Two days ago when we looked at Spindle, I mentioned that while I don’t find social media particularly valuable anymore, I think that many times it can be extremely helpful for local businesses. The thing is that most local business owners don’t have the time or knowledge to use social media effectively (maybe that’s my problem?). Luckily, there’s a simple solution–pay someone like Main Street Hub to do it for you. They’re an Austin, TX based company that helps “great local businesses around the world connect with customers” through social media. They offer a variety of solutions businesses in the Restaurant, Automotive, Nightlife, Health & Wellness, Hotel, Spa & Salon, Retail, and Pet industries, and they provide a wide range of services tailored to the businesses’ needs.

Walk Down Main Street

Whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Yelp, Foursquare, or whatever site pops up next, Main Street Hub is on top of it. For a monthly fee they can do everything from updating your profiles to responding to your customers. More importantly, they’ll track your (and their) performance to show you whether your business is actually getting a return on its social media investment. A typical Main Street Hub client will see 422% more Facebook word of mouth, 68% more Yelp traffic, 39% more Google+ Local traffic, and 56% more Facebook fans. Now there aren’t any dollar signs in those numbers, but they’re still meaningful. If you want to dig deeper into what Main Street Hub can do for local businesses, you should read their Client Success Stories and Case Studies–you’ll see some dollar signs in those. If helping local businesses connect with customers sounds fun to you, take a look at Main Street Hub’s Careers page.
