Promote Your Business on LKN Savings

Use of the internet continues to grow rapidly, and, in particular, the effectiveness of the internet as a channel to increase in-store traffic is proven. 92% of consumers research online, but 95% of retail sales still take place in the store1. 85% of online shoppers have used the internet for local shopping, not an online purchase. That is why it is important for businesses to have an internet presence, even when they don't sell their products or offer services online.

At LKN Savings, our goal is to save consumers time and money and to increase in-store traffic to local businesses in the Lake Norman Area. We provide residents and visitors to the local community easily accessible information that helps them save money while shopping in the local area.  At the same time, we provide local businesses an effective promotional venue; customers are specifically looking for shopping, dinning and service options when they visit the site. 

If your business does not have an internet presence, listing on LKN Savings will make you "google-able." If your business has a website, your LKN Savings listing will help direct traffic to your site and improve your search-engine results. Moreover, unlike print ads, your LKN Savings listing is continuously available to visitors of the site and can be updated or modified at any time.

A key part of our mission is to support local businesses. We encourage consumers to "Buy Local" and are partners with the Lake Norman Chamber in their Buy Local Campaign, as well as active contributors to a number of community organizations. We keep our rates as low as possible in order to make the promotional opportunities on LKN Savings accessible to the small, independently-owned businesses that are so important to our community.

LKN Savings.com currently gets over 22,000 visits per month by local consumers who are specifically seeking information on area events, sales and discounts. In addition, we reach over 6,100 customers weekly through our "Top Picks" email distribution. Moreover, roughly 5,000 - 8,000 viewers tune-in to our weekly TV show, Mi-Community Connection, that runs 5 days a week and we have partnerships with a number of publications and community groups. Finally, we are active on Facebook (almost 500 fans), Twitter (over 1,500 followers), and YouTube. Bottom line, LKNSavings.com is the best value around for promoting your business.

Print Ads

We have partnered with Executive Savings Magazine to offer our clients a print advertising option at a discounted rate. Because of its unique distribution strategy, we believe that Executive Savings Magazine is the best option for businesses who advertise in coupon-based publications. Unlike most publications that are mailed or dropped in residential mailboxes -- together with a ton of junk mail -- Executive Savings Magazine is hand-delivered to offices and employment campuses in Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, and Mooresville. Ads, therefore, are readily available during regular business hours when most people are likely to make calls or restaurant reservations, for example.

Pricing – LKN Savings clients get a 50% discount on all ad sizes. Call 704-895-1927 for details.
