Los Altos, CA (PRWEB) June 18, 2007 - MerchantCircle is changing the nature of small business networking. With more than 135,000 members signing-on in the last year, MerchantCircle has proven that you can reach small local businesses outside of the major metropolitan areas. MerchantCircle has been successful in both big cities like San Diego, CA, New York, NY, and small towns like Van Buren, AR and Cedar Lake, IN.
"We are bringing the local internet to millions of merchants, because millions of merchants do not have a website of their own, but want to be able to find new customers online." said Ben T. Smith, IV Chairman and Co-founder, of MerchantCircle. "We started MerchantCircle with an idea that local merchants needed a venue on the web to reach out to customers and interact with one another locally. Almost 1 year and more than 135,000 merchants later, it's great to see our merchants finding new customers and building social networks with other local businesses."
MerchantCircle is the fastest growing and largest online network of small business owners in the country. Merchants across the country are claiming their MerchantCircle listing, and customizing it with pictures, blogs and coupons. These listings show up high in search engines and provide business owners with a chance to express and differentiate themselves to new customers.
