During October 2026 we will launch our WAYDOWNSOUTH.CO.NZ website
as a platform for advertisers and promoters from Greater Dunedin, Coastal Otago and Clutha followed then by Rakiura, Greater Southland, Central Otago and Waitaki regions.
To help publicise the purpose and aims of the campaign we will use the the top rating radio stations
NEWSTALK ZB, THE SOUND and SOCIAL MEDIA simultaneously.
We will also be utilising our exciting new ONLINERADIO.NZ streaming service which
will let us build an audience across New Zealand, Australia and Pasifika.
The first goal we have for this campaign is to assist business growth for everyone by exposing and promoting business opportunity within every town and rural district in Otago & Southland thus creating a greater pool of potential customers for goods and services by actively supporting and trading with our neighbours.
Kiwis of all ages have good business ideas but the high cost and difficulty of getting the message out to the public on a consistent basis usually destroys any chance of actually making a profit, well NOT ANY MORE!
Thanks to our councils and major business supporters, local startups can now afford constant advertising
with affordable options starting from just $5 per week with the first 3 months totally free.
The second goal we have for this campaign is to encourage employment and an ability for everyone to earn some additional income to offset some of the cost of living expenses that we are all experiencing and lets be honest expenses will always continue to rise no matter where you live but we can all help each other financially.
The third goal we have for this campaign is to encourage southern wide social contact and promotional support for public occasions, concerts, special interest gatherings, sports events. food festivals, school reunions, rural show days and many social opportunities that we can invite each other to attend which brings money into
towns, villages and rural districts helping build income for local shops and communities.
The fourth goal we have for this campaign is ultimately to spread the campaign up through Canterbury, Westland, Tasman and Nelson thereby growing our southern business and social reach into the entire South Island encouraging business action transactable by ecommerce and active communication.
This would give our southern councils and communities an opportunity to employ and invite families to move into our fabulous regions growing our populations and diverse capability.
We will share useful information and suggestions as we build to a brighter future together.
THIS IS A TEAM EFFORT AND TEAMS WILL WIN EASIER BY COMBINING OUR SKILLS AND TALENT.
