I’M RITA SUZANNE

April is when it all started. I left my corporate job, sold most of my belongings and moved across the country with my young boys and then husband. I started on my website design business immediately.

I had something to prove…to myself and everyone who said I should go get a job. There were so many things I didn’t know so I kept learning and wouldn’t quit no matter what.

Not when I got a divorce. Not when my son suddenly developed epilepsy. Not even when I had a negative bank balance.

I struggled with my business continuously as things went up and down. I was always profitable but I was not marketing myself regularly. I thought it was because I was a little introverted, a fear of rejection or a big dose of anxiety.

The real issue is that I was doing something that needed a system. I was working nonstop but living the entrepreneurial equivalent of paycheck to paycheck. Feast or famine. That was until I started developing systematic marketing approaches.

I had my best year in business until…

That January was the worst of my life. A week after my birthday I found out my husband was unfaithful. Two weeks later my baby sister unexpectedly passed away. An event that devastated our entire family.

Covid restrictions kicked in with my heartbreak and grief in March. In May I filed for my second divorce and custody of my two nieces making me a single mom of four.

Still trying to hold everything together, I isolated myself and experienced the worst two years in my business.

As I struggled through the process of rebuilding, I realized one thing for certain – I had to create systems that worked even when I couldn’t. One day I realized that I desperately wanted to know how other business owners were able to maintain consistent growth without sacrificing themselves *like I was doing*.

I started developing and testing marketing systems that could run on autopilot. It was then that I discovered the power of local marketing automation. But I was still trying to figure out how to make it repeatable until I took a step back from everything.

It was then that I realized who I needed to help…local business owners just like me. Owners who were trying to achieve growth and stability without being burned out by endless marketing tasks.

I understood that it wasn’t just trying to do everything that was creating the pressure and overwhelm, it was the lack of systems. Lack of automation. Lack of proven processes. Lack of sustainable marketing strategies.

And so I developed the Local Marketing Method – a systematic approach to help you break the cycle of inconsistent growth once and for all.
