ABOUT ESTES PARK.COM
The "Enjoy Estes Park" is a FREE web site donated to ALL businesses in Estes Park by Outdoor Eyes to help promote and market your business as well as promote the town of Estes Park. The "Enjoy Estes Park" web site offers your business powerful marketing management and marketing tools to present your business to the visitors & residents of Estes Park. Imagine... visitors planning on visiting Estes Park/RMNP are able to take a tour of Estes Park/RMNP to plan on what they intend on seeing/doing BEFORE and DURING their visit. I have been an entrepreneur for 40 years (starting numerous companies) and have taken my business marketing experience and incorporated my knowledge into this web site. I created a web site with marketing tools that I would like to have if I owned a business in Estes Park. This is my way of giving back to the Estes Park Community. I hope you use all the features available to help make your business prosper. Here are some of the features available for your business.
YOUR BUSINESS IMAGE IS RANDOMLY DISPLAYED ON EACH PAGE:
As visitors to the web site view each page, your business image is randomly seen at the bottom of each web site page. If a visitor is searching for a particular type of business, the visitor can use the "Select A Category" selection list. The visitor can search for categories such as breakfast restaurants, lunch restaurants, dinner restaurants, lodging, gift shops and any other type of business that they are interested in. A complete list of all business images will appear in the category selected. A visitor can also use the Select A Member Pull-Down Selection List if they already know the name of a business member. When a visitor wants to learn about your business, a quick click to your image displays an overview of your business. (explained below)
CUSTOM DESIGN YOUR SPECIALS AND EVENTS FOR THE CALENDARS:
There are 2 types of calendars available for the visitors: a specials calendar and an event calendar. You have a powerful business design center to post in the daily calendar for all type of specials (birthdays, discounts, sales, special seasonal menus, free offers, promotions, etc.) or events (bond park, children, cultural, dancing, educational, fair grounds, festival, music concerts, outdoor activities, etc.) For instance, visitors can view all the special sales or all the special menus at a restaurant for a specific day. If you custom design a coupon (shown below), your coupon will appear on that day. There are numerous types of coupons that you can custom design for the visitors. Each web site page displays a random post for both the specials calendar and the event calendar. (shown below)
The calendar includes additional information of each post. Each post could contain (optional):
XTRA button, when clicked, displays a custom style sheet about your promotion (explained below).
ABOUT button, when clicked, display a profile of your business (explained below).
EMAIL button, when clicked, allows a visitor to contact you by email.
COUPON button, when clicked, displays the coupon that you have created to complement the promotion for that day.
CUSTOM DESIGN YOUR SPECIALS AND EVENTS COUPONS:
You have many types of coupons that you can custom design (birthdays, discounts, $ amount coupons, etc.) Your coupon will have an expiration date and can have stipulations attached to the coupon. The birthday coupon can have the requirement that it must be used on the person's birthday, the week of the birthday or the month of the birthday. The coupon will have the person's name printed on the coupon. Here are a couple of examples shown below:

GIFT CERTIFICATES:
Gift certificates (optional) can be sold to the visitors. The sale of the gift certificate by credit or debit card is authenticated, approved (by PayPal) and the money goes directly into your bank account. There are 2 types of gift certificates that you can sell. The first type of gift certificate is a dollar to dollar gift certificate. If a person purchases a $50.00 gift certificate, the buyer will receive a $50.00 gift certificate. The second type of gift certificate is a bonus gift certificate. If a person purchases a $50.00 gift certificate, the buyer will receive a percentage increase ($50.00 purchase might be a $60.00 gift certificate - a 20% bonus). The bonus gift certificate is custom designed by you. The samples are shown below:
YOUR BUSINESS PROFILE (WHAT THE VISITOR CAN SEE):
