About
We build the connective tissue of local economies
Founded in 2014, Community Marketing Programs works with main-street businesses, nonprofits, and civic coalitions to turn goodwill into growth.
Our story
We started as a two-person shop helping a single business district recover after a two-year construction closure. The playbook that came out of that work — deep local research, matched partnerships, and relentless follow-up — is still the core of every program we run today.
Twelve years later, we support more than 480 partners across four counties, and every one of them still gets a strategist who knows their street by name.
Local first
Every program starts with listening tours, not templates. We map the block before we map the budget.
Shared credit
Our partners own the relationships we help create. We build capacity, not dependency.
Honest numbers
We report what worked and what didn't, every month, in plain language.
