Answers
 
1. I depend on local customers, why do I need to advertise online?
 
Simply put, you need to advertise online since that is where your customers are looking for you - and in ever increasing numbers. Your customers are online looking for local places to buy your products or services. Recent studies have shown that 70% of U.S. households use the internet when making Local buying decisions. In contrast yellow pages advertising and local newspaper advertising are becoming less effective as their user base moves online for quicker access to richer information.
