How it works

Running your Colorado Springs–Pueblo campaign from Rapid City

Every channel in these plans is bought digitally, so the campaign runs the same whether the person managing it is down the street or 380 miles away. Search ads show to people in your ZIP codes who are looking for what you sell. Geofencing draws a fence around a place and reaches the phones that pass through it. Streaming TV and pre-roll video reach households in the market on the screens they already watch.

Local radio isn't part of plans here: we buy radio only near Rapid City, through Haugo Broadcasting. For audio, streaming audio reaches Colorado Springs–Pueblo listeners on Spotify, Pandora and podcasts.

Do you have an office in Colorado Springs–Pueblo?
No. Local Advertising & Marketing plans and runs every campaign from Rapid City, South Dakota, by phone, email and video call. Every channel in these Colorado Springs–Pueblo plans is bought digitally and targeted to this market's ZIP codes, a radius around your location, or the whole market, so being on the ground isn't what makes it work. You deal with one specialist who manages the whole budget.
Can you run radio ads in Colorado Springs–Pueblo?
Not through us. We buy local radio only within about 150 miles of Rapid City, through Haugo Broadcasting (where Jarrett also works as an Account Executive), and Colorado Springs–Pueblo is about 380 miles away. The planner leaves radio out here on geography alone. If you want audio, streaming audio on Spotify, Pandora and podcasts can target this market.
Can I target just my town instead of the whole Colorado Springs–Pueblo market?
Yes. The calculator lets you pick a Local (about 25 miles), Area (about 60 miles) or Region (about 120 miles) audience around your address, or the whole market. Smaller areas cost less to reach often enough, so the same budget buys more frequency close to home.
