it is estimated that 97% of consumers learn about local businesses online.*

think about that for a moment.

in a pool of 100 strangers that you’ve never met, 97 of them learned about your business over the internet.

maybe they happened to ask for a recommendation on facebook and a good friend of yours tagged your business. or, maybe they were searching on yelp to find the perfect contractor. regardless of the avenue they’ve found your business, they’ve found you.

here is where your online presence can make or break you.

when those 97 people locate your business, whether on facebook, on your website, or sometimes worse, on a review site, what impression will they get of your business?

• will they see customer reviews that you weren’t even aware of?
• will the reviews that have been left show responses that demonstrate that your company is customer-service oriented?
• will they see accurate information about your company, like the correct phone number across all sites?
• will they see a consistent and cohesive message across all of your platforms?

if you’re unsure of how your online presence is represented, you’re in good company.

you’re a business owner. you’re busy working on projects in your field. those projects that truly make you money and are the reason you went into business in the first place. your mind is not thinking of whether you’ve checked all of your social media accounts today, or whether the customer that seemingly everything went wrong for, despite your best efforts, left you a negative review. and that is okay! you can’t handle it all, but you also can’t afford to lose customers because your presence is unmanaged. and, you’re not alone. many business owners struggle with these issues, especially with the ever-changing avenues of technology.

that’s where we come in.
