STATE OF LOCAL MARKETING
5 TRENDS1. Online Reviews and Ratings1
+ 86% of consumers read reviews for local businesses
+ 57% of consumers will only use a business if it has 4 or more stars
2. Customer reviews = Search Engine Optimization Tactic2
+ Google appears to be using high ratings and positive reviews as important signals to determine which mapped local business results get displayed most prominently.
3. Mobile Site Speed2
+ This is extremely important and will be used as a factor in determining search ranking.
4. Location, location, location2
+ Smartphones and built-in GPS capabilities make ad targeting more sophisticated.
+ Location-targeted mobile ad spend is expected to nearly double in the next four years.
5. Effectiveness of In-Person Events2
+ Local events (fairs, trade shows, etc.) and hosted events (seminars, classes and showcases) - high reward, although high effort.

TOOLS + TIPS FOR ANY BUDGET
DESIGN+ Hire a freelancer or contact
the closest University to get the students involved or hire an intern at a lower hourly rate.
WEBSITE+ If you can’t hire a design
team, utilize WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace to purchase a templated, content manageable, and responsive (resizes automatically for mobile, tablet and desktop) design to customize.
PRINTING+ Use online printing services
like Vistaprint.com or Moo.com to produce quality pieces at a low cost.
ADVERTISING: DIGITAL AND PRINT+ Identify the publications
that fit your needs, negotiate, and request the 4X insertion rate.
EMAIL CAMPAIGNS+ Keep branding consistent.
+ Use a cost effective email marketing platform such as MailChimp.
+ Grow your list. Make it part of your sales process.
+ Do not add names to the list without consent. Blacklisting is the consequence.
