Every Local Business Has a Story Worth Knowing.
We tell the stories behind local businesses across the community — and use those stories to help local charities and nonprofits get seen, too.
THE BIG IDEA
Local Marketing With a Bigger Impact.
Your customers don’t just buy what you sell. They connect with who you are, why you started and the difference you’re making in the community.
Digital Universe turns that story into a Local Hero Story and shares it across our network of screens in local establishments.
And your story helps another one get told.
THE 2-FOR-1 STORY MODEL
Let Us Tell Your Story — And We’ll Help You Tell Someone Else’s.
For $497/month, Digital Universe creates and features your Founder or Local Hero Story across the network.
Then we donate a second story placement to a local charity or nonprofit in your business’s name.
That organization gets visibility it may not otherwise be able to afford, while your business is recognized for helping make the story possible.
Recognition example:
“This Local Hero Story is made possible by [Business Name].”
One marketing investment. Two local stories told.
WHAT WE ACTUALLY TELL
Not Another Ad. A Story People Remember.
We’re not interested in creating another generic “buy from us” commercial.
We uncover the story worth telling — why you started, what you believe, who you serve, what makes your business different and the impact you want to make locally.
Then we turn that into content designed to make the people in your community know you, remember you and have a reason to care
FOR HOST LOCATIONS
Turn Your Space Into a Local Storyteller.
Restaurants, cafés, salons, gyms, waiting rooms and other community establishments can become host locations for the Digital Universe Local Hero Network.
Instead of filling your space with generic advertising, your screen becomes a place where customers discover the founders, businesses, charities and people doing meaningful things in the community around them.
WHY HOST
Bring the Community Into Your Space.
- Give customers something local and meaningful to discover.
- Support businesses and organizations in your community.
- Become part of a growing network of establishments telling local stories.
- Add engaging screen content without having to create it yourself.
THE NETWORK EFFECT
Local Businesses Supporting Local Heroes.
The bigger the network becomes, the more local stories we can tell.
Businesses gain visibility. Host locations become community connectors. Charities and nonprofits gain access to storytelling space. And customers discover more reasons to support the people and organizations around them.
That’s what we want Digital Universe to put on screens across the community.
Your Story Could Help Another Local Hero Be Seen.
Let us tell your story — and help you tell someone else’s.
