The majority of small business owners know Search Engine Optimization (aka SEO) brings in business by making their company easy to find on the major search engines. They also know that the many of their local customers look at their business’ online descriptions (aka listings) and online reviews before they decide to walk in their door and spend money. Yet about half of those who initially list their businesses on local business listing sites (like Patch and Yelp) never update their listings. And roughly 100% don’t have time to think about it.

Analytics Don’t Lie…

…but that last stat is a total guess. We think it’s pretty accurate, anyway.

What about you? Are you one of those too-busy-to-update-your-listing types? We understand; we hear that from most of our customers. Even medium-sized companies with full time marketing or public relations staff positions rarely have time to manage social media campaigns, create meaningful content, and close on sales leads.

That’s why our unique JointSourcing model appeals to many medium-sized and larger businesses. Their marketing and PR staff members are usually – and necessarily – experts in their respective markets, whether it’s manufacturing, sign fabrication, electronic test equipment, or investment real estate.

We’re experts in sales and marketing – with a decided advantage when it comes to local marketing via social media, search, newsletters and so on. Working together with our clients, we help them shorten their sales cycles and decrease their cost of sales.
