We like to say, "We're Local & Proud Of It!"

Let’s face it, small businesses in our community need our support more than ever. The problem is, big box stores and corporate America are constantly trying to squeeze out the little guys.

And, while big tech platforms and national media companies like Yelp, Facebook, Amazon and Google suck billions of dollars out of our community, they simply don’t care about our local businesses and non-profits.

It just isn't right.

We believe our community deserves better!

Tim & Pam Fahndrich

At WhirLocal Salem, we’re not a big tech media company.

Our community-based website and technology might seem small at this point compared to the big national players, but we work hard every day to have a big impact by connecting people to local places right in our backyard.

Like you, we live, work, shop, and play in our community and we truly care about the success of our small businesses and non-profits.

You can help us make a difference. Visit WhirLocal Salem to discover interesting articles and local content. Find trusted local businesses to support by using their services and leaving them a positive online review. You can also sign up for our weekly email newsletter to stay on top of the fun events happening in the local Salem area each weekend.
