MY BUSINESS IS TO HELP YOUR BUSINESS GET MORE BUSINESS.
In broader terms, it is to help businesses, in any product niche, and in any geographical location, to get more leads and therefore more customers and thus higher profits.
As a business person, you need to ensure that your business is highly visible to your potential customers, and the prime way to be doing that in 2011 is via the Internet and the opportunities it affords those who can utilise it properly.
Internet search has now way exceeded all the old methods of how people look for products and services.
People are searching EVERY day for the products and services of YOUR business, but, do they find YOUR business, or your competition?.
I have no intention of bombarding you with stats that have no relevance, but if you have any doubts as to what the Internet can do for any business, and I do mean ANY business, just read over these quite staggering facts. Some of them made me do a double take!! I can substantiate their source, or sources, should anyone ask.
- 70% of people doing searches online use “local search” to find the products and services of offline businesses. So if you have no online visibility, or they cannot find you due having poor rankings and visibility, those are potential customers lost to you.
- The Internet has now become the principle way that peope do searches for local products and services. The use of “old” ways, such as newspapers and yellow pages, are dropping dramatically.
- Two people, by the names of Ashton Kucher and Ellen Degeneres, have more combined Twitter followers than the polulation of Ireland or Norway.
- More than half of consumers are now using the internet before they make a shop purchase.
- If Facebook were a country, it would be the world’s 4th largest.
- 80% of companies use the site Linkedin for their recruitment of employees.
- 1 out of 8 couples married in the U.S in 2009 met on the internet via social media sites.
- There were just under 420 million internet users in Europe by end of 2009.
- Youtube serves 1 Billion videos per day.
- In the U.S. alone, in the month of November 2009, 12.2 Billion videos were viewed. By the summer of 2011 this had risen to 20 Billion ++
Enough already I hear you say, and you would be right.
The point of all these facts and figures is this – Unless you are using the internet to the maximum advantage for your business, you are at best “leaving money on the table”. At worst, you are allowing your competitors to dominate your geography and niche, and by the time you have realised it, it could be too late.
It makes no odds what size of a business you have, what your product or service is, or what your location.
My sole focus is to help your business, no matter what your product niche, or geograpical target area, to gain more visibility, thus leading to more customers which, all things being equal in the way you run your business, will bring you increased profits.
In addition, should you so wish, I will work with you on a regular basis to ensure that not only is your ranking maintained, but also increased, just like your new customer list.
And this next point is of major importance.
I will only ever work with one company, in any particular product/service niche, in any particular geographical area. So, for example, if you own a driving lessons business in a town or city and you want to take on my services, then I will only work with you, on your business, and on no other driving lessons business in that town or city. You will have my total focus and exclusivity.
