Online to Grow as 26% of Small Businesses Up Ad Spending
Though 97% of US small-business owners have some degree of concern about today’s dismal economy, 26% plan to spend more on advertising - especially online - and another 60% plan to spend about the same as in 2008, according to a report from Ad-ology Research.
The “Ad-ology Small Business Marketing Outlook” survey found that though 25% of owners of small businesses with less than 100 employees are fearful about the current economic situation and 58% are concerned, they are also cautiously optimistic. Some 83% expect 2009 sales to be up or about the same as 2008.
In terms of 2009 spending on various media types, more than half of small business advertisers plan to spend the same or more on the following: Online advertising (69%), Yellow Pages (54%), direct mail (51%) and newspapers (51%),.
The biggest factors for small-business owners in making the decision to select specific advertising vehicles are rates (50%), proximity to business prospects (48%) and doing what the company has always done (41%).
adology-influences-advertising-media-bought-2009.jpg
Despite plans to increase spending in some areas, the research also reveals that small-business owners are increasingly questioning whether mass media advertising effectively reaches their desired audience. These advertisers understand the importance of being top-of mind with their customers, and they agree that advertising plays a crucial role in the future of their businesses. However, most (78%) think referrals are their best source for new customers and only 37% think the best way to deliver their marketing message is “to as many people as we can.”
Still, nearly 60% of advertisers surveyed feel that their advertising works more than 40% of the time and judge its effectiveness mostly based on an increase in foot or phone traffic (34%), increased lead generation (21%), and an increase in net sales (21%).
Broken down by specific media, 44% of respondents ranked online advertising as effective, followed by direct mail (32%), Yellow Pages (28%), and newspapers (27%).
adology-small-business-marketing-effective-advertising-media-delivering-message.jpg
This perceived effectiveness is directly related to the planned 2009 spending for these media types, Ad-ology said.
Other survey findings:
* More than two-thirds of businesses surveyed indicate they did not spend at least $1,000 on advertising in the preceding 12 months, mainly because of budget limitations. Forty-eight percent of these non-advertisers do not advertise because of lack of money and 47% cited the high cost of advertising.
* 52% of small business owners agree with the statement “you can gain market share by marketing while your competitors are cutting back.”
* 74% believe their company must be one of the first two or three that come to a customer’s mind when they need what the small business owner is selling.
* More than half of respondents plan to spend the same or more time and money on their websites (53%), e-mail marketing to current clients (55%), and e-mail marketing to potential clients (51%). Use of and interest in the more established online marketing methods continue to grow for small businesses.
adology-small-business-plan-spend-more-less-online-marketing-2009.jpg
* 58% plan to spend more on social networking in 2009, but the majority are not using other emerging media beyond email and websites: 77% do not use online video, 83% do not podcast, and 82% do not use mobile advertising.
* When evaluating media ad sales reps, small-business owners look first for one who “knows my company/line of business, ” and “delivers what they promise.”
“Small business owners rely on advertising sales reps for guidance and are clearly looking for consultative partners in the advertising process,” said C. Lee Smith, president and CEO of Ad-ology Research. “They are more likely to purchase advertising from those that understand their business,” Smith said.
About the research: The survey was conducted by Ad-ology Research via an online panel of 863 owners of US businesses with less than 100 employees in October 2008. The Small Business Marketing Outlook report is available for purchase at http://www.ad-ology.net.

