Birmingham, Ala. (WBRC) – In July, Rev Birmingham helped expand areas to improve business to 5 points south and Switch.
The offer brings together local business owners. It collects an annual evaluation fund, which is controlled by a board of directors, composed by local business owners. Funds are used for delivery of services such as security, cleaning, special events and marketing.
The Regional Manager is also hired for each area through Rev. Michael Sims is the regional manager for the original offer in the city center.
“These are the persons daily who receive those calls who talk to the business and say what is a cool special project? What have you always been scheduled for 5 points, what have you always provided for Switch District? “Said Simez.
Cap Clean and Safety played a major role in expansion, helping to maintain streets clean. The areas are looking at new ways to market and bring more visitors to the area.
“Really just everything that will do the competitiveness area by creating an attractive area and the look provides him with a distinctive identity,” Simez said.
With the expansion, Simez said they were looking for new ideas from the community. They host various consultative forums. The schedule can be found here.
“Anyone who has a big or small idea brought it our way so that we can hear from the public how we can use all these ideas we have,” Simes said.
If your neighborhood wants to start an offer, Rev will help with your feet, but efforts start with the community.
“No one goes out there, saying,” Hey, this space is great for an area for improving business, “and you are directed to this space. All this comes from those business owners, property owners, residents who can see value in this and they want to create the conversation internally, “Simez said.
