    Advertising Opportunities in Cape Cod Chamber publications
    .
    Advertising rates for all Cape Cod Chamber publication have all been set and mailed out.

    The Official Guide to Cape Cod is our number one tourism guide. Bar none the most recognized, requested and most complete vacation planning directory on Cape Cod. We distribute hundreds of thousands annually on the Cape at ALL information centers and high traffic locations. In the past five months we have sent 36,898 directories to qualified visitors coming to Cape Cod. This is an ideal advertising source for those members that provide accommodations, foodservice, shopping, transportation etc.

    The Official Cape Cod Golf Guide is in its fifth year of publication and it continues to grow and expand. It is, without a doubt, the hidden gem of advertising possibilities for Cape businesses. Over the past two years, its circulation has more than tripled from its initial run of 30,000 copies. It is aimed at the regional golfer who is interested in playing in one of the most unique golfing regions in the country. Cape Cod has 30 golf courses available for public play. Those numbers translate into 1.8 million rounds of golf per year generating over $350 million to the overall Cape Cod economy. The game appeals to people of all walks of life, but is particularly appealing to those people who are deemed to have the most discretionary income in our society. With Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce attendance at no less than eight consumer golf shows throughout the winter and spring, these guides are made directly available to folks from Philadelphia to Toronto, Montreal, Portland, Boston and the Greater New York City area. Last year over 115,000 people attended the shows at which the Chamber had a presence and was distributing the Golf Guide.
