  The ShopLocal Overview
 

ShopLocal opened its doors in 1999. Five years later, the company was acquired by three leading U.S. media companies - Gannett Company, Knight Ridder (now part of McClatchy) and Tribune - and became ShopLocal.

Today, ShopLocal is the leader in multi-channel shopping services, offering a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to help advertisers leverage the power of the Web to drive online and in-store sales. ShopLocal.com is the leading multi-channel marketplace, offering a platform to deliver your online and in-store offers at one convenient site. You can connect consumers with your local promotions at your site with SmartCircular and all over the Web with SmartMedia interactive, rich media banner ads.

There's a revolution going on out there. It's a revolution driven by consumer demand. Consider this: While 92% of consumers research products online,¹ 95% of retail sales happen in the store.² It's a trend that's been reflected in research and reported by our customers again and again. The answer is clear: You simply must harness the power of the Web to drive in-store sales. And ShopLocal is focused on helping you do just that.

ShopLocal is uniquely qualified. With decades of experience in leveraging information, technology and media for competitive advantage, we can help you reach millions of highly motivated consumers. It's no wonder that many of the country's largest retailers rely on ShopLocal to help them reach local customers on the Web. What are you waiting for?
