Business After Hours

We're here to help your event be successful and that means we can design your invitation for you, if you don't have a marketing or communications team to do it. If you have a graphic designer, you are welcome to work with them directly to create your invitation in the sizes below.

Each invitation will be made available in two sizes and mediums:

• 800px x 800px square graphic for use in our electronic messages, including on social media
• 4" x 6" printed card to be passed out at Chamber functions leading up to the event — Print-ready, one-sided CMYK four-color EPS, TIFF, PDF or JPG (300+ dpi) with 1/8” bleeds

If we create a design for you, we need:

• A high-quality version of your logo
• One high-quality photo to be included
• The time, date and place of the event

Hosts will have the opportunity to give feedback and have up to two rounds of minor edits to the invitations.

If you create the design, it should include:

• The Greater Waco Chamber logo and Business After Hours wordmark
• Your logo
• The time, date and place of the event

Please note that the Chamber Team reserves the right to request changes to invitations for our use.

Whether you are creating an invitation or sending us marketing collateral, we need the final, approved files no later than six weeks prior to the event. This will allow us time to print cards and plan digital marketing appropriately.

• Electronic invitations sent to 3,300 email addresses, twice, at least two weeks prior to the event
• Promoted in the Chamber E-Weekly newsletter twice, at least two weeks prior to the event
• Cards are printed and handed out at different chamber functions leading up to the event
• At least two event posts on the Waco Chamber-Members Only Facebook account

• Create a Facebook event and add the Greater Waco Chamber as a co-host
• Write a press release and send to the media
• Invite your customers and prospects, business partners and employees
