Home Upgrade education & outreach in select cities

The Energy Network is running a special promotional campaign for Home Upgrade in three cities: Culver City, Palmdale, and Santa Clarita. The goal is 100 homes upgraded or in process in each city. We're also doing additional outreach with interested cities across LA County.

How we're promoting (and some samples!):

Free publicity you can get:

 

Every upgrade you complete in these cities counts toward the 100 home goal. So, with your homeowner's permission, we can publicize your projects:

  • with the city in their newsletters and eblasts
  • in the local newspapers and broadcast media
  • in local social media

Target these cities NOW to take advantage of these extra promotional activities!
