"How Are You Perceived?"

In today’s ever evolving cyber-space world, your business’ brand and reputation are more important than ever. Gone are the days of the Consumer pulling out the “Yellow Pages” and searching for a company to provide a service or product. In the good old days, Consumers would often buy from the company who they perceived as the “Biggest” and Best”. This selection process was very often driven by the simple process of buying the biggest Yellow Page ad your company could afford, positioning your company on one of the first pages of a particular service or product section in the Yellow Pages. I’m sure all of us know at least one person who sold Yellow Pages ads (and they made a lot of money doing it too!) This process was the first of many evolutions, leading to today’s practice of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). This is simply the process by which companies move their web sites to the first few pages of the various search engines like Google and Yahoo which are so widely used today. Do you know what is being said about your company, your employees, your customer service group or even the CEO? Brand awareness is a necessity in today’s market. You’ve worked hard to build your company’s reputation which is GREAT. But don’t stop there.
