Imagine having 12+ sales reps working for you, for free...

 Local Business Network (LBN) coming to the Ypsilanti/Belleville, MI area! 



As a local chapter development director for the 734 (area code) area, I'm based out of Belleville. Just wanted to write this blog entry to let it be known we (LBN) are forming yet another chapter in the Ypsilanti area over the next several weeks. It is much easier to discuss this in person or over the phone but the outline is below if you prefer. 

Our meetings are twice a month and last roughly one and a half hours. As this is a newly forming chapter we are still determining if we want a morning, afternoon, or evening time slot. Our current/temporary location will be Woodstone Grill just off of 94 and Rawsonville near K-Mart and Dunham's. 

Anyone who has the ability to host the meeting has their membership fee waived. All other members pay $290. for the 1st 6 months then $240. for every six months after, unless they hold an officer's position. Again feel free to call or email for specifics. You can visit twice with no obligation to see if you even feel there is a "fit" for you. Testimonials http://www.locbusnet.com/testimonials.html 

We prefer local companies so we can build that strong proud neighborhood appeal. 

[NO interest in this area? You can still reach out and we can design and build a chapter around you.] 

Every single member that has joined us and put forth even little effort has seen tremendous growth in their business and in turn their income. We have a perfect fit for both sales professionals and business owners alike.

On top of networking we offer so much more to our members like one-on-one opportunities with any other member, numerous trainings, business social after hours, educational seminars, associate memberships to many business organizations like local chambers of commerce, MBPA and many others. http://locbusnet.com/partners.html

We are holding one of our larger functions on Tuesday October 20th in Southfield from 9:00 am - Noon. Email me for a free pass at Tracy@GetFound-on-Google.Com even though this event is free you can find more details about it here at http://www.locbusnet.com/online_payments.html 

We are currently looking to fill the following categories: Business/Law Attorney, Commercial Real Estate, Telecom/Internet Service Provider, Insurance, CPA/Accountant, Printer, Banking/Credit Union and more. 

Now for the important but a little bit more boring information...

LBN is a business referral organization whose primary purpose is to exchange qualified business referrals.  Founded in 1999, the organization presently has over 40 chapters http://www.locbusnet.com/chapters.html and nearly 700 members in Southeastern Michigan. 

LBN allows only one person in each business category, so our members all enjoy exclusivity in their category within their local chapter. Chapters meet twice a month to share information and referrals.  We host over 1000 meetings a year and encourage our members to visit as many chapter meetings as they would like as long as there are no direct competitors.  As a result of the training we provide in our unique system of “power networks”, many of our members report 20%, 30% or more of their business from LBN referrals.  Some have received over $1 million in referrals.

We look forward to helping you grow your business!

A few more simple steps to improve your online presence!


By Tracy Congdon

Once the keyword research and competitive analysis are done (since these are your very first steps in creating or improving your online presence or to “getting found online”), we can move on to a couple more.
Creating your citation, or how your company name, address, phone number, and website appear, is another overlooked step. You want it uniform across the entire web. Each correctly created listing gives you and your website more authority on the internet, increasing your placement.
For example your phone number could appear 734-252-9014 or 734.252.9014 or the more traditional (734) 252-9014. It doesn’t really matter how it appears as long as all of your business listings are identical, down to the placement of a period. Business listing websites like Merchant Circle, Yelp, and Citysearch will pull from Google, Yahoo, Bing or other reputable sites and create their own business listings for you. Their goal is to drive web traffic to them when a search is performed. These listings are not always identical, creating erroneous citations. These should be claimed and corrected as soon as possible. I created a tool to check your listings along with your online presence and posted it here http://goo.gl/8fQE2 (this link was created with Google’s URL shortener.) This link will open an application I have placed inside of my Facebook business page.
When you create certain business listings you must also claim them to make them effective. Feel free to email me for a complete listing of these sites or for additional help.
According to NYTimes.Com, 68 percent of consumers look for a company’s Facebook business page before they choose to do business with them. If you are not found there, those Facebook users will find your competitor and give them a call instead. Creating a correct Facebook business page, NOT a personal page, for your business will only benefit you. If you are not on Facebook, at least make sure your business is. There are companies, like us, that will create and monitor your Facebook page for you. We monitor over 35 pages and see to it they are up to date along with being found and generating positive traffic.
Tracy Congdon, president of Get Found on Google, has 15 years of business-to-business sales experience and over 5 years in business development. During that time, Tracy has extensively studied internet marketing, picture and video marketing along with consistently staying on top of Google’s numerous trends and changes in the way they rank websites. Combining these techniques gives him many powerful tools to place companies on the first page of a Google search for their industry and area in an organic (not paid advertising) search.
