Having a small business is the dream of millions of people. Once they embark on their dream, they realize that it’s more than just a job. They have to wear 10 different hats, and the hat that usually gets forgotten or brushed aside is marketing.
One reason for this is the feeling that marketing is expensive, and wondering if it really works. There’s so many competing advertisers that say their marketing is the best – radio, yellow pages, newspaper, TV, postcards and yes – you have to have a website.
Yellow pages are on a decline, and have been for a couple of years. It is estimated that the printed yellow pages will be extinct within 3 more years. Newspapers aren’t faring much better. So what is a small business owner supposed to do? Where do they turn for honest and open information?
Internet marketing has been around for a while, but it is still the wild, wild west to most small business owners. So many have paid good money for a nice website, only to find out that it is really more like a nice billboard in the desert. Just having a website doesn’t mean more customers are going to come knocking on your door.
