What Is ORCA Local?



From the same highly successful ORCA Websites team, the ORCA Local franchise enables you to start and run your own internet business helping local businesses promote themselves to local people.

Orca Local Franchise



 

Everyone has a close affinity with their local town and their local community, but if local people do not spend with local businesses, that means less revenue is injected in to the local economy. The vast majority of local businesses survive and thrive on referrals,  word of mouth and advertising campaigns within their local area. When times get hard, as they currently are, the first thing they do is abandon their advertising spend (particularly in the local papers) in order to cut costs.

Your role as an ORCA Local franchisee is to work with local business owners to arrange exclusive offers that they are
willing to make available only to ORCA Local website members and ORCA Local Key Card holders.

As more people visit your ORCA Local website and register as subscribers, or register their ORCA Local Key Cards, they opt-in to receive regular emails from you about the latest offers your clients are advertising on your ORCA Local
site.

Orca Local Keycard

The Key Card is simply a plastic card that attaches to a key ring. Key Card holders are then able to claim the exclusive offers that your clients (local businesses) are promoting on your ORCA Local site and to make life even easier, your clients display the ORCA Local Key Card window sticker to ensure that Key Card holders know which businesses are participating.

 People still spend in recessions, they just become more bargain conscious and more prudent about what they buy. And
where is the best place to find bargains? The internet!

Why Does It Work



 

Although the majority of local business owners are aware of the internet and even use it in their personal lives, they simply haven’t incorporated it in to their business lives. Dramatic as it sounds, the internet is the future of business and those not using it effectively are fighting a losing battle.
