Be a Small Business with BIG IMPACT Called the "professor of harsh reality," Dan S. Kennedy, joined by local-level marketing specialist Jeff Slutsky, delivers a hard-to-swallow truth to local small business owners like you: "You Are in a Fight for Your Life." As a local small business you're vulnerable to distant online discounters, big box retailers, and other competition, you've got to do more than merely get customers—you have to keep them FOR LIFE.

Kennedy and Slutsky present local business owners, retailers, service providers, restaurateurs, and professional practice owners with a tactical grassroots marketing plan to help increase customer retention, generate greater referrals, and build a thriving business for the long-term.
