Local Internet Marketing for Small Business
SMALL BUSINESSES NEED YOU
If you were a small business owner today, you would be very worried about your bottom line. Although your customers are loyal, they are faced with less discretionary income. Your product is good. Your services are ideal. However, your customer simply cannot make the investment right now. What can you do?
Today's small and medium business owner is dealing with this question every day. What can they do to improve their bottom line and to draw in more customers. While it may seem like an easy thing to do by lowering prices and increasing advertising, these methods are no longer working. People are not responding in the same way they did before. Today's small business owner needs new methods of reaching their customer base, expanding it and literally expounding on their profit margins.
You can help them accomplish just that and much more. Now, imagine that you walked into a small business and you had with you a plan. That plan could help the small business to transform the way that they advertise. You could cut their advertising budget (if they are using commercials or large scale advertising) and you could help them to double their profits and customer counts. Most business owners will not believe you, until you show them how it is done.
However, you have the abilities to accomplish this. Do you think any small business owner would, or could, say no to you?
HOW ARE YOU GOING TO HELP THEM?
Whether or not you have any experience right now in Internet marketing, marketing or even social media now is the time to take full advantage of this unique opportunity. If you have any interest in actually helping small business and building your own profitable business online, this is exactly what you will do:
You will provide social marketing services to the business, so that the business can expand its reach more effectively using the Internet. You can do your job from home.
You will work with these small businesses to get them on the web. The web has become one of the best locations for small business owners to grow their business. In the last few years, the evidence has shown that people go online to search for products and services rather than picking up the yellow pages or heading into their local market. They want information before they commit to getting in the car. For that reason, it is necessary for these businesses to create an online presence for themselves so that they can reap the rewards of new customers.
In short, that is all you need to do to help these companies to experience the type of improvement they want and need to stay operational. But, why?
Before you jump in to marketing for these companies, you need to know the background. Why do companies need these services as compared to what they are doing right now? There are numerous reasons for that.
TRADITIONAL MARKETING IS NOT WORKING
Perhaps the biggest reason that small businesses are struggling is because they are no longer able to grab the attention of their customers. Today, people do not sit through commercials on television. They flip the channel until the commercials are over. People do not turn to the newspaper to read the ads when they can click on a picture online to learn more and get that information faster. Further, even the yellow pages are more difficult to navigate than a search on Google is.
If you were a small business owner ten years ago, you might have invested in each of these methods and received enough business to turn a profit from the ad. Today, some businesses using these marketing methods do not break even from such investments. The downfall is significant in these terms.
Ask yourself, when you need to contact an attorney or you need to find a special part for your bathroom sink, do you contact a company directly locally or do you first head to the web to learn more, find someone or to get pricing information? If you said that you would head online first, then you are doing what many other people do.
To make matters worse for the small business owner, the cost of any of these three methods of advertising have risen dramatically in the last few years. An ad in the local newspaper might have run $50 a few years ago but not business owners are paying hundreds of dollars. In the case of newspapers, the subscription numbers have fallen so much so that these companies are raising costs to stay profitable. That hurts the small business owner trying to market in them.
A third strike is even worse. As more small businesses struggle they turn to these methods to increase their customer counts. This means that there is more competition in these advertising venues.
This opens up numerous problems. It costs more to use these methods. There is more competition to use them. And, people are not using them in the first place but turning to the web instead. As you can see, small business owners are facing a multitude of problems here. Hence, they have an incredible need for a new marketing format.
ECONOMY
Unless you have been living under a rock, the economy has taken a real hit lately. People are now struggling with making ends meet. In return, small business owners just do not have the same level of customers as they once did. To make matters worse, most businesses are seeing a drop in the amount people are purchasing too.
- There are fewer people coming in to make a purchase.
- Those that come in buy less.
- Customers no longer just come in for the sales, they only buy sale priced items, which does not help the company.
- Customers are downgrading from top quality and looking for a better price.
- Customers are willing to take a lesser service and do more of the work themselves for a lower cost.
In many ways, this leads to a financial nightmare for a small business. To get people in the door, the company might lower prices through ads. The hope is to get these customers to trade up when they arrive in store. Yet, this does not happen. Loss leaders, as they are called, simply do not pay off as they used to do so.
ONLINE ADVERTISING IS THE UNKNOWN
Small business owners know about these problems and they know that their business is failing. They understand the importance of the Internet and yet, it is still the unknown to them.
Small business owners are unsure of how to get their business, one that they have built from the ground up, on the web.
- Service providers such as attorneys, real estate agents and plumbers cannot provide their service over the web. They do not realize or known how to get their business online.
- Those who operate retail stores believe that selling their products online is too difficult. They do not want to drop ship or manage online orders. They do not realize they do not have to.
In short, most businesses simply do not know how to take what they have created and to market it on the web. That downfall is where you come in.
