JustLocal™

Think global, act local 

OVERVIEW

JustLocal is a fantastic way for you as a consumer, to find local businesses and businesses which service your area.

No longer do you have to spend time repeatedly entering search criteria to find a business.

All businesses are presented right there in front of you, in a convenient graphical format.

You now have TRUE one click convenience.

One click access to the website of a participating business from your local post code page.

What could be simpler!

Every participating business has a web page or website.

This provides you with more information, and helps you find the products and services of interest to you.

With the high cost of fuel, buying local, or having businesses come to you simply makes sense.

You may wish to consider the following

It costs roughly 20 cents per kilometre as you drive around the city just for petrol. Not including wear and tear on your car, or your time.

Next time you drive somewhere to purchase an item, note how far the trip is. You will be quite surprised. That short trip to the shopping centre will cost a few dollars, and that trip across town, you get the picture.

Buying local makes sense.

If you have items delivered perhaps think about purchasing items together with family or neighbours and splitting the shipping cost. This way the additional cost to get what you want becomes insignificant.

You save money and time when you buy from JustLocal advertisers.

JustLocal returns the control to you the consumer.

It has never been so easy to find businesses in your area, or businesses to deliver products and services to you.

JustLocal is now in the top 1% of websites worldwide.

BUSINESSES ACT NOW - DON'T MISS OUT

Only two similar businesses can
advertise in a single post code area.
(For network marketing organisations only
one representative from each group
can advertise in a single post code area.)

Advertising rates

There are two adveritising rates when participating in JustLocal.

1. A rate if you just want to advertise.
2. A lower rate for those who look for ways to help other JustLocal friends.

To obtain the lower rate we ask JustLocal friends to do the following:

1. Provide a link to the JustLocal page they advertise
2. To look for opportunities to use other's businesseswhen is it practical and appropriate to do so. We call these the three R's of JustLocal.
   
   Reciprocal trade.
   Reciprocal referrals.
   Reciprocal assistance.
   

For businesses, JustLocal offers a revolutionary approach to promoting your business, and the opportunity to generate income from JustLocal.

JustLocal as an investment opportunity and not an expense like other services.

JustLocal to our knowledge is the first and only advertising service offering the opportunity to earn significant referral rewards, and the ability to transfer leasing rights with the profit going to you.

Each of these fantastic opportunities for businesses is explained in more detail below.

But before we go any further, we want to point out a few of the features of JustLocal which means participating in JustLocal requires no real decision. What we offer is so good you can't lose.

Go on, get involved. We know you won't regret it.

JustLocal offers a money back guarantee like no other

Most advertisers only care about getting your money. Once they have your money whether you make money or not does matter to them. They have done their job which is to get you to part with your hard earned money.

JustLocal takes a different approach. If you don't make money we don't make money. We call that being fair.

We are so confident of the power of JustLocal, we offer a money back guarantee (less any referral reward which has been paid).

If you have not recovered your advertising fee either by sales, rewards or value we provide your business, let us know 30 days before the end of your lease. If we can't then generate your advertising fee we will happily refund your advertising fee less any referral reward already paid.

You will understand and appreciate that in the unlikely event a refund is paid, you will not be able to apply to advertise on JustLocal for a period of three years.

With JustLocal you simply can't lose.

JustLocal is the only advertising service to take the risk out of advertising.

Our aim is to keep advertising fees low and affordable for even the smallest micro business.

What makes JustLocal different?

• Your choice of straight advertising or chipping in to reduce your advertising cost.
  

• The JustLocal money back guarantee means you cannot lose. There is no risk in advertising on JustLocal. 
  

• Our website presentation is like no other. It is simple and that is the beauty of it for advertisers and consumers. 

• Consumers are now one click away from your business using their local post code page. 

• We limit the number of advertisers in an area to a maximum of 190, but typically there will be 100-150 businesses participating in each area. That means your advertising dollar is not diluted as it is in other media, and in fact it becomes more valuable over time. 

• If you have a business where customers come to your physical premises, no longer will your advertising be dwarfed by businesses with bigger budgets that are outside your post code, or in an adjoining post code area. 

• We limit the number of similar businesses in an area to two and one for network marketing businesses. This rewards those businesses who get in quick and recognise the incredible opportunity being presented by JustLocal. 

• Advertising with JustLocal offers incredible value for money. Year long advertising for the equivalent of a small advertisement in a single edition of a newspaper. 

• JustLocal will increase your business presence in the search engines, increasing the potential for business from the Internet, whilst making it easier for your customers to find you. 

• With JustLocal we will help you put your business on the Internet using very low cost approaches we have developed over the years, instead of the excessively high priced approaches promoted by others. 

• JustLocal has set aside 5% of the advertising space to support the local community at no cost. Businesses participating in JustLocal can now support their community in ways never before possible. 

• You retain full control over your content. This keeps your costs down and your information is the latest information you provide.

Join us in this exciting new opportunity. Take advantage of all it has to offer.

Referral rewards

We have not one, but two very generous referral reward programmes. It is your choice. A once or amount, or an ongoing passive income stream.

1. Once off referral reward - A once off referral reward available to anyone who refers a business and has them sign up at the time of referral.

The amount is 20% of the lease amount for a lot for a single year excluding GST.

2. Passive income referral reward - An ongoing passive income referral reward available to VPS members and has them sign up at the time of referral.

The amount is 15% of the lease amount for a lot for the first year and 7.5% of the lease amount for all future years, whilst the business remains advertising on JustLocal (excluding GST).

The referral reward is our way of saying thank you for helping us to build JustLocal.

The ongoing passive income stream referral reward we see as our way to give others an ongoing reward for their support of JustLocal. You invest time and energy into helping us grow and we believe if we continue to gain from your efforts then so should you.

All amounts exclude GST. Tax is the responsibility of the person receiving the referral reward. Referral rewards are paid to the individual. You may wish to seek advice from your accountant.

JustLocal is more like an asset than an expense

We have created an entirely new concept in advertising.

We lease an advertising lot to your business.

You however have the right to transfer the lease to the highest bidder subject to our approval.

The money you raise is yours. (A small fee is payable by the new advertiser to update the details on the service.)

One day we believe businesses will be selling their lease for hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. That is money you will receive. We look forward to that day.
