Traffic Geyser Supports Local Economies with the Introduction of Main Street Marketing Machines 2.0: Fusion

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) April 13, 2011

Traffic Geyser has developed and distributed turnkey Internet-marketing solutions for more than five years. Their new Web-based service, Main Street Marketing Machines: 2.0 Fusion, offers small businesses and entrepreneurs the ability to attract customers at a time when revenues have sunk nationwide.

Traffic Geysers release of Fusion, stems from the positive responses we got from the first Main Street Marketing Machines release in 2010, said Mike Koenigs, CEO and Co-founder of Traffic Geyser. Mom & Pop stores, dentists, engineers, plumbers- you name it- they all started reaching more customers during a horrible economy. That made us feel incredibly grateful, so we designed Fusion in a way that makes this growth even more accessible to Main Street businesses.

For many, its an opportunity hidden in plain sight.

The media does a great job of covering Wall Street, but there are 29.6 million small businesses in the U.S. that often get overlooked, added Koenigs. These are the people, products and services found in every neighborhood and town, and theyre asking for help with their online marketing.

Main Street Marketing Machines 2.0: Fusion, is the result of combining customer feedback, a year of testing and over one million dollars in R&D. When compared to its predecessor, Koenigs explains that Fusion offers additional tools, training, templates and sales materials, and that users have access to product-creation videos, client-acquisition articles and blueprints for marketing local companies online.

Koenigs says his personal goal is to create one million new entrepreneurs before he dies.

Fusion was designed so that people can build a business on helping others build their own businesses. It not only distributes online content, it spreads goodwill by allowing users to more easily provide value to the companies and organizations found in their local communities.
