The Benefits of Buying Locally

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Palmerston North

Want to put your money where your heart is? Locally made products come with a whole lot of benefits - typically higher quality and greater attention to detail being in the top two.

Want to put your money where your heart is? Locally made products come with a whole lot of benefits - typically higher quality and greater attention to detail being in the top two.

The face behind the product had a dream of starting up on their own, knew in their heart of hearts it was a great product (or service) and believed it could help others. So, they took some risks, took over the dining table, made lots of mistakes, thought about the business day and night - but always kept going. Here are some decent reasons to shop local...

Boosting the local economy: Seventy per cent of all NZ Enterprises are sole traders. That's a big number. But purchasing locally doesn't just build an economic future for small businesses, it’s an economic confidence that spills out into other areas in life and the community.

Customer service: Buy locally and you are sure to receive a customer service above the ordinary. Plus, it's always reassuring to know you can call a local number if somethings amiss or not quite right.

Feel good factor: Knowing that your money lands in the lap of a local business with integrity and passion creates that lovely feel-good factor. You can see the love in the product, the packaging, the personal notes.

Customised goods = meeting consumer needs: More often than not you are talking to the maker directly so selecting a specific colour or changing out something is more likely to happen.

A bit of nostalgia and perhaps a shower thought

Michael Neighbourly Lead from Roslyn - Terrace End

Just had a rather heated conversation with a telemarketer. I dont generally fault these people, its a job, so y'know don't need to make their day any harder but this one was rather rude, and insistent to a fault and by the time I hung up, I nearly tossed my smartphone.

Just had a rather heated conversation with a telemarketer. I dont generally fault these people, its a job, so y'know don't need to make their day any harder but this one was rather rude, and insistent to a fault and by the time I hung up, I nearly tossed my smartphone.

Found myself missing the touch tones, that satisfying ding when you gave it a slam. Man that ding was so satisfying, and I never knew I'd miss it.

Now you got to gently put your phone down lest it crack the screen.

I think that is rather representative of our world at the moment. In society, that there's just so many prompts in our daily lives that we didn't have before just a few decades ago, ones, that we've learned to give us pause like can't slam the phone now for instance or the expensive thing breaks. And the phone could represent how society is, not just more fragile but more sophisticated like that new smart phone.

Now and again I feel everything is too politically correct or for instance kids this generation are more sensitive than mine, like how everybody's offended about something. But I wonder if its less that they lost something I had that made me "Stronger" and more like, they have, or are more than I ever was, they may not be as solid as the old phones we used to slam but they are far more advanced and have so many more uses and capability, we just have to be careful with them like the new glass phones.

Anyhow, just found myself thinking and wanted to share.

I've recently returned home to Palmerston from Berlin (covid reasons) where I was playing as a professional musician and am available for some students.

I have a Bachelor of Music from the Jazz school in Wellington, further study in electronic music, record engineering and composing at Vicotria and I have been producing, composing, and gigging for about ten years in Wellington, Melbourne and Berlin.

I teach Jazz, Folk, Neo-soul, Blues and Rock guitar predominately, and am proficient at Ableton and Logic primarily but can operate and teach any DAW.
