About CMN

Dorset Marine Businesses are invited to become members of the Chesil Marine Network (CMN). The network has been formed in response to requests from Dorset-based marine companies who feel that local issues need to be raised in a clear, collective voice that will produce results.

The CMN is a self-governing body whose aim is to foster and support the development of marine enterprises. It will also act as a focal point for investment and funding initiatives, marketing, partnering activities and dissemination of important news and information to the community.

Full membership is open to all bona-fide marine companies and organisations located between Swanage and Lyme Regis and inland to the north Dorset border, and Associate Membership is open to other enterprises.

CMN will hold networking events where members can become actively involved in generating more business. CMN also has the support of Weymouth and Portland Borough Council through the Economic and Tourism Development sections.

Some of the benefits to Marine & Marine related Businesses in being a member of CMN in 2008.

All members on the 1st June 2008 will have a ½ half page listing promoting their business along with full contact details in the new CMN Members Directory. A full colour A5 publication which will be distributed from the Harbour Office, during MarineEx and by members.

A listing in the CMN marquee at MarineEx – as their entry in the directory prominently displayed on individual panels.

Members will be invited to show their products and literature in the marquee and an opportunity to invite your potential customers to meet you in the marquee on the quay. (maybe even refreshments will be available!)
N.B those volunteering for stand duty given priority.

CMN is promoted as a co-organiser on MarineEx promotional material and website. MarineEx is working on a promotional campaign with the Echo for Afloat & H20 Magazine. Also there is Press campaign to national magazines.

Regular Monthly meetings to air your views and network with other marine businesses.

Regular social events to get a good opportunity to meet members in a more relaxed atmosphere.

Joint projects – work with other members to gain business not possible on your own.

Revised members listing on the CMN website – as the extended printed directory listing.
