Local search consultant and marketer Rob Metras  of The Silent Seller.com announced today that his book" Finding Your Business Today: Help Customers Find You and Get Ranked at the Top of Google' is now  available in both  paperback and  electronically on Kindle on Amazon.com.

From his office in Cambridge, Ontario  Metras, who is the founder  of The Silent Seller.com , said " I was always frustrated how many businessman and talented professionals did not take advantage of all the benefits of free advertising to grow their business by making sure they claimed their free listings on online directories and search engines like Google." Metras added " Through this book I  show   them step by step how they can get new business and clients just by providing a consistent  accurate listing to all of these web properties."


As the landscape is getting more competitive online The Silent Seller.com website was created. It offers businessmen and professionals advice on how to grow their business and the value of having a marketing strategy. The blog is updated with new tips and methods that encourage readers to engage and participate on sites like Facebook ,Twitter and Google Maps.  As most people under 45 now ignore the phone book and Google the information they are seeking, it is important to present yourself to these markets.

Besides online search engines like Google Maps ,  Microsoft Bing and Facebook Places there are a myriad of sites that provide the basis for location-based services such as Foursquare and Gowalla.   In addition it is important to participate in review sites like Yelp and Gig Park as well and link video and photos as well as reviews to their online listings.

The Silent Seller offers reviews of current sites and listings in order to improve them and use marketing best practices improving  exposure,online visibility and visitor engagement. Clients are welcome to contact The Silent Seller for a free half-hour consultation to assist them and as a bonus receive their own copy of  Finding Your Business Today: Help Customers Find You and Get Ranked at the Top of Google'
