Are you getting seen on Google search results?

When someone is searching for the service you provide, they are generally in need NOW. If you don’t show up in the results you will never get the chance to speak with them.

It doesn’t have to be that way!!!!

For my mates battling their own demons.... Everyone says: " If you need anything, don't hesitate, I'll be there for you "...
My wish is that " my 400 plus friends " put this on your wall. You just have to copy (not share)!!! I want to know who I can count on... and I'm hoping it will be more than 25. Write "done" in comments when you do!

It's a mental illness awareness month.
I've done this for a friend
It's ok not to be ok!
It's a joyful time of year but
It's a lonely time of year for some
Be Kind

Hi I was driving for the last hour and was thinking about my business or rather my job. You see I’m one of those small business owners that does everything for my business! I not only am the marketing, sales, finance, supply chain, accounting and Owner but I’m also the guy who goes out and carries out the work.
This is in the animal control space so I am up on roofs and under houses. Not the best places to be hanging around.
For the past 15 years I have taken a very keen interest in marketing my business, in particular using the internet, you know how it goes,
I can do that better than someone who doesn’t know my business!!!!!!
So what I’m going to do is to lay out what I’ve learnt over this time, what worked and what didn’t. I hope you can gain some insights into marketing you businesses.

What's the Point of a Business Website? This is often the first question I ask when looking at some websites. Have you ever been searching for something online and reached a business website and thought WTF? This site has nothing to do with what I was searching. Then if you are 1 of the 8% of people who decide to stay on the site, you try to find more information, you just get frustrated by how hard it is to navigate your way around. [ 522 more words ]

A Business Website can be the best selling tool you can have or it can be the most frustrating turn off you can subject your potential customers to, ever!

If you do google advertising, are you just playing the price game? I know most people in the accommodation industry are. They get locked into believing that the only option they have is to get listed on all the big booking sites and therefore have to play by their rules.
NOT TRUE. But the same goes for most businesses. If you do what everyone else does then usually the one with the deepest pockets wins.
The one thing you have in your favor is you get the chance to get face to face with your customer.
That’s a huge advantage. Maximize your opportunity!!!!!!!!!!
