For the love of local.

We love local small business and nonprofits that know your name.
We're especially fond of local churches & charities, food & beverage, and entertainment but we also have deep experience serving local professional service clients.

Be seen.

As small business owners ourselves, we know how little time and budget there is for those of us with big visions, but small margins.NearME was founded to serve in two ways:
Discover and share stories to improve local awareness.
Make organic local search, social, and PR services affordable.

Why organic?

Ads only work as long as you pay for them. NearME exists to support what matters most to small local brands: earned visibility and loyalty.We focus on organic search, social, and content that improves visibility, engagement, and word of mouth whether you invest in advertising or not.

Our services

We've led global marketing for nonprofits, SMBs, and enterprise companies since 2005.We provide free consulting and featured publishing in addition to paid strategic support priced for small budgets, either as standalone services or as our all-inclusive agency partnerships.

Featured Stories

We started as investigative journalists and now apply that craft to meeting local SMB and nonprofit leaders with great stories to tell. Each free consult includes a feature story on your business or nonprofit.

Google Business Profile

Many brands don't realize that GBP optimization is the best way to be found in "near me" searches. Your profile is essentially a personal billboard.
We can maintain it for you.

Organic Social

People only go to your website once they know about you. Social media is where they discover. Brands of all sizes are getting social wrong daily.
We can manage this for you too.

Public & Press Relations

Spamming promotions and announcements isn't PR. Building an audience and producing newsworthy stories are the keys to unlocking attention.
We're press and storytellers. Nuff said.

Low cost. Low friction.

You want people to find you. You don't have money to burn. You don't have time to waste.
We see you.
