Become an Official Partner

Learn more about the program, see available categories, and send us your information. Submitting an inquiry does not reserve a category or approve a partnership.

The Official Partner program

East Texas Locals Official Partners are businesses that invest in standing with us to support the communities we call home. Partnership goes beyond a standard Directory listing—it is a deeper local commitment with enhanced recognition across East Texas Locals.

Current program investment: $1,595/year. Partnerships are reviewed for category fit and are not automatically accepted.

Category exclusivity

There is one active Official Partner per approved child category. When a category already has an Official Partner, it is not available for new inquiries.

What Official Partners receive

  • Enhanced Directory and profile presence
  • Official Partner recognition and badge
  • Recognition on the public Official Partners page
  • East Texas Locals social and digital exposure
  • Event and community opportunities when available
  • Selected print and promotional exposure when available
  • Early access to applicable new features when released

We do not promise guaranteed leads, revenue, impressions, event participation, or specific print quantities. Acceptance depends on category fit and East Texas Locals review.
