You Need More Than Advertising: You Need Attention, Interest, and Action.

It’s true. For most local businesses, advertising is only modestly effective – sometimes not at all. Big money is spent with very little return.
The question is why?

Two reasons:

One, most advertising is never tracked for results. It’s just hoped that it will make a positive difference. Without tracking you don’t know what’s working and what isn’t.

Two, most local advertising lacks a strong offer. It’s usually a message that says, “Here we are, please buy from us”. No appealing offer. No reason to act now. Mostly boring, me-too advertising. Usually a copy of what every other business in that niche is doing.

It doesn’t have to be that way. There are FAR better ways.

Google Search has changed the way local and national branch businesses compete and get attention in the marketplace. The creation of Google Places listings has opened up a new opportunity for local service businesses to rise above the crowd.

Any time a consumer types in a key search phrase in the Google Search bar, Google displays the most relevant information for their search: The most relevant business or service for that local search.

As times have changed Google Places has changed as well.

More and more local businesses are discovering what Google Places can do for their business. You should too. …and here’s why:

Over 20% of all search traffic clicks on the first 3 slots in Google places. (A , B, or C) This means if your company dominates the A, B or C slot, you get immediate traffic. And it should be laser targeted for your business or service.

(it’s not just ‘stray’ traffic surfing the internet for fun)

This means more customers/client’s through your door, and calling you today.

So, the question is, if your company was ‘Top-Ranked in Google’, and you were being found by lots more people searching for your type of service or products, do you think your business would improve? Would more calls and visitors mean more sales?

…would that be likely to translate into more profits and better cashflow?

Of course it would, these are active customers looking for your business right now, not later, not next year, but right now – that’s why they’re online searching!
