About The Go-To winston-salem
The Go-To Winston-Salem is a digital media company that instantly connects individuals to news, businesses, and local attractions through engaging content across multiple platforms – social media, newsletters, and websites. Our goal – help people know about their city.
The Go-To Winston-Salem began in 2021 shortly after the owner, Christy, moved to and fell in love with Winston-Salem. She saw a need for a resource to inform the community and as a result, started The Go-To.
Our team creates engaging, informative, relevant, and up-to-date content. We reach the population of Winston-Salem and surrounding areas through a conversational tone that meets them where they are – online. Today, The Go-To reaches over 500,000 individuals and receives over 1.3 million monthly impressions.
We are invested in the people and businesses that call Winston-Salem their home and promote our partners by seamlessly integrating “ads” within our content.
If you are interested in working with us please contact us through our “Partner With Us” page. Click here to submit an event to be considered for inclusion in our social media and newsletters.
