I’m already on Facebook and Instagram. Why do I need this?
You probably feel the same way, but we find Social media is getting more and more exhausting. The Explore Local App is a popularity-test-free zone designed specifically for Southern Alberta. It's a level playing field where locals and visitors can find you.Our budget is super tight right now.
We get it, which is exactly why we built this to be budget-friendly. To help out, we have a 25% off intro offer running right now (just use the code APP25), and we are completely waiving the $97 setup fee.I literally do not have the time to set up another platform.
Good! You focus on your business, and we’ll handle the tech. Just email us your logo and a few photos. We’ll build your listing, and send it over for your approval before it goes live. Most of our clients love what we did!Can I run promotions or promote my events?
We highly encourage it! We have a dedicated "Perks" section and a community calendar. You can also opt for a push notification, that little "Ding!" on their phone, to announce a flash sale or upcoming event instantly.How do I get the absolute most out of being on the app?
The businesses that see the most success usually do these three things:Offer an "App-Only" perk: Give users a fun, exclusive reason to stop by and show you the app on their phone. Example: "Drop by, show this on your phone and get $1 OFF your first coffee".
Keep your events updated: Make sure your events are added to our calendar.
Use Push Notifications: Send a strategic alert when you need a quick boost in foot traffic or sign ups!
Sounds great. How do I get listed?
Just send us a message! We love featuring new local businesses. Let's get you on the map.
