Want To Get The Word Out About Your Event, Classified Or Job Listing?
Post it on Patch today! Connecting with your community has never been easier.
If something's happening in your town, you'll read about it on Patch. Local journalists cover the news, but community members are welcome to contribute content and post events, classifieds and job listings directly to the site.
If you have something you'd like to share with your community, Patch makes it easy to get the word out. Here are a few ways to get started.
1. Post An Event
When you post an event on Patch, the information will be highlighted on your local Patch website as well as in daily emails that go out each morning. To make sure your event gets noticed, you can pay a small fee for special promotion. When promoting your event, you can focus only on your home Patch or expand your reach to include nearby Patch communities, too.
Whether it's a charity run, a neighborhood clean-up or a school festival, adding your event to the Patch events calendar will get the attention of your neighbors. They can even add it straight to their own calendar!
2. List A Classified Ad
Patch makes it easy to list, find and sell just about anything. If you're looking to clean out your closet, sell furniture you no longer need, discover free items, find housing or anything in between, your local Patch community classifieds section is the place to be.
When you share your classified ad, potential buyers can contact you directly and safely on the Patch platform. For a small additional fee, you can boost the visibility of your classified ad and expand your reach to a wider audience.
3. Post A Job Listing
If you're looking to find top local talent, posting your job listing on Patch (powered by Jobcase) is a surefire way for it to be seen on top job sites. Your listing will be featured on your local Patch jobs page as well as distributed to sites like Indeed®, Glassdoor® and ZipRecruiter®.
Once you have your job description ready, get started in less than 5 minutes. Plus, the Jobcase platform makes it easy to control the hiring process with all your candidates in one place.
