2 ABOUT CERC The Canadian Employee Relocation Council (CERC) is a membership organization with over 600 members across Canada, the United States, and internationally. Their goal is to provide leadership and assistance to their members, thus enabling them to effectively serve relocated families by addressing issues that impact workforce mobility, both domestically and internationally. CERC has a clearly defined vision of the future and is guided by an important set of values. Through programs, publications, and services, CERC is able to provide a forum for corporations and service organizations to effectively communicate and provide a more efficient and cost-effective relocation. The relocation industry directly contributes over $2.5 billion to Canada s economy, and employs thousands of people across many diverse industry groups. CERC membership represents organizations and government departments that handle almost half of the 130,000 employer-sponsored relocations in Canada each year, at a value of more than $1.3 billion. Labour shortages, relocation issues, and talent concerns impact virtually every occupation group and industry. CERC is a trusted source of information, research, and education: whether you re making relocation decisions for your organization or providing relocation services to your clients, membership in CERC will provide your organization with a definite business advantage. CONSIDER THIS Recent studies show that custom publishing surpasses print, television, and radio advertising, as well as dominating Internet marketing and telemarketing, in building long-term relationships, promoting loyalty, and retaining existing members. Magazines engage viewers in a manner that is strategically unlike any other form of advertising media. On average, a reader will revisit a magazine at least three times and will likely put it on display, allowing the marketing message to grab and hold the reader s attention. In our fast-paced, media-saturated world, magazine advertising is a reliable way to provide consumers with a satisfactory, leisurely, and intimate experience. With 73% of magazine readers saving ads for future reference, it is clear that we provide an active, tactile medium, where the reader is receptive and in full control. INTERESTING FACT: 98 % of CERC members plan to renew their membership, would recommend CERC to other organizations, and are satisfied with service levels. 2 / 7
