It was brought to my attention late yesterday that many businesses have been visited by Mr. Jason Miller. For those of you who have not yet been visited by him, he is an advertising consultant with Direct Advertising Consultants out of Washington, MO. He is selling advertising for a magnetic white board, he is not a scam.

Although he is not a scam he does mention that he is working with the Chamber on this project, and that is not correct. Jason has only visited with me to inquire about a few of our local businesses. The Chamber does not receive any benefit to what he is doing. I was informed by him that I might receive a few of the magnets, but only what was left over, which may not be very many.

I apologize for any confusion this may have created. Again, please be aware that Jason is not working with the Chamber. Purchase advertising at your own discretion. If you have any questions regarding the matter please contact me.

Thank you,

Amber Zvolanek
Russell Area Chamber of Commerce
