A Simpler Way to Advertise Locally: The Vision Behind HeyNeighbor

Why We Built HeyNeighbor

We started HeyNeighbor with a simple mission:
Make local advertising easy, affordable, and effective for small businesses.

Most local business owners don’t have the time or budget to become digital advertising experts. And yet, platforms like Google and Meta expect you to navigate confusing dashboards, manage endless settings, and make decisions about things like campaign types, audience sizes, and budget pacing — all while running your business.

One small mistake — the wrong radius, audience, or optimization setting — can lead to hundreds of dollars wasted with little or no return. We've seen it too many times.

These platforms weren’t built for small businesses. They were designed for large brands with extensive teams.

Meanwhile, local businesses are the ones showing up for their communities every day. They sponsor school events, hire locally, and bring life to our neighborhoods.

That’s why we built HeyNeighbor — to give those businesses a better way to reach the people around them.

Built for the Busy, Not the Big

HeyNeighbor is a local ad platform designed specifically for small businesses, churches, and schools. We stripped away the clutter and complexity to focus on what matters:

• Pick an address — your storefront, a neighborhood, or an event
• Set your radius and budget — starting at just $95
• We handle the rest — from ad design to placement on top apps and websites

No setup fees. No hidden costs. No guessing games. Just results from people nearby who are most likely to become your next customer, visitor, or supporter.

Saving You Time and Money

Our goal isn’t just to help you advertise — it’s to help you avoid the costly mistakes and wasted hours that come with traditional platforms.

With HeyNeighbor, you don’t need to figure out targeting strategies or manage ad accounts. We use advanced ad tech behind the scenes to deliver your message to the right people, in the right place, at the right time — without the overwhelm, jargon, or bloated features you’ll never use.

Because Local Matters

We believe small businesses deserve better.

Better tools. Better support. Better results.

With HeyNeighbor, we’re not just simplifying advertising. We’re giving real people — business owners, pastors, principals, and community leaders — the power to serve their neighborhoods more effectively through smart, local marketing.

When small businesses succeed, communities grow stronger. That’s what motivates us every day.

So whether you're running a bakery, promoting a church event, launching a summer camp, or just trying to connect with the right audience, we’re here to help you grow — one neighborhood at a time.

Because local isn’t just a place. It’s a calling.
