In business, first impressions matter. Often, your brand’s first interaction with a potential customer is visual. Whether it’s your logo, your website, a printed flyer, or a social media post, the quality of your graphic design plays a major role in shaping how your business is perceived.
Unfortunately, many businesses make the mistake of treating design as an afterthought. Maybe a friend offered to help with a logo, or someone in the office dabbles in Photoshop. While that might seem like a cost-saving move at first, amateur design can actually cost you much more in the long run.

Thursday Apr 17, 2025
When businesses think about growing online, many are tempted to jump straight into paid search campaigns. It is understandable because paid ads can bring instant visibility. But here is the hard truth: If you ignore organic search optimization, you are wasting money.
Organic SEO (search engine optimization) is not just a “nice to have.” It is the backbone of a sustainable, profitable online presence. In fact, improving your organic visibility first will make any paid search campaign stronger, more efficient, and far more cost-effective.
Here is why and what you should be doing about it: https://burlingtonpress.com/2025/04/17/why-paid-search-and-ppc-fail-without-a-strong-organic-seo-foundation/

Here’s how to turn your social media presence into an SEO-boosting machine: https://burlingtonpress.com/2025/04/16/how-to-use-social-media-as-an-seo-tool/
