When you get on every major news media by having a book tour, a governor, high profile Republicans, visit or A President to be, that is marketing. It doesn't just happen. It costs for the security, lodging for the entourage, meals, entertainment, transportation. That's all marketing. How about having FOX news broadcast from here twice. Have any idea what that cost or how many people that reached? That's marketing.

I get how anybody who is looking forward to moving here( I did too) or is new here or just loves it. Enjoy it.
Phone is ringing and I've got much to do today. Everyone have a great day!
I think everybody gets the drift of "marketing" thank-you. They have an outstanding marketing department. What are are you attempting to convey?
