Checklocal gives businesses the tools to publish Organic Marketing – A cost-effective way to build brand awareness, generate new leads, boost sales and grow your digital presence online.
For people searching online, Checklocal offers an easy way for people to check local products, services, sales and specials available in their local area, district or New Zealand wide.
This is where small Kiwi businesses lose out to larger companies, chain stores and online retailers who dominate Google search results.
These small businesses are often overlooked because they are not investing in digital advertising or growing their online presence. When people search for local products and servcies they’re not getting found so people aren’t aware of what their business offers.
Organic marketing makes digital advertising affordable for all small businesses and is a great way to grow your business presence online.
