WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT
We're local
We know Scarborough because we live here.
There's so much more to our town than just the seafront. We have tons of amazing independent retail, services and leisure businesses.
We'd like to share these gems with visitors and other residents - to help guide them towards small indie businesses, and off the beaten track.
We're INDEPENDENT
We're not affiliated with councils, tourism boards, media outlets, government quangos or any other businesses - so we don't have the same restrictions with who we can work with.
We don't favour the big companies, or seafront businesses, and we have no agenda - other than we want to shine a spotlight on our independents.
WE understand YOUR CHALLENGES
We've walked in your shoes.
Our team is made up of small business owners who know first hand what its like running a business in a tourist location.
So we know the daily, and seasonal challenges you face - and how to get people through your door.
WE know Scarborough's demographic
We know who visits Scarborough, as well as who lives locally.
We understand the best way to target locals as well as tourists, and that different strategies are needed for both. Our visitor guides aren't glossy, fancy lifestyle magazines - as that just isn't the type of holidaymakers we get. Instead they are packed full of useful info, discounts, and have a real value to the reader.
On & Offline marketing - we cover both
Printed guides backed up with a great online presence.
Our printed guides will be distributed among caravan parks, accommodation, attractions and tourist information spots, as well shops and residences.
These will be backed up with good quality online content - across search engines, social media, blogs and digital advertising.
By featuring in our guides, you'll also get online content and advertising for your business.
Great reach
Up to 50k guides printed and distributed.
Our online content is already reaching thousands of visitors looking for things to do in Scarborough. Check out our sister site scarboroughtours.com
Set up in Autumn 2023, it already has great SEO, online visibility and thousands of site visits.
We'll be using our websites to promote small businesses further - with blogs, specialist online guides, keyword targeting and database listings.
We'll also be promoting our guides and online content on social media - covering all bases.
That's not all we can do
We make advertising easy!
With over 20 years marketing experience, we can help your business get noticed - whether you're looking to target visitors before they set off, or gain a good local customer base, we know how to help.
We have in-house web and digital expertise, as well as design, print and advertising.
