LAKEPORT – Relations is a great way to grow your business. It’s more credible than advertising, and, best of all – it's free.

On Monday, June 8, from 6 p.m. to 6:59 p.m. the Lakeport Chamber of Commerce will present the most recent in its 59-minute seminars at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St. Register online at www.lakeportchamber.com.

This 59-minute seminar will provide you a thorough overview of public relations. For those of you familiar with public relations, brain cells will be rekindled to remember what you already know and are not using.

The audience is business owners and organization leaders, and is meant to provide attendees with a platform of information necessary for creating an effective public relations plan.

Participants will learn about what public relations is, why public relations are important to a business and the elements of a public relations plan – including how to write a press release.

The seminar will be presented by Cynthia Parkhill, editor of the Clear Lake Observer-American and focus pages editor for the Lake County Record-Bee.
