Good points and advices. I’m looking more and more for local business. They don’t have a clue about marketing in internet. And Seo. And Facebook. And Instagram.
And anything.
I live in a small city. But have a nice amount of business. They have money. I have a nice solution for the business.
Maybe, just maybe, they are needing my solutions.
I will discover it soon.
PJ, good luck on your efforts. Remember the reason most small local business do not have a strong online presence is because of time and expertise. If you keep it simple for them, you may find the results – over time for them – will be beneficial.
This inspired me and is the foundation of a local media site that I am creating in my metro area. I am excited to start helping local businesses get more exposure.
