How easy are you to find online?Most people nowadays turn straight to Google when they want to find an answer to their problems. No matter what your size or type of business, you need to be concerned about whether you can be found - and whether you are convincing as a potential supplier - when people are searching. Sharon Wilding and Jim Hunt of The Purple Edge Marketing will help you understand what it takes to be more visible online – even if you don’t have your own website. We’ll look at why you should make the most of free listings in directories and Google Places, as well as how to turn your website into an effective marketing tool.
