SMART Businesses Do This..‪.‬ Adam Lyons

When it comes to brick-and-mortar businesses, especially those offering in-person experiences like healthcare, home repairs, food, or fitness industries, capturing local customers is essential. 

That's because consumers make their spending decisions not only on the quality of products and services but also on proximity. Hence, local area marketing is absolutely essential. So it's time to work on targeting local customers. 

Today, I have three exceptional guests who are experts in marketing their respective businesses in their local markets. Join me in welcoming Dr. Chavez, Andrew, and Remy!

“You'll be surprised how often the best local ad is just gonna be, “By the way, I exist. Here's how to find me. And here's your free gift if you reach out.”

One of the biggest challenges for business owners and salespeople is making more sales. Generating leads requires hard work, especially when you do not have a system for it. Turning those leads into a closed deal is equally difficult. But the best salespeople have a formula that is repeatable and scalable. That’s how they win new business. So what if you were given a proven formula that helps you position yourself to make more sales? 
Today, I have four fantastic people with different backgrounds, but they all have something in common. They each have a unique selling point, and they know how to use it to pitch their products and services. So let's welcome them!

Tune in to SMART Businesses Do THIS to hear these wonderful people make their pitch to make more money!

Authority is a term that gets thrown around a lot in the business sphere. Of course, your company must have authority. But what exactly does it mean, and why is it so important?

And how can you build brand authority? We will talk about that in this episode, so make sure you stick around.
