Ok .. welcome to all my weekly "Keep Your Garden Growing" mailing readers! I hope you have come with lots of comments, opinions and input from our mailing this week.
We're talking about local online advertising. Does it work? Should you do it?
I say "yes!" One thing I know is that people do not go to the yellow pages like they used to for finding a plumber, a hair cutter, a dry cleaner, etc. They go online. They also go online for local professional services such as an attorneys, insurance agents, etc.
I believe that every local business should have at a minimum some kind of online listing. Most of the local online advertisers in my mailing were free. At least get yourself listed with those.
Also, if you have some type of local listing you can get by without a website ( not as well as if you had a website, but you can get by). So, expense should not be a factor.
Times are changing. Local businesses need to be on the internet! What say you???
