ORA Strategic Partnership & Marketing Program
Our "at a glance" packet allows you to plan in advance, allocate your marketing budget more effectively, and pay from one invoice.

The Oklahoma Restaurant Association has developed a Strategic Partnership and Marketing Program, specifically with our Allied Members in mind. This program provides an "at a glance" review of all of the ORA's marketing opportunities for the year. It gives interested partners the chance to plan in advance, allocate their marketing budget more effectively and, if desired, pay from one invoice instead of being billed for each opportunity as it arises.

Each event, meeting, publication and educational opportunity is featured, along with a description of the opportunity, its objective, the designated marketing contribution and the return on investment to be obtained by the Strategic Partner. The program offers special Title Partnerships and new opportunities. Many enhancements have been made to existing programs, too. ORA's program offers an opportunity for any size marketing budget.

Additionally, Key Club partnerships have been established to further enhance the recognition and return on investment for partners who are marketing at a prominent level of $10,000 and above per calendar year.

This exciting program offers many opportunities, and we would be happy to help you identify those that would best suit your marketing objectives. Please contact Patti Colley at (405) 942-8181 ext. 229 or (800) 375-8181 ext. 229 with any questions!
