Meet Ryan Burton of Leads Near Me ®

Today we’d like to introduce you to Ryan Burton.

Ryan, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I am a marketing guy. Not a typical journey. It all started with music. I was in a rock band when I was in my early teens. I loved music, I loved radio. When I was in my late teens, I got a job on air. When I left music in my mid 20’s (my band actually did a little something for a while) I became a radio DJ full time. In the late 90’s, I left DJ-ing and moved into radio sales. I am originally from Canada. Radio sales went well. In 2003, I was offered a job by Cumulus Media in Macon, GA and I moved from Canada to Georgia. In 2006, I left radio and moved into digital with Bellsouth/AT&T. In 2012, I started my own company and haven’t looked back. We have multiple clients in many states and we are responsible for all their marketing activities (mainly digital).

Has it been a smooth road?
There are challenges every day. But going into business was the best decision of my career. I wish I did it 20 years ago.

So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Leads Near Me ® story. Tell us more about the business.
We specialize in Google AdWords MGMT and SEO. We are a Google Certified Partner and ranking experts. But really, when we deal with our clients, it is always from a ground up perspective. We look at everything. We track calls so we give phone tips and advice. We sit in their stores, so we give selling advice. Just anything anytime we feel can help grow their business.

What sets you apart from others? I think if you look at our reviews on Google you will see that we legitimately care for our clients. We talk to some every day, some every few months. Whatever it takes to win.

How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
Digital is the now. Hard to say. I jokingly say, “I need to prepare for after Google”. Because one day, it will come. It is hard to imagine more accessibility that what we have now. So I think customization, but I have not seen it get better that what we have right now. Nothing beats showing up on a high intent Google search (in Oct 2017).
