Search Plus Your World serves as prime evidence that online marketing is not a proverbial salad bowl, with separate pieces occasionally bumping into each other, but rather a melting pot, where the ingredients slowly meld into one. As such, marketing agencies simply cannot get by without an all-inclusive internet marketing system, which addresses the points of integration among all the channels out there.

Like I said, we at SearchMarketMe have always seen this coming. From its inception, our comprehensive online marketing training and business development program has incorporated all six of the main online channels, including: Pay-Per-Click Advertising, Search Engine Optimization, Website Architecture & Metrics, Content Creation & Revision, Social Media Marketing, and Permission Marketing (both Email Marketing and now also SMS / Text-Message Marketing). Moreover, our Agency Owner Network has many top-notch specialists who excel in one particular channel but who are nonetheless able to offer comprehensive internet marketing strategies by collaborating with other professionals in our Network. It’s a unique and rare harmony that makes our marketing Agency Owners that much more effective and successful.

1. It provides technical training on all six channels of internet marketing
2. It provides sales training for finding clients and selling internet marketing services
3. It provides training on how to operate a small marketing agency
4. It is always growing and improving. Virtually every week, we add new curriculum to the portal that is authored by our staff or the Agency Owners.

Through the collaborative efforts of SMM and the Agency Owner Network, the training content stays relevant and up-to-date. We want you to see it for yourself.

For the rest of February, you can participate in the first training session in the AOTP, “MGMT 101: The Money U.”  For free!

MGMT101 is the very first class for all new Agency Owners. It describes the proper application of the unique business model, The Money U, which allows our Agency Owners to succeed where other single operator businesses fail. It’s a powerful first lesson in how to be successful with your own internet marketing agency.

Would you like to sit in for free?

Email me today to set-up a time for your free course, and I’ll also provide you with a guided tour of the entire AOTP.

Just today I got an email from one of our newest Agency Owners who was looking for an online service for seamless and automated billing and invoicing to her clients. Before I could even respond (and I respond quickly!), she sent me another one saying, “Maybe I am psychic or maybe you said something to Ron, but I see something posted on this topic on the [Agency Owner Forum].  Thanks!” As it turns out, Ron had shared news of a service that delivered everything that she was looking for and more, and he offered to hold a conference call with the provider for several other Agency Owners who were looking for the same thing.

These almost-magical exchanges happen all the time. When our Internet Marketing Agency Owners find a new technology solution that they’ve fallen completely head-over-heels for, or when they develop a more efficient technical process, or when they work out a sales strategy that’s like shooting fish in a barrel, it seems like the first thing they want to do is share it with everyone else in the Network. While our forum is highly active, we also have multiple formal presentations every month, and all the materials are recorded and made available to the entire network for later viewing and study.

In the light-speed world of internet marketing, outperforming your competition requires constant innovation and development.  Our Agency Owners sleep soundly at night knowing that a great deal of that research, experience, and expertise is living and breathing on its own, and they’re right in the heart of it.

I think the only surprise is that it hadn’t already happened. Print has been in a long decline, and online has been enjoying rapid upward growth – and this is predicted to continue for quite some time. I think now that the tipping point has been reached, the shift may accelerate in online’s favor. Momentum is a beast.

If you want to get on the growth side of the marketing world, let’s talk about how we can help you open, operate and grow an internet marketing agency. You can reach me at boyd@searchmarketme.com

Dean Hawker partnered with us in April of 2011 to open his internet marketing agency, Encompass Online Sales & Marketing. He joined me recently for a video interview and talked about what he is enjoying most about operating his agency, how our existing network of 100+ Agency Owners supports him, as well as what he says to people who are investigating this business opportunity (Dean serves on our Evaluation Board). Dean says it is very reassuring to him, personally, to hear other people asking the very same questions he was asking about this opportunity, just last spring.

He tells them, “If you want to get into this business, and you want to get into it efficiently and, effectively, with a strong support group then you’re at the right spot. That’s the bottom line.”

We don’t want to play favorites, but Dean is one of our favorites. He jumped in with both feet, is going after (and winning) new clients, and is engaged and active in our Network. We are really enjoying working with him as he builds his business.

Read yesterday’s press release about Dean.

If you are interested in opening your own internet marketing agency, you can request information via our website or Facebook page.

Earlier this week we published a video interview featuring one of our newer Agency Owners, Michael Cornett (July, 2011). As the founder and president of Shine Online Marketing, Michael is a young but astute businessman who was the first to be admitted into our program via our innovative RollingStart(TM) financing option. For less than $5,000 upfront ($4,780 to be exact), Michael quickly launched into online marketing and is enjoying rapid success.

I remember meeting Michael at our National Conference in Nashville, Tennessee last October. He exuded a lot of enthusiasm and was never afraid to ask questions or seek assistance from the more veteran members of our Agency Owner Network. Other Agency Owners seemed to warm up immediately to his new face among them, and since then his internet marketing agency has proven to be an invaluable addition to the network. At dinner one evening, he remarked that he would have never been able to build this business without the unique financing SearchMarketMe provided. For that, I feel satisfied that SearchMarketMe made it all possible. We’re happy to share the risk with people we get excited about, and we had good reason to get excited about Michael!

If you too are interested in our RollingStart option, please read more about our financing options. If you’d like to learn more about the SearchMarketMe program, check out our online marketing agency overview.

To take the next step with SearchMarketMe, please contact our CEO, Boyd Karren, via phone at 206-445-0535, or via email at boyd@searchmarketme.com.

We’ve had people ask us exactly what this means.

What it means is that a SearchMarketMe internet marketing agency is specifically designed to grow into something more than the single-person agency it might be when initially opened. It has the inherent ability to add layers of similarly-trained employees (both salespeople and fulfillment people) and when you’re ready, a Manager who can replace you and operate the business without your day-to-day involvement. Owning a business that can operate successfully without you is especially important if you hope to ever sell your agency and “cash out’ on what you’ve built.

The SearchMarketMe Agency Owner Business Opportunity is designed to be grown and sold at some future date.

It’s quite a different mindset than the internet marketing franchises that sell you a job. In those situations,  you ARE the business, and there is no established structure or coaching for growing beyond being the business yourself. When you’re ready to move on – what do you have of value? Nothing you can try to sell to someone else, really.

Anyone who starts or buys a business should have a plan for how they will (sooner or later) get out of the business. Successful people begin “with the end in mind.” A SearchMarketMe internet marketing agency is designed with the end in mind. It is a scalable, grow-able opportunity that is designed to evolve into something you could sell at some future point.

That is what “built to sell” means.
