Psa 1—new business in Braham

PIE-adise Marketing offers on-line shopping
 

PIE-adise Marketing started as a new business during the height of the Braham Boy’s Basketball Season success in February 2005.  The Braham Area Chamber of Commerce and the Alternate Learning Program (ALP) joined forces to establish an on-line marketing business to promote Braham and to give students in the ALP entrepreneurial experience.

It was a successful start up plan.  Students developed a name, some graphics, and the mission statement, elected officers and began working on product development.  However as in many businesses, directions and objectives change and evolve.  PIE-adise is now in full operation under the auspices of the Chamber, which will continue to seek ways for student involvement outside of school hours.

PIE-adise Marketing is a for-profit marketing business managed by the Braham Area Chamber of Commerce.    Members sell items on the web site, making it possible for shoppers from around the world to purchase gifts connected with Braham.  Examples include: Pie Day dishtowels, aprons, flags and collectors edition ceramic pie plates and crocks.  The chamber also lists the Braham History book by Phyllis Londgren and its new coffee blend called, “Coffee, pie and I.”

Shoppers can check out the inventory at www.pie-adise.com to make purchases.
