Local Marketing Made Simple
thebestof Eastbourne continues to grow its audience across multiple channels, giving local businesses access to people they may struggle to reach on their own.
Rather than managing everything separately, members use one platform to share offers, events, updates, expertise and reviews, creating multiple ways for potential customers to find and engage with them.
It’s a simple partnership.
The focus is on building the audience and creating opportunities, while members make the most of that visibility by staying active and relevant on the platform.
This is not about being one of hundreds of listings.
Categories are kept to a small number of trusted local businesses, giving each one a genuine opportunity to be seen.
That means:
Members benefit from:
Understanding what works is just as important as being visible.
thebestof Eastbourne tracks what local people are engaging with, from seasonal trends and popular events to the types of content getting attention.
This insight helps members make informed decisions about what to promote and when, reducing the guesswork from local marketing.
Networking events such as our popular Business Boost bring together business owners, directors and decision-makers from across Eastbourne.
These are informal by design, encouraging genuine conversations and helping businesses build relationships, share ideas and create opportunities for collaboration and referrals.
Over time, this builds a wider network that supports ongoing visibility through word of mouth as well as online activity.
Membership is designed to be accessible and flexible.
Entry-level options start from £40 + VAT per month, offering a practical way for new and emerging businesses to establish a presence.
The most popular option is £129 + VAT per month, providing greater visibility alongside more direct marketing support.
Silver, Gold and Platinum members also benefit from direct access to support and guidance (subject to availability), helping them make the most of the platform and the opportunities available.
