Habits change, platforms evolve, and new platforms come into existence. All of this influences how people use and react to social media marketing, as well as how small businesses are able to reach their audience. It is more important than ever before for small businesses to understand and stay ahead of the curve when it comes to social media.
ShopBayofQuinte is trying to bring the communities together in a digital ecosystem. There is no cost for everyone to join. We have always and will continue to offer a free business profile to every side hustle, home based business, small business, non profit and local municipal partner in our region. During the pandemic we are offering a COVID19 designated newsfeed, and a free value package to all in the Quinte and Central Hastings region. (That is a $50/month value for free.) It allows small business to obtain an e-commerce platform, e gift certificates and email for free. Every business is able to set up themselves and can be operational in minutes not days or weeks.
