TALENT  ATTRACTION

It’s no wonder that every day, 30 people pack up and move here.

With one of the best costs of living, plentiful outdoor lifestyle perks, nationally ranked arts, culture and cuisine scenes, and per capita income that’s 18% higher than the national average, the Northwest Arkansas region offers a unique opportunity to create balance for those eager to move from congested and expensive larger cities and suburbs.

Still, our corner of the country is not always top of mind, but we found a lot of success with our Life Works Here campaign, giving out-of-state job seekers and other potential residents a sense of our local flavor. Through our national advertising and awareness campaign, we aim to help newcomers see themselves in NWA.

LIFE WORKS HERE

Top companies are competing for talent across the country, and the best candidates are looking not only for a good job, but also for a great quality of life. In addition, the rise of remote work has given talent more flexibility over where they choose to live and work.

The Life Works Here regional branding initiative highlights what makes Northwest Arkansas special, a true work life balance paired with enormous economic opportunity.

A national advertising and public relations campaign targets talent in select cities across the country and showcases Northwest Arkansas’ lucrative career opportunities together with the region’s incredible lifestyle amenities.
