The Local Web - an Image

Written by Susan Tormollen. Hi. I'm Susan, Balihoo's Director of Marketing. I am fascinated by marketing, and specifically about marketing integration and trends.

A decade ago, purchases were primarily made—and consumer loyalty built—via traditional print and media ads, and the yellow pages.

But all of that is quickly changing.

While traditional forms of advertising are still relevant, today’s dollars are spent and customers are captured by means of digital marketing, including social media. In fact, in 2011, over $1 trillion in retail sales could be attributed to web-influenced purchases, according to a study conducted by GroupM Search and Kantar Media Compete. And the Local Web, an ever-growing ecosystem of online media channels, is the single largest influencer of this shift in consumer behavior.
