Profile Information

Company or Business Name:
www.thelocalindex.com
Business Overview:
As the economy continues to worsen, small business (www.thelocalindex.com/main/aboutus.php) owners can only expect profits to decrease. But what if they could build their customer base through a new type of online presence and effectively market (http://www.thelocalindex.com/main/joinus.php) and compete against large box stores that have "big bucks" to spend on Local Advertising (http://www.thelocalindex.com/main/joinus.php)

(http://www.thelocalindex.com/main/joinus.php)

This is the concept behind The Local Index, a new online community that recently launched in Philadelphia and is heading to cities nationwide. By offering local businesses a free online presence where they can market their products and services online, it hopes to level the playing field for small-to-medium size businesses so they can attract more local consumers.

"Who wouldn't rather support a local business instead of a nameless corporation that doesn't invest in the local economy," said The Local Index CEO and Founder Wesly Michel. "If you knew what sneakers the sporting goods store down the street was selling and how much they cost, wouldn't you rather go there than drive further to a big box store"

Research supports the fact that people do want to shop locally. Recent studies show that 70 percent of Internet shoppers search for local stores before making online purchases.

It also makes sense to shop locally, especially during bad economic times, because three times more money stays in the local economy when you buy goods and services from locally owned businesses instead of large chain stores, according to the Local Institute for Self Reliance.

The Local Index helps market business owners by creating attractive and informative Web sites without costing them a dime, or having to do the work them selves, giving them a higher chance for success. Business owners sign up to be a part of The Local Index in their city and provide whatever information they want to place on the new online local marketplace. Consumers log onto the site and search for businesses by name, location, products or services sold. The Local Index expects this will result in an equal playing field for small-to-medium size businesses and a boost to the local economy.

Hello Wes,

Please accept my invitation to be my friend and connect with 25,500+ black professionals that are supporting each other's businesses (mlm’s are welcomed). It is a powerful group with lots of benefits and opportunity to connect with other powerful black professionals and their families all around the world. We are currently in the pre-launch phase, so can you imagine what's going to happen after the launch this month in Atlanta, GA.

This is one of the hottest, new websites on the Internet, called www.globalblackbusinessnetwork.com. Black people are uniting to network and support black businesses. It's really great. If you’re ready to be a part of a movement that will create wealth in our communities (that means you) I encourage you to click on the link, JOIN and list your business/service (for FREE) for exposure and reach for your products and/or services. This is also an awesome resource to find and buy black products/services from black professionals (join for FREE). Visit the site and check out the businesses were brothers and sistas are part of this GROWING movement.

Be blessed,

Barb B, MBA

Welcome back Wes,

Have you seen http://www.kijiji.com? It's an Ebay company attempting to compete with Craigslist but want to make it a local free classifieds.

A lot of people are complaining about what they mean by local. They have it divided by state lines. So if you're like me and the closest city is on the other side of the state line, you're out of luck. Unless of course I set up a bogus zip code in another account.

If those brainiacs ever get the clue that local to me is a circle around my house with nothing to do with state lines I'll check it out again. Just thought it might be a resource for you and perhaps some of your customers.
