Six local businesses.
One clear place for each business.
01 / Community Board
Woolner and Nightcliff.
Seen by locals.
Two launch Community Boards at Percolated in Woolner and Greenhouse in Nightcliff. Each Board has the host’s specials at the top and six local business spots underneath.
One business per category. A useful local connection inside the places people already visit.
The idea is simple
Your local spot.
A few more local connections.
Customers already pause for the host’s specials. Nearby businesses have a clear place on the same physical Board.
A familiar reason to stop and look.
The host gets a free Board, with its own logo and a writeable area for specials, events or updates. Six local businesses sit underneath, each in its own category.
I handle the practical work: design, printing, finding the host, installation and upkeep. You have one local person to deal with.
One per category.
No competitor in your category on the same Board.

All Board terms ↗How much is a Community Board spot?
A founding spot is $595 for 12 months on either launch Board, Percolated in Woolner or Greenhouse in Nightcliff. Your 12 months start when the Board goes up. You pay once upfront, no GST. Future Boards are $790 per spot for 12 months. Renewals are priced separately. That works out at about $1.60 a day, and it is not daily billing.
Who is a Community Board for?
The Board is for local businesses in Darwin and Palmerston NT, especially trusted local trades and home services. There is one business per category on each Board, so a competitor in your category will not sit on the same Board. A cafe or other venue can host a Board for free, with its logo and a writeable area at the top for specials, events or updates.
Where do the launch Community Boards run?
There are two launch Community Boards: Percolated in Woolner, and Greenhouse Cafe in Nightcliff. Each Board has the host's specials at the top and six local business spots underneath, with one business per category.
How do I get a Community Board spot?
Choose an available spot, check your category, and pay in full by card on the Community Board page, or by invoice. An enquiry or the category check does not hold a spot. Only a paid spot secures it. An invoice is due within 7 days. Sy then confirms your category and helps organise your artwork. Nothing prints until you approve the proof. Your 12 months start when the Board goes up.
What is a Community Board?
A proper printed board inside a busy local spot. The host has its own space at the top for its logo, specials, events or updates. Underneath are six local business spots, with one business per category.
What is included?
One category-exclusive spot for 12 months from the day the Board goes up. Design from your logo and details is included, with revisions before proof approval. Nothing prints until you approve it. Top End Local handles printing, the host, installation and upkeep.
Can a competitor be on the same Board?
No. There is one business per category on each Board. Sy confirms your category after the category check and payment.
What does the host need to do?
Provide a suitable visible place in the venue. We talk through placement together, and Top End Local handles installation and upkeep. The host gets the Board free and uses the top area for its own specials, events or updates.
When does my 12-month term begin?
Your term starts on installation day, when the Board goes up at the host venue. It does not start on payment day.
What happens if a host is not found?
The host venue is confirmed to you in writing. The existing Board terms provide a full refund if no host is confirmed within 60 days of payment. Read the full terms for the complete process.
What do you need from me?
Your logo, business details, one main way for customers to contact you, and an offer or short message. I design the spot with you and send the proof for approval. A QR code can be included if needed.
Will the Board guarantee enquiries?
No one can promise that. The Board is a physical way to be seen in a busy local spot. What people do next depends on the venue, the message and what they need at the time.
