Verizon Now in Carpinteria ~ Grand Opening Event Was a Hit!

September 16, 2011   /   by phoneandwireless   /   in Mobile Phones, Verizon Wireless

We had a great turnout at the Grand Opening celebration of our new Carpinteria location, including a group of Carpinteria Chamber of Commerce members. We were especially honored to have City Councilwoman Kathleen Reddington with us. The group that arrived first really brought attention to the celebration, and soon, many passersby came in to check us out, too.

Lucky for them, after the ribbon cutting there was a complimentary lunch, prizes like LG hats and coolers, and Santana concert tickets from K-TYDE 99.9. Local DJ Lin Aubuchon did a great job telling listeners all about our new location in Carp and why they would be crazy not to visit us soon.

Best of all, individuals that activated a new phone during the event received $35 in credits on their Verizon Wireless bill, and everyone who attended the event was able to register to win a free smartphone (drawing to be held September 30th).

One of the most talked about topics of the day was, of course, the launch of Verizon’s 4G LTE Network in Santa Barbara County. Visitors were able to learn more about the launch and demo the great 4G devices that are available now.

Our hope is that residents of Carpinteria, Montecito and Summerland will quit driving into Santa Barbara to do their Verizon Wireless business. Our educated staff is excited to give them the quick, convenient and friendly customer service they deserve. A great big THANK YOU to all of those who planned and participated in our successful event!
