The Comfortable Citizen Effect: Why We Need to Support our Local Restaurants and Cinemas Now More Than Ever.

This article mashes up Technology Vs. Culture in the idea that supporting local restaurants and cinema, will increase our economies and rid us of being comfortable citizens. There are many benefits and concerns on both sides of the coin, but I plan on submitting this article to an array of publications that fit my criteria.

GOAL: To create a healthy list of events and challenges that will learn from apps such as Pokémon Go and urge us to get out of our comfort zones and try new things.

POTENTIAL SUBMISSIONS: Websites, Blogs, and Application Developers such as;

1.    Thrillest– They do a great job of compiling lists of “Best in the city” and “Top 10 eats” type of articles that can help drive business to your local restaurants and cinemas.

2.   Yelp– They may create a sub category for their premium members that already review restaurants to meet certain goals within the app.

3.   Movie Pass– This will hit those bargain hunters that are already heading to the cinema and may wonder about what to do after the show.

4.   Business Insider– Business professionals that want to grow their economies will respond to the idea of keeping their costs low and in turn keeping their profits high.

5.    Facebook– Creating a calendar of events that can be shared and talked about amongst a community is key to supporting local.

CHALLENGES: My main challenges come from getting people out of their comfort zones when technology has made our lives easier and cheaper in many ways.

Also, creating a way to keep costs down for everyone involved while keeping excitement up from the local community.

CONCLUSION: I think my article is suited for these publications and applications because I do believe people want to get out of their comfort zones, they are just looking for the best way to do it. At one time, it was important to be a regular at the local watering hole or work at the local cinema and I think we can bring these lifestyles back.
