HELP US Help u
Dedicated to increasing the prosperity of the Lost River Valley, Lost River Economic Development (LRED) is beginning an intensive program to increase the area’s economy. The program will include a quest to attract new businesses and families to the area and a robust effort to attract visitors who stay locally, dine in our restaurants, and shop in our stores.
LRED officials are targeting larger regional businesses and organizations to support the local economy. The program to attract new visitors will be carried out by National Travel Center, experienced in these matters across the United States. Your contributions and involvement in the program will both support LRED’s efforts and bring more business to your company or organization.
The program to attract visitors is especially important because tourism is the most efficient foundational economic development where visitors spend without the community having to deliver additional community services. And no business relocates without the owners first visiting a location. A program in another rural community similar program to the one that will be implemented by LRED generated over 150,000 Google searches within 6 months.

Social media posts will appear on 8 social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X-formerly Twitter, Google My Business, Reddit, LinkedIn, and Blog, three times every week page-tagged to feature locations, hashtagged and linked to relevant websites.
There will be a total of 1248 available posts during the year, providing plenty of runway for features of all kinds, including news, events, promotions, and more.
