Yao Ming’s restaurant, YAO Restaurant & Bar in Houston, Texas (<a href=”http://YAOrestaurant.com”>http://YAOrestaurant.com</a>) has increased their online ad distribution with a LocalAdLink advertising partnership. LocalAdLink Brand Builder, Mary Le Sueur, who has been working hard and doing a great job selling ads, approached YAO Restaurant & Bar Manager Nathan Briggs. She presented the easy and affordable LocalAdLink advertising solution to connect their restaurant with their local customers.

Mary Le Sueur explains, “Since I have been with LocalAdLink I have enjoyed connecting businesses with the local community alongside the additional income source my efforts have gained for myself. While I was covering my local area, offering the LocalAdLink solution, I stopped at YAO Restaurant & Bar. Joined by my LocalAdLink associate Nancy Harrison, we were able to meet with Restaurant Manager, Nathan Briggs and introduced the LocalAdLink solution.”

Mr. Briggs tells us, “When Mary and Nancy came in and spoke with me about the opportunity to reach more customers in my local area for such a low cost; I had no reservations giving it a try. With the current state of the economy, many businesses like ours are looking for extra ways to reach our local community. When Mary and Nancy explained the packages available I agreed to purchase one. The results have been impressive. We are very satisfied with the LocalAdLink service and I highly recommend any business to take advantage of this opportunity.”

LocalAdLink is an incredible product. If you are looking to enhance your online presence to generate LEADS in a cost effective manner, look no further. I had an average presence online. I decided I needed more traffic to increase the amount of leads that I was getting. I opted to go with LocalAdLink to reach out to clients that mattered most: ones in MY local market. I targeted a radius of zip codes that I wanted to do business in. Almost immediately I started getting results. I was receiving calls and online leads that were directly attributed to the criteria I had set up on LocalAdLink. I saw an increase of 25% in my website registrations and closed 2 deals within 90 days. I highly recommend giving them a try. - Tim Houk, Keller Williams Redstick Partners

“I am so glad that I was introduced to LocalAdLink as a platform to bring my business to the Marketplace. I own a successful Floor covering store in a very competitive market, so getting in front of the customers when they are looking for my products is very important and LocalAdLink does just that. I found the set up phase of my new LAL site simple and was up and running quickly. Within about 2 weeks, I did a generic search and found my store listed at the top of the first page on Google…WOW! I love the features available from Coupons to videos all in one place. I spend thousands on TV, Print and Phone book advertising and now realize the incredible value of LocalAdLink as I build my brand in the market place. I have even shared LocalAdLink with many of my friends who also own businesses. I look forward to a great year in a down economy!” - Bill Daley, President/Owner, Abbey Carpet Gallery

“I wanted to drop you a line thanking you and your company for the great service that you have provided to me and my company. As you know, I work with a large National company and I require not only local and regional exposure, but national exposure as well. I have literally spent thousands of dollars for years in website, design, maintenance, and was aware of the need for SEO, but simply did not have the time and budget to do that. The only other option that I had to get exposure on a national level was far too expensive and also required blogging, website updating, and additional marketing that was just way too time-consuming, expensive, and took me away from my specialized skills that derived income.

After working with Beyond Commerce and LocalAdLink for just over 90 days, I am greatly pleased with the branding and exposure that I have received for pennies on the dollar – in comparison to print ads, radio spots, and other online marketing programs.

In addition, some of my vendors and suppliers have taken my advice and have also received great local exposure for their companies on the internet – and the funny thing is, they do not even have a website!
I believe that this company and the vision behind it are unparalleled and I am glad to have been introduced to it in the early stages. Once someone gets their arms around this, only then can they truly understand the absolute power to brand and expose their business online. I am available for anyone who would like to speak with me.” - Patrick Hutchinson, KW Commercial

“I began advertising with Local Ad Link in December. Within ten days of my advertisement showing up on the Local Ad Link site, I appeared on Google. Two days after seeing my business listing on Google, I began receiving phone. That first week I had three calls and scheduled three appointments. This continued for several weeks, and I, therefore, feel comfortable in saying I receive 2 – 3 calls a week. Further, not all of these clients were solely from Google; they were from several different websites. One week in January, my statistics were such that 80% of my business was from my LAL listing. I have done several different advertising campaigns prior to advertising with LAL, none of which I would consider successful and/or worth the expense.” - Diane Lane Gruenewald, Licensed Therapist

