since I am the only marketing person, our stores come to me when the are presented with an opportunity (ie. advertising at local little league field or having an ad on a paper menu in a local diner, etc). Right now we don't do much of that type of "small/local advertising" and when we do its sporadic and we just do it as one of our store managers presents it to us as something they want to do.
My question is, is this type of small local advertising even worth it and how can we make it more systematic. We have several locations, so I was thinking of putting it in our marketing plan and say for example Store A gets $$ for local advertising/marketing this year. Store B gets $$$ for local and so on. Or should we just turn down all the small time local advertising opportunities and stick with the TV, radio, SEO, pay per click, etc?
