Shadow on Concrete Wall

Our small business services can help whole communities.
Let's work together to make your town or organization a destination.

Downtown

When more of you have optimized Yelp pages, dozens of online directories each, accurate detailed GoogleMyBusiness and Google Maps pages, it lights up the whole town, firm or group when visitors, tourists, truckers, or anyone searches in your area.

Our marketing for small businesses is designed to help small business owners compete with larger companies, franchises and chains. The ideal combination is small business charm, word-of-mouth and hospitality balanced with farther-reaching tech marketing. And it's ok, you don't have to know "online directories" or "SEO" or have other technical skills. We do that for you. 

Groups of a dozen or more small business owners (stores, CPA's, restaurants, attorneys, real estate agents or offices, coffee shops) can pull together, get discounts on marketing setup, and strengthen the online presence of a whole town.

Special Pricing for:

Chambers of Commerce
Downtown Associations
Industry Organizations
Main St. Revitalization Projects
BNI & Networking Groups
Franchises & Chains
Business Brokers

Legal firms and Real estate offices
