What better way to celebrate 10 years of community-powered marketing than with a freshly roasted batch of coffee? Ilsa Loeser, Lyndsie Blakely, Alexandra Veatch and Ronda Gentry took a trip to Dark Hollow Micro Roasters in Draper, VA, to roast a special Letterpress 10th Birthday batch — because great ideas (and great marketing) always start with good coffee. ☕✨ #LetterpressCommunications https://lnkd.in/e6V9Renk

Marketing doesn’t have to be a mystery — just ask the entrepreneurs who recently completed our small business marketing workshop series hosted by the Danville Office of Economic Development & Tourism! Since the series wrapped up, Alexandra Veatch and Jennifer Kinne have been meeting one-on-one with participants to help them build on what they learned and apply it directly to their businesses. We’re proud to partner on programs that empower small business owners and strengthen community connections. 👏 Big congratulations to the 16 incredible grads — we can’t wait to see what you do next! #CommunityPowered #Marketing #LetterpressCommunications

Last week Alexandra Veatch and Jennifer Kinne unpacked the latest on the state of social media and rapid change at the Southern Virginia Procurement & Business Resource Summit, hosted by the Danville Office of Economic Development & Tourism. We talked about how fast things move — but also about the power of slowing down to create marketing that actually works for the people it's meant to serve. It was a joy to reconnect with longtime partners and small businesses we've collaborated with over the years — and just as energizing to meet new folks like Jonathan Mitchell, a talented photographer with a heart for rural communities. His lens captured these great shots! 📷 Jonathan Mitchell #CommunityPowered #Marketing #LetterpressCommunications

Lyndsie Blakely and Jessica Broaddus joined Monday’s Farmville Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon to hear from our friends Donna and Jon VanCleave, owners of WFLO Radio, as they shared more about their latest venture: Farmville NOW. When the idea for a centralized community calendar started taking shape, Donna and Jon turned to someone who shared their vision — our founder, Ilsa Loeser. Together, they brought Farmville NOW to life: a platform built to help Farmville residents find, share and celebrate what’s happening right here at home. It’s local. It’s collaborative. And it’s exactly the kind of project we’re proud to support! 👉 Give Farmville NOW a follow and stay connected! #CommunityPowered #Marketing #LetterpressCommunications

As a Farmville-based agency, we’re always excited to see good news from our region—and this one hits close to home. Shoutout to one of our economic development clients, GO Virginia Region 3, AND the incredible work of Virginia Main Street!
There’s nothing like a beautiful Main Street! Downtown Farmville was recently featured in a blog post from Virginia Main Street about the impact of the facade improvement grant program. #GoVARegion3 #EconomicDevelopment https://lnkd.in/gU-dNEyQ

📱 Facebook update alert! Have you noticed a new tab on your mobile app? Facebook has brought back the Friends feed — giving users the option to filter out pages and recommended content in favor of real-life connections. It’s a small change with a big impact on how people experience the platform. Here’s the breakdown: ✅ Home feed = Business pages + recommended content ✅ Friends feed = Just your people For businesses and organizations, this makes it even more important to create content that connects — because your posts won’t appear in the Friends feed. 🎥 Check out our social media manager’s quick screen grab to see the Friends vs. Home feeds in action. Then send us a message! We can help you create content that’s community-powered and thumb-stopping. #CommunityPowered #Marketing #LetterpressCommunications
