New Advertising Service Helps Triangle Businesses Generate Sales While Raising Money for Charities
20 Percent of Proceeds Will Go to Local Charities
Press Release (PressBurner) Aug 24, 2009 - RALEIGH, N.C. – Market Local is partnering with Triangle area establishments to launch a new service that will provide inexpensive local marketing for trades people and professionals in the area while raising money for charities at the same time.
Market Local helps promote local businesses by installing professional business card displays in stores and restaurants that have high customer volume.
“Our service replaces the eyesore cork boards in so many local businesses,” said Angela Wilson, Location Consultant with Market Local. “These displays contribute to the local economy by giving trades people and professionals a cheap forum for advertising that they won’t find elsewhere.”
They also help the community with 20 percent of the advertising proceeds from each display going directly to a local charity of the hosting establishment’s choosing.
The firm is currently recruiting local establishments to agree to install the displays in their location.
“Our objective is to provide a dynamic community focused advertising service that will, in these tough economic times, help local small businesses generate new sales and help local charitable organizations raise money,” Wilson said. “Best of all it is free for the business hosting a display, and we can arrange for them to receive the charitable contribution tax deduction.”
It’s a key partnership that can really help the Triangle area recover from the slow economy.
“A lot of retail and service businesses would love to give financial support to local charities but can’t afford to in this economy,” Wilson said. “Our service provides them with the ability to help without spending a cent out of their own pocket. It’s a winning situation for all involved”.
