Welcome To Our Flyline Search Marketing Blog
We are a family owned and operated marketing agency. Our goal is to find and strategically partner with other great family owned and operated companies. In 2009 we opened our doors for business. One day after we opened, we took on our first client. It was a small family owned plumbing firm in the Atlanta area. To this day, that incredible family remains a loyal customer of Flyline Search Marketng. Not many firms are blessed enough to still serve the very first customer who ever signed up.
The Flyline staff is one of the most talented and dedicated you will ever meet. Once we strategically partner with a customer, our team jumps into action. They pour their life energy into helping our client achieve their goals. The dedication, effort and relentless spirit our team brings to the table has literally created life changing results for many we serve. Over the years, the Flyline team has produced some of the most amazing results you will ever see. One example: We helped a family owned florist named Carithers Flowers grow from $160,000 in annual online revenue, up to $3.5 million in annual revenues. Took 10 years of hard work and dedication, but we did it. Over that same time span, we also served other flower shops. We achieved similar success for all of those firms as well. Our team has battled and scrapped for every inch of the reputation we have achieved. Proud of our team, and our company.
We are a full service advertising firm, that specializes in digital marketing. Our comprehensive marketing program is designed to produce steady, reliable sales and revenue growth. Since opening our company in 2009, we have proceeded to build a lengthy track record of delivering success. Our firm has generated millions in sales for customers across the United States. The Flyline staff works relentlessly to help our customers achieve a dominant position in the markets they operate in. Our staff is an analytical bunch. We believe the answers are all in the data. Serving customers all across the country offers great advantages. One being that we have mountains of analytics data at our finger tips to pour through. That data is used to refine and improve our comprehensive marketing program. Since 2009, that program has morphed from a solid concept, into a tactical and strategic weapon. One that we can use to the advantage of those we serve. The historical data is proof positive that this is in deed a fact. Customers who strategically partner with Flyline Search Marketing consistently achieve success.

Why Florists Should Follow The Carithers Flowers Blueprint For Growth
Growing Flower Shops In 2018 Follow The Carithers Flowers Growth Strategy Blueprint Take a quick look at the floral industry data on flowers shops. Small to medium sized flower shops have been closing at an alarming rate. Most recently the industry has just seen one of it's largest players, FTD, inch closure to the same fate. The data seems to indicate that closure rates have been accelerating over the past five years. There are lots of factors that have contributed to this trend. Lets talk a bit about those. Over the years, small to medium sized flower shops historically relied on wire services for new orders. Their very survival was dependent upon the success of large order gathers, such as FTD, Teleflora and 1-800 Flowers. The cost of order acquisition has steadily climbed for these national order gatherers. That has lead to them keeping more revenue from each purchase, in order to cover their ever increasing cost of acquisition. Today, it is clear to all that this is becoming an unsustainable business model. There is an alternative. End your reliance on these wire services. Create your own sustainable lead and order stream. Grow your business by increasing brand recognition. Secure more wedding and event flower business. Grow your sympathy flower market share. Reduce cost of goods through creative buying and better shop management. Improve individual performance from each member of your flower shop staff. The blueprint we helped Carithers Flowers create over the past 9 years works. It was designed to deliver real, life changing results. Take a look at the Carithers organization today. You will quickly see that the growth strategies and tactics have really produced! Our firm strategically partners with family owned flower shops. We are a great fit with families who are committed to doing what it takes to thrive over the long term. Every flower shop we have partnered with has experienced growth. In the 10 years we have been in business, we have had the great honor to serve great floral companies, including; Carithers Flowers, Veldkamp's Flowers, Pugh's Flowers, Allen's Flowers, Radebaugh Florist, Flowerama Columbus, Rockcastle Florist, Mayfield Florist, Williams Flowers and more.

Our First Client
Flyline Search Marketing We Think Effort Matters Flyline Search Marketing opened for business in September 2008. We took in our first client the day after we opened our doors. Our very first client was a firm called Pete's Plumbing Incorporated. This company is owned and operated by Julie Lippitt and her husband Rick (Shown Above). Originally started by Rick's father, Pete's has now been in business for more than 50 years. Mark Lein, CEO of Flyline was the person who originally met with Julie. He and Julie sat down and talked about Pete's and the goals and plans that Julie wanted to achieve with her business. After a couple hours of discussion, it was clear that the goals and plans Pete's wanted to achieve, lined up perfectly with the skills, talents and capabilities that Flyline could bring to the table. A hand shake occurred and the relationship began. After more than 9 years, the relationship between the two firms and two families, is closer than ever. Flyline created the website that Rick and Julie utilize for Pete's Plumbing. We originally created a new site in 2011. Since that time, we have completely at least 2 separate major site makeovers. All of that work was done free of charge to Pete's Plumbing. The Flyline team is a Google Premier Partner, we handle the Google Adwords and the Bing PPC programs for Pete's.
