Because, sure, we could just <em>tell</em> you that internet access is awesome, and that we want to advance digital equity in Memphis. But we figured actions speak louder than words. We’re going to be showing off Memphis’ entrepreneurial spirit by turning the spotlight on the local small businesses that are a critical part of the community. At the same time, we’ll be offering free service to invaluable organizations that directly support Memphis communities.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Supporting Small Business</strong></p> <p>Through our Friends of Ting program, we’ve connected dozens of businesses in other towns and cities to free high-speed internet service. With those businesses’ help, we’ve been able to spread the word about Ting in their communities. In Memphis, we plan to take our local business partnerships to the next level.</p> <p>We’ll be selecting a local business to highlight on a co-branded digital billboard throughout November, at no cost to them. We’ll also be able to highlight a few others through our other digital marketing channels.<br><br>Interested in having us highlight your business? Use the form below to tell us how you’d use a digital billboard or digital ads to connect with your customers and community, and we’ll reach out to introduce ourselves and talk about how we can help you get the word out.</p> <div id="hs_cos_wrapper_widget_41ab1cb1-4f9f-4ddc-ae71-fe1f10f95aa4" class="hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_widget hs_cos_wrapper_type_module" style="" data-hs-cos-general-type="widget" data-hs-cos-type="module"> <a class="hs-button " href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScIZodSJgTe3TEx6QD2XYHqrAGvwqzmJC05G9988OGBX176jA/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&flr=0" id="hs-button_widget_41ab1cb1-4f9f-4ddc-ae71-fe1f10f95aa4" target="_blank" rel="noopener "> Apply here </a> </div> <p> </p> <p>A few things to note before you submit:</p> <ul> <li aria-level="1">We’re going to give preference to businesses with a physical storefront in one of the following neighborhoods: Cordova, Orange Mound, or Raleigh.
