Success for Small Businesses

I live in a pretty popular area of New York state. While it is well-known, there are many small business in and around my area that are not well-known at all. If you were to tell the owners of these businesses that they can become popular and do so without leaving their offices, they would probably laugh at you. Honestly though, I have a few simple steps that could and probably would help them grow. These steps would lead them Internet marketing.

First, I would encourage them to start a company website. While it can be time consuming at first, it is well worth it once the site is set up. There are many great website templates out there to help.

Secondly, You need to get heavily involved in social media which is a popular way to reach a global audience. Some social networks that you must use include Facebook and twitter. Blogging articles on your website and linking them to social networks will drive repeat visitors back to your site.
 
Another valuable way to spend marketing dollars would be to participate in pay per click ad campaigns on google networks. You will be able to reach a specific target audience, you can even target local regional audience. This strategy is highly recommended if you have a limited marketing budget.

Lastly, would be to get your website ranked on google with specific keywords. In order to do this would be to consult with a professional search engine optimization company. They can help with optimizing your website to ensure that it gets ranked properly.

So, there are my tips to help small businesses become more successful. Do you have any creative ideas that would help as well? Please share them...I would love to hear your thoughts!

The Pickle Juice Company Review

How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer!

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Cafe Press Review

Are any of you married to a computer guy ? Do you lovingly call him a "geek" sometimes? (my hand is raised here...LOL!) My husband is the most wonderful man in the world. He is funny, sincere, loving and VERY handy with the computer. I have issues sometimes with coding and am often heard calling "Honey? Can you come look at my blog? I don't know how to fix this!!!!" And, my charming prince comes to rescue me. My darling is going to be 31 in a week and I am SO excited to be able to celebrate another birthday with him. He also shares a birthday with our daughter which makes the day twice as fun. :) She has been talking about her birthday for WEEKS and cannot wait! This next review item is for him so if you know him (and I am hoping he doesn't read my blog for the next week :/) don't tell him about this!!!!!!!! If you are looking for perfect, unique and personalized gifts for someone special in your life I will tell you that after this post, you...
