Build a better business with us.
The outing raised money for the
Chamber and also for our
Scholarship fund. New this year, we
supported the non-profit Girls Golf
Revolution which raises awareness
for junior girls golf. Two young
golfers, Libby and Kate, hit the
course and impressed our golfers
with their swings.
Here’s hoping lots of business deals
were closed on the course!

Members Doing Business With Members
Matthew Weiss and Jonathan Wright
This month’s “Members Doing Business With
Members” involves two of Western Chester County
Chamber’s Young Professionals – Matthew Weiss of
Hyland Graphic Design & Advertising and Jonathan
Wright of The Wright Agency. Not only have these two
chamber members done business together in recent
years and in 2014 but they have been interacting with
one another in Chester County for almost 20 years!
First meeting in high school, Matthew and Jonathan
have remained friends since 10th grade at
Downingtown High School.
Fast forward to present day and you have a relationship
that is mutually beneficial for both businesses. Hyland
Graphic Design & Advertising was able to design and
print new marketing materials for The Wright Agency
and is also currently working on a large format banner
for them as well. Keep an eye out for this new banner
at an upcoming chamber event. On the flip side, The
Wright Agency is working with Hyland Graphic
Design & Advertising to ensure their business
insurance is perfectly matched to their needs as a
rapidly growing small business. The consultation from
Jonathan to Matthew about business insurance needs
will not only help Hyland Graphics now – but make
them scalable for years to come.
These two members are not only long time friends and
active chamber members but they are also practicing
what they preach by utilizing one another’s services
and keeping the business local – right here in Western
Chester County. Contact Matthew Weiss & Jonathan
Wright for a free quote on their respective services

Regional Planning Initiative
Committee of the Western
Chester County Chamber of Commerce.
“The Regional Planning Initiative Committee was created
seven years ago. It is open to all Chamber members and
to local and regional officials to come out and discuss
planning issues and topics of regional concern,” explained
Prowant, who has chaired the Committee since the
beginning.
The Committee has been treated to guest speakers with
varied expertise in, and influence on, the region’s
roadways, real estate development, public transportation,
and urban planning. Speakers have included
representatives from Chester County Planning
Commission, Delaware Valley Regional Planning
Commission, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation,
and Chester County Airport.
regional cooperation and coordination and marketing of
the area to attract new businesses and visitors. Seven
municipalities, regional groups and organizations were
involved with the study.
Follow-up achievements of the study include establishing
a Regional Council of Governments, summits and events
related to area business districts, support for important
transportation projects and establishment of a regional
website regarding economic development and an
interactive land development site map.
The Committee currently is discussing ways to market the
region, and has established a task force to brand Western
Chester County as a desirable destination for tourists, new
residents and corporations. The Committee is also
considering a proposed transportation study for the Route
30 Corridor.
Prowant invites every WCCCC member to come check
out the Committee (and the coffee): “Chamber members
and local officials are welcome to join and participate in
monthly discussions about how we can plan for a better
tomorrow in our region.”
“When you attend these meetings, you are meeting the
movers and shakers in Western Chester County,” said
Committee and WCCCC member Tony Buck. “You are
‘out in front’ – you get to hear what’s being considered,
and get to understand the important initiatives.”
The Committee is involved with the Annual Municipal
Luncheon and hosts or participates in periodic summits on
transportation and the local economy.
“This Committee connects all the elements needed to
unify various entities for something of greater value to
everyone,” said Committee member and WCCCC Board
Member Bob Holliday.
A great example is the Committee’s greatest
accomplishment to date: completion of a Regional
Economic Study for the Coatesville School District Area
known as the Western Chester County Future Focus
Study. The study was completed in 2011 and included
recommendations on attracting new business, reinforcing
local heritage, supporting transportation improvements,

