Why ParTicipate?
Businesses: Get involved in the Love Local Revy Campaign and reap the benefits with minimal effort on your part. By participating, you'll join a town-wide movement to bolster community support while effortlessly increasing your business visibility. You'll attract more customers and boost sales without breaking a sweat.
Customers: Your support for local businesses not only offers a chance to win enticing prize packs but also strengthens our community. Our towns’ pride and commitment to their local institutions is one of the things that makes Revelstoke what it is, and we want to celebrate that.
HOW IT WORKS
IT’S SIMPLE!
Eligible Businesses with a physical storefront register with us to receive their Participation Package, which includes a ballot box, ballots, and promotional materials to advertise their involvement.
Customers make a purchase at participating businesses and enter a ballot at the point of purchase to be entered into a draw for a chance to win one of six prize packs valued at $500 each!
At the end of each campaign, we will collect the ballots and announce the winners shortly afterwards. Businesses will hold onto their Participation Packages, including the Ballot Box, to facilitate the simple ‘activation’ of future campaigns.
CAMPAIGN TIMINGS
We're planning for three phases of the campaign throughout the year. Two of which will be during each of our Shoulder Seasons, the Spring and Fall. These phases of the campaign have the potential to coincide with the Chambers’ Ambassador Program events, as well as Welcome Week, increasing our reach and shopper participation.
The third phase will be dependent on the needs of the community. By setting up the campaign to be activated at any time, we can quickly provide additional support for local businesses during these times of need. Think of those really smoky days in the summer, or perhaps we’ll want to give consumers a little extra incentive to buy Holiday gifts locally, rather than online.
Promotion
Keep an eye out around town for our branded window decals and other display signage. We’ll be spreading the word on the ground through our Visitor Centre, print ads, and radio spots, whilst also promoting online through Social Media ads and by increasing our visibility in Google Search results.

Instructions for Customers
The Campaign Overview will be a copy of this step by step guide to the campaign, so you have one at hand. You’ll be pleased to hear though that it’s all very straightforward, as we’ve done most of the groundwork and promotion already.
During this first stage, prior to the launch, all you need to do is share the information with your staff, then display the decals, stickers and posters to begin advertising your own involvement in the campaign.
STEP 3: The Campaign Period
During the campaign period, simply place the Ballots, Ballot Box and ‘Instructions for Customers’ flyer at your point of sale, allowing for easy access when customers complete transactions.
The Instructions/FAQs for Staff and Instructions for Customers documents we’ll provide will assist in the already simple process for customers to enter the draw.
Should you have any issues, your box is getting full, or you need more ballots, you may contact us during our office hours.
Step 4: After the Campaign
Once the Campaign period comes to a close, you may remove the Ballot Boxes and Ballots from your point of sale. We will come and collect the Ballots, but you’ll hold onto the Box and promotional materials in preparation for the next Campaign…
STEP 5: THE FUTURE of Love Local Revy
By holding onto the materials, we’ll all be better prepared to launch our next Love Local Revy Campaign at a moments notice! Prior to launching the next Campaign, we will contact all previously participating business to announce the dates, and confirm their involvement. Then, we’ll repeat steps 2 - 4!
