T���K L CAL ��Y L CAL We’re really lucky... our local area is full of wonderful small businesses
There are heaps of reasons to buy from local companies Here are 5 big reasons for using your local businesses: 1. They know their customers Local businesses understand people in the area. They’re quick to react to what their customers want and are able to meet the changing needs of the local population. This means they can offer you relevant and interesting products and services rather than the larger, more commercial companies that generally provide the same things no matter where you live.
2. They create jobs Shops in our towns create jobs within the local community. By purchasing from these smaller businesses, you’re helping to grow employment opportunities which in turn, makes the area a better place to live and work.
3. The experience There’s nothing quite like the personal touch that comes with the customer service in a local shop. They get to know you and can offer products and services that best meet your needs. Plus, they have an authenticity that the bigger brands can’t usually match. What’s not to like?!
4. They’re better for the environment Local businesses often source their products locally, which helps to reduce their carbon footprint.
5. Great deals - you’ll be surprised! Don’t assume that chain stores have the best deals - local businesses can have competitive pricing that you might not expect. Before you hit Google, take the time to have a look around your area and see what’s on offer. Which local businesses do you love?
There are two fine examples of established local companies on the next pages... Visit: www.local-answer.co.uk for LOCAL NEWS & SPORT | August 2021

Healthy Eating LEMON MERINGUE PIE
I
f you eat healthily most of the time, you can afford to give yourself a treat now and then, that is when I make this delicious Lemon Meringue Pie. There are not many ingredients and it’s easy to make. You can make your own shortcrust pastry or buy shop bought.
Recipe Pastry: 6oz plain flour, 3oz butter (or margarine), water to bind. Filling: 2 large lemons (with the zest and juice separated), 10 fluid oz water, 3 tablespoons cornflour, 2oz sugar, 2 large egg yolks, 1½ oz butter or margarine Topping: 2 large egg whites, 4oz sugar To make the pastry, rub the butter into the flour until in resembles breadcrumbs. Add water bit by bit until you have a firm dough. Roll out the pastry to fit a pie/flan tin. Heat the oven to gas mark 6. Bake the pastry blind (this means putting greaseproof paper over the pastry and adding some baking beans so that the pastry doesn’t shrink or bubble up), bake it for 10 mins with paper on and then 10 mins with the paper and beans taken out. Take it out of the oven and reduce to oven heat to gas mark 2.
Make the filling – mix the cornflour, sugar and some of the water to a paste. Set aside. Pour the rest of the water and lemon zest into a pan, heat to boiling and then pour in the cornflour mixture – stirring rapidly so no lumps are formed. Heat for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg yolk, lemon and butter. Spread this into the pastry case. Make the topping – whisk egg whites and sugar until it forms stiff peaks. Put the topping into the flan case on top of the filling, use the back of a spoon to tap on the topping to form little peaks. Cook for 45 minutes. ‘Healthy Eating’ courtesy of Sue Lorrimer.

Business Digital and Print - The Ideal Marketing Mix! Digital or print. Which is better? This is the wrong question. Instead, we should be asking how they can each serve as a launchpad for the other. Digital and print go together like fish and chips and can be a really powerful marketing combination to connect with potential customers. Here, we’ll talk about why you should be bridging the gap between digital and print and how you can use them to your advantage. So, what are the benefits of this strategy? The internet is chock-a-block with ads. Social media, search engines, emails… you name it! Combining a printed ad with your digital efforts can help to make your brand stand out and give it more prominence. It means that by covering more bases and having more reach, you’re giving people the best chance of seeing your ad which can build brand awareness. Simply put, multiple touchpoints results in a better chance of conversions! Here are a few ways to make it effective: Get consumer feedback Maybe your sales are booming, maybe they’re not. Either way, if you’re using both digital and print mediums, gathering feedback from consumers Page 26
can help you pinpoint what part of your marketing is working. By asking people what prompted them to get in touch, visit your site, or do whatever other action they performed, you can begin to understand their behaviour. It could have been a social media post that they found when scrolling through Facebook or it could be a printed ad that they saw in a local publication. Use calls to action (CTAs) to drive traffic Compelling CTAs can help to get your message across and ultimately, encourage people to take action. That action could be visiting a specific page on your website, calling your number to book an appointment or visiting your shop in person, etc. A CTA can be placed in a digital format or in print. You could experiment with different wording here and see which ones get the most engagement. August 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

