Economic Developers!

Recently, one of our communities received an RFI from a company that had been reading our newsletter for three years.

And when we say lead, we don't mean they visited our website, we mean that they contacted us to move their business to Texas.

Three years!!!!!

That's the reality of economic development. Companies don't make location decisions overnight. They research, compare, revisit, and build confidence over time.

That's why TexasEDConnection is built differently.

We don't just generate visibility.
We don't just deliver leads.

We continuously nurture relationships through consistent visibility, valuable content, and ongoing engagement until the timing is right.

Economic development isn't a sprint.

It's a marathon.

And we're prepared to run it for as long as it takes.

BIG NEWS FOR 2027!

TexasEDConnection is growing.

In 2027, we're expanding our partnerships and introducing additional targeted Industry outreach to give our partner communities even more opportunities to be seen by the people who matter most.

Business owners, manufacturers, developers, and site selectors begin their search online and in AI long before they make a phone call. Our goal is to make sure your community is visible throughout that journey.

More partnerships.
More targeted visibility.
More opportunities to tell your story.

Ready to maximize your community's visibility?

Get on my calendar today, and let's talk about how the newly expanded TexasEDConnection's 2027 program can help your community stand out where today's business attraction process begins.

The best business relationships don’t happen in boardrooms. They happen around tables.

This week, we celebrated two things at Day One Experts.

First, Super Jane’s seventh anniversary with our team. For seven years, she has faithfully served our clients and communities, helping turn big ideas into real results.

Second, we had the privilege of hosting friends from Taiwan for an authentic Texas barbecue experience at Hutchins BBQ.

We first met them during a 2024 trade mission led by the Texas Economic Development Connection and the Fairview Economic Development Corporation. Before returning home, we made a simple promise:

“The next time you’re in Texas, lunch is on us.”

This week, we were honored to keep that promise.

Moments like these remind us why Day One Experts exists.

Yes, we help communities attract investment.

Yes, we help organizations tell their story.

But our real business has always been building relationships that stand the test of time.

Projects begin with trust.

Trust begins with people.

Congratulations, Jane, on seven incredible years. And to our friends from Taiwan, thank you for allowing us to share a little Texas hospitality with you. We hope this is just the beginning of many more visits.

At Day One Experts, we believe relationships are always the first investment.
