Just recently I went to one of your websites, and your copy was so engrossing that I read every word of the site. That doesn't happen often as I consider myself a professional skimmer. Yet, you made such a connection I wasn't able to skim yours at all. Bravo for you. Anyway, I definitely appreciate your comment and your valuable addition to the local business angle. Terry Hi Shaune,

I’m very pleased to see you lurking around here. Just recently I went to one of your websites, and your copy was so engrossing that I read every word of the site.

That doesn’t happen often as I consider myself a professional skimmer. Yet, you made such a connection I wasn’t able to skim yours at all.

Bravo for you.

Anyway, I definitely appreciate your comment and your valuable addition to the local business angle.

Terry

I was interviewing him for the copy he needs for his new website, etc. His words... "We're getting customers from our site. I've done a search on myself and realize that I need to be in that top 3. (He entered his company name, city and state) It really made an impression on me that he had done a local search -- that it was that "known" to do that. I asked him about the Yellow Pages -- Both Online and Offline -- to him "Internet Presence" was much more significant. I mentioned this experience to a colleague. He says, "Oh yeah, a friend of mine with a prefab homes business was saying the same thing -- customers coming on the lot having been to his website first. He wanted more." Business owners are "feeling" how the Internet can fuel their local business. A bit more... I mentioned it to my girlfriend who said that many of her co-workers use Google to find local businesses. Again, I didn't realize it was so popular to do so. Whoa... forget Web 2.0! Very wise you are Mr. Dean. Shaune Hi Terry,

I did an interview today with a client who has a new brick and mortar store. I was interviewing him for the copy he needs for his new website, etc.

His words…

“We’re getting customers from our site. I’ve done a search on myself and realize that I need to be in that top 3.

(He entered his company name, city and state)

It really made an impression on me that he had done a local search — that it was that “known” to do that.

I asked him about the Yellow Pages — Both Online and Offline — to him “Internet Presence” was much more significant.

I mentioned this experience to a colleague.

He says,

“Oh yeah, a friend of mine with a prefab homes business was saying the same thing — customers coming on the lot having been to his website first. He wanted more.”

Business owners are “feeling” how the Internet can fuel their local business.

A bit more…

I mentioned it to my girlfriend who said that many of her co-workers use Google to find local businesses.

Again, I didn’t realize it was so popular to do so.

Whoa… forget Web 2.0!

Very wise you are Mr. Dean.

Shaune
