Marketing help that lives in your town
KEM Marketing is based in Stuttgart, Arkansas. Karen Moreno started it to give local owners the tools big-city competitors use, without a big-city contract. When you work with KEM, you work with Karen directly. Learn more about KEM and Karen.
We're a new company, and we won't dress that up with made-up client lists. What you get is close attention, plain talk, and a Founding Client rate for the first five businesses: setup fee waived and the monthly rate locked for 12 months, in exchange for feedback and permission to document results if you're happy with them.
Small-town dynamics
Word of mouth now starts with a Google search
In a small town, the recommendation often still comes from a neighbor, a coworker, or a cousin: "call so-and-so." What changed is the next step. People look the business up. They want the phone number, the hours, the reviews, and a website that works on their phone.
If that search turns up an outdated listing or a site from another era, the referral gets weaker, and the caller may try the next name. Word travels fast in a small town, and a clear online presence helps the good word travel too.
What we tighten up
- ✓A complete Google Business Profile with correct hours, phone, service area, and photos. Start with our Google Business Profile checklist.
- ✓A steady stream of real Google reviews from real customers, asked for the same way every time.
- ✓A mobile-friendly site with a call button. See website design for local businesses.
- ✓Missed-call text-back, so a call that comes in while you're on a job still gets an answer.
Grand Prairie towns
Serving Stuttgart, Arkansas and the towns around it
Plenty of local businesses don't stop at the city limit. A plumber, roofer, or cleaning crew may cover much of the county. We set up your Google profile and website so every town you serve is listed.
Arkansas County
Stuttgart and DeWitt share county-seat duties in Arkansas County. We also serve Almyra, Gillett, and Humphrey, so your service area reflects where you really work.
Next door
Hazen sits in Prairie County and Carlisle in Lonoke County. Both are close enough that a Stuttgart business may serve customers there, so both deserve a mention on your profile.
A little farther out
Pine Bluff, Little Rock, and the rest of the region are covered by our Central Arkansas marketing agency page and our Little Rock marketing page.
Seasonal rhythms
The calendar in Stuttgart runs on rice and ducks
Rice harvest gets underway in late summer and carries into fall across the Grand Prairie, and duck season brings hunters through in the cold months. Around Thanksgiving, downtown Stuttgart hosts the Wings Over the Prairie Festival and the World's Championship Duck Calling Contest, first held in 1936 (see the Encyclopedia of Arkansas entry).
Busy seasons bring visitors, and visitors may not have a neighbor to ask, so some will search Google Maps. Your listing should be ready before the crowds arrive.
Before the busy stretch
Update festival-week and holiday hours on your Google Business Profile, add a post, and double-check your phone number and service area.
While the town is full
Make sure every call gets an answer, even when you're on a job. Missed-call text-back replies for you.
When the weather turns
Hot summers and winter cold snaps can bring a rush of HVAC and plumbing calls, and storms can do the same for roofing. Be ready to reply quickly.
After every rush
Ask each customer for a Google review the same way, while the job is fresh. No incentives and no cherry-picking who gets asked.
For Stuttgart home service pros
HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, landscaping, cleaning, remodeling, garage door, and pest control businesses often get hired on word of mouth. We help your online presence do your reputation justice, so you're easy to find when someone new needs you. See marketing for home service pros.
For Grand Prairie med spas
In a small community, word travels fast, so privacy deserves extra care. Review replies never confirm that someone is a patient, ads make no treatment-outcome promises, and your Google profile lists the nearby towns you serve. See marketing for med spas.
Plans start at $497 a month with a $500 setup fee. Compare Starter, Growth, and Scale on the pricing page, or read how it works from first call to launch.
