Internet Marketing can have a huge impact on businesses whether they’re physical or completely virtual. Search Engine Optimization and Marketing is an engine that is proven to deliver results much greater than just the yellowpages, or advertisements in a magazine. One of the best examples we can offer for this would be Maryland Martial Arts, LLC. Jon and Ines over at MMA, LLC came to Leadmatix with a straightforward task. They were starting a physical business focused on Martial Arts, and didn’t want to spend thousands of dollars advertising in magazines and the like. We gave them a solution so straightforward and easy for them, they couldn’t pass it up. Let’s go straight to the testimonial they submitted for us - and as of right now, we believe it still plays true in terms of the rate of return.

“Robert has helped the growth of my business immensely by attracting the right kind of clientel through the internet. Due to Robert’s ability to create appealing websites and drive prospective clients to those websites, when people contact me they are already so impressed that they are ready to sign up before actually visiting the school.

Since collaborating with Robert a couple months ago, we have seen the amount of business that we attract through the website increase by 300% monthly. Previously, our website generated little, if any, business; now, most of our customers come in off of the website.

To get this kind of exposure through advertising in magazines and newspapers, as my competitors do, would have cost several thousand dollars per month. While we are busy posting flyers around town and trying to get our name out there, the website is doubling our efforts, and we don’t even need to do anything!”

This is just one example of the power of Internet Marketing with a physically-located business. YellowPages was not too much help for them, and either was handing out fliers. The true power came from people asking that little thing called Google for help finding a Martial Arts location near them. This is a pure example that the power of Google can literally change a business around - fast.
