I know that I am a lot like phillygrrl, and if I cannot find a company easily online I will not use them. I have not used a real phonebook in years, instead I will just Google it either on my computer or my phone if I am away.

When googling many things come into play such as seeing what criteria best suits a customers needs, for pizzerias, the internet is huge, however many people in that area that do spend cash may not use the internet say its 40 % who get’s there business. The internet is huge but evidentally phone books are around for a reasons, and millions are spent on them, if they are such dinosaurs what am I missing?

Thanks for the comment Phillygrrl, the way you feel is the same way many people are feeling nowadays and this is why it is extremely important for any company, big or small, to have a web presence of some sort.

I actually avoid businesses who don’t have an Internet presence. If they’re going to make it difficult for me to get information about themselves, why should I give them my business?

I love when my older neighbors tell me they’re gonna “google” it! Meanwhile, I have 5 yellow pages to burn…save some trees!
