The team already has a long track record of current and past projects throughout Portland, and this project will allow us to expand our current marketing efforts through additional pathways that will increase the overall number of projects locally but also provide ongoing materials for the City to use. Our basic package of information in Phase I includes a number of current activities:

* Development of materials (print and web) related to dispelling ecoroof myths and providing real examples of case studies with performance and cost data
* Targeted advertising and articles in trade-related publications aimed at key market leaders and project decision makers, including publications and other outreach activities targeting minority communities
* Further refinement of the Green Above Ground website (www.greenaboveground.com) to include project examples and information to possible ecoroof clients
* Tours to showcase built work and address roofing, design, structural, installation and maintenance activities
