HEALTH & WELLNESS

Sclothapy What is Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is an effective medical procedure to treat supercial spider veins - especially on legs. A sclerosing agent is injected into the blood vessel. This causes damage to the blood vessel wall. The vein turns into scar tissue & gets reabsorbed by the body.

LoveLocal

A local media partner for local businesses, connecting them with local people.

In a world where people are bombarded with so much noise — marketing emails, ads, SMS, and an endless stream of content—we bring local service providers to residents to consider local purchasing before looking elsewhere. How? By expanding your brand reach within your local community with a three-pronged advertising and marketing solution that won’t cost you an arm and a leg. This strategy includes: QR-Codeshort-form videos, and high-quality print exposure.

We’re called local for a reason

Short-form video content

High-quality print exposure

People are no longer looking for high-quality, studioproduced ads, but rather relatable and authentic content. We create short, hard-hitting, low-cost, but high-quality video bites that generate better engagement between local businesses and local people. We then share them on our LoveLocal social media platforms, making the experience local people get from our advertisers, engaging and authentic, with content that resonates with them.

We have identified a significant gap in the advertising landscape: there is a lack of high-quality advertising mechanisms that encourage local residents to prioritize local businesses before considering purchases elsewhere. Unfortunately, the options available are not affordable for SMEs seeking to target local residents effectively.

QR Codes We take our readers online through the generation of client-specific QR-codes that appear on every ad. QRCodes are the way of the future and have seen more than 750% growth in use since the pandemic. Through the simple task of scanning a business’s own unique QR-Code, either on the hardcopy LoveLocal edition, or following the hyperlinks on the digital edition, customers will be able to access information, locations and products available at businesses in their immediate area that are dynamic and can be edited and updated by the business owner whenever they choose. You get to control what the link to the QR-code takes the customer to. Use them to: • Share directions to your business • Create a virtual business card that will add your details to their phone when they scan the QR Code • Grow your social media following • Share more information about a campaign or launch online by directing people to a specific landing page • Generate an email to your business by automatically including the receiving email address • Generate a click-to-call by adding your business’s phone number automatically, and so much more.

The bi-monthly LoveLocal printed publication, allows local businesses to promote their services in a cost-effective, high-quality paper publication. It is pretty much a summary of all the video content we shared on social media, but in print. • Format: A4 • Distribution: 5 000 copies • Frequency: Bi-Monthly The idea was born out of inspiration, combined with creativity to bring the first of its kind to you and local business owners—to link print media with online media in changing times, using the latest digital concept of dynamic QR codes.

Make It Happen

The rise of the QR code Bridge the gap between the online and offline worlds with QR codes.

Increase your brand awareness, generate more leads, and enhance customer engagement.

Did you know? With dynamic QR Codes, you can edit the QR Code data as many times as required and get access to scan analytics to better optimize your marketing campaigns. This mean you can place on QR code in the directory, but modify the content anytime, even after printing. E.g restaurants can update menu’s, businesses can display latest specials, etc. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased QR code usage in South Africa. According to a survey conducted by World Wide Worx in 2020, 52% of South African respondents reported having scanned a QR code in the past.

Businesses place these QR Codes in strategic locations and on products for consumers to scan using their smartphones and move them through the marketing funnel by giving consumers access to the right information at the right time.
