Web Marketing & Search Engine Optimization
When my wife and I moved here from a state that shall remain nameless, we found local businesses the way most people find local businesses these days. We looked online. Google, to be precise. We chose a real estate agent who was on page one for a local search term.
After calling and emailing several real estate agents, the first one that called back (within the hour) got the deal. We forged a good relationship over the phone, flew out, and bought a home over a weekend. (And no, we don’t want to change Idaho; we moved here because we like it the way it is!)
What many small business owners are starting to realize is that this is how most new business relationships are started these days: Via the search engines.
But you knew that already…
Chances are good that if you’re reading this, you already know it’s true that search engines are how most business relationships are started these days (how did you find this site?). But maybe you are just not sure what to do with that information.
Well, I’m here to show you exactly what to do with that information. I’m here to help you compete for that online business, because that’s where your customers and clients are waiting to connect with you. Remember, they’re asking for your services…literally. They’re just not finding you.
The Yellow Pages scam
If your marketing dollars currently go toward Yellow Pages advertising, even online Yellow Pages sites, I’ll tell you why you might want to rethink that strategy. Did you know that most online Yellow Pages sites out there, even if they do provide a link back to your site (and most don’t) almost always hide a little tag that makes the link useless to you? Talk about a scam!
And you don’t want to know how many Yellow Pages directories my family has tossed into the trash unopened. That big “thud” in the bottom of the trash can (now the recycling bin for most parts of the Treasure Valley) is the sound of your Yellow Pages advertising dollars, wasted.
A better way to market yourself online
There is a better way to do online marketing for your Nampa small business. In fact, I work with clients across the country, and if you give me a call, I’ll explain to you why I still believe in maintaining a local website like NampaMarketing.com. My strategy has worked for me and for my clients, and I want to put it to work for you.
So before you spend another dollar on your current online advertising and marketing program, please do yourself a favor and call me. I’ve talked to hundreds of small business owners over the years, and many are just wasting their money on ineffective marketing techniques at best. At worst, they are being scammed with misleading or downright dishonest advertising and promises.
I’ve been fortunate enough to learn the keys to online business success through years of experience and real world marketing and public relations experience. Do your accountant a favor and tap into my expertise to help your business grow this year, even in this economy.
You know your potential clients and customers are searching on Google for your services and aren’t finding you. Instead, they’re finding your competitors. At Nampa Marketing, I’ll put my experience in your corner to help you grow your business.
