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
