Many members ask; How are you going to make money with inSide919? and the truth is... that we're not. "Advertising" here is really not a good investment and something we could not in good faith offer. So, I've been looking for something (since May '08) that would fit with our mission of promoting and branding the micro business owner and solo professional and when I was introduced to LocalAdLink in February '09 - it was an obvious & natural fit! So, now the answer is... that we'll become a reveneue producing network by representing LocalAdlink as a way for our members to 'Push' their brand and marketing message out to the net. LocalAdLink.com is the new way to broadcast your business in your local market. As you know traditional print advertising is becoming less effective each year. Already 54% of people have traded in their old Yellow Pages and solely search online and this number is growing daily. The cost to print and physically send mailers is increasing faster than the return on investment. Newspaper readership is rapidly declining while the cost to place a classified has remained steady. Your customers are already searching online. Local cable and radio are also changing - with the arrival of TIVO, people are skipping commercials more than ever and now with satellite radio such as XM and Sirius, local programming is becoming harder and harder to find. Reaching new customers in your local area is vital to your continued success. LocalAdLink uses geo-targeting technology which determines the physical location of a web site visitor and delivers different content to that visitor based on his or her location (zip code). The revolutionary part of LocalAdLink is that they take your business listing and push it out onto the web. What does this mean for you? Well, they're not just sitting back and waiting for people to visit LocalAdLink, they are pro-actively pushing your listing out through their network of partner web sites. Your listing can be seen on some of the most popular web sites, search engines, and social networks in America. Some of these include Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL, Ask.com, Earth link, YouTube, GMAIL, About.com, Napster, PGA.com, Redbook, Hollywood.com, Monster.com, MySpace, LinkedIn, Friendster, Bebo, Hi5, Orkut, MiGente and BOOMj. But the best part is by using their geo-targeting software, your ad is only shown to people in your area which ensures you get the most value for your advertising dollar - which is a small 'fixed' cost every month.
