For Merchants
The window decal
There are many advantages to becoming a “Buy Nearby” participating merchant. For a nominal annual fee you’ll be able to participate in a variety of events and be eligible to be a part of the “Buy Nearby” coupon book. Your business will have a listing on our website and have access to professionally designed promotional items that you can use in your advertising.
It’s also a great way to get the word out that you and your business are committed to the community.
We are just starting the “Buy Nearby” program and expect to have enough members to launch the campaign shortly.
Who can be a windward “Buy Nearby” business?
- Is your business located in Kailua, Kaneohe, Waimanalo or surrounding rural areas?
- Is your business registered in Hawaii, with no corporate or national headquarters outside of the islands?
- Do you have control over the look and name of your business?
- Can you make your own decisions regarding your business such as what you purchase and how you operate?
- Do the business owners who have a controlling interest (owning more than 50% of the business) live on Oahu?
If you answered yes to these questions, then you and your business can become a “Buy Nearby” member. Please contact Cindy@IBuyNearby.com for information on how to become a part of this valuable marketing opportunity.
