Local Ad Link is the Low Cost Provider of
Internet Advertising and Branding for Local Businesses.
LocalAdLink, a leading online directory service, has joined forces with Beyond Commerce, Inc.’s subsidiaries, BOOMj.com and i-SUPPLY in order to bring local businesses and local consumers together. BOOMj.com is the number one social networking site for Baby Boomers and Generation Jones and i-SUPPLY is a full service e-commerce solution provider for any website and social netowrk, large or small. Led by Bob McNulty, a visionary in both online e-commerce and through traditional brick and mortar retail, LocalAdLink is positioned to create the largest Local Ad Network on the world wide web.
Since the first emergence of the internet as a worldwide marketplace, the great advantage of internet marketing has been its ability to reach customers around the globe but until now there has never been a way to unite local communities, local customers and local businesses all together. People turn to the internet for information, and now 63% off all people research online before making a purchase at their local store.
The last few years have seen a tremendous expansion in the power of online social communities such as MySpace, Facebook and BOOMj. Hundreds of millions of people are linked in and sharing their thoughts, opinions and lives with each other, creating a vast marketplace and an unmatched opportunity for ad exposure. However, the cost of maintaining an advertising campaign on a major community is far beyond the budget of most small businesses, and the market has been skewed towards companies which can profit by large scale advertising, and against local companies…
What, then, is the local solution to the global market? The answer lies in pin-pointed marketing, working on the people-to-people model already present in online social communities.
As a destination website, LocalAdLink already serves over 14 million businesses across the nation. Consumers can review businesses and services and read the reviews of others. However it doesn’t stop there…. LocalAdLink has created a game-changing opportunity with its exclusive advertising technology – imagine going to the most popular websites and seeing your ad – geo-targeted to your community and relevant to your audience. LocalAdLink has created this advertising network and created an affordable and easy solution for business to appear on websites such as Google, Yahoo, MSN, MySpace, Facebook, Fandango, Rolling Stone, BOOMj, HGTV.com, MarthaStewart.com, NFL.com, Tarot.com, Photography.com, Mommy.com, Gardens.com and hundreds more.
Currently, as part of this major initiative, LocalAdLink is training thousands of advertising representatives across the country to help find the best local businesses. The goal is to help develop these local marketplaces, helping small businesses grow by providing them with new customers in their areas. Given the current state of the economy, many consumers will wish to buy local and support their community’s businesses. Advertising representatives for LocalAdLink can help build a network of growth within their own hometowns, while receiving reward dollars to be spent with local affiliated businesses.
