Local Advertising

"SHOP LOCAL!"
---This is a phrase I'm beginning to hear
more and more on the radio and on television.

The community of Oshkosh is growing and so are the small business!
Downtown Oshkosh is spending and increasing amount of money on advertising their small businesses and encouraging this city to "shop local." Stores such as Dainty Daisies, Art City Signs, & Oshkosh Good Girl Tattoo & Piercings have been putting their advertisements in the local papers, on television, radio, Facebook, Twitter, flyers, and have used many other outlets to get their name out there and build up some business.


What else does Oshkosh do to advertise locally?

• Oshkosh has also held an annual style show put on by the Women's Division of Oshkosh where small business located mostly downtown can showcase their small shops and encourage members of the community to stop and visit!
• Small "etsy" shops not only in Oshkosh but the rest of the Fox Valley join together once a year for "Handmade for the Holidays" where local shops gather at Becket's restaurant and set up their tables of handmade items that they advertise and sell to customers! It's a great way to showcase their talents and sell their one-of-a-kind items!
• Gallery walk is also something that's been around for a few years. Facebook is becoming one of their biggest forms of advertisement and it's becoming an increasingly larger event that brings members of the Fox Valley downtown to shop and visit small stores up and down Main Street.
