Be the business everybody already knows.

We place free community boards inside high-traffic local businesses across the Upstate — restaurants, coffee shops, gyms, waiting rooms. Six local businesses share the bottom of each one, and your ad sits in front of every person who walks through the door, every day, for a full year.

The simple truth

Anybody can have a great business. If nobody knows it, you still don't make sales.

Exposure is the whole game. The more people who know your name and what you do, the more sales you make. It really is that simple, and it is the one thing we prioritize for you — all year, for one price.

Here is the gap we saw. People are moving to the Upstate constantly, and that brings a wave of new businesses right along with them. But there is a real disconnect between the folks who already live here, the ones just arriving, and the businesses trying to reach both. Somebody who moved here in March has no idea you exist, and they are going to pick a dentist this month whether they have met you or not.

So we put you where people already are — grabbing lunch, waiting on a coffee, sitting through an oil change. Ordinary places, every single day. It costs less than direct mail and a fraction of a billboard, and it puts you in front of thousands of people a month for one flat price.

How it works

One board, six neighbors.

One

We place the board free of charge

A local business gets a 24″ × 36″ custom dry-erase board at no charge. They write their specials, their events, and anything they want new customers to know that day. It usually sits on a stand just inside the front door, so everyone sees it walking in.

Two

You take one of six slots

We design your ad and print it into the board itself. Three premium slots sit on the top row and three standard slots on the row below. Both rows land in front of thousands of people a month, all year long.

Three

It works for an entire year

No bidding, no daily budget, no algorithm. Your ad is on that board every hour the business is open, in front of every person who walks through the door.

Who takes the slots

Six trades per board. Never two of the same.

When you take the HVAC slot on a board, that board has one HVAC company on it, and it is you. No competitor can buy the space beside you for the length of your contract.

Why it beats the alternatives

You are not renting clicks. You are renting the room.

Against social ads

A scroll is a reflex. People swipe past your ad before it finishes loading, and the second you stop paying, you vanish completely. A board cannot be scrolled, skipped, blocked, or muted. It is a physical object standing in a room somebody is already in.

Against billboards

A driver gives a billboard about two seconds at forty miles an hour, and you will pay more for one month of a decent board than you pay us for a whole year. Our audience is standing at a counter or sitting in a chair with nothing else to look at.

Against direct mail

Mail gets carried from the box to the trash can. Nobody in the history of the Upstate has taped a postcard up for twelve months. Your slot stays up until we take it down.

Against search ads

Search only finds you after somebody already decided they need a roofer. We put you in their head before the roof leaks, so when it does, you are the name they already recognize.

Against nothing at all

Word of mouth is the best advertising there is, and it is also the slowest. This is word of mouth with a printing press behind it — the same trusted local room, just reaching everyone in it instead of one person at a time.

Lock it down

Own one board, or own the whole market.

We are rolling out board by board. Early advertisers get to decide how much of the map they want before somebody else does.

Board exclusivity, standard on every slot

One business per trade, per board. Your competitor is not sitting next to you, above you, or anywhere on the same piece of wood. This is not an upgrade you buy — it comes with every slot we sell.

Multi-board, pick your rooms

Take the same slot across several businesses at once and you show up across a whole side of town instead of one front door. Volume pricing applies, and you choose the locations.

Territory, the whole market

Lock your trade across every board we run in a market. When we hit ten or fifteen boards in Greenville, you are on all of them — and no other company in your category can be on any of them.

Boards we have not built yet

A territory holds as we grow. Every new board that goes up inside your market carries your slot automatically for the length of the agreement, at no extra cost per board.

What it costs

One price. One year. No surprises.

Ad design is included, there is no setup fee, and nothing renews without a conversation first.

About us

Our business is everybody's business.

The name started as a joke and turned out to be the honest description. We are nosy about local business in the best way. We want to know who just opened on Main, who took over the shop on Wade Hampton, who has been quietly doing great work off a back road in Easley for eighteen years without a sign.

The Upstate is full of businesses like that, and most of them are terrible at telling anybody. Meanwhile the region keeps growing. New families, new transplants, new neighbors who have no idea you exist and are going to pick somebody this month whether they have met you or not.

We are not trying to sell you a funnel or a dashboard or a report full of numbers that do not mean anything. We put your name in front of thousands of potential customers who walk past that board, and we leave it there for an entire year. That is the whole thing.

Every board also carries a local nonprofit across the bottom banner, free of charge, because a board that only sells things is not really a community board.

— Everybody's Business, Upstate SC
Host businesses

Want a board for your place? It's free.

You get the board and the stand at no cost, and the top two thirds is yours — specials, events, hours, a welcome message, anything you want new customers to know that day, rewritten as often as you like. Restaurants, coffee shops, gyms, salons, waiting rooms, auto shops — if people come through your front door, a board fits.

We ask for two things: a spot near your entrance where people will see it, and a year.
