Location3 client Mountain Mike’s Pizza and their franchisees face significant competitive challenges when advertising on Google, which ultimately requires the need to be both incredibly efficient with campaign setup and incredibly precise when managing bids and local budgets. A quick Google keyword search for “pizza near me” in Mountain Mike’s home state of California yields over 58,000,000 results (“pizza delivery” yields 56,000,000) and often features a predictable set of ad results from industry giants like Domino’s and Pizza Hut, among others.
Suffice it to say that buying “pizza”-related terms in AdWords can get incredibly expensive, incredibly quickly, if a local franchisee’s budgets and bids are not managed with precision.

In our experience as franchise marketers, Local Ad Fund dollars provide a solid foundation for paid search campaigns that drive consistent, high quality-low cost, leads.
However many franchisees and local business owners could be doing more to support established corporate search marketing campaigns, ultimately capturing the maximum search interest for their services within their markets, driving increased local revenue.
With the exponential growth of internet marketing and online advertising, the customer's journey to making a purchase has grown longer, often including a mrylad of touch points along the way. Whether they begin with a direct search or visit a website via a paid advertisement, the modern shopper takes far more time to explore their options and do their research before buying.
Lets take a closer look at three common stages of today's buying journey and solutions for effectively managing each one.
We are living in the most revolutionary era in human communication since the invention of the printing press. For the past few years, marketers have ‘woken up’ to consumers who have the power to express their views anytime and anywhere. ‘Social’ is hot, and if nothing else, a response to this awakening. Now, the lines between paid, owned and earned media have been blurred, if not erased. Social media crosses the barrier between the three. It’s fast-paced and chaotic.
We partnered with the research firm Sentient Services and surveyed more than 200 consumers about their attitudes, opinions and beliefs about brands and social media integration. The respondents come from all over the country, with all different incomes, lifestyles, and social media habits. Universally, the data supports what we’ve already seen in action: consumers want to engage with brands that integrate social media, and they prefer to do business with social brands.
