Northshore Holiday Cross-Promo: 50-Business Partnership Assembly

Date & Time: September 25, 2026 at 5:30 PM (Central Time)

Digital advertising costs across St. Tammany Parish spike by 40% during the fourth quarter. Stop burning money on Meta and Google ads—tap directly into the existing customer bases of 40 complementary Northshore businesses.

Whether you operate a retail boutique in downtown Covington, a medical spa in Mandeville, an artisanal bakery, or a specialized residential trade, your ideal local customers are already spending money weekly at non-competing storefronts right down the street.

Hosted by Northshore Business Collective, the Northshore Holiday Cross-Promo Summit is a curated working assembly convening 40 local business founders and operators inside the main event suite at The Collab Covington.

This is neither a lecture nor an aimless cocktail mixer. In two structured hours, you will sit at curated industry synergy tables, map out reciprocal promotions, and walk away with signed co-marketing agreements ready for Small Business Saturday, holiday gift guides, and December shopping traffic.

The 4 Dedicated Industry Synergy Hubs (10 Businesses Per Hub)

To ensure high-value discussions, seating is capped at 10 businesses per industry table:

• Hub A | Boutique Retail & Artisans: Specialty fashion, gift shops, jewelry, handcrafted home decor, and regional crafts.
• Hub B | Food, Dining & Specialty Gourmet: Artisan coffee roasters, bakeries, craft beverage makers, confectioners, and casual dining.
• Hub C | Health, Wellness & Aesthetics: Medical spas, dental aesthetics, chiropractic clinics, yoga/pilates studios, and salon owners.
• Hub D | Home, Living & Specialty Trades: Interior design studios, holiday lighting installers, custom cabinetry, residential trade specialists, and event florists.

Practical Cross-Promotions Built During the Evening:

The Reciprocal "Bounce-Back" Voucher: (Example: Customers spending $60+ at your boutique receive a $15 voucher toward a partner spa appointment, and vice versa).

The "Holiday Host" Collaboration Bundle: Florists, specialty bakeries, and tabletop decor shops combining complementary items into a unified "Thanksgiving Dinner Bundle" marketed to all three customer email lists.

The High-Ticket Home Prep Package: Home service specialists (window treatment + deep carpet cleaning + holiday lighting) assembling a one-stop home preparation checklist for St. Tammany homeowners.

Small Business Saturday Passport: Coordinated multi-location stamp cards driving foot traffic between neighboring stores during the critical November 28 weekend.
