GO LOCAL & SPEND $20 on the 20TH PROMOTION 10/22/2014 - 12/20/2015

Wed, 22 Oct 2014 14:06:45 GMT

GO LOCAL &
SPEND $20 on the 20th PROMOTION

The Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce and the Jefferson County Economic Development Oversight Committee recently introduced a campaign to encourage county residents to shop at local companies. Go Local Jefferson includes social media, public relations, advertising, and more. One element of the campaign is the "Spend $20 on the 20th" promotion, and I want to invite you to participate.

Each month the Chamber and EDOC will use social media and advertising to reach out to residents and ask them to visit local businesses on the 20th. This will be an excellent opportunity for you to offer specials or discounts to further encourage locals to patronize your business. You can highlight your offers on the Go Local Jefferson Facebook page and in The Standard Banner.

A special advertising section will appear in The Standard Banner several days before the 20th of each month. Members of The Standard Banner staff will be contacting Jefferson County businesses soon about this advertising opportunity. If you would like to reserve your space now please contact Shane Cook at scook@standardbanner.com.

Thank you for all you do to make Jefferson County a great place to live, work, play, and shop!

GO LOCAL & Spend $20 on the 20th "PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR HEART IS!" 3/20/2015 ALL DAY - 3/20/2015

Spend $20 on 20th promotion inside
The Standard Banner ...

PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR IS!

Friday, March 20, 2015

http://www.golocaljefferson.com/

As part of the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce “Go Local” campaign, the current Standard Banner newspaper contains special advertisements promoting spending $20 on the 20th with local merchants.

The ads – on Pages 6-7A of The Standard Banner – urge residents to spend at least $20 they might otherwise spend out of county on March 20, supporting local businesses and helping the county’s tax base.

* If all 19,573 Jefferson County households spent an additional $20 locally, the Chamber calculates that the result would be $391,460 in local economic activity each month. On an annual basis, those sales would generate nearly $130,000 in additional sales taxes.
