Press Release: Augabout and LMP Partner on Social-WiFi Service

Image: David Aug (left), Augabout Consulting and Forward WiFi, and Robert Lawson (right), Lawson Media & Publishing showcase Forward WiFi technology at the Regus Office in Downtown Mankato, MN

Augabout Consulting has announced its partnership with Lawson Media & Publishing to provide social media powered WiFi marketing systems to businesses in Southern Minnesota. Aug and Lawson tag team on many projects, including web design and search engine optimization (SEO) for small businesses in Southern Minnesota, including Rochester, Mankato and Twin Cities areas. As Augabout Consulting adds social media powered WiFi marketing to its growing list of products and services as a Minnesota advertising and marketing agency, its relationship grows with the LMP publishing and advertising network. 

Small businesses can now monetize their public WiFi networks, rather than just giving away the WiFi connection for free with no other benefit to the business other than satisfying the ever growing expectations of modern customers, particularly millennials. This partnership marks a new era in digital marketing for Southern Minnesota, Mankato, Rochester and the Twin Cities, as well as other key markets in the Midwest. 

Social media marketing is not new, but Augabout and Lawson Media plan to use their combined expertise and networks to provide a one-of-a-kind ad network designed with local business in mind. Proximity marketing using text messaging is not the future. The future is with social and WiFi technologies like Forward WiFi, combined with really useful content marketing and networking. This is what makes the partnership special, because it combines the power of LMP's publishing and media network with Augabout's specialty marketing and advertising agency to distribute content for businesses in modern and practical ways. These methods are far more likely to provide ROI for small businesses in Southern Minnesota and the Twin Cities. 

Because the WiFi network is combined with niche and local websites, social media pages, email, apps, loyalty programs, coupons and display ads that run across splash pages and landing pages on the network, in addition to interactive media like print magazines, the marketing system the two companies have worked the past year developing will allow businesses to plan engagement strategy around content marketing and social media campaigns in new ways like never before. 

The platform itself will allow those with special routers from Forward WiFi to generate social media or email leads and offer patrons coupons, special offers and coupons to gain their loyalty and continued business, competing with larger companies with the same type of programs in place already. Businesses can also use the hardware and software from LMP and Augabout/Forward WiFi to monetize their Internet connection with ads. Aug compares it to the messaging seen at gas station bathrooms or gas pumps, but on your mobile device instead. Custom pages can be developed for each business in the network. 

There is a great deal more information about this announcement at Independent Forum Review (IFR), an LMP network website that publishes news, information and entertainment to a national, global and local audience. LMP also made an announcement on their website and is distributing press releases across the region about the new venture between these two companies.

Wedding Limousine Niche Content - Renee's Royal Valet - Limos, Coaches & Trolleys in Minneapolis

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — This week, I wanted to focus on a blog that I have been promoting for a while now. Renee's Royal Valet - Limos, Coaches & Trolleys in the Twin Cities is a premium transportation provider and they have carved out a nice niche in the wedding limo industry. Their blog has been a central focus point for content development.

RRV is an important case study because they are a good example of how to hammer away at a niche that people are likely to search for in the search engines. LMP set up a custom search engine optimization (SEO) plan with Augabout Consulting group in Rochester, MN for a home run strategy in SEO and social media.

The company's focus on specific niche areas of its business helps LMP develop content that is targeted to the user base they are seeking to serve. Because the content is so relevant and is engaging it is more likely to rank high on search engines like Google and Bing, but is also more likely to produce engagement results on social media like Facebook, where the company has a somewhat large following in the Minneapolis, MN area.

The company also makes use of digital video to show potential customers what the company offers for brides and grooms in Minnesota looking for a wedding limousine provider. They may also want trolley or coach bus rental for their wedding or other event.

Beyond weddings, RRV focuses on tours at breweries and wineries and other local destinations in the twin cities. They can provide trips to airport for company executives that want business travel accounts with RRV as well.

The wedding limousines are the real niche here though. The blog helps spotlight their excellent services as well as the many awards and accolades they have received from wedding media outlets as well as general press and media in Minnesota and online.

They also have a good digital reputation. You will notice they are ranked five stars on both Google and Facebook, but they are also ranked as well on sites like Yelp! and other services including Angie's List, a major referral source for the company. LMP has helped define a winning strategy to help RRV continue to serve brides and grooms, as well as wedding planners and vendors, with the best possible wedding limousine and travel packages available.

How Will I Raise Funds for My Business Loan in Two Days? Ask.









I only have less than two days to raise funds to get "Mission Critical" accomplished for speedy transfer of service on a website I purchased recently.  
There isn't much time to advertise nor much money considering I just purchased the business, am hiring an IT development team to deploy upgrades to the platform, and am working round the clock to fund all the operations I have and pay everyone on time. 
I tried hard to avoid cluttering my social media feeds with requests from people for funds, but it has come down to the wire! There is no time to waste to get this one fund paid to move on to work on the development of the core features and upgrades on the platform. ZoomVillage (company I recently acquired) needs to be up and running again! The users must continue to "provide local news coverage all over the world through a world-class CMS system. The site is down due to a server cost that exceeds my budget after the acquisition and budget set aside for my IT team to create upgrades on the platform and monetize it as a profitable business, enabling journalists and marketers across the world to finance their own news enterprises."
ZoomVillage provides a CMS for smaller publishers or organizations. It features citizen journalism tools, optimized web layouts for all sorts of devices and multiple forms of advertising and revenue options for publishers: 
This includes options like display ads, text ads and [sponsored posts coming soon], geographical marketing programs and devices (many more coming) and other great locally focused features for your news and local information guide. 
HashTag:
#$25toSpare?
$25 to spare? I know it's a lot to ask, but fundraising is never the easy part of business. I can personally use this money to build a profound business opportunity for other entrepreneurs like myself and create local news operations that profit and still produce great content and news for their audiences. 
Thanks for your continued support!
-ROB LAWSON, LMP
