Hi Mike,
How nice of you to come by. As you can see, you’ve already got some friends and admirers here. I’ve been keeping my eye on your blog in my feedreader, as well!

I sincerely welcome any contributions you have to make here. It’s a pleasure to chat with you.

Miriam, Mike’s a friendly acquaintance/friend I’ve been in touch with a few times and I think Dave has too (I recall some interview between the two recently?) . Feel free to tell Mike B that you’re a friend of mine, and if I can venture to be so bold, to tell Mike you’re a friend of Dave’s too. He’s very accessible, in any case. email is mike aaaaaat miketheinternetguy punctuationmark com.

Gab & David -
So sorry I missed your comments. I was on a little vacation. I have heard Mike’s name, and if he is recommended by both of you, I’m sure he must be super.

I would like to get to know him. I feel a bit shy about asking folks I haven’t spoken with previously for an interview. Everyone on my list is someone I’ve been in contact with in one way or another over the past couple of years.

So, Mike Belasco, if you’re out there and happen to read this, I’m Miriam, I’d like to get to know you and learn more about your love of Local!

I’d second Gab’s comment about adding Mike to the list, assuming you and he have time for a sixth interview?

How about Mike Belasco? He definitely knows his local stuff (and is, incidentally, another Denver SEO).

Hi Miriam-

Thanks so much for the endorsement. I need to clarify a little. For the most part I do not execute and plan many Search Marketing campaigns for strictly local businesses.

Mostly, in the local space, I have been consulting and offering market research tools to national & international companies interested in learning more about Maps & Local.

I have provided guidance as a courtesy to my local web design clients and on occasion taken on a small business client in another city if they had a particularly vexing problem or unusual situation.Have Maps will Travel as it were.

Thanks again.

Mike

Welcome Ivy!

Wow, I hope you steered your client away, away, away from that offer. Without knowing anything else about the offer or the firm, my guess would be that their major concern after contract signing would be that that $1500 keeps coming in every month. If it sounds too good to be true…it is.

I’m glad you enjoyed the post and hope to see you here again!
