Why The Downtown Sarasota Alliance?

Less cost. Increased visibility.

With a Downtown Sarasota Alliance (DSA) membership, you reap the benefits of our marketing and promotion of the downtown business community. We've spent over a decade building credibility and people turn to us for information about events and opportunities that support our local business community.

Start marketing yourself to get in front of people who support our downtown community.

The DSA studies issues and takes a position on policy matters that reflect the constituency.

TAKE THE PLEDGE

The Buy Local pledge states, “I pledge to vote with my dollars and purchase as much as I can from local businesses. I will maximize sustainability and community investment. I will minimize environmental impact through my buying.” Guests can sign and date a business card-sized pledge and keep it in their wallet as a reminder to shop local. Pledge cards will be available at both Sarasota Architectural Salvage stores this summer! #takethepledge
