WebVisible launches campaign to help small businesses stay strong through healthy Internet presence

Free consultation and reduced set-up fees help businesses overcome economic challenges; win new customers through Internet advertising

IRVINE, Calif., Apr. 7, 2009 – WebVisible, Inc., a worldwide leader in local online advertising, today launched a campaign designed to help small business owners leverage the power of the Internet to gain new customers and survive the challenging economy.

The “Stay Strong in Business Sale” campaign offers first-time advertisers a free business marketing consultation. Additionally, for businesses that can benefit from online advertising, $150 of their setup fees (approximately 50%) will be applied to advertising media buys, providing more marketing power in the first month of their campaign. This valuable online marketing package includes ad creation, keyword selection and geo-targeting, landing Web page design, call tracking number and publishing the advertisement(s) to all major search engines.

WebVisible provides fully managed Internet marketing campaign services that build a powerful online presence for small businesses, giving them high visibility on search engines such as Google, Yahoo!, MSN, and Ask to more effectively compete with larger organizations and win customers.

"The current economic conditions can hit small businesses hard. And many of them simply don't have the bandwidth or resources to initiate the type of local online advertising strategy that will help them find the new customers they need to keep their businesses strong," said Kevin M. Ryan, WebVisible chief marketing officer. "At our core, we’re small business advocates. We leverage the power of the Internet to help them find new opportunity. In fact, Internet analyst firm eMarketer just called search engine marketing the ‘ultimate online acquisition tool.’ We want to make it available to more business owners so they can stay strong and be positioned to skyrocket as the economy improves."

WebVisible online advertising services drive guaranteed traffic to its advertisers’ Web sites and provide tools that maximize the opportunity to turn those visitors into customers. This creates predictable and sustainable business opportunity that can be the muscle to keep a lot of small businesses going. WebVisible is determined to make online advertising more readily available to as many small businesses as possible.
