Venice, FL area · Only 5 boards this season
A free specials board for your business.
A 24×36 board with your logo on top and room for your daily specials. Six local sponsors pay for the bottom, so it costs you nothing for a full year.
No cost. No contract until you've seen the board in person.
So what's the catch?
There isn't one. Here's who's behind it.
Hi, my name is Finn. I'm almost 12 and I wanted to start my own business with my dad, so I could save money for some personal goals I have. We design and create the boards, find local businesses to fill the ad spots and keep everything running for the year.
The sponsors pay for the board, so it's completely free to you. You get a custom board for your specials, it supports other local businesses here in Venice, and I get to learn how to run a business.

For local advertisers
Your business on the wall where locals already wait.
Each board hangs inside a busy local spot, in front of the same regulars week after week. Your ad borrows the trust they already have in that business.
One plumber, one realtor, one dentist. No competitor next to you.
A full-color ad spot. Six per board, printed and installed by us.
Monthly foot traffic past each board, reported by the host business.
Under $1.65 a day for twelve months on the wall.
Questions
Does the host business really pay nothing?
Yes. The six sponsors cover the cost of the board. Hosts sign a simple agreement to keep it up for 12 months.
Who decides which businesses go on my board?
We find the sponsors, but you can veto any business you don't want and recommend ones you do.
I'm an advertiser. Who designs my ad?
Send us your logo and we'll lay out the spot and send you a proof to approve before anything is printed.
What happens after 12 months?
We check in about two months before the year is up. Current sponsors get first chance to keep their category before it opens to anyone else.
Is Finn really running this?
Finn does the work, with his dad Owen as business partner. Agreements and payments go through Owen, since Finn is a minor.
