A growing number of Canadians are cancelling planned trips to the United States and choosing to vacation locally amid the ongoing trade war between the two countries.
Acadia Broadcasting, a Maritime-based radio broadcaster, has launched Staycation Atlantic, a new campaign meant to help local businesses and festivals promote their offerings while making it easier for residents to plan upcoming vacations in the region.
“Uncertainty surrounding tariffs has placed added stress on local businesses, particularly heading into the busy summer tourism season,” said Chris Pearson, president of Acadia Broadcasting. “We pride ourselves on our strong community focus, and giving businesses a central place for their offerings to be seen is one way we can help during this challenging time.”
As a business owner in Atlantic Canada, you can purchase a digital display ad that links back to your website or social media channels. It could be experiences, hotel packages, destinations, restaurants or festivals — anything that would help Atlantic Canadians build their staycation.
Staycation Atlantic will be featured on Acadia Broadcasting’s 10 radio station websites, which receive over one million impressions each month. In addition, your business will be talked about by 36 radio announcers throughout the day, giving you significant reach across multiple platforms — all for just $350 plus HST per month for a six-month commitment.
“There are so many things to do and places to explore throughout our region. We hope Atlantic Staycation will encourage residents to do just that while also giving exposure to our many wonderful Atlantic Canadian businesses,” said Shelley Snodgrass, vice-president of sales at Acadia Broadcasting. “By supporting these local businesses, you help keep Atlantic Canadians employed and contribute to the region’s economy at a crucial time.”
