Standard Marketing Rolls Out "Double Your Business" Guarantee - PRWeb

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (PRWEB) February 29, 2012

Standard Marketing announced this month its "Double Your Business" guarantee for businesses who spend a significant amount of money on Yellow Pages and/or Canpages and aren't currently doing internet marketing. Depending on a client's Yellow Pages return on the previous year, Standard Marketing commits to double a client's gross revenue within a year or to continue working at no charge until they do.

According to Ken Lapp, President of Standard Marketing, an appropriate metaphor to understand the limited reach of Yellow Pages is: "if there was a small strip mall on Main Street, wouldn’t you rather have an opportunity to be found by everybody walking on Main Street rather than just by the people who go into the strip mall?"

Standard Marketing leverages its 12 years of experience in the internet marketing field to engage in proven tactics that yield the best possible results. Although variations apply depending on each client, each strategy is based on a mix of Search Engine Optimization, Social Media Marketing, Local Search Optimization and Automated Email Marketing, among others.

Lapp also commented on the potential of this offer: "Internet Marketing is amazingly measurable and this is what makes up for this offer's great potential. We can take advantage of this data to let the client know how their internet marketing is doing in all important areas and to identify opportunities for greater growth. Doubling our clients' business is our success benchmark in this guarantee program but that doesn't mean we'll stop there. We'll go as far as possible to get our clients the best possible return on their investment."

PR Newswire

BOSTON, Jan. 6, 2012

BOSTON, Jan. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Bullhorn today released its December Job Opportunity Report, benchmarking new job openings by sector and region to identify bright spots in employment. According to Bullhorn's sector data, adjusted for seasonality, the manufacturing, educational services and health care sectors all experienced month-over-month double-digit growth in job openings. The manufacturing industry led the pack, with a 43 percent increase.

Looking across its job openings data, Bullhorn can also project the upcoming data from the BLS Employment Opportunity Index that will be released on February 3, 2012. Bullhorn predicts that the U.S. economy will add 170,000 jobs in January 2012, continuing the positive trend.

"We are seeing a steady increase in job opportunity across regions and sectors, which is very welcome news," said Art Papas, CEO of Bullhorn. "We are predicting that, in general, 2012 will be a better year for job seekers."

Sector Data

The manufacturing sector showed the greatest opportunity with a 43 percent month-over-month gain in new job openings. The utilities industry showed the greatest losses, with a 30 percent contraction in new job openings. Similar to the regional data, a year-over-year view shows a more promising picture with gains in almost every sector. The arts, entertainment and recreation sector led the year-over-year growth coming in at 203 percent, while public administration came in last with a loss of -64 percent.

Regional Data

Month-over-month, the Southwest experienced the smallest drop with a -15 percent decrease in new job openings, while the Mid-Atlantic added the fewest new jobs (-23 percent). Year-over-year data shows a better outlook with gains in all six regions, with the Midwest at the top, gaining 53 percent in new job openings. This data is not seasonally adjusted, which is the primary reason for the month-over-month drop.

The Bullhorn Job Opportunity Report is calculated based on new job openings across more than 50,000 recruiters and five years of historical data, which includes 13 million analyzed records.
