Dear Valued Business Owner:
The town of Queensbury is excited to announce our new partnership with CGI Communications, Inc. CGI
will be creating a series of professionally produced videos to highlight everything Queensbury has to offer
residents, visitors, and business owners.
With an easily viewable interface on the official www.queensbury.net website, our Video Tour will
encourage viewers to learn more about area attractions, quality of life, economic development opportunities,
and the businesses supporting the program. The Video Tour on our website will backlink to CGI's
www.elocallink.ty which hosts the videos.
Mobile devices have shifted the way people obtain their information making it more important than ever for
businesses to embrace technology. For many businesses, getting noticed online can be a challenge and
that is where this program presents an opportunity for you! Video dramatically improves visibility, increases
search engine optimization and drives more action to your website.
We are dedicated to highlighting the advantages of living and working in our town. We encourage you to
consider participating in this program as it provides an exciting opportunity to showcase your business.
