SouthSoundTalk Helps Businesses Advertise Their Brands Through Community Content

SouthSoundTalk began from a simple idea — that positive stories can shape the landscape of a community, informing residents and influencing decision-making in a geographic area. This idea took shape in the form of SouthSoundTalk’s online community social network, sharing stories about where people live, work and play.

Of course, a major part of any community is the commerce that defines it. People spend their dollars every day on products and services, entertainment and excursions, nourishment and non-profit giving.

But how are these spending decisions made? Often, people rely on word-of-mouth recommendations or the reputation of a business in the community. Through authentic content marketing and advertising directly to Pierce County decision makers, SouthSoundTalk offers a way for businesses to help shape their brands and images in the community.

Share Your Story

Through featured business articles, crafted by a talented team of writers who live in the communities they write about, SouthSoundTalk offers businesses a way to share their stories with a wider audience. Articles can highlight specific products, services and events, but can do much more.

Businesses shape their brands by telling stories about the people behind their products. How was a business started? What are your core values? How do you give back to the community? When people understand who makes a business thrive, they are more likely to spend dollars supporting a community member they learned about through an article.

SouthSoundTalk offers an affordable way to advertise your business, through custom content created for you.

SouthSoundTalk’s content is published exclusively online. Articles are shared through a wide distribution network utilizing multiple social media platforms.
