Complete Package

So, you say you want it all? For a long time I've suggested that AreaGuides meet all the Internet needs of local businesses. Now, more than ever, we can deliver on that promise. Here is a list of

Complete Package

the Internet tools we can now offer at affordable rates and their purposes:
  1. Dynamic Multi-Media Wepage - Also referred to as a "Landing Page" this presents the business in a multi-media format with video clips and a slide show with coupon options and more AND plugs the sponsor into the AreaGuides portal(s) for their area. The page is also optimized for google searches to pull in even more customers into your business! Contact me to get started.
  2. Protect Your Brand - Make sure you pick an on-line brand that the .com name is available for and available on the major social sites (twitter, facebook, YouTube, flickr, friendfeed and more) We can help with all of this!
  3. Google Site - For the sponsor that needs a multi-page powerful website. This is built on a Google sites account and sponsors can easily update or we can do it for them. (example: This site! CraigShipp.com)
  4. Google - Local Business Center - At no additional charge we will plug you into Google's Local Business Center. This will generate even more traffic to your AreaGuides Dynamic Webpage!
  5. Blog - Building a Blog using Google is quick and easy and allows the sponsor to have a quick and easy way to add content to their website at no additional cost to us and without the possibility of damaging their Dynamic Webpage. We setup and build the Blog so that all the sponsor needs to do is post updates.  We also make sure there are links to other major sites in the network to cross promote the Blog. We can even add the A-Z Directory to the Blog. (see example: craigshipp.blogspot.com)
  6. Twitter - A Twitter account is quick and easy to setup and link to the sponsor's webpage and gives the sponsor another way to get short messages out. (example: twitter.com/craigshipp (also use twitcam.com, hootsuite.com and friendfeed.com/craigshipp)
  7. LIVE TV - Now we can offer LIVE TV shows to sponsors that wish to take FULL advantage of the new media. Shows are recorded and can then be added to their webpage. (example techTVshow.com)
  8. e-commerce - our e-commerce package is a great plug-in for those wishing to actually take orders on-line.
  9. Domain - The best possible domain name registered and pointed to the sponsor's page.
  10. Marketing e-mail address - For example a printer in Frederick County can have printer@frederick.com - a powerful marketing tool. Such addresses are reserved for Promotional Partners. Contact me and I can fill you in on the details.
  11. PixelPipe.com, Ping.fm, Skitch.com, 12Seconds.tv, hootsuite.com, facebook,  friendfeed, yelp.com, AudioBoo.fm, tinychat.com, brightkite.com and Evernote.com
  12. Social Media Groups - add your content and interact with folks with similar interests. Click Here for some of the groups the AreaGuides Network manages.
If you are a working media professional, website or graphic designer, advertising sales rep or anyone interested in the NEW MEDIA we should talk. Contact me to learn more.

The message is we need to help our sponsors implement these tools. We are really looking out for them and that we have addressed ALL their Internet needs. This results in higher sponsor satisfaction levels and better website performance.
