Grow Your Business

LOCAL MARKETING IS CHALLENGING.
WE HELP MAKE IT SIMPLE & PROFITABLE.

Spending time & money on marketing without a complete marketing plan is costing you business. When an incomplete marketing plan is combined with confusing messaging, you might as well be burning your hard-earned money.

We’re an award-winning marketing agency in Lakeland FL that helps local businesses develop a clear brand message and a complete marketing plan that drives results. Stop wasting your marketing dollars and experience business growth.

Customers Who Listen

When your marketing message clearly tells your customer how you can make their life better, they will listen. If you confuse, you lose.


Regain Your Time

Spend your valuable time running your business, not spinning your wheels guessing what might work with your marketing.


Make More Money

When your marketing sends a clear message as part of a complete (& proven) marketing plan, you make more money. It’s that simple.

Meet Your Local Marketing Guide

How are you supposed to become a marketing expert with all of the time running your business demands? I get it. I’ve run a small business for over a decade. Every day presents unique challenges, endless fires to put out, customers to serve, and team members to lead.

When you started your business, you didn’t start it to become a marketing expert. I did. Helping local businesses grow with smart & effective marketing is exactly why my team and I do what we do.

It’s also why everything we do is Storybrand inspired. Our team applies the proven Storybrand framework to every project we do. We take pride in our work for you by knowing your marketing message will be clear and your customers will listen.

A Clear Marketing Message = More Money!

During our discovery call, we’ll discuss the high-level details of your business, your marketing needs, your offer, your perfect customer, and what success looks like to you. If we mutually agree we’re a good fit, we’ll move on to step 2.

Step 2: STRATEGY CALL(S)

Our strategy call(s) will help us narrow down the scope of your needs, understand your services, determine the investment to reach your goals, and establish a timeline of your project using our blueprint.

Step 3: YOUR CUSTOM PLAN

We generate custom recommendations for the marketing your business needs to reach your revenue and growth goals. We work with you to help you understand and choose what you want us to help you implement.

Step 4: PROJECT AGREEMENT

When I came to John and his team at Local Marketing Pros, my website had disappeared, I had lost my domain, and I was unsure of how to proceed. They fixed all that, rebuilt my site, and made it better than before. They went the extra mile and turned my problem into an asset! Thanks John!

Before working with John at Local Marketing Pros my website was barely there. It had some content but no organization, no flow, no excitement for our audience to take the next step, and truthfully not all that eye pleasing. John not only took my ideas, but also my lack of ideas with what to do next and created something that catches the eye and has purpose behind the structure, flow, and copy. He created a website I am excited about and added the personal touch I never imagined having after being hosted by a large corporation like bluehost. It really has been a pleasant and individualized experience as he has been so generous and open minded about every aspect of the process, understanding that everyone is unique in their needs. I would absolutely recommend reaching out for your website needs, they are open to a conversation on your specific goals that, again, a larger corporation wouldn’t have. Thanks for giving and going above and beyond what I asked for! Thanks for being there each step of the way! Thanks for creating something I’m excited to send to our audience!

WOW what can I say John at Local Marketing Pro is a true professional and so so helpful! I had a massive problem with my website where malware was embedded within wordpress and John came to my rescue and saved the day - I can not thank you enough!

I can't say enough about LMP! Not only are they exceptional in their response time, but were able to meet the needs and offer recommendations specific to our industry. John's level of professionalism and knowledge is unmatched. It took a few tries with some other companies, but we finally got it right with LMP.

I needed some help with a website, had some coding that was above my head that needed to be done and done quickly. I asked John about it and he knew what needed to be done and was able to get it done on a tight deadline. I highly recommend Local Marketing Pros for their services. Thanks John!

Local Marketing Pros has been working with me for a couple of years on promoting and SEO on my sites as well as various other services as needed. They are top knotch, honest, hard working and really do what they commit to. I worked with other marketing companies before with little to no change in my rankings but Local Marketing Pros has done a mervelous job with real results that show real profits. I could not be happier and I highly recommend them for all your website related and traffic needs.

We had a fantastic experience with Local Marketing Pros! We needed help growing our local business leads, and there certainly are a lot of shady companies that promise the moon- makes it hard to know what to do. The fact that they are really a local company, and that John (owner) personally met with me, discussed my situation (before we signed anything) really helped put me at ease. And the real reason I'm writing this- the RESULTS! I couldn't be more please. If you're looking for help, use me as a reference- this company is the one to help you!

Local Marketing Pros is fantastic to work with. We state our goals and they setup and implement the strategies to get us where we want to go in our market. The knowledge these guys have for digital marketing simply blows us away, its link having our own "think tank" at our disposal. I just can't say enough about them. Thanks to LMP our business thrives even in this questionable economy. I wouldn't trust my marketing to anyone else, Thanks again!