Storm Preparedness for Business
By Nina Malone, Arbonne
Sure, there was excessive shoveling and tree disposal and
hassles galore at home this past winter, but how about at
your business? The polar vortex may be a memory right
now, but named hurricanes will crop us this summer.
Here’s how to make sure your business is ready for what
Mother Nature has to offer:
•
•
•
•
•
Plan early: That means now, before a storm is in sight.
Protect property
• Invest in wood or shutters to have on hand to
protect windows and doors
• Back-up important documents such as insurance
policies, contracts, tax returns, etc.
• Make sure your computer back-up service is
current; business-critical information should be
backed-up daily.
Get a check-up and do some maintenance:
• Have the roof inspected
• Make sure your gutters/drainage are free of debris
year-round
• Bring in a tree expert to evaluate and/or prune as
needed
Have on hand:
• Batteries – lots of them in all sizes, including cell
phone battery packs
• Flashlights
• Battery-operated radio
• Food and water for you and your employees
(three days’ worth is recommended)
• Blankets, pillows and towels
• First-aid kits
• Basic toolkit
• Cash
• Electric generator
Right before the storm hits:
• Gas up vehicles
• Secure gas for the electric generator
• Barricade windows and doors
•
When the
h storm iis iimminent:
i
• Relocate valuables, including important
electronics; or, move them to a higher location
and strap them in for safety.
• Secure, raise or relocate appliances that sit on the
floor
• If practical, turn off utilities just prior to landfall

Mobile Website vs. Mobile App
By Judith Lee
Mobile is the number one trend to watch in Social
Marketing this year. A common question I hear is, “What’s
the difference between a mobile website and a mobile
app?”
A mobile website is a website that is enabled to appear on
a smartphone, iPad or tablet screen. A website built for
viewing on a computer screen often will be too slow to
load and difficult to navigate when viewed on a mobile
device. A mobile website is scaled for the smaller screen
and will load quickly. An example is the Western Chester
County Chamber of Commerce mobile-responsive website,
which you can view from your smartphone.
If your website does not automatically scale to mobile
when opened on a mobile device, you very much should
talk to your web designer about creating a mobile website.
A mobile app is designed specifically for mobile devices. It
gets downloaded to the device, and stays there, so the user
doesn’t have to search for it again. A mobile app will
contain the information that your clients or customers
need, and make it easy for them to contact you through the
mobile device. It may even provide ordering capabilities
and GPS directions to your business.
Which is better for your business? You really need both of
these vehicles to market your business.
You need a mobile-responsive website because most
smartphone users (60% of US population and growing)
view websites more often from their phone than from
computer screens. If you don’t have a mobile-responsive
site, your website is not displaying properly for all those
smartphone users, and it’s most likely annoying them too.
You also need a mobile app, because smartphone users
prefer apps over websites when interacting with a business.
Research shows the average smartphone user spends 127
minutes a day on mobile apps! Surely you’ve used the app
from your favorite chain to order takeout, or like me, you
look at the Weather Channel app to get up-to-date weather
forecasts. Think about the power of an app for your
business.
Note: Judith Lee is a WCCCC member. On May 19, she
will be giving a SCORE Presentation on behalf of
WCCCC, entitled “The Social + Mobile Equation”
The Brandywine – Heritage & Vision
Western Chester County has a rich history connected to
the life of the Brandywine. Three phenomenal speakers
shared their work with chamber members and guests in a
filled Lukens Conference Room recently. Their focus
was: to restore the Brandywine and renew the cultural
heritage and spirit of our Nation along the Brandywine.
Bob Holliday, Founder/Resource, Brandywine
Regeneration Project, addressed the importance of
Renewing the Spirit of our Nation, which includes the
Battle of the Brandywine and the creative force and
industrial generation of our country which occurred along
the Brandywine.
Karen Marshall, Historic Preservation Officer for the
Chester County Planning Commission defined the
Brandywine Creek, its heritage and conservation areas
and spoke about the significance of its cultural heritage.
Sheila Fleming, Senior Planner for the Brandywine
Conservancy, spoke about the Brandywine Creek
Greenway and the importance of trees and forests to
preserving vital habitat corridors, improving water quality
and conserving our cultural heritage.
