    ^ ...or Mary Kay women :P

    For the most part I agree with you. I think forming your own networking group with complimentary businesses may be a better alternative.

    I agree with what everyone else is saying. You're a local, physical business. You cannot do all of your marketing online, especially initially, unless you're going to spend on advertising. You still...

    It’s all a matter of subject matter, literally. If you are trying to rank for the search term or keyword “health insurance” you will never make it no matter what you do.
