Social media is increasingly becoming a large part of how consumers are making purchase and entertainment decisions. People depend on and trust the recommendations of their friend network. The average Facebook user spends 40 minutes on the service per day. More than $400 million has been spent on advertising on social media networks. On CherryBuzz your business listing is like a mini-website where you can offer photos, videos, services, menus, and much more. But most importantly, the listing is connected to your social media channels. So visitors researching their options in beautiful Northern Michigan will be able to find you quickly on Facebook, Twitter, and elsewhere.

Listing your business on CherryBuzz is a no-brainer. It’s the place you want to be to ensure that you’re on equal footing with your competition. But it’s also an effective and very affordable method of online advertising and promotion.

You have two options for a business listing:

• FREE
  You can post your business here for free. That’s right, absolutely free. But, that listing only allows you to post your basic businss information like address, service category, and business name. The people who use CherryBuzz to help locate businesses and services, or plan their vacation, will find very little information about your business.
• PREMIUM
  Post your business and add lots of details, contact information, and links to your website, etc. With a Premium listing (choose between $50 for six months or $100 for a year) you can link to your website, Facebook page, Twitter account, LinkedIn account, and other social media channels. You can upload photos and even upload video! Do you have a menu? Upload it. Have a product sheet or brochure? Upload that too. With all of the information right here at CherryBuzz, visitors to the site see your business popping off their Map and coming to life. Let’s face it, it’s hard to get visitors to an individual business web site, but when you’re listed on CherryBuzz, it’s like being in a mall or on the corner of a busy intersection downtown – you benefit from all the traffic passing by. Most importantly, your business is indexed on our site and included in the Google Map layout. Place your business in the appropriate category, write a catchy description, and add keywords and voila! visitors to CheryBuzz will find you.

Get Started
Create an account and then Add a Place or Add an Event (Free!). Keep in mind that your paid listing runs for 6 months ($50 or less than 30 cents per day) or a full year ($100).

Be featured
When you’re checking out with your business listing you can choose whether to have your listing featured on the home page of your service category (more traffic) or on the home page itself (even more traffic). Pay just a little more to get enhanced exposure.

Advertise
We’re also accepting a limited number of advertising partners. Contact CherryBuzz for information.

It’s accessible in two easy ways: park on the north side east of the Marina near the boat launch, or better yet (and more readily available when busy) park in the City Lots on the south side of Grandview Parkway and take the tunnel under Grandview Parkway to get to Clinch. If you’re staying downtown it’s a short walk from the Park Place Hotel or the parking garage on State Street.

You’ll find more families and children at Clinch than at any other beach located in the city limits. There is a kayak and bike rental shop in Clinch Park that also has a concession stand with some drinks, ice cream, and snack foods. Public bathrooms are located there, as well.
