Boutique Advertising Solutions

Get your boutique online with OPTIMA™.

Boutiques are small, exclusive, and sell specialty products. Your boutique is a representation of your vision for your brand. This is something unique that chain stores can’t accomplish in the same way. However, you still need to bridge the gap of online visibility between you and your competitors. Consumers love to shop local, but they can only support businesses as far as they can find them online. OPTIMA™ Online Visibility and Reputation Management is the perfect solution for your to get your boutique thriving online. OPTIMA™ quickly and accurately claims and verifies your online listing, actively maintains your positive reputation, and captures leads that go directly to you.

As a boutique, you have an additional edge above chain stores. Most chains use paid advertisements on search engines without realizing that this is detrimental to their brand. Unpaid, organic listings (not ads) are 20 times more likely to be clicked on than paid ads. Why? Consumers have trained themselves to ignore paid advertising content in favor of trusting local listings that are not denoted with an “ad” designation. All listings provided through our OPTIMA™ program are organic, professionally verified, and enhanced — a combination that will drive your business higher on search engine results, directly leading to more sales won for you.

Boutiques are uniquely suited to flourish with CloseBy® Text Marketing.
