About MarketSnare
The MarketSnare Story
The MarketSnare story began with a simple question: How can we help multi-location companies conduct franchise marketing in a local way?
Companies with operations dispersed at branch offices and franchise locations often struggle to compete with locally-owned competitors when it comes to search engine algorithms and Search Engine Optimization.
Why? Because search engines show a preference for unique, local content, thereby creating a marketing “catch-22” for companies that franchise and have branch locations.
Creating a marketing plan scoped to enforce both a corporate brand standard and convey local relevance is not just daunting – it’s downright expensive.
We found that the most common solutions range from local sites on separate domains to microsites and landing pages. However, corporate marketing staff struggles to maintain consistency while local branch and franchise owners become frustrated at paying high marketing fees for campaigns yielding minimal results.

What’s more, everyone involved looks to blame the evil internet search engines. (Picture a cartoon caricature of a dastardly villain with pointy ears and a long cape with “GOOGLE ALGORITHM” printed on the back.)
This is where MarketSnare saves the day.
At MarketSnare, we love search engines and their algorithms. We study them. We research them. We dissect them. We know them like the backs of our hands.
We understand that search algorithms exist to help us. They were developed to emulate us and interpret our needs, wants, and behaviors to determine the internet content we intended to see.
Contrary to every SEO guru touting that centralizing is the way to go when looking to improve rankings, our research proved that as far as search engines are concerned, local presence is king.
Our Local Web Presence and Local SEO Solutions are built to meet the needs of both the CMO and the local branch owners. It delivers both the corporate brand standard assets and the local presence content that drives up a branch’s local search results. Even better, you can build it once and be done.
MarketSnare has harnessed the power of search engine algorithms and created a platform that facilitates corporate brand standards and consistency while mastering search engine optimization at the local level.
The result? A local web presence for each franchise location that earns a position at the top of the SERPs.
