[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Daejeon City announced on the 2nd that it will implement the 'Online Marketing Cost Support Project' for local small business owners starting this month.


The project is promoted to help local small business owners develop sales channels online by reflecting the characteristics of the non-face-to-face market activated by COVID-19.


Small business owners operating stores in Daejeon can receive up to 300,000 KRW per business through this project to conduct online promotions.


The eligible support fields include ▲keyword advertising (business exposure ads) ▲social marketing (blogs, cafes, etc.) ▲open markets (Gmarket, 11st, etc.) ▲intermediary platforms (platforms connecting consumers and small business owners). Support applications can be made when online marketing is performed to promote business products.


Applicants must have their business location in Daejeon and have incurred online marketing expenses. At this time, applicants must submit proof of expenses incurred for online marketing after the 1st of last month (such as tax invoices, photos of promotional materials, etc.) as supporting documents.


Additionally, applicants can apply by preparing and submitting the application form, business registration certificate, resident registration (or equivalent) transcript, small business owner verification documents, proof of online marketing expenses, and a copy of the representative’s bankbook to the Daejeon Small Business Support Center at the Job and Economy Promotion Agency.


However, if one representative operates multiple businesses, duplicate support is not allowed. Also, businesses that have benefited from this year’s Daejeon Job and Economy Promotion Agency online marketing support project, non-store businesses, franchise companies, and industries excluded from small business policy funds are not eligible for support.
