Jaco's business leaders

Jaco Business Leaders

InCostaRica is seeking a partnership with Jaco’s most aggressive business leaders in 3 categories to promote Costa Rica, with a special focus on Jaco and their businesses.

This is a first come first serve scenario. Those with the initiative to promote their area and their business will be selected.

We feel we must aggressively target and drive customers to not only Jaco but to businesses that are willing to lead the way.  5 businesses in each of 3 sectors will enjoy the fruits of this labor.

All development costs of this campaign will be covered by InCostaRica and InJaco.  This includes content creation, video editing, graphics design and translation services.   The funds contributed by the participants ($375) will only be used for outreach and paid promotion of content through social media and print media services.  This is the total cost of the campaign to complete the outreach and paid promotion of the content.

Logistically we feel it is more important to reward those that act first as opposed to try to limit participation in any other way.   Those that make the choice to help themselves and build their communities deserve the recognition.

This campaign engages all forms of communication possible to raise awareness of our companies and our communities.  This includes digital as well as print articles and paid social media campaigns.   Outreach using H.A.R.O (Help A Reporter Out)will be used for print publications and press releases.

We have a structured approach to our outreach that will provide results to our participants both within the first 30 days as well as throughout the 24 month long campaign.  Taking place over the next two years the participating businesses will be promoted at every mention of Jaco in the outreach efforts of InCostaRica and the child campaign of InJaco

You will have access to all content created for the campaign for your specific business.  This includes video clips, graphics and articles your business is featured in.  This allows you to promote yourself individually through your outreach in addition to reaping the benefits of the full campaign.