SHOPPING 102: ONLINE SHOPPING SAVES GAS, MONEY and TIME
SHOPPING 102: ONLINE SHOPPING SAVES GAS, MONEY and TIME
It shouldn’t be surprising that online shopping is growing more than 10 times faster than physical retail shopping. Whether consumers are fully conscious of it, they are saving on not one but THREE factors: MONEY, TIME and GAS.
It seems that the old objection that ‘You can’t touch it’ is not so much a factor in keeping shoppers away from internet buying.
Total sales generated by e-commerce have grown explosively over the last five years. Though economic growth has been flattened by the recession, online retail still shows more signs of life during recession than consumer retail as a whole, according to Mittel
(www.researchandmarkets.com/.../online_shopping_us_2009.pdf)
Online spending grew nearly 20 times faster than the overall UK retail market last year, according to recent research. A survey by retail analyst Verdict shows that street (physical) shopping spending grew by 1.5 per cent in 2005, compared with 28.9 per cent for internet (virtual) shopping – although the web still accounts for only 3.1 per cent of total retail sales. The number of online shoppers grew by 25.5 per cent to 14.6 million
Most recent figures for the U.S show internet shopping increasing at around 20% per year, on average, through 2004., according to E-commerce, in most recent statistics available, as follows:
In the year 2000 = 352 million online
In 2001 = 446 million online
In 2002 = 530 million online
In 2003 = 623 million online
In 2004 = 700+ million online and increasing
GAS: It’s fairly obvious that driving to your local mall or shopping center can eat up a lot of gasoline, depending how far you drive, idle in traffic, etc. Gas is not only an expense but adding to polluting the environment.
MONEY: You are saving not only on 1) Gas but 2)special Online Discount Pricing. Retailers can charge less for online purchases with less overhead expense. Many are not aware of this. One can go online for most of the top retailers, or ‘bix box’ stores like Macy’s, Best Buy, Kmart, Target, Walmart, Sears, etc. and find any number of added value deals, including FREE Shipping! Retailers have become more and more interested in selling online , of late, as internet sales continue to grow at a faster rate than retail sales . Most of these big retailers have joined the world of ‘Affiliate Marketing,’
teaming up with e-commerce sites to sell market their products online. One such site is http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.com , where one can save tremendously in the comfort of his or her home shopping hundreds of online merchants including all the above named!
TIME: In today’s busy world, time can be as precious or more precious than saving money sometimes. Instead of spending countless hours driving around from store to store, waiting in traffic, parking, etc., one can purchase most needed items -if not all-right right online in the comfort of his or her home and in a fraction of the time!Stress, Wear and Tear, too: One more factor that shouldn’t be ignored comparing retail versus online shopping is the ‘savings’ on one’s own psyche with internet shopping..
Stress, Wear and Tear, too: One more factor that shouldn’t be ignored comparing retail versus online shopping is the ‘savings’ on one’s own psyche with internet shopping..
By 2015, it’s forecast that online sales will account for 11% of total retail spend, and in some sectors such as music and video, Internet spending will be almost 50% of total retail spend by 2015.. This will take a bigger chunk of existing and future sales from physical retailers. So, shoppers who aren’t already buying online may want to get on the savings bandwagon. As for street retailers, e-commerce consultants suggest that they could advertise their shops more clearly, online, and communicate directly with their customers, thereby taking advantage of the new world of online advertising.
ADVERTISING: We’ve addressed the Consumers. What about Merchants not currently advertising online? That can be an increasing problem for them. Even smaller, local service and retail businesses can effectively reach both new and existing customers through simple and low cost online advertising such as http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.net, where they can get a mini-website full optimized for only $25/ month! It may be that or falling further behind in the new world of business and marketing.

FOR ONLINE SAVINGS, TRY http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.net where you can find most name brand retailers offering special online discounts as well as local services offering discounts. There are other sites too offering ‘either/or’ national and local ads, but Yellow Pages coupons has both.

This will take a bigger chunk of existing and future sales from physical retailers. So, shoppers who aren’t already buying online may want to get on the savings bandwagon. As for street retailers, e-commerce consultants suggest that they could advertise their shops more clearly, online, and communicate directly with their customers, thereby taking advantage of the new world of online advertising.
ADVERTISING: We’ve addressed the Consumers. What about Merchants not currently advertising online? That can be an increasing problem for them. Even smaller, local service and retail businesses can effectively reach both new and existing customers through simple and low cost online advertising such as http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.net, where they can get a mini-website full optimized for only $25/ month! It may be that or falling further behind in the new world of business and marketing.

FOR ONLINE SAVINGS, TRY http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.net where you can find most name brand retailers offering special online discounts as well as local services offering discounts. There are other sites too offering ‘either/or’ national and local ads, but Yellow Pages coupons has both.

