You’ve found an abandoned bike in your yard: how do you reach out to your neighborhood to check if it belongs to someone nearby?

Your hairdressing salon in the local mall is out of bookings for the whole afternoon: how do you send out a message to people nearby that you have half-price special starting now?

City planning, police and other public authorities generate lots of information about local issues – but to keep up with that information flow as residents, we would need to follow dozens of different channels.
![Page 10: Nearhood - hyperlocal media for neighbourhoods](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081401/5594a7ba1a28ab05408b4634/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
For companies there’s a huge variety of digital channels in general and ways of segmenting customers based on age, profession, gender, etc.
But for a local business to reach out to local residents, many are still using old-fashioned print and direct marketing.

Marian Salzman
CEO, Euro RSCG Worldwide PR, North America
” I’ve come to believe, in fact, that ‘hyperlocal is the new global’ and am now more convinced than ever of the local movement’s momentum online. (…)
Going local is also a fantastic way for businesses to show not just consumers but also employees, friends and neighbors that they are invested in the community in which they live.”

” Combining social and community features from sites such as Reddit and Twitter with open government really has potential.”
