And by "local" I mean it can be local to your area as well (and not just Louisiana since many that frequent here are from outside Sportsman Paradise).

For this exercise, no regional or national companies allowed.

I'll start.

Lit Pizza BR

Active on Facebook. And responsive, which I believe matters just as much, if not more. Demonstration videos. And solicits feedback.

7,583 people follow them.

Solid, in my opinion.

Others?

Varsity Sports. Giving away those T-Shirts was ridiculously genius to start. But they also have a great online presence.

The Rouge Collection

They've found a way to spread their message through the folks that despise them the most. It is ingenious.

Joystick Gamebar in Atlanta does a good job. Has a lot of events.

I send all my patients there. I'd say probably 1/3 of them come back for their next visit wearing the t-shirt

You can rarely go out in public in BR without seeing at least a few. It gets the name out, but they also deliver. They know what they're doing and their customer service is excellent. "Sure. Take our shoes out for a run before you even purchase them." Makes you feel really confident in the products you're getting.

The Brew-Haha owner. She has all but cornered the BR cakeball market. Social Media is her primary advertising/marketing avenue.


She also is a vendor at most of the decent sized road races in BR. But this is about Social Media Presence.

Good one. And just before Facebook blew up around 07 they were very active into email groups and people following their calendar on the Store Website.
Hosting a free running club with her level of expertise and coaching(as well as other elite runners/triathletes in the group) was mostly altruistic but definitely helped market the store.


Jenni and her crew were on top of creating an e-community before Facebook made it so easy.
