Philadelphia, PA — Philadelphia's self-professed Internet Geek claims he has a can't-lose plan to revive the local economy - and he's hoping local business owners will hear him out.
According to James P Tyler, owner of Get On The Crew!, the communities around the country who are surviving and even thriving during these rough economic times are the ones who's area businesses are embracing new technologies to advertise their products and services. He thinks it’s about time businesses in Philadelphia start doing the same.

“In our world today where the internet allows us to connect and communicate instantly with people anytime, anywhere, on their laptops and iphones, there's absolutely no reason why local businesses should be suffering,” Tyler claims.

Tyler believes that if local Philadelphia stores, restaurants and professionals would learn how to advertise more effectively, less expensively and to a wider market using available online/offline technologies, they would see an almost instant increase in customers and revenue.

“One of the main problems we have here in Philadelphia is that most business owners don't realize how many people - even right here in town - search online before they decide which local businesses to spend their money with,” explains Tyler. “If you and your business aren't visible and active online - you are absolutely missing out on customers!”

Yet if the thought of learning how to use all the latest online tools like Facebook, QR codes and video marketing sounds overwhelming, Tyler says not to worry.

“As part of my plan to help our economy, I've had a complete set of videos produced showing local business owners how to use the internet to increase business - and I'm making these freely available to any business owners who'd like to watch them.”