Examples of calls to action include ‘Claim your free XXX’, ‘Talk to us!’ and ‘Buy now (then give them a reason to)’. Come to life with QR codes and personalised URLs QR codes can be placed, well, anywhere really! Whether you’re printing on t-shirts, magazine-type publications, or window displays, they’re relatively straightforward to implement and even easier to track. They’re also convenient for on-the-go customers - they just need to scan it using their mobile. This kind of data can give you an interesting insight into how people are interacting with your business and how, when and where they’re connecting with you. Working best together In summary, by creating a cross-
platform marketing strategy and analysing the findings, you can better gauge performance and the behaviour of your consumers. This will help you to develop creative approaches to achieve your business goals. Need help with a printed ad in the Local Answer? Give Yvette a call on 01642 296523, 9am to 4pm, Monday to Thursday.

Humour
ON THE FRINGE OF BEING FUNNY!
T
he famous Edinburgh Fringe comedy festival takes place in August and if you’ve never been you may well wonder whether it is, indeed, actually funny. Having been a few times I have to say that it’s a bit like any comedic situation. Some will find it hilarious and others will find it a bit dull - it really depends on your personal sense of humour. To give you some examples - and let you see for yourself - we’ve managed to find what ‘experts’ consider the best twenty jokes told over the past ten years or so. We’ve also included the writer’s name just to shame them. See what you think! 1. “Never date a tennis player. Love means nothing to them.” – Matt Winnin 2. “My granny was recently beaten to death by my grandad. Not with a stick – he just died first” – Alex Horne 3. “I’m sure wherever my dad is, he’s looking down on us. He’s not dead, just very condescending.” – Jack Whitehall 4. ”When I was small I asked my mum what a couple was and she said: ‘Oh, two or three’. And she wondered why her marriage didn’t work.” – Josie Long 5. “I’ve decided to sell my Hoover … well, it was just collecting dust.” – Tim Vine Page 28
6. “Dave drowned, so at the funeral we got him a wreath in the shape of a lifebelt. Well, it’s what he would have wanted.” – Gary Delaney 7. “I needed a password eight characters long so I picked Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.” – Nick Helm 8. “My mother told me, you don’t have to put anything in your mouth you don’t want to. Then she made me eat broccoli, which felt like double standards.” – Sarah Millican
9. “You know who really gives kids a bad name? Posh and Becks.” – Stewart Francis 10. “I’m single by choice. Her choice. No it was mutual. We came to the mutual agreement that she would marry her ex boyfriend.” – Brett Goldstein August 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

11. “My friend said she was giving up drinking from Monday to Friday. I’m just worried she’s going to dehydrate” – Kerri Godliman 12. “My dad is Irish and my mum is Iranian, which meant that we spent most of our family holidays in customs.” – Patrick Monahan 13. “Hedgehogs. Why can’t they just share the hedge?” – Dan Antopolski 14. “I just deleted all the German names off my phone. It’s Hans-free.” – Darren Walsh 15. “Miley Cyrus. You know when she was born? 1992. I’ve got condiments in my cupboard older than that.” – Lucy Beaumont 16. “People say I’ve got no willpower but I’ve quit smoking loads of times.” – Kai Humphries 17. ”Two aerials on a roof fell in love and got married. The wedding wasn’t great but the reception was fantastic.” – Jimeoin 18. “I heard a rumour that Cadbury is bringing out an oriental chocolate bar, but it could be just a Chinese Wispa.” – Rob Auton 19. “I’ve just been on a once-in-alifetime holiday. I’ll tell you what, never again.” – Tim Vine 20. “I once lost a chess game to a computer, but I got my own back. It couldn’t match me at kick boxing!” Craig Mulhearn We rest our case!
