Shop local shaming
When we take a step back and look at the situation as well as the perceptions of others, it can allow for a more engaging messaging in the advertising that can invite and market that many more people to local shopping.
On the other side of it, focusing only shop local shaming style campaigns and using a yell, tell, sell and insulting vibe is not drawing people in, it is pushing them away.
Moving the methodology and strategy of small business messaging to a place of authenticity, humility and respectful engagement can bring greater results.
