Welcome to **Find More Local Customers** where we provide a lot of support, encouragement, small business marketing strategies, and FREE Help For Small Business Owners.
My name is Bobby Wallace. I have been a entrepreneur and small business owner for 35+ years. I honestly understand why someone would leave the security of a cushy 9-5 job, with its steady paycheck and benefits, to dive head first into the unpredictable world of entrepreneurship and being a small business owner. Which one of these reasons below caused you to want to be a small business owner?
- Passion: There’s nothing quite like doing what you love every day. When your business aligns with your passion, work doesn’t feel like work anymore.
- Freedom: As a small business owner, you’re your own boss. You have the freedom to make decisions and steer your business in the direction you envision. You don’t have to put up with aholes, or incompetent bosses.
- Flexibility: Say goodbye to the rigid 9-5 schedule. As an entrepreneur, you can set your own hours and achieve a better work-life balance. (Somedays)
- Impact: Small businesses are the backbone of our community. By starting your own, you’re contributing to the local economy and making a difference
in your community. When your business grows, your community grows. - Growth: The journey of entrepreneurship is a journey of personal growth. You’ll learn, adapt, and become a stronger version of yourself.
Yes, the path of a small business owner is filled with uncertainty. But it’s also filled with excitement, fulfillment, and the potential for incredible success.
I understand why you took the the leap of faith and followed your dream, I just have one very important question that only YOU can answer:

Finding the Missing Piece in Your Small Business Puzzle 🔍
As a small business owner, have you ever found yourself wondering why your business isn’t succeeding as you’d hoped it would? You’re not alone. It can be challenging to pinpoint exactly what’s holding your business back.
Here are five possible reasons why your small business might be struggling:
- Lack of a Clear Business Plan: A well-defined business plan is the roadmap to success. If you’re missing one, it’s like navigating without a compass. 🗺️
- Inadequate Market Research: Understanding exactly “WHO” your target market is crucial. Do you really know? If your product or service doesn’t meet a market need, it’s hard to find customers. 🎯
- Poor Financial Management: Mismanaging finances can lead to cash flow problems, making it difficult to cover expenses and invest in growth. 💰
- Weak Online Presence: In today’s digital age, a strong online presence is a must. If your business isn’t visible online, you’re missing out on a lot of potential customers. 🌐 Are you invisible? How can they find you?
- Ineffective Marketing Strategy: If your marketing efforts aren’t reaching or resonating with your target audience, it’s hard to generate sales. 📣
Remember, identifying the problem is the first step towards finding a solution. If you’re facing any of these challenges, it’s time to take action before you become a Small Business Administration statistic. Call me @ (843) 200-5617 or email me at: support@findmorelocalcustomers.com.
What caused you to go looking for answers to this small business problem today?
“When it gets to hurting you bad enough, you will do something about it” was one of my grandfather’s favorite sayings. He was a journeyman carpenter and one of my first jobs as a kid was pulling nails out of old boards so that he could re-use them. (Back then, they didn’t throw away anything). At least once a month, I would accidently step on a board that had a nail that I didn’t see. When my grandfather noticed me limping, he would shake his head and remind me, “It’s not going to get better by itself, you gotta get some HELP !”.
Running a small business can be a rewarding journey, but it’s not without challenges and pain. That’s why many small business owners have to sometimes turn to professionals for help. Here are five reasons why:
- Expertise: Professionals bring a wealth of knowledge and experience that can help navigate complex business issues. They’ve seen it all and can provide valuable insights.
- Time Management: Running a business requires wearing many hats. Outsourcing certain tasks to professionals can free up time, allowing business owners to focus on what they do best.
- Risk Mitigation: Professionals can help identify potential risks and develop strategies to mitigate them, protecting the business from costly mistakes.
- Growth Strategy: Professionals can provide strategic advice on business growth, from market expansion, employee retention to product development. They can help chart the path to success.
- Regulatory Compliance: Navigating legal and regulatory requirements can be complex. Professionals can ensure your business stays compliant, avoiding potential fines and legal issues.
Remember, seeking professional help isn’t a sign of weakness, but a strategic move that can propel your business forward.
Everyone, especially small business owners, often need help for things like:
- Haircut: Personal grooming services like haircuts are typically outsourced to professionals in the beauty industry.
- Lawn Care: Maintaining a neat and tidy lawn can be time-consuming, so many people hire professionals to take care of it.
- Accounting: Managing finances, taxes, and payroll is a complex task that often requires a professional accountant. There are thousands of IRS tax changes every year. How can you keep up with them all?
- Legal Services: For legal advice and document preparation, small business owners usually turn to legal professionals.
- Marketing and Advertising: Creating effective marketing strategies and advertisements is often outsourced to marketing agencies.
- Website Design and Maintenance: Professionals in web development and design are hired to create and maintain business websites.
- Cleaning Services: Professional cleaning services are hired to keep the business premises and home clean and tidy.
- IT Support: IT professionals are hired to manage and troubleshoot the technology used in the business.
- Business Consulting: Business consultants are hired to provide strategic advice and improve business operations.
- Delivery Services: For businesses that sell physical products, delivery services are often outsourced to courier companies.
Remember, outsourcing these tasks allows small business owners to focus on their core business functions and can be a key strategy for business growth.

P.S. Two things you need to know before you contact me: I am all about “Relationships” not “Transactions”. I am BLESSED to have 25-30 year relationships with some small business owners. If you are a “Transactional” type of person, we probably aren’t a good fit. Just saying.
P.P.S. I am totally “Transparent”. What we do is not rocket-science. Sometime it’s boring, tedious work (you know, most people don’t like that).
You can do-do-it-yourself or you can hire us to do it. It’s up to you!
We’ve helped a lot of small business owners, just like you, ABSLOUTELY FREE and we would love to talk with you about your small business, and hear your “story” (Every small business owner has a “story) . What do you have to lose?
