“Our association has always been an integral part of the community here in Thurston County, WA. The problem for us, though, was that people rarely heard about it. The difference now is that all this great news is reported on by ThurstonTalk,” said Jerry Wilkins, President of Thurston County Realtor Association.
“I can connect dollars spent to real results,” said Jacque Stahl of Olympia Orthopaedics Associates. “This is a powerful tool when making marketing budget decisions.”
Talk platforms generate stories from within each community, using a unique integrated branding platform, embedding community business advertising within the stories. The Talk brand interfaces with its community, directly reaching 350,000 unique viewers a week.
“It knits the fabric of my community tighter around me,” said subscriber Kelli S.
A team of professional editors works with writers in each community to curate and showcase the most essential features, sports stories, profiles, events and programs. In contrast to traditional media, local businesses advertise their brand directly within their communities utilizing content marketing and technology unique to the Talk platform.
“The positive upbeat articles that you publish make a difference in the lives of others and bring a sense of hope and peace to our community,” said reader Larry Weber. “It is so refreshing to hear the many things that go right in our community rather than the few things that go wrong. You should know that you are making a difference on a daily basis.”
