Newcomers Need You.

Be the first in your industry to connect with new families moving into your backyard. These families are looking for local products and services but don't have brand awareness, brand loyalty, or word-of-mouth, so it's the perfect time to reach out andĀ introduce them to your business.

Stop burning time and money on advertising that gets ignored

  • Are your ideal clients scrolling past your posts on social media? 
  • Are the emails you're sending ending up in your client's junk folder?
  • Are the coupons you're mailing ending up in the trash can?
  • Are you unsure about how to best reach your ideal clients?

Now more than ever, you need an effective strategy to attract a consistent stream of new customers into your doors. Welcome BeLocal.

You Deserve an Ad Strategy That Turns Newcomers Into Lifelong Customers

Did you know? It's 10x easier for a local business to gain a new customer when they're moving! Why? Because these families are breaking old habits and creating new ones. This creates an extraordinary window of opportunity for our local businesses — but it doesn't stay open for long.

Right now, there are thousands of new families moving into the Austin Metro. As they work to settle into our community, they tend to feel overwhelmed by the dozens of choices they have to make for their new home and their family. Without having local word-of-mouth yet, they rely on BeLocal to find much-needed products and services from our local business community.

BeLocal sponsors have the first opportunity to connect with these new movers and turn them into customers for life.

An Essential Resource for New Movers

New movers spent more in the first 6 months than the following 3 years. Because they don't yet have word-of-mouth, they rely on BeLocal to discover the best our area has to offer.

A Valuable Opportunity for Local Business

Local businesses lose up to 20% of their client base each year simply because their customers move away. BeLocal puts our best local businesses in front of new movers when they need them most.
