Cm It Solutions Announces Localads At Cmit Program

AUSTIN TEXAS (Thursday, February 23, 2006) - CM IT Solutions (CMIT), a leader in providing IT professional services to small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), announced the introduction of its LocalAds@CMIT program. Designed specifically to offer small businesses a cost-effective means of leveraging targeted online advertising, the program is aimed at generating leads and driving traffic to the local business. An effective Internet marketing tool, LocalAds@CMIT also offers a unique reporting system that allows a small business owner to track every click, every phone call, and every email, resulting from the advertisement, so an accurate assessment of return-on-investment can be made.

With over 150 million users online each month and 65 percent of the U.S. population using the Internet, online searches for local businesses are becoming increasingly popular. In August 2004 alone, 117 million internet users searched for more than 3.7 billion results. Over 30 percent, more than 1.1 billion of those searches were local in nature.

"A new era in local advertising, LocalAds@CMIT offers small businesses a total automated, easy-to-use solution for online search engine advertising and eliminates several barriers," said Gordon Bridge, President and CEO of CM IT Solutions. "This solution truly helps small businesses make money by increasing visibility for them in their local area, reaching new customers and generating more business."

With this new platform, CMIT can help small businesses can create, submit and set up local online advertising programs on Google, Yahoo, MSN and other popular search engines, all at once. Small businesses can work with a CMIT franchisee to determine a budget and implement the program within a few days. LocalAds@CMIT enables SMBs to:

-Create thousands of keywords and search phrases in an instant so that their local businesses can be found by potential customers.

-Distribute the ads to all the most popular search engines so that business owners do not have to waste time finding out which ones work best within the allotted budget.

-Monitor and adjust the campaign budget to optimize results.

-Ensure that the ads are targeted by geography so that owners only spend money to acquire customers in their service area.

-Accurately measure results and assess if advertising campaign is effective by tracking all calls, emails and other forms of responses generated as a result of the online ads.

"By monitoring the success of the online ads, we can truly provide customers with measurable results," said Bridge. "This will help a business determine its return-on-investment accurately, while enabling them to alter their budget and program fairly quickly to better suit their needs."
