ST. LOUIS (PRWEB) September 18, 2019 -- For several years, small businesses have struggled to identify a true roadmap for being found in their local marketplace without feeling overwhelmed by the concepts of content marketing, SEO and brand strategy. Fortunately, a new collaboration by several marketing experts now aims to change that.

Practical, tactical, and doable! The best guide ever for how to use smart content to win the all-important search engine contest. Highly recommended!” - Jay Baer, founder of Convince & Convert and best-selling author of "Youtility"

"Content Marketing for Local Search: Create Content that Google Loves & Prospects Devour" by Ian Cantle, Mark Z. Fortune, Dan Gershenson, Ray L. Perry and Ken Tucker demystifies local search marketing and empowers business owners to feel as though they can not only level the playing field against competitors with deeper pockets and resources but actually gain a competitive advantage too.

“There are a million pieces of advice floating out there by marketing practitioners on what tactics to pursue, which I think is causing small businesses to be more confused than ever before,” says Tucker. “So when we collectively decided to create a book focused on local SEO, we knew we wanted to write it from a place that assumes nothing and takes small business owners through a more accessible, step-by-step approach to an avenue that represents a huge opportunity for them.”

Some may be surprised to find that the authors don’t dive right into local SEO from the first chapter – but there’s a good reason for that. Instead, they impress upon the reader to think about strategy first in the name of differentiation and targeting ideal clients, so one knows precisely who to create content for. This strategic focus is also essential for developing content that capitalizes on the problems the business solves – an opportunity that far too many companies consistently miss.

Along the way, the authors have taken great care to write from the time-challenged small business owner’s perspective. After all, content is important, but who has time to create it when they’re trying to manage the day-to-day operations and people within a growing business? While the thought of creating content is usually daunting to many small businesses, the book shares a variety of content creation ideas to inspire the reader and which content types are best to create for their particular goals. It also carefully guides them on how to create the kind of content that can help rank for coveted keyword phrases vital to their business and even how to hire the right marketing consultant.

All of the book’s authors have been certified by the Duct Tape Marketing System and its foreword features that system’s founder, John Jantsch. “I highly recommend this book. Learn and execute, and you’ll find it easy to build a path your new customers will use to bring you new business,” says Jantsch, the best-selling author of “Duct Tape Marketing.”

Jay Baer, founder of Convince & Convert and best-selling author of "Youtility" says of the book: “Practical, tactical, and doable! The best guide ever for how to use smart content to win the all-important search engine contest. Highly recommended!”

“If you implement the insights shared within this book, I’m confident your business relationships will grow,” says Ivan Misner, founder, best-selling author and Chief Visionary Officer of BNI, one of the largest networking organizations in the world. “Your referral partners will better understand the value you bring to the table and your business will have a greater chance of success in our competitive marketplace.”

“Content Marketing for Local Search: Create Content that Google Loves & Prospects Devour” is now available for purchase on Amazon.
