Summer in New England isn’t just a season—it’s an experience. From coastal getaways and mountain escapes to lake days and small-town festivals, this is the time when both locals and out-of-towners are out exploring, shopping, dining, and making memories. For local businesses, that means one thing: opportunity.

If your business isn’t actively reaching this seasonal surge of consumers, you’re missing out. Whether you’re in hospitality, recreation, dining, or retail, there’s never been a better time to build brand visibility, attract new customers, and boost revenue. At Binnie Media, we help businesses just like yours connect with the right audiences across radio, digital, and streaming platforms—all summer long.

Why Summer Marketing in New England Matters

From Memorial Day through Labor Day, towns across the region come alive with travelers and locals looking for where to eat, shop, stay, and play. And they’re actively spending, with tourism and summer events driving big boosts in local economies.

Here’s why your business should be visible all summer long:

  • Tourism spikes with millions of visitors to Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont
  • Increased consumer spending on food, entertainment, experiences, and lodging
  • Locals on the move enjoying staycations, day trips, and weekend activities
  • More media consumption during travel time and relaxed summer routines

To win the season, your marketing strategy needs to meet consumers where they are—and that’s where we come in.
