Take One Town in Douglas County

DouglasCountyCO.com

The flagship portal already runs a live section for every town here. You take one of them, not the county, and you sell into something that is already working.

Five Territories, Each Already Built

Every one of these has its own live section on DouglasCountyCO.com right now, with a business directory and an events calendar running underneath it.

Castle Rock is not available. It is where the flagship started and it is already run, which is also why the rest of the county has something to plug into rather than a blank page.

Why this is unusual

You Inherit a Working Portal

Most people who try to build a local site spend the first year on the site. Domain, hosting, design, a directory that actually holds business records, an events calendar that does not fall over, then the slow wait for Google to notice any of it exists.

That work is finished here. DouglasCountyCO.com has been running across the county, and your town's section is part of it: the directory, the events, the neighborhood pages and the search presence that comes with a domain that has been publishing for a while. What is missing in your town is the person who walks into the businesses.

The deal

What You Get, What We Do

You, the Publisher

  • Sell and grow the Business Alliance in your town
  • Bring in advertisers and keep them
  • Be the face of the brand there
  • Show up at the chamber and the ribbon cuttings

Us, CityKits

  • The portal, built and hosted, already running
  • Writers and editors producing the content
  • Social channels and the newsletter, daily
  • Ad delivery, billing, collections and bad debt

The first $2,500 of monthly market revenue covers what CityKits spends running your town. Every dollar above that splits 80/20 in your favor. No buy-in, no franchise fee, no territory purchase and no monthly platform charge. You never write us a check, because we bill the advertiser and pay you your share.

Terms are illustrative and not a projection of any market's results. CityKits has no operating Publisher history, and no market is guaranteed to reach any particular figure. The full Publisher page carries the complete economics, the ramp and the earnings model.

Fit

Who Runs a Douglas County Town Well

An agent working that town

The relationships already exist, commission income makes a ramp normal, and an MLS feed switches on the real estate vertical from day one.

Somebody in local business

If you have sold to the shops along Mainstreet or the offices off Lincoln, you know who spends on marketing and who only says they do.

A chamber or civic hand

You spend your week with the businesses that belong in the Alliance, and you already go to the meetings.

Anyone local who sells

Parker is not Highlands Ranch and neither is Lone Tree. Knowing the difference is the job.

This will not suit somebody who wants to write rather than sell, or who needs predictable income in month one. We would rather say that now than in month seven.

Next

Tell Us Which Town

The next conversation is not an application. It is a look at your town, the businesses you already know, and whether the numbers hold up where you live.

This goes straight to us and nowhere else. One publisher per town, so tell us which one you mean.
