Process

How It Works

Our simple, cost-share process makes local advertising affordable and effective

Collaborative Flyer

Each season, we coordinate a large 9x12" flyer featuring ads from up to 16 local businesses. Each with their own dedicated ad space.

Claim Your Spot

Select your ad size (2x3", 4x3", or 4x6"). We enforce an industry non-compete, so you will never be featured alongside direct competitors.

Affordable Advertising

Thanks to our cost-share model, you split the design, print & mailing costs with other businesses. Choose from three ad sizes — $200, $350 or $500.

We Handle The Design

Already have your ad ready? Perfect. Need one made? We'll design it for you. You approve the final version before anything goes to print.

Printed & Shipped to 5K+

The flyer is professionally printed & delivered through Canada Post to over 5,000 local homes in your area. Fully handled by our team.

Your Brand, On The Map

Your ad, straight into the hands of your local audience. Build recognition, boost visibility & drive interest to your business.

Seasonal Promo

With each print run, we feature a $100 gift card giveaway from one of the businesses involved — awarded to a randomly selected follower. To enter, locals just need to follow us on our social media. This built-in promo makes each card more engaging & memorable than regular mail.
