Most offline marketing by necessity must be done in your local area in order for it to prove efficient. So in this respect you will find it beneficial if you make yourself much more of a local face as possible without you making everybody sick of seeing you. Getting your picture in the local paper regularly is one way to do this. However; make sure that you are not getting your face in the paper with a headline that says “Local busy body sticks their nose in other people’s business”, it won’t prove as positive.
When it comes to being a face in your community, it isn’t something that you need to work hard to achieve. Of course people are more likely to think of your company when they need it if they see your name or face regularly. But what is important is that they not only associate your name but also your face with positive things and as long as you are not a pompous idiot then this won’t be difficult to achieve.
When you want to get involved at a local level- it usually means doing things like raising awareness about matters of public safety and health. However if you are constantly writing about the state of children in your area then you are boardering on being a pompous idiot. In fact, it will pay off more if you are willing to take on the role of helpful and interested citizen. Without actually thinking why, most people will tend to gravitate towards a business that they can make positive associations with. Also; getting involved at a local level needn’t cost you anything at all. However if you are willing to contribute towards some local charity this won’t do you any harm either.
