Recent Report Shows that internet usage grew 46% in 2009. That is HUGE grow considering the massive numbers of people that are being referenced here.
It has been estimated that that over a half BILLION local searches are done each month on google which is about 60-70% of the search market. That would mean that almost a Billion searches are done each month online.
How many are for your service in your area?
There are tools to check the answer to that question but rather than analysis paralysis I would suggest that you get started NOW!
What is the minimum you should do?
- Have a good conversion optimized website
- Get your site to rank 1 or 2 for your main keywords
- Get ALL the possible local listings – Yelp, Google, Yahoo and Bing to start
- Get some PPC Ads going
That is the minimum to get you started.
Of course I suggest hiring a professional that you can trust.
There is so much that a good marketing funnel and follow up system of stacked marketing can do.
Don’t be cheap and trip over a dollar to pick up or save a dime.
