Just How Busy Do You Want To Be?
By · CommentsPlease watch the video below to see how one local business went from start up ( meaning no income) to raking in over $23,000 in its first 45 days using ONLY online marketing… NO expensive Yellow Pages, Direct Mail, or any other traditional yet ineffective adverstising methods!
When was the last time you used the Yellow Pages to find a local business?
I’d bet its been awhile.
When customers want to find a local business they turn to the Internet and in ever increasing numbers each and every day.
When they come looking will they find your business on the first page of Google?
No doubt you have noticed the huge trend towards local search and have perhaps tried to determine how your business could benefit from this incredible marketing opportunity.
Maybe you had someone build a website for your business, or maybe you tried to build one yourself only to have that site get buried deep beneath the thousands of web pages searchers find when they do a search for a provider in your industry.
It is not your fault, of course. Dominating Google, or better yet, even getting them to notice you exist is a confusing and complicated matter to say the least.
However, you could be seeing huge, and growing rewards from online exposure in a little as 48 hours with the help of our local SEO services and proven online marketing strategies.
If you haven’t watched the video at the top of this page yet that one of our clients put together detailing the amazing results he got using our exclusive “Google Domination” system, you might want to take a look at it. But before you do, if you are unfamiliar with the three key search results Google returns when someone searches for a particular search phrase, like “emergency dentist Chicago”, then read the following explanations of these vital components of local search factors first.
#1 Local SEO for Organic Search Rankings
Organic search results are the usual listings you see when you do a search in Google. Top rankings in organic search will drive huge amounts of targeted traffic to your website. Our proprietary use of search phrase optimized satellite sites will allow your business to dominate the top listings for the terms your customers are actually searching for.
We are experts in when it comes to local organic rankings. We have a complete understanding of how the search engines operate and what they want to see on your website. Let us put our proven local SEO strategies to work for your business before your competition does.
# 2 Optimized Placement in Google Maps/Local Listings
Within the last couple of years the search engines have been providing improved “local search” features. Google in particular has been embedding these “Maps” inside their search pages as part of their Universal Search results. This has opened new opportunities for local businesses and requires different techniques, from organic SEO, to get exposure there.
We can help your business get more exposure with Local Maps SEO. As Maps usage grows it is becoming more important to be seen here as well as in organic search.
#3 Geo-Targeted Sponsored Search Advertising
For many of our clients Pay Per Click (PPC), also known as Sponsored Search, is a powerful advertising method to target consumers in thier area and allows us to put your company in front of those highly targeted consumers for a wider range of keywords and multiple products or services your business may provide.
Want immediate results while awaiting our organic strategies to kick in? The PPC is the way to go! Our geo-targeting techniques, ad group structure and landing page optimization will insure that your ad is seen over your competitors at a cost that is far less and is much more effective at converting searchers to customers!

Using QR Codes on Promotional Items By Jill Manty
How do QR Codes work?
When someone scans a QR code with their smartphone (or any scanning device), they can instantly access information as dynamic as contact information, websites, and even videos. The arrival of this kind of technology is really one of those situations that demands that old standby “Imagine the possibilities”… especially when it comes to promotional products.
QR Code To Bizarre Promotions Website
Here’s the scenario- you send out a promotional item (a mug, let’s say) on which you’ve included one of these codes. The recipient of the item scans the code with their blackberry and is instantly directed to your company’s website via their device. Or how about to a video, even, introducing your newest product? More and more customers are looking for this kind of integrated experience; QR codes are an excellent way to engage your prospects in a compelling and effective way.
What’s even more exciting is that the information is truly dynamic. You can change the information that the QR code accesses whenever you like. Offering a new promotional discount to customers? It’s easy as pie to adjust the content and drive your customers to the new promotion.
The advantages of QR Codes
The key marketing advantage of using Quick Response codes on promotional products is that it positions your company as an innovator. This technology is still new – using it shows that your company is forward thinking and innovative. Nothing is more likely to turn off prospects these days than looking out-of-date and behind the curve. A promotional item with a QR code tells your customers that you know how to keep up with rapidly changing times.
QR codes are also a great way to cut down on your company’s paper trail and demonstrate your company’s commitment to going ‘green’. Virtual information goes a long way toward creating an environmentally friendly business model that appeals to a lot of consumers.
Putting Quick Response codes on promotional merchandise is a win-win marketing choice for companies today. Incorporate Quick Response codes into your marketing campaign and get all the advantages of this exciting technology.

Advertising and Marketing Solutions To Help Your Business Grow
Looking for a search engine optimization agency can be be a difficult task. There are so many companies and individuals offering an SEO service that it can be hard to know how to choose between them. So how do you choose?
First, you need to know the basics of what a search engine optimization agency can do for you. In brief, search engine optimization involves optimizing your website and building links to your site with the aim of improving your position in the search engine results. This means that when somebody is searching for the service that your business provides, your website will show nearer to the top of the list of results that they see.
For most small and medium sized businesses, it is not worth trying to do SEO yourself. There are so many experts out there and the competition ensures that hiring a good search engine optimization agency is not necessarily going to cost you a lot of money. On the other hand, if you try to become an SEO expert yourself, you are going to waste a lot of the time that you could have spent building your real business. Therefore, this is something that you can easily and profitably outsource.
A good search engine optimization agency will be able to explain to you exactly what SEO is and will give you at least a summary of what they will do to improve your rankings. Of course, they may not want to tell you every detail of their plans. Just like anybody else, SEO experts have their business secrets! However, you can expect to be told something about their plans for your site.
It is usually better not to hire anybody who sends you spam email promoting their service. Unfortunately, this is quite common. We are not referring to somebody who sees your website and then calls you or writes you with a real plan for your site. We are talking about the kind of spammer who is probably based overseas and sends the exact same message to hundreds or thousands of website owners.
You can easily tell the difference because the spammer will not have made any attempt to contact you personally and probably has not even looked at your website to see what you do. Somebody who is offering a valuable service, on the other hand, will have taken the time to understand something about your business. They will come to you with ideas already prepared on how they might be able to help you, including an outline plan for the work that they will undertake.
Normally, they will offer an immediate service for intensive work to boost your website’s search engine rankings quickly. You should expect to start seeing results from this within a few weeks. They will also probably offer a maintenance plan where they will continue work to promote your site more slowly over a longer period of time. That is important to maintain your new prominent rankings. So you can expect both a short term and a long term plan from any good search engine optimization agency that you are considering hiring.
Pay Per Click (PPC) Advertising
By · CommentsPay Per Click (PPC), is an incredible way to get highly targeted traffic to your website, in just a matter of hours!
And better yet, you only pay when someone who sees your ad actually clicks on it!
That would be kind of like having a Yellow Pages ad and the only time you have to pay was when someone actually picked up the phone and called your company!
Wouldn’t that be awesome!!!
Now PPC is some tricky business but even if you do not do everything right when you set up your campaigns and create your ads, it can still be extremely profitable.
However, hiring a consultant who knows PPC inside and out and how to get your ads to show in the top spots yet cost less per click than your competition is paying and actually convert better as well, will pay for itself many times over.
If you watched the video on the home page you saw how one of our clients spent roughly $2,000 in PPC and netted over $19,000 in just 45 days. Pretty exciting, huh?
The day after he put this system into place his phone was ringing! We then added organic sites that moved to the first page of Google and that phone rang so much he had to hire help… That is the power in online marketing, if it is done right.
