What happens when creative economic development marketing meets some of the brightest minds in corporate real estate and site selection? At the 2026 IAMC Fall Forum in Columbus, Ohio, Fairview, Texas, found a fun way to get the conversation rolling. Literally!
The Fairview Economic Development Corporation (EDC) sponsored IAMC’s popular Get Some Help! session, an interactive program where corporate real estate executives, site selection professionals, economic developers, and industry experts share ideas and tackle real-world challenges.
But this wasn’t your typical conference sponsorship.
The team at Day One Experts, led by “Super” Dave Quinn, CEcD, developed a creative sponsorship featuring throwable foam microphone cubes branded with Fairview’s Getting Neighborly podcast. As microphones flew across the room, the Fairview brand became part of the conversation.
Special thanks to John Wickman and James Chavez for their outstanding work moderating a session that consistently brings together great minds and practical industry insights.
Why Getting Neighborly?
Getting Neighborly is the official community podcast of Fairview, Texas, sharing the stories of local entrepreneurs, business owners, community leaders, and neighbors who make Fairview a special place to live, work, and grow.
For Fairview EDC, this sponsorship was about more than putting a logo in front of people. It was about building relationships, creating memorable experiences, and introducing national corporate real estate leaders to the people and opportunities that make Fairview unique.
It’s also an example of how Day One Experts helps communities think beyond traditional economic development marketing to create meaningful connections with the audiences that matter.
