This is the KM Plaza.
Each city has one located in a prominent building. Vendors can come here to sign up, or find more information. Shoppers can come here to see how KM works, or find links to new areas.
On this page, most of the windows and doors reveal details about KM
and how it works. The shops at the end of the alley lead to other Plazas. Over time, as KM develops, the windows and doors will lead to new and exciting functions, stores, and special deals.

Kootenay Mall Plaza- is a bit different than the other pages in that it is the only page currently accessible from all cities on KM. The placements are reserved for the parent company, APEX Deployment, Pierre Blache the photographer whose picture is used, internal promotional uses, and premium subscribers.
The cards like this one will carry content specific to KM Shoppers and Vendors and.or links to more relevant content.

The MIX
The "Mix" of businesses is calculated according to current research, but also on the activity as measured by Google Analytics. When complementary businesses attract more visitors, it is static, and is fluid when needed.
It is less about prestige, and more about what shoppers are also looking for in those businesses beside yours.
The stores displayed in a Portico are a mix of high end products and services, while a "Terrazza", a fourth floor section, is reserved for 1-3 high end businesses.

The MIX
Each Plaza, Piazza, Portico or Terrazza will have a card for each link in the main picture, plus at least one card for links to adjacent Plazas, Piazzas, etc.
When feasible, and profitable, these cards and pictures can be used to host links for other complementary businesses as well.
Lawn and Garden
You are beginning to see how KM vastly simplifies the internet search. Shoppers don't even need to know what they are looking for, or where. It is now all totally predictable.
This format puts the link to your website right in front of the customers you are looking for.
Customized to Your Business
These pictures are simply examples to display the potential of good imagery. Since it is not confined to available real storefronts, your space on KM can be used to maximise the appeal to the Shoppers you are looking for.

Sports and Outdoors
Proximity Marketing is the main value of a mall, or a shopping district. Kootenay Mall brings that value straight to Shoppers via computers and phones.
These Sections may also be used for advertising
If your business is locally owned, and operates in more than one city, consider a dynamic banner with a link to your website here.
This internal direction banner above leads to KM Sales pages at present,
But, as you can see, there is plenty of room for tasteful advertising Without the chaos of distractions, lists and visual 'noise'. Just like the Kootenays, KM is easy on the eyes.
