Joanne Westwood

Hi! I'm Joanne Westwood and I offer a complete online marketing team for local businesses.

As a business owner, there’s one thing we know for sure: this isn’t Mayberry.  The days of little competition and doing business with the corner store are WAY over.  As the industrial age has ushered in the technology age, we’re seeing the entire business landscape shift:  old strategies for reaching customers aren’t working anymore.  I mean, who looks things up in the phone book?  Who reads the newspaper anymore?  Our markets’ buying behaviors are shifting faster than we can keep up; no more do we learn one “new strategy” than everyone is flocking to something different.  Business owners across the city are lamenting at the challenges they’re facing keeping customers, let alone attracting new ones. I'll help you understand which platforms to be on, strategically how to use them and I have the team that can manage it all for you so you can do what you do best.