“I’m writing this to thank LocalAdLink.com for providing me a very inexpensive way to market my storage business online. I had a website but it really wasn’t helping me to advertise or grow my business. One day someone told me about localadlink.com so I did some research and decided that since there was no contract and it was very inexpensive, that I would try it out. Almost immediately I saw increased traffic to my website which ultimately resulted in increased revenue to my business. I have been VERY satisfied with LocalAdLink and have actually referred numerous friends and business owners.” - B.J., Riverside Boat and Self Storage

“Dear LocalAdLink,

I am so excited to have been introduced to a new way of branding and exposing my business on the Internet! I am a Realtor practicing in San Francisco, California. I have spent years branding and exposing my business via print advertising. This was great for many years as my listings were selling quickly and I did not usually advertise for more than 1 month for any one listing. When September 2008 hit (Stock Market Crash/ Bail Out Bond Crisis), my print advertising budget went to $20,000 to cover the remainder of the year. I had 17 listings worth $30,000,000. Needless to say – I had promised my seller’s I would advertise their homes along with my business until their listings sold. OMG was I ever over committed! In Jan 2009, I was introduced to LocalAdLink.com. What a life saver! At that time I had lots of sellers, but virtually no buyers and was spending a ton of money I had yet to see a return on. I began advertising on LocalAdlInk.com. Within the first 45 days, I had received 2 phone calls.

The first one came from a couple in Colorado Springs who were looking for a Single Family home in the range of $400,000.

I was unable to assist them due to the higher price points in San Francisco, but spent some time getting to know them on the phone and asked how they found me. They found me on www.LocalAdLink.com – the actual directory.

Next – A woman from London rang me. She was on her computer while visiting San Francisco and came across my contact information while writing an email to her sister on Gmail, requesting her help with her “San Francisco Real Estate” search. I suppose she clicked on my listing that popped up because of the contextual reading technology your company uses. She interviewed me and then hired me to represent her. I took her out looking at $400,000 – $500,000 studio condos on the North side of town. She decided on the one and only building she wanted to live and just 30 days ago, a 1 bedroom condo with bay views popped up. We wrote an all CASH offer and competed with 3 others. Our offer has since been accepted and we are scheduled to close in 2 weeks.

Just 90 days into my Branding and Exposing Campaign on LocalAdLink.com, I received an email from an investor in Oregon who found my Real Estate business by Googling, “San Francisco Luxury Real Estate”.

Again the contextual reading technology and my 50 Zip Code listing had been pushed out to the 3rd party ad network. I could hardly believe it! I interviewed this prospective client for 2 weeks and have since been hired to locate 5-7 Luxury Properties between $1,000,000 – $1,500,000.He’s also an all CASH buyer. We have written an offer on one property and are currently in “counter stage”. I have identified 3 others he is considering currently.

I am so grateful to www.LocalAdlink.com for the exposure it has given my business. I have many photos of my listings and a short video directing people to my website, how cool is that? While many of my colleagues are leaving the business I’m negotiating deals! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” - Wendy Vandersteen, San Francisco, CA

“To Whom It May Concern:

As co proprietor of Zoria in Sarasota, Florida I would like to share my enthusiasm regarding LocalAdLink. I feel that online community advertising is quickly becoming the way of the world. Everything from promotions, to special events, to random acts of kindness for the local community, can be taken care of quickly and efficiently in house. I feel very confident being on board with LocalAdLink in these early stages. So I am looking forward to the rapid growth of this new company. And to reaching out to those in the local, and global community too who have not come to know us at Zoria yet. This will ultimately increase our client base as well as bring back our regulars to save economic crisis.

By utilizing our billboard alone, we brought new attention to LocalAdLink and we were very impressed with the amount of coupons brought in after only our first two weeks on the site.”

We are a full-service advertising agency that is putting a substantial focus on selling LocalAdLink ads, so we needed to ‘balance’ both of our capabilities—production “services” like web sites, video, graphic design, and trade shows, with the “product” of online ads.

Having had an ‘ad’ for a few months, the results were good, but after the addition of SearchBoost, the results have been PHENOMENAL! We are on the FIRST PAGE of ALL the major search engines EVERY TIME we do a search with a couple of our terms—and this is happening only after a week of being “live” with SearchBoost! This ’speaks’ highly to the capabilities of the product, and to the expertise of the people LocalAdLink has on staff, by successfully accomplishing that ‘delicate’ balance. Beyond that, during the SearchBoost upgrade process, everyone we communicated with was very knowledgeable and responsive to our unique needs.

