5 Signs Your Local Business Is Leaving Money on the Table (and How to Fix It Fast
Courtney Washington • October 14, 2025
Running a small business in 2025 is more competitive than ever — and if your marketing isn’t working for you, it’s working against you. Most Venice-area businesses are losing thousands in potential revenue each month without realizing it.
Here are 5 clear signs your business is leaving money on the table — and exactly how to fix it.
1. You’re not showing up when people search locally
78% of local searches lead to a purchase within 24 hours. If your Google Ads aren’t dialed in, your competitor is getting your traffic.
2. You rely on walk-ins only
A strong Facebook ad strategy can bring targeted local foot traffic daily.
3. You don’t have email or retargeting set up
Most sales happen after 2–3 touchpoints. No follow-up = missed money.
4. You’ve never run a data-driven campaign
“Boosting” posts isn’t a strategy. Smart targeting can lower your ad costs by 40%+.
5. You’re not tracking results
If you can’t measure it, you can’t scale it.
