Mobile Marketing: Is Your Business Mobile Ready?

Is Your Website Mobile Ready?   Do you know that on average people search Google on a local level 3,387 times for every 1 time people search the yellow pages? Do you know 82% of all people search online on a local level take some offline action after they search?   This means each day potential clients and customers visit a specific location or make a purchase of a product or service that they were initially searching for.   Each day they find either you or your competitors.   Do you realize that more than 1/3 of all Google searches are done on a cell phone?   Plus, when people search on their cell phones most searches are based off of the person’s location via the GPS in their cell phones. This means if the person is within a 5 mile radius of your business, when they search, your business listing needs to be at the top of the search results, so these red hot prospects can find you.   Is your website mobile ready?