LAFAYETTE, California July 10, 2009
CORE NEWS FACTS
BUSINESS: 26% of Small Business plan to spend more on advertising in 2009 - especially online - and another 60% plan to spend about the same as in 2008, according to a report from Ad-ology Research (October , 2008), this despite lower ad budgets and 97% of business owners having ‘some degree of concern’ about today’s dismal economy.
CONSUMERS: A recent survey by Nomensa found that 36 percent of people plan to spend more money online this year and 89 percent of respondents believe better prices can be found online.
KEY ONLINE / COUPON SITE STATISTICS
Business-wise, in terms of 2009 spending on various media types, more than half of small business advertisers plan to spend the same or more on the following: Online advertising (69%), Yellow Pages (54%), direct mail (51%) and newspapers (51%) according to the Ad-ology study. Broken down by specific media, 44% of respondents ranked online advertising as most effective, followed by direct mail (32%). Yellow Pages and newspapers, which were once advertising leaders , dropped to 28% and 27% , respectfully, in popularity.
Consumer-wise, according to comScore Media Metrix, coupon sites were the fastest-growing online category in November 2008, up 32 percent from October to 35.6 million visitors. comScore's "State of the US Online Retail Economy: Q3 2008" report said that 62 percent of responding U.S. consumers who decreased their shopping expenses in October 2008 were using coupons more often to do so..
Despite plans to increase spending in some areas, the research also reveals that small-business owners are increasingly questioning whether mass media advertising (newpapers, yellow pages, TV , radio, etc.) effectively reaches their desired audience. These advertisers understand the importance of being top-of mind with their customers, and they agree that advertising plays a crucial role in the future of their businesses
In a down economy, retailers of all sizes face the challenge of staying afloat and weathering the storm. As more consumers make purchases online, savvy merchants are attracting online dollars with exclusive Web coupons, deals and promotions.
The biggest factors for small-business owners in making the decision to select specific advertising vehicles are rates (50%), proximity to business prospects (48%) and doing what the company has always done (41%).

One of the Few Coupon Sites To Offer BOTH National and Local Discounts and more
Since last year, Yellow Pages Coupons, a free online resource for reliable, trusted coupons, coupon codes, discounted name brand products and services, has seen a 400 percent increase in the number of promotions retailers and services are offering on its site. Meanwhile, YellowPagesCoupons.net has seen a similar 4x increase in web consumer traffic to the site.
Unlike other coupon sites, http://www.YellowPagesCoupons.net is not just a listing of ‘affiliate’ offers but a true multi-media ‘Savings Site’ featuring both National AND Local businesses, both retail and service. Macy’s, Amazon.com, Walmart, Itunes, Petsmart, Restaurants.com, Walgreens, Orbitz, Sears are just some of the hundreds of national coupon sites listed at YellowPagesCoupons.net. Local coupons include restaurants, grocery, automotive (smog check, limo airport transportation coupons, etc.), home service (housecleaning,, landscaping, etc). , professional (dentists, chiropractors, etc), entertainment, personal care,etc. primarily in the San Francisco East Bay Area, where we originate from, but we are accepting local ads nationwide and plan to have a base of local coupons in each of the 50 states, accessable from a clickable map.
YellowPagesCoupons.net evolved naturally out of our parent, Coupon Country Direct Mail, about five years ago. As marketing seems to be moving from print to online, Yellow Pages Coupons has rapidly been increasing its viewership among consumers while adding business coupons / mini-websites daily. YellowPagesCoupons.net is NOT just a coupon site but a Savings Information ' site – a Recession-Fighter site,if ou will - featuring freshly written content , including tips on using coupons, healthy, money-saving recipes, cheapest gas stations, etc. We include a money-saving 'events' and 'news-link' section with up-do-date savings venues and informnation. Though there is affiate marketing , it is less than half the site's content, being shared with hundreds of local coupons/mini-websites and other fresh material, most compused/edited by us.
Coupon Country (http://www.CouponCountry.com ) was begun by us 28 years ago (the internet part of it 10 years ago) as a cooperative direct mail business whereby small business could afford to compete with the 'big boys' in targeted, local coupon book mailers, by sharing postage and other costs among the 10-20 businesses within each mailer. CouponCountry.com has become a successful website, linking to YellowPagesCoupons.net whereby consumers can now retreive the (mailed) coupons ONLINE. Advertisers are now getting THE TOP TWO AD MEDIA for about the same as they were paying for direct mail before.
For one low cost – less than 4c per address- Coupon Country designs, prints, mails and pays postage for individual flyers in targeted, attractive and color coupon book mailers to 20 different locales one can choose from, of 10,000 addresses per area. (See MAILING SCHEDULE on website.) A FREE WEB Coupon site at YellowPagesCoupons is included when one mails with Coupon Country. Thereby , one is advertising in the TOP TWO Ad Media for 2009 – Online and Direct Mail!
