Sponsor the Weekly Things to Do in Sussex County Guide
Every Friday, Sussex County plans its weekend with us. Your business can present the guide.
The weekly Things to Do carousel is one of Sussex County Explorer's most-saved, most-shared posts. It's a hand-picked roundup of events, markets, festivals and happenings across the county, and it averages over 13,000 views per post on Instagram alone.
Each week, one local business can present it.
Sponsoring the guide puts your business in front of a hyperlocal audience at the moment they're deciding where to go and what to do. It's a simple, affordable way to show up in your community and support a free resource your neighbors rely on.
What's Included:
A dedicated sponsor slide with your logo, a short message, and where to find you, posted to both Instagram and Facebook with 6,000 local followers
A tag and mention in the post caption
A Friday story share with a link to your page (or website - your choice!)
One sponsor per week, so you're the only business featured
Why It Works:
13,000+ average views per post on Instagram alone
A local, engaged audience; people in and around Sussex County use this post to plan their weekends
High swipe-through rates; people tend to read the whole post, so your slide gets seen
High save and share rates; your spot keeps getting seen all weekend, not just on Friday
How Can My Business Use This?
Promote an upcoming event. Hosting a tasting, workshop, sale or open house? Put it in front of thousands of locals right as they're making plans. Reserve the Friday of your event for biggest impact.
Get your name out there. New to the area, or want more people to know you exist? Show up in the post people use to plan their weekend.
Share news. A grand opening, new menu, new location, extended hours, or a seasonal launch.
Run a special offer. Share a discount code or a "mention this post" deal, and you can track exactly how many customers came from your sponsorship.
Drive traffic to a link. Send people to your website, booking page, ticket sales or online shop with a link sticker on the Friday story shares
Hire. Looking for seasonal or local staff? Reach people who live nearby.
