Of Local Searches and Website Text, Handling Rejection and Getting Real Likes
I’m seeing pumpkins everywhere. That just means the year is going to rush by very quickly! Time to get things in place for the end-of-the-year rush!
This past week we had a special ceremony rolling out a new website for a local client. It was important for the client to put his logo in a specific corner facing a specific direction and to unveil the site at a specific time. Yeap, we are in the digital marketing age. And our tech person performs magic to make things happen.
This week we saw Facebook reaching the 1 billion active users mark and we remember Steve Job’s passing. We also see new research showing that half of Google searches as local.
That means even if you have an offline local business, your prospects are looking for you on line not all the time (yet) but half the time. Food for thought?
