Attention all event planners: We noticed the demand for groundbreaking shovels in Ohio! We shipped quite a bit of groundbreaking shovels to the Buckeye State this year and of all groundbreaking supplies, they topped the list in Ohio. A little investigation could point to the reason. The US Bureau of Economic Analysis reported data of Growth Domestic Product (GDP) by state showing Ohio State at the top of Midwestern States, with a growth rate of 3.7%. What does this mean for you? This increase points to a huge commercial real estate boom, especially in downtown Columbus, Ohio, which translates to more first sod-cuttings and grand openings - and this is most likely the reason why our groundbreaking shovels, grand opening ribbons, ceremonial scissors, and red carpets have made their way to Ohio State this year. It's important for event planners to expand their vision beyond weddings and birthdays into the growing trend of first sod-cutting events. Why? Because they're fun, and they're growing!
Heavy investment from companies such as Bridge Park, Pharma Force Inc, (now American Regent, a division of the giant global pharmaceutical conglomerate Daiichi Sankyo Group), Root Insurance, the first national mobile app insurance, and others that have pumped over half a billion dollars combined into the Buckeye State, is naturally creating fast construction development. Putting together a groundbreaking ceremony or a grand opening is going to be a common site in Ohio. For an uncommon and truly memorable event, whether in smaller cities like Dayton, Lima, Akron, Toledo to their larger neighboring cities like Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati, following a few basic guidelines will make a first ground cutting ceremony or a grand opening event as attractive and interesting as a lavish Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. The perfect groundbreaking shovels, giant ceremonial scissors, stanchions, red carpet, personalized ribbons and step and repeat banners and other related items are key for a fun, colorful, and successful ground cutting ceremony, and every event planner in Ohio should be able to address this like a seasoned pro! Here's how:
Plan in Advance. We can't stress this enough, and yes, whilst we will get pretty close to time-travel paradoxes to make sure you receive your groundbreaking shovels in Ohio, on time, give yourself at least a couple of weeks to reduce unnecessary worry, stress, and money. Best practice timing shows that between 45 - 60 days from the event is the best time to order your basic supplies such as the groundbreaking shovels - especially if these will have customized printing; personalized ribbons and banners, displays, giant ceremonial scissors, and other items. This frees your time to concentrate on other details such as press releases, guest list, contacting local government officials to be present at the ceremony, and inviting the media. Remember some papers like The Cincinnati Enquirer, The Columbus Dispatch, The Dayton Daily News and The Akron Beacon receive a large number of requests for local coverage. Make media contact one of your first priorities. The Plain Dealer covers several cities and towns and it's a prestigious paper. Getting them onboard means you will have covered smaller cities such as Dayton, Lima, Akron, Springfield, and Toledo as well as the more metropolitan Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland.
