Once accepted to the program, you will receive a 10” x 10” Student Shop local window sticker (see sample at top) in the mail which must be affixed on your storefront window, door, or entryway.
Rewards: Your business will be:
- Posted on campus
- Listed on the Local Shop Discounts page on our website.
- Distributed at all major student orientation events
- Receive some priceless word of mouth as students (and staff) encourage their friends to visit your business.
The Students Shop Local program will be promoted among staff and students periodically through each school year on social media and through internal staff and student communications.
