A word to the wise. If you walk into the Verizon store located on hover road at 1067 South Hover Road, Longmont, CO, you will see at least two large signs on the inside of their facility that say 4G network. Observed them today on 6/17/11).
Yes their select phones/smartphones will work on the 4G network, but be advised that that I was unable to connect to any Vresioin 4G network as I drove all over Longmont.
This example of marketing/advertising is disappointing indeed…

Longmont Commercial Real Estate has entered into a marketing agreement with Longmont Business Marketing to market commercial, industrial, and office space property listings on the internet for the Longmont area.
“We believe LBM not only has the solutions to drive potential customers to our website through Google and other search engines, but they also have some very interesting social network marketing strategies that we’re interested in.”
“In two short months, we went from no web presence at all, to top of the list for several of our keyword strings in Google organic search results.” “As a result, we’re starting to see significant traffic to our website. ”
“Our ongoing marketing relationship will help increase visibility not only through the search engines, but through social media channels as well. ” “We’re very excited about this venture.”
We are operating in what has been called the ‘New Economy’. There are two critical components to this New Economy that have a direct impact on small businesses:
1.Business is moving to the Internet at a pace faster than ever imagined. Companies are utilizing websites and on-line social networking tools to build markets, prospect for new customers, and ultimately drive revenue and profit. Your customers are now using the web to find products and services – making advertising and new business leads several times more expensive through traditional media than through on-line channels.
2.Consumers are reducing spending and in many cases markets are contracting or static. In the New Economy, business is gained by changing buying behaviors of consumers who are currently buying your product in your market but from other sources (your competitors).
In the New Economy, viable businesses have websites. If you business does not have a website that is fully integrated with your sales processes, you are missing opportunities and spending too much money doing marketing.
As Longmont Business Marketing (LBM) brings “local business” customers into their Internet marketing maintenance portfolio, customers receive a very powerful marketing service that grows in effectiveness over time.
LBM customers business’ “web presence” is integrated into a comprehensive network of local businesses. This is an innovative concept where LBM customers can leverage each other’s web presence to generate new customers and revenue. OK, but how does that work?
There are essentially three core components to this solution:
- WEBSITE SEO
(SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION). SEO allows potential customers to locate your website through Internet search engines, Internet Business Directories, and other Internet properties geared toward business. This establishes your business’ foundational “web presence”.
- BUSINESS SOCIAL NETWORKING.
LBM establishes your business profile pages on social networking platforms such as Facebook, MerchantCircle, and many other social platforms, further expanding LBM customer’s web presence.
- LBM CROSS-LINKS CUSTOMER’S BUSINESSES TOGETHER
across these web platforms to create a “local network of businesses” in the Longmont, Boulder, and front range area. LBM also cross links all their customers websites together, further strengthening the local endorsement network.
The keycomponent to the process is the third bullet item “LBM CROSS-LINKS CUSTOMER’S BUSINESSES TOGETHER”.
Effectively, LBM customers are endorsing each other’s business via the web, creating an expanded and locally-focused marketing campaign for each other’s business that continually grows as LBM’s customer base expands. Because LBM’s maintenance customers are under an exclusive contract, they effectively lock out other local businesses in the same industry.

Product name – Sales Process Alignment:
Moving your company’s website up a list of on-line search results is not a stand alone deliverable. Your website could rank #1 on every search result but if it is not linked to your sales processes, marketing strategy, and customer life-cycle, you will not get results.
With our Sales Process Alignment product, we will assess your web presence in the context of your overall ‘marketing mix’ and how your investments line up with customer behavior. If you are investing a large percent of your marketing dollars in an area that is driving a very small portion of your business, your marketing mix is not optimized and your sales processes are not fully integrated. We will track your customer behavior and ensure that you are focusing investments where it matters most.
We will provide you with tools that will enable you to re-allocate or reduce marketing costs, saving money and ensuring that marketing investments are driving revenue and profit for your company.

Kyle and Danielle have a great practical knowledge of search engine optimization and how to best position my business in front of qualified customers for my business – at a great value. They also have been very helpful in tutoring me on the ins and outs of social media and best practice when navigating my internet initiatives in the most efficient way. Thankyou!
I feel very fortunate to have found Longmont Business Marketing for my web design and SEO. They are affordable and provide tangible results like no other marketing firm I have used. My organic search has improved to the first page and my google maps results are outstanding, usually #1 or #2. Previously, we were either on the second or third page of an organic search. I couldn’t be happier. Easy to work with and make their deadlines.
This team is great to work with and well worth the investment. If you have a great website and nobody can find it, what’s the point right? I regularly get inquiries because I’m on the front page of searches and that’s because LBM did a fantastic job. Highly recommended.
Kyle and his team have made all the difference in helping the phones ring at the pharmacy. SEO matters and his team knows how to get it done. Professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend.
Commited I have to say that Kyle is very commited to his clients being successful. He is very straight forward about what he can and can’t do, or at least honest if he isn’t sure an certain approach to marketing will work for your business. He goes out of his way for his clients and does allot of value adds to his job. The mark of a successful person is doing more than you are paid for, I think that describes Kyle.
