Whether it’s developing homegrown community partnerships or accumulating word-of-mouth buzz around the neighborhood, a localized advertising and marketing strategy makes a difference – even if executed from a distance. Culture’s shift to digital-centric brand experiences means that geography is no longer a barrier to entry for consumer engagement.
