Have a new business?  Want to be a new business?  FayToday will help new businesses and inspiring entrepreneurs reach out to the community.  Our social media marketing platform was built to help others, so share your new business on our facebook fanpage or ask about any local resources that can help you get established.  Our network of nearly 10,000 people is a great start for marketing, branding, and promotions.  We offer free advertising on Saturday’s or you’re welcome to share FREE public event to our subscribers (one per day, and 3 times per week).

HOW AND WHAT WE DO?

Simply put, we are in love with information literacy in this computer era.  Mix that with a passion for helping the local community and you have FayToday.

Our social network is fueled by social activism, operated by Kres Thomas and a crowd of local participants who create and share content on our online community.  We like to call this user-generated content, which is the new news of our times.

Doesn’t the world seem like each action is tweeted, updated on facebook, or images posted to an instagram?  Well help curate all public posts in one spot to deliver the news quickly and first hand.  If you’re a news junkie, then you’ll love us …if you think Fayetteville is boring, then you’ll love us …if you want to know how to help your community, then you’re in the right spot.  “Like” Fayetteville Today!
FayToday is not connected or affiliated with any business, city government, non-profits, or existing organizations.
