Welcome!
Although large businesses may be able to weather the storm during an economic downturn, it can be a more difficult time for smaller businesses.
For this reason, a San Diego marketing agency, SBMS Media is announcing the launch of a 12-month campaign they are dubbing #SanDiegoSpotlight. 🎉
According to the U.S. Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy in a document released in 2020, there are 31.7 million small businesses in the U.S., and 19% (or 6 million) people, are employed by those businesses.
The “San Diego Spotlight” campaign aims to gain exposure for those privately owned micro-companies (under 10 employees), start-ups, and other small businesses that need help boosting their sales revenue.
“We have found that most entrepreneurs are brilliant in their career role and passionate about their products or services; that is why they opened their business.
However, they don’t necessarily know how to market their services or really know how to earn business in a volume that will support them financially.
Then they reach out to marketing agencies who want to charge $5,000 – $10,000 for services. That is simply not affordable for most micro-businesses” stated Nicole Crocker, owner of SBMS Media.
Businesses that are selected to be the San Diego Spotlight of the week will receive social recognition on various platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and LinkedIn.
They will also receive a free audit of their current marketing efforts with actionable items they can take on their own to build their business, as well as a press release sharing their products and services to the local community.
The total value of marketing exposure is estimated at $1,195 per San Diego Spotlight winner.
