Carla Dozier and her staff have been making the men and women of Oak Harbor beautiful for 27 years. Customers will appreciate the professional, spa-like atmo-sphere with a great view of the bay.

Dozier credits her staff for her success. “I am proud to say that when someone comes to work here, they don’t want to leave. I have people that have been here since we opened. Low turnover means our customers know that their stylist will be HERE when they make their next appointment. We’ve created an environment where we enjoy sharing new tech-niques and skills with each other that will enhance the customer

experience. We ALL recognize the importance of putting the customer � rst”. And, as a customer, you will immediately sense this level of service and dedication the moment you walk in the door.

At Carlas, it’s clear that these women really love what they do, love each other and most impor-tantly, love their customers.

Business Pro� le Advertorial Sample & Form

The Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce and the Whidbey News-Times have once again partnered to bring you the 2009 Oak Harbor Community Pro� le & Chamber Directory.

In order to better serve the community, last year the Directory evolved into a 60-page magazine focused completely on Oak Harbor and our businesses.

In its second year of this format, the publication will again have an artfully designed, gloss card cover with a glossy type coated stock on the inside. There will be beautiful full color page layouts and innovative ways to market your business. In addition, we will highlight all chamber members in an alphabetical listing at no charge. All Chamber members who place advertising in the magazine will receive their listing in color free of charge. Additional listings and listing options are available through the Chamber of� ce.

Our goal is to provide readers with snapshot of what makes Oak Harbor such a terri� c place to live, work and play. We’ll take a look at the local economy, healthcare, education, transportation, arts and entertainment.

Our newest form of advertising in the magazine is the “Business Pro� le Advertorial.” You will have an opportunity to purchase space for a feature story about your business. This is a great way to tell everything you want a customer to know about the products and services you provide and the competitive advantages you hold in the Oak Harbor market. On the back page of this � yer, you will � nd a sample of what your advertorial might look like and a form for you to � ll out in order to be included. Pricing for advertorials are listed on the attached price list.

We will print 6,000 copies. Every Chamber will receive their own copy and the additional copies will be available to you and your customers at the Chamber of� ce, local Real Estate of� ces, coffee shops and a variety of chamber business members throughout Oak Harbor.

If you have any questions about this publication please feel free to contact your Whidbey News-Times advertising representative or the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce.

We hope that you are as excited as we are about this year’s Community Pro� le & Chamber Directory and hope that you continue to you let us know what you think and offer up suggestions that will help it grow.
