Do you want to advertise your business to thousands of Elmhurst residents? Well, you’re in the right place!
Small Business Spotlight
Our Hey Elmhurst! Small Business Spotlight includes a vertical short-form video, posted across all of our platforms (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube), a shoutout in our weekly email newsletter, and a few other things that we’ll share once you’re approved!
Our videos average 6,000–50,000+ views and our community is highly targeted: it’s 100% Elmhurst and the surrounding suburbs.
What past spotlighted businesses have experienced:
- After spotlighting one brand-new shop, a resident told us they found all their Christmas presents there
- A local business sold out of memberships entirely within a week of their spotlight going live
- A single spotlight for a not-yet-opened business doubled their follower count in just a few hours
- One business we spotlighted the night before opening and was packed the entire opening weekend
- A new to Elmhurst business saw a 35% increase in opening weekend sales compared to their previous location opening
Who am I?
I’m Amara, and I keep up on all things Elmhurst so you don’t have to! After creating over 15,000 videos for small businesses across the country through my agency MAVEN (where my fiancé Jeff and I travel all over the country to film for Realtors and small businesses), I decided it was time to do the same for our own town. And Hey Elmhurst! was born.
