Review Process

Simple!

Our Process1) REVIEW CARDS GIVEN TO CLIENTS- Print Review cards to give to your clients so that they can submit honest reviews on your product, service or performance. These stamped postcards are mailed directly to the Local Search Dominator headquarters for publication. 2) REVIEW CARDS PUBLISHED ON WEB- Review cards are scanned and also entered electronically on the web. These reviews are distributed through a variety of review sites (such as Google Local) so other consumers can find you when they are looking for a service provider.3) REVIEW CARDS MAXIMIZE YOUR VISIBILITY- Reviews published on on-line review sites maximize your company's visibility, credibility and SEO results. The more reviews you have, the better your results.

A Comment on the Economy

When times are bad for the economy, it can be a great time to start a business. In fact, 16 of the 30 companies that make up the Dow industrial average were started during a recession or depression. These include Procter & Gamble, Disney, Alcoa, McDonald's, General Electric and Johnson & Johnson

These economic times are an opportunity. Companies that make it will end up with a larger market share than when they started.

How does one take advantage of the opportunity? By being knownhow does one get known? Marketing and promotion

Without promotion something terrible happens..nothing ---PT Barnum
