This month we came back to the bistro/cafe inside the Courtyard by Marriott in Cocoa Beach. We like to show them how much extra business the free charging stations they have in their parking lot attracts by having some of our meetings there. That’s one of the main ideas behind our monthly meetups. Not only do we get to meet any new members and talk electric vehicle tech, we also get to show local businesses the growing number of electric vehicles that are waiting to charge up while parked and spend money at their business. Each month we meet at a different location with charging stations so contact us to get added to the email list or check our upcoming events page. Not only will installing a charging station at your business attract extra EV-driving customers, but it will also increase the time we stay there. This normally turns into extra sales or in the case of a restaurant, a dessert or extra coffee. Read more about the different types of charging stations and reasons to install them at your business on our charging station info page.
We are starting our planning for this year’s National Drive Electric Week event in Satellite Beach so make sure to register to attend or volunteer to help and most of all tell your friends! We are going to try to get well over 50 electric vehicles this year or as close to 100 as possible. We have almost 100 EVs just in our group alone!
