Free promotion, marketing and support for your small business
Lancs Local is a small family business. We’ve launched, run and sold several small businesses, so have been through the tough times and the good times that running a small business entails. We are dedicated to supporting businesses to grow and reach new customers.
Running a small business is hard graft; we understand that and we are here for the trials, tribulations and celebrations. Lancs Local is here to help you spread the word about your unique business and to see you flourish.
With our ever growing customer base, social media plan of action and digital marketing skills, Lancs Local will increase your audience and promote you for free! We actively encourage partners to share videos and photos across social media with us to post, and can regularly update members with new offers and reminders to keep everyone engaged in your products and services.
What is Lancs Local?
Lancs Local is a Digital Card promoting local businesses to local residents. Members pay a small subscription of £24 per year or £2.99 monthly and have access to hundreds of carefully selected small businesses across Lancashire. Each small business we work with offers a discount or offer to Lancs Local members. In return they can take advantage of free promotion and business support.
Lancs Local businesses pay nothing to be involved – there are no hidden costs and it will remain free to businesses forever.
Social Media
Lancs Local has an active social media presence with a forward thinking plan of action to ensure that your business stays present in people’s minds. We need your help to do this by sharing regular videos and photos with us, especially of customers enjoying your product or service. We highly recommend adding occasional bonuses and deals to Lancs Local members to maintain loyalty and build a happy community around your service.
Membership Card
Lancs Local members receive a digital membership card which provides access to discounts with all of our business partners. The card can be used in person when in shops, as a screenshot via email or social media, or as a digital loyalty card for customers to collect stamps for your business.
Community
Lancs Local is a community above all else. It is a community of small businesses, a community of support, and a community of loyal customers all rolled into one! We encourage businesses to support one another through our facebook group which you will be invited to upon sign up, and we are always here to offer support, advice and encouragement.
