Local Business Owners are Turning to Local Directories to Find New Business

One expert explains why local business owners are turning to small business directories to bring more customers through the door.

Arroyo Grande, CA, United States – February 7, 2018 /PressCable/ —

Local business owners have experienced a lot of ups and downs over the past year as they first heard about the Retail Armageddon that caused many of them to shutter their doors, and then celebrated as consumers shopped locally in record numbers during the holiday season.

And as the New Year starts out, one expert is advising business owners to remember that local marketing has changed dramatically over the past few years and they’ll need to remember that in order to have a stellar year. “All too often, we see small shop owners and restaurateurs using the old school methods of local advertising, that frankly, just don’t work anymore,” says a spokesman from FindUsLocal.com, a small business directory that helps consumers find US local businesses in their area. “But the truth is, the number one thing local business owners need to concentrate on is having an online presence, because if they don’t’, their business is going to suffer.”

He feels so strongly about it that the local directory has recently produced a video that talks about the importance of local marketing in today’s tech savvy world. “The video is our way of giving back to the local business community,” he says. “It teaches them about how to use local business directories to bring more customers through the doors.”

The local marketing video is posted on YouTube and is free to anyone who wants to see it.
