The costs of advertising are limited for any small business.
Positive Google reviews help grow my business. So, does word of mouth. And other traditional advertising modes are just cost prohibitive and or expensive.
Since this business was new a few years back, it made some sense to advertise with Google. Google advertising was expensive, and my largest expense. And it was unclear to new patrons whether they saw an "AD" or just saw the results of a free Google business search.

== Online Advertising and Google Reviews
Currently, random ads with Face Book, and a Google search "business listing" and Yellow pages online. All insurance providers lists Registered Massage Therapists on their sites, as well I reciprocally list them on my website.
Yes, I have a Google business listing in their "Google search" website.
However, I do not advertise with Bing, Yelp, Fresha, Okanagan Local, or other 'parasitic' websites that steal my content for their gain. Please avoid these websites.
Free Google Searches for business's:
When you Google search "RMT Penticton new patients", the are a list of results, down a wee bit on the list.
Search results are random, and Google does not adhere to any Regulations regarding the use of "Restricted Titles" of the College of Massage Therapists of BC. So, unfortunately the more generalized the search "massage therapy" or "Massage Therapist", yield similar less accurate results as this included anyone whom uses "massage" in their description.
