Promoting A Positive Midwestern Narrative
As part of his 2012 MGA Chair’s agenda, Iowa Governor Terry Branstad is asked states to renew the Midwestern brand and actively promote a positive Midwestern narrative. Midwesterners have long considered the Midwest the best place to get an education, raise a family and grow a business, but collectively need to do more to share the strengths of the region with others. The goal of this effort was to create an image of the Midwest that positively market the region and highlights opportunities and economic success.
