How buzz.city Solves Event Promotion Challenges
Problem: Social Media Overload
Your Facebook event post gets buried within hours. Instagram stories disappear in 24 hours. You're competing with everything from cat videos to political rants.
Our Solution: buzz.city is purpose-built for event discovery. No algorithm deciding who sees your event. No competing with unrelated content. Just events, visible to people actively looking for them.
Problem: Limited Geographic Reach
Traditional event platforms focus on city-wide or even national events. Neighborhood happenings get lost.
Our Solution: Our map-based approach makes local events just as discoverable as major concerts. Someone exploring the 7th district will see your café concert alongside larger venues.
Problem: Wrong Timing
You promote too early and people forget. Too late and they've already made plans.
Our Solution: Events are automatically visible on the map on their date. People planning "what to do tonight" or "this weekend" see your event exactly when they're making decisions.
Problem: Fragmented Promotion
You need to post on Facebook, Instagram, your website, maybe buy Google ads, list on multiple event platforms... exhausting and expensive.
Our Solution: Submit once to buzz.city. Your event reaches an engaged audience without managing multiple channels or paying for ads.
