The Blog:
We’ve been fed the same line for years: “Build it yourself. Be self-made. Hustle harder.”
And for what? Burnout? Bragging rights? A badge of exhaustion?
Let’s be real, doing it all alone isn’t noble, it’s often nonsense. If we want local businesses to stand a chance against big-budget brands and corporate marketing machines, we need to start building each other up instead of burning ourselves out.
That’s the heart of Live Local Warm Marketing: collaboration over competition. When entrepreneurs with shared values work together, their impact multiplies. The message gets louder. The community gets stronger. Everyone wins.

So this week, stop wearing the “I did it all myself” badge. Instead, try one of these ten practical ways to collaborate with another entrepreneur who shares your
values, and grow together.
10 Ways to Market Together
Swap Spotlights. Feature each other in a post, story, or video, and tell your audience why you respect their work.
Host a Joint Giveaway. Combine your products or services into one creative giveaway.
Create a Shared Event. A pop-up, workshop, or themed night, two businesses, one local mission.
Bundle Services. Offer a combined package that helps customers solve a bigger problem together.
Film a Mini-Series. Record short, fun videos where you discuss community or business topics.
Guest Blog or Newsletter Swap. Add fresh perspective for both of your audiences.
Co-Sponsor a Cause. Share the cost and the spotlight at a local charity event or fundraiser.
Teach Together. Host a free class or webinar combining your expertise, double the value, double the reach.
Trade Space. Display each other’s flyers, brochures, or business cards at your shops.
Shout Each Other Out Weekly. Make it a habit, one tag, one story, one post that lifts someone else up.
Because the truth is, your business doesn’t grow by shouting louder, it grows by linking arms. Together, local wins.
