IN THE HOUSE BY RODNEY HOUSLEY
Welcome to
THE PACIFICA ANCHOR MAGAZINE
The first question is WHY ? Why a magazine dedicated to the people and communities of Pacifica . The answer is quite simple … there is not a magazine exclusive to Pacifica . The idea for The Pacifica Anchor came about while working on the Pacifica Chamber map , directory , and their new website . I spoke with countless local businesses over the past six months and the feedback was that Pacificans wanted a local magazine they could call their own and not feel like a red-headed stepchild . Local support , as well as local dollars , are critically important in our economic comeback . Yes , call it pride but in a healthy way , Pacifica should take it personal .
The Pacifica Anchor will celebrate the people and rich generational traditions that make Pacifica so unique . Pacifica is the first-place people see when they come down the coast . We are starting a new campaign to promote Pacifica in our magazine . Pacifica is the “ Passage to The Coast ” and “ Everything Starts Here !” We have many plans to promote Pacifica through our magazine and highlighting why Pacifica is not just a place to “ STOP ” but a place to “ START ” “ STAY ” and “ PLAY .” Pacifica owns this distinction and we should take it personally because face it ... everything after Pacifica is the coastside .
Our community magazine provides the visual awareness a business needs , but today that is not enough . Businesses need more than traditional advertising . A business needs a partner to help them in the digital marketing space now more than ever . Enter Coastside Media . I have been in the digital marketing space for over 15 years and it is important to have the combination of print and digital working together . If your traditional marketing is driving your potential customer into an unhealthy online digital space , you are throwing your money away . The Pacifica Anchor and Coastside Media provide a powerful combination of marketing that allows us to have a deeper conversation with businesses in Pacifica . Let ’ s face it , with over two years of COVID-related setbacks , local businesses need to go further than ever before and need a team to bring it all
