Giving back to the Businesses and people of Bangalow
Let's band together and created a stronger business community.
Bangalow is a small (not so small anymore) town located in the Northern Rivers in New South Wales, Australia, that has seen considerable growth over the past few years.
Hi, my name is Carl, a resident and small business owner in Bangalow for over 18 years and have witnessed this incredible transformation firsthand.
I would like to share my simple journey in Bangalow and my recent endeavour to give back to the community through the creation of Bangalow Locals, a FREE Business Directory and Community hub for locals and visitors alike.
My Small Business Journey in Bangalow
I started c55 creative, a website design, graphic design, and business branding agency, in Bangalow over 18 years ago.
My business has grown significantly over the years, and we now service over 90 clients Australia-wide.
As a small business owner, I have faced many challenges, but the support of the local community has been instrumental in our success.
Bangalow has a tight-knit community that values and supports small businesses, and I am super grateful for this, thank you Bangalow.
Living in Bangalow
Living in Bangalow for over 18 years with my wife (we were married at St. Kevin’s Church on the hill here in Bangalow in 2002), who grew up in Newrybar, and raised our two beautiful girls has been a wonderful life changing experience.
We love the town and the lifestyle it offers. Bangalow has a strong sense of community, and we have made many lifelong friends here.
It is a town where everyone knows each other, and people are always ready to lend a helping hand.
Growth of Bangalow
Bangalow has experienced significant growth over the past few years, with many new businesses starting in the town.
This growth has brought in new ideas, perspectives, and opportunities. I want to bring all these unique businesses together, to help each other grow.
As a small business owner, I understand the importance of supporting local businesses and this is where Bangalow Locals comes in.
The Birth of Bangalow Locals
I wanted to give something back to the Bangalow community that has been so amazing to my family and me.
Using my expertise in website design, development, and business branding, I decided to create Bangalow Locals, a FREE business directory and community hub for locals and visitors alike.
The Purpose of Bangalow Locals
The purpose of Bangalow Locals is to showcase the many businesses in Bangalow that many people may not know exist.
It is intended for anyone who wants to know what types of businesses are in Bangalow, whether they are locals needing professional services or visitors wanting to know what our beautiful town has to offer tourists.
The Bangalow Locals Directory
The Bangalow Locals directory is a new, truly local directory for Bangalow businesses only.
It is designed to showcase the town’s amazing array of entrepreneurs and people who are just wanting to have a crack at starting their own business.
The directory is FREE for Bangalow businesses to join, and it is an excellent way for them to increase their online presence and reach a broader audience.
The Benefits of Supporting Local Businesses
Supporting local businesses is essential for the growth and sustainability of small towns like Bangalow.
When we support local businesses, we are supporting the local economy and helping to create jobs.
We are also fostering a sense of community and building relationships between business owners and customers.
By supporting each other’s businesses, we can make Bangalow one of the truly local towns in Australia.
Bangalow is a special place
I am proud to be a part of this community. As a small business owner, I understand the challenges that come with starting and running a business.
That’s why I created Bangalow Locals, a FREE business directory and community hub for locals and visitors alike.
I hope this platform will help businesses come together and grow together.
Thanks for listening!