Also, the “marketing” department helped us out even more by citing that the new web site we created specifically for selling LocalAdLink had “non-compliant” terms on it. This would have inhibited us in achieving the best rankings on the search engines—or worse—our site could have been “disabled” for the serving of AdSense ads until a Google employee would have manually inspected and approved our site. This is something that might have taken weeks to months to complete!

In addition to all this, we have a Google AdWords Qualified Professional on staff, Meaghan McCann, who has been ’specializing’ in AdWords for more than two years. It has been her experience that the expense of hiring her to manage an online advertising campaign for most small businesses has been cost prohibitive for them. LocalAdLink has turned out to be the perfect alternative for her to offer them. Not only does LocalAdLink place ads on its impressive proprietary and ‘partner’ networks, but with Search Boost, it more than DOUBLES THE REACH of a basic AdWords campaign—all at a comparatively low cost. LocalAdLink has given her the ability to help struggling small business owners, in the greater Detroit area, to build their online presence without breaking their advertising budget.
Kudo’s to LocalAdLink!

SEARCH BOOST is amazing! I have sold and utilized different forms of online marketing products in the past but this SEARCH BOOST enhancement by LocalAdLink is amazing. I have two of my clients that purchased SEARCH BOOST last week and within 3 days they are showing up on Page 1 and Page 2 of Google and Yahoo. That was FAST!!! If you want a business to get listed on the Internet fast, I recommend you purchase a LocalAdLink Advertising Package with SEARCH BOOST today!!! Over the next 3 weeks I plan to get all of my clients on this amazing product. Thanks LocalAdLink! My customers are thrilled!

“Hi Bob,

I just wanted to let you know how GRATEFUL…I am to this company.
I have received just exceptional training. Unlike other companies I have been involved with in the past. In addition,
I have sent a Special Thank You to Paul Croskrey, Who I think is one of the best if not, “THE BEST” trainer for LAL.
Here is the letter I sent to Mr.Croskery just wanted you to know. You have a GREAT Team of Trainers.” — “Hi Paul,

I wanted to let you know just how AWESOME your training is. First of all let me say…that all the training has been really good with LAL. However with all of the training I have found YOURS to be “A Cut Above” the rest. Reason being, I have only been with LAL for one month learning all I can. I sold 4 ads after being with LAL my first 2 weeks (Which was my warm market….fyi). At that time I put my ads together the best I could. The reason I think your training is so OUTSTANDING is after being on your training call. You instructed us to place keywords in certain places in our ads. Along with other keyword information and a verity of very helpful instructions. After hearing your training I went into each of my ads and did what you instructed. I was AMAZED. After 24/48 hrs. one of my ads for CK. Interiors came up on Google in the 3rd position and the other one came up on Yahoo 1st position when I did the search. realized then that it was because of your AWESOME training and YOUR knowledge that got my clients to rank with relevant keywords and strategic places of keywords. etc. that you taught ME. I m forever grateful for your time and help to make LocalAdLink Reps …the “Best We Can Be” with ads that your clients deserve.
I am looking forward to MORE OF YOUR TRAINING….As I can see the results from your training.

Thank You So Much!”

“Paul – Motivation comes and goes, but results are measurable and I want to let you know that we have measurable results from your training. TWO guys on our team listened to only 3 days of your training calls, took action & followed your suggestions. Each got appointments cold market and sold their first ads thanks to YOUR training ! Both Tim & Brent have spent hours and hours (weeks actually) getting ready to get ready, never believing they knew everything they needed to know and consequently never got out of their comfort zone to take action…….. UNTIL they heard YOU. They are now on a roll and inspiring the whole team …

You not only demonstrate a great results oriented method, you inspire and instill confidence. This can not be denied. Thank you, thank you.”

“Dear Don,

Thank you for your outstanding help getting me back into the i-SUPPLY area so I can work on building my store. I took your suggestion and shortened my domain name to www.thejacknjoystore.com I am now in the process of trying to get our store setup and integrated into the domain and web page. I looked in my LocalAdLink back office in the hopes your, David, and Alex’s morning presentation would be there. Not present yet. I am now working with “(BETA Getting Started-License/Store Builder (i-SUPPLY)” article. At the rate I am going I might have it up by the end of the year.

I really want to express my heart-felt thanks for your terrific help. You are definitely a “Prince among men.” I assume you live in Vegas, as I do. Hopefully our paths will cross sometime in the near future. I would like to shake your hand in thanks.”
