KnowledgeExplain your actions, position, priorities so that consumers
understand why sustainability matters to you; don’t preach,
teach or admonish
PracticalityConsumers are pragmatists and need a reason to believe;
don’t make sustainability a tradeoff problem for consumers
FaithProvide evidence that choosing you will have an impact;
don’t put the responsibility on the consumer for making a
difference

Address Barriers: Make it easy
![Page 13: Marketing Local Food · Digital Marketing Social Media • Instagram • Facebook Website • Content • Keywords/SEO Newsletter • Building a customer list • Mailchimp is free](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042301/5ecbf8bbccab2254e82be814/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1) Communicate in a way that resonates with
them: regularly and consistently
2) Be connected to them through multiple
marketing channels: regularly and consistently
3) Utilize community resources: regularly and
consistently.
Once you know WHO your customer
is, HOW do you reach them?

ONE ThingWhat is the ONE thing you want your
customers to know or remember about
your business?
Creating Content that SticksGetting clear about what you want to share about your biz
![Page 15: Marketing Local Food · Digital Marketing Social Media • Instagram • Facebook Website • Content • Keywords/SEO Newsletter • Building a customer list • Mailchimp is free](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042301/5ecbf8bbccab2254e82be814/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Boilerplate Language: • Tagline
• Elevator Speech
• The One-Pager/Paragraph
Creating Content that SticksGetting clear about what you want to share about your biz
![Page 16: Marketing Local Food · Digital Marketing Social Media • Instagram • Facebook Website • Content • Keywords/SEO Newsletter • Building a customer list • Mailchimp is free](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042301/5ecbf8bbccab2254e82be814/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Catch-All• Developing a list of “types” of content you
want to share
• Use on social media, blogs, newsletters, etc.
Don’t assume your customers know
ANYTHING about your business, your values,
the benefits of your practices, etc. TELL them!
Then tell them again

Social Media• Facebook and Instagram are king in NW WA.
• Many businesses post to Instagram, and share
it to Facebook for ease
• Times of day to post: ~8:00am, ~11:30am,
~4:00-5:00pm, ~8:00pm for optimum viewing
• Photo focused posts (obviously on IG, but FB
too!), links to events/web links have a weaker
algorithm
• Create/prepare content in batches for more
efficiency and day-to-day ease (can use
hootsuite, social pilot or others)
• Use hashtags on Instagram
