Short on Events for the Calendar?
If you're short on events borrow some. Go to a local online community calendar and see
if they have a syndication feed. If they do usually you can syndicate their content
directly to your site.
Several good resources for finding events are available at no cost. Try these and your
dynamic calendar will become more dynamic in a hurry:
- Local Newspaper’s Website
- The Chamber of Commerce Website
- Local Chapters of Networking Groups
- Local Public Radio Websites
- Local Major Radio Websites
Newspapers often keep a calendar of events that is very accessible. Some other web sites
that have really good dynamic events calendars that you can borrow from are radio
station web sites. They usually are on the tip of what's going on around town.
The Chamber of Commerce web site is also a very smart place to look for events. Events like
networking and social events, where there's a large group, are always a plus.
Keep in mind that there is nothing wrong with hosting your daily specials or evening
happy hour times, a drink special for each day of the week, or soup of the day. These
sorts of things are very good “events” for your event calendar.
