LOMA Partner Program

The Local Online Marketing Association
Can Help Your Members And Clients Achieve
The Online Success They Want And Deserve...

If you’re a business or organization involved with local businesses — and their prosperity is a concern to you! — then the LOMA Online Success Course should be of keen interest to your business or organization. By providing your members or clients with access to our comprehensive resources (more on that in a moment!), you will be giving them essential tools they need to prosper now, and in the future.

This has great benefits for your business or organization, too.

Let me explain...

Of course you can benefit financially by partnering with LOMA.

LOMA offers a generous profit sharing program that can help build your “balance sheet” while helping your members and clients build theirs.

Financially, this is a win-win-win proposition.

But the real benefit may be...

A stronger and stable membership/client base

Reduced questions and problems associated with members attempting to market online effectively

Less resources dedicated to keeping up with, and keeping members/clients informed about, rapidly changing online technology

Help in protecting your members and clients from the “online vultures” who are ready, willing, and able to take advantage of the uninformed local business person!

By offloading Internet education to LOMA, you not only benefit financially, but have the opportunity to reduce the “overhead” required to service your members and clients.

Special note — if you’re a supplier to local businesses you are well aware that stronger businesses sell more, and in turn, buy more. No big secret there. So it stands to reason that helping your clients sell more can help make your business stronger, too. And when you think about it, there are very few areas in business where the potential to expand is greater than it is online.

The examples of small, local, “brick and mortar” businesses expanding online to become much larger national, and even international operations, are really not that usual. But for that to happen, it takes an understanding of how to build an effective — and effective is the key word here! — web presence.

Building stronger communities

A little bit of a personal note here. The founders of LOMA, are big believers in a strong local business community that has the ability to bring money into the community and keep it there when possible.

They are also very much “champions” of entrepreneurs and small businesses and want to see them succeed to their full potential.

Helping local businesses market online accomplishes that goal by enabling business to expand their territories, increase profits, and reduce overhead.

There are lifestyle implications, too.

A more efficient, stable, and profitable business means more attention and resources for family and community.

It’s as simple as that.

Marketing online is also a “low impact” activity that can increase the prosperity of a community without adding undue demands on community services and infrastructure.

If you’re a community leader, I believe encouraging “development” online is something worth exploring, and can greatly benefit the community as a whole. To those goals, LOMA stands ready, willing, and able to help!

About the Local Online Marketing Association

First off, let me just say that the educational resources available through LOMA were a monumental projecct.

Sure, we could have done the easy thing and just rambled on about a bunch of technical Internet stuff like advertising on Google and Yahoo, getting ranked in the search engines, tracking traffic, etc.

And for sure, we do cover those things, and much more, in detail — but — none of that will do your members or clients any good until they have a basic understanding of how to assemble all of those parts into a workable system.

And that’s what has been missing from most Internet marketing “education” — you get a bunch of technical “tricks” with nothing to hold it all together.

Consequently, business owners who are trying to make use of the Internet quickly get “lost” in the techno-details and often end up doing the worst thing — nothing!

Or, they just slap up an ineffective web site and forget about the whole deal.

Or worst of all, they get linked up with some web designer who doesn’t know anything about marketing (most don’t) and end paying large amounts of money for a “web presence” that simply doesn’t work.

At LOMA, we seen this happen.

Over and over.

Which is why we created the Local Online Marketing Association.

The benefits of marketing online are enormous when you get it right. You can precisely target your advertising, market on “autopilot” virtually for free, greatly expand the effectiveness of your offline marketing, and so much more, but here’s the problem...

It can all get complicated and overwhelming unless you take it step-by-step within the framework of a simple system for online success.

And that is what we have done in this course — make everything simple, so your members and clients can design a system to fit their business and implement it as they are able and see fit. Your members and clients will be able to begin with a few simple things — start getting results — then move on to the next level.
