Making the Most of Holiday Marketing

You can reach more audiences when you collaborate with us! StayLocal is here to amplify the Shop Local message. Let us know about special events, promotions, and/or sales you're hosting and we'll help spread the word via our established audiences on our social media channels and by getting the attention of traditional media outlets, too.

Supporting local businesses isn’t just a feel-good gesture—it’s a powerful way consumers boost our community. When your business puts out an effective call to action that resonates with consumers, such as this Say No Thanks to Amazon Gifts campaign does, they are more likely to remember that yours is a local business, increasing your following and business loyalty.
