In December 2010, the Outlaw Partners offered a marketing
program to local businesses that have suffered hardship,
or start-up companies who are in need of marketing services.
The marketing grants provided opportunities to apply for
assistance, funding and related support. Over a dozen businesses
applied and interviewed for the program, each seeking a
variety of marketing services.
To date, Outlaw Partners has given away over $30,000 in
marketing grants and services related to this program — ranging
from online business directory listings and advertorials, to
videos, email campaigns, branding, logo designs and Big Sky
Weekly advertising.
“The response has been great,” said Danielle Chamberlain,
Account Manager at Outlaw Partners. “We’ve been able to
help many companies in need and jumpstart their long-term
marketing programs.”
Outlaw Partners is a full-service marketing, website, video
production and media company based in Big Sky. Since October,
2010 they’ve published the Big Sky Weekly newspaper
and the bi-annual Mountain Outlaw magazine, in addition to
launching the online media resource ExploreBigSky.com.
“Our goal with the marketing grant program was to open a
forum for local businesses to explore ways to better market
themselves, and to provide resources for them to do so,” said
Megan Paulson, Outlaw Partners COO. “Above and beyond
the grant, a lot of businesses don’t realize there are many
unique and effective ways to market without spending a lot.”
Another opportunity co-sponsored by Outlaw Partners, Big
Sky Town Center and Rotherham Construction is the Town
Center Business Stimulus Grant, which will provide commercial
space in Town Center and free marketing for one year. Applications
for this grant close on June 15. Visit theoutlawpartners.com for the Town Center Marketing Grant application.
