don’t have to be present to win (although I’m sure the festival will be awesome fun)- if your ticket is drawn you will be contacted by James Landon or another representative of the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church organizing the event.

To buy a ticket or tickets, shoot me an e-mail at valicer@mail.gvsu.edu or call/text at (586) 453-5166.

Thank you and good luck! J

Rachel Valice, VP of Communications


P.S.: James wants me to encourage everyone to attend the festival, regardless of if you bought raffle tickets or not. He assures me there will be tons of great cultural dancing, music, and Greek food and desserts!

Coming Soon

Hi! I'm Rachel, the new Vice President of Communications for the Grand Valley State University collegiate chapter of the American Marketing Association (whew!). 

As well as communications (e-mails, promotional materials for web and print, etc.), I handle the club's graphics, advertising, designs, and web presence/maintenance (aka, social media and the official club website). I'm also the Financial Officer for the Humane Society club of Grand Valley, and I work as a Web Designer at Grand Valley State University Institutional Marketing as a student member of the Web Team. I'm an Advertising & PR Major with a Studio Art Minor. I live off campus, I have 2 ratties named Betty and Gemma, and I love food. Like, a lot.


The new grandvalleyama.com is currently underway, with a ton of HTML and CSS that is kicking my butt. Hopefully when it's done, it'll not only blow you away, but blow all other club sites out of the water. Our website will be the best. Trust me.


We currently have our official Twitter (@gvsuama) and Facebook (Grand Valley AMA) accounts up and running; feel free to follow us for updates on meetings, events, articles, and speakers. Of course, we are also on GVSU's OrgSync (American Marketing Association).



Look out for up-and-coming accounts on these other social media platforms:

YouTube (amagvsu)
Google+ (Grand Valley AMA)
tumblr (grandvalleyama.tumblr.com)
Vine (@amagvsu)

LinkedIn (American Marketing Association - Grand Valley State University Chapter)

And you can follow me on Twitter @rachelvalice, as I rant and rave about how everything is coming along. I'm also on LinkedIn and tumblr.

Stay tuned for more,

Rachel
