Local Business Online

Website Solutions for Small Business

Do you operate a local business?
Do you know where most of your customers or clients are coming from?
Perhaps you advertise in the local newspaper with negligible results. Or perhaps your sole form of advertising is a small Yellow Pages ad with no way of tracking how much business it is bringing you?

Does your newspaper ad or your Yellow Pages ad do the following...

• Attract hundreds, even thousands, of visitors per day?
• PREsell prospective customers before they call you?
• Develop new relationships, increase loyalty and repeat business?
• Take clients away from competitors?
• Develop new ways to profit from your unique skills and knowledge?
• Update frequently and reach your clients with seasonal specials?
• Open new markets globally, yes even if you are a small local business?
• Get their undivided attention? You have visitors total attention unlike a crowded Yellow Pages page!

You may be forgiven for thinking that the internet or your own website (if you have one), offers little in the way of opportunities for local businesses with a customer base centred in a small geographic area. After all, the Web is a "global medium" with worldwide reach. Or perhaps you've spent thousands of dollars on a flashy website with lots of gee whizz factor but it has brought you zero results in terms of leads or sales.

Online things have been changing rapidly...

With the arrival of Google and Yahoo Local Searches your potential clients are no longer letting their fingers do the walking and are dropping those awkward Yellow Pages paper books like hot potatoes in favor of search engines. It's just as convenient to do a search for "lawn care Richmond" online. And if you don't find one in Richmond, widen the search to "lawn care Melbourne". Try a widening a search with Yellow Pages and see what happens!

And it's not just potential clients who are becoming more and more net savvy. More and more local businesses are coming online. They are discovering that the internet can be used to:

• Build trust and deepen relationships with existing local customers
• Raise their local profile above that of competitors
• Promote locally and take customers from competitors
• Keep in touch with customers through online newsletters
• Build targeted traffic and even add entirely new income streams
• Leverage your local expertise and knowledge for a global market

Think of a website as a Fully Loaded Yellow Pages Ad. Not only does this ad deliver 100 times the results at fraction of the price but if YOUR small local business does not have a web presence already to promote itself, keep in touch with its customers and extend its reach, your COMPETITORS WILL before long that's if they don't already.

Whatever your local business may be, your reach and your impact is now much, much bigger than a 4" x 2" Yellow Pages ad. We can show you how to get 1,000 times (literally) the value of a Yellow Page ad from a website, regardless of the type of local business or local clientele you have, and regardless of your background, starting from scratch, no technical skills or net marketing mastery required.

Right now a prospective customer is at Google...Will yours be the business that is found?

Despite the overwhelming advantages of a website, most small local businesses have at least one Yellow Pages ad, but they do not have a website. (Or if they do, their sites are dying from a lack of traffic and results.)

That is all about to change...

Even if your business is primarily driven by local clientele, you can still survive without a website for the next short while. But local businesses are catching on. Keep in mind that more and more consumers find those big, heavy paper Yellow Pages too inconvenient and limiting. It's so much easier and flexible to use Google and other Search Engines. People are already comfortable with doing things online and already, most businesses and homes are using broadband with 24/7 high-speed internet access.

What is preventing you from starting and building a thriving online presence that will help you to grow your offline local business and add new income streams to it?

No budget? We can show you how to get 100 times the value of a Yellow Pages ad for 1/10th of the cost.

No ability? Yes, HTML, FTP, CGI, and search engine mastery can be crushing. We eliminate the need for all that.

No knowledge? The only knowledge you need is your business and your customers. Leave the rest to us.
