		<description>Is the challenge &quot;they don’t need to spend any money to get results&quot;

Or is the challenge that many SMB&#039;s &#039;Don&#039;t Know what they &#039;Don&#039;t Know&#039;?

Unless a SMB owner/manager has an inkling of the benefits they won&#039;t even think about it.

How is it communicated, how are they educated!

On my blog I did a post that on an acquaintances SMB website, well;

&quot;....Perhaps through advertising, a sales call, or even a referral, someone remembers just a basic part about your business. Unfortunately they cannot remember all the details.

They already know you exist. But they cannot find you ...&quot;

His is another case where they are invisible .......

Regards and thanks!

		<description>Elliot,

Wow. Isn&#039;t that interesting. The intersection of old and new media is something that needs to be addressed at deeper levels by all marketers in general. 

I feel part of my calling is to help the little guy understand that it is available to them but that it isn&#039;t free. Little guys seem to have some entitlement that they don&#039;t need to spend any money to get results. That&#039;s just bad business acumen. For those who get it and see that the investment can yield there is endless opportunity out there as your story exhibits.

		<description>I agree :-)

I have been looking to get a professional photo taken to replace the very bad image on my own blog.

A few weeks ago a full search in Google did not result in anything conveniently close.

Just last week a hand delivered flyer was dropped in my mailbox of a professional photographer was dropped in my mailbox. The place was just a few blocks away!

Since the flyer had the website I went looking.

Very pretty site, great photographic images he had done. But almost no text. Zip. Nada.

A few blocks away, but a million miles from Google.
