Then they perform in public. These aren’t the stuffy recitals you remember from your youth. These are full on rock and roll shows. Depending on the student’s age, School of Rock can take them from zero to onstage playing rock and roll in six months or less.

They combine analytics, expertise, and specialized knowledge to assist the business owner in analyzing their digital footprint, or what the search engines and others see. Using specialized tools, an assessment is given of what their competitive strengths and weaknesses are compared to others in their marketplace. Dynamic Media Consultants then help them put systems in place to either capitalize on their strengths or repair the weakness. Sometimes it is as simple as repairing their on-line reputation. DMC’s systems then monitor the various campaigns or actions. This allows them – along with the business owner – to measure the results and where to focus their efforts.

The end result? Their business will be found when others search for their service or product, their phones will ring regularly, and their business will grow again. If their offer or service is in demand, the growth can be explosive and quick.
