Who are We?

We live in Greene County and moved here several years ago from our birthplace in Texas. We love the fact that our new friends and neighbors share many of the same values and hold a strong beliefs honoring family, friends, and their homes. We bring those same values in our venture to share our experience and knowledge to your ventures. We see ourselves as community builders. Without a strong local grown economy, we feel the power to guide the growth of our community can become increasingly difficult. We believe that a business ecosystem supported by numerous family-owned local business is more likely to serve the needs and wants of a community.

We saw that need for small business owners to wield the tools and powerful online systems that are sometimes out-of-reach, that give larger commercial operations the upper hand.

We found an overwhelming majority of your friends and neighbors prefer to give their business to you the small business owner, but with an ever-growing digital dependency and convenience being a necessity in our busy lives, "disconnected" local business can easily fall under the shadows of the big box stores and national chains.

What do we want for you? We want to make sure you are never without customers. If you are overwhelmed with work, we want to find you the highest value customers. Is your time too valuable and you struggle to find life/work balance? Perhaps implementing some automation can alleviate stress and buy back some hours in your busy week.

We invite you to find time in your day for a sit-down consultation. We serve businesses from Knoxville to Roan Mountain. We will come meet with you, discuss your goals or limitations, and explore what ways we may be able to help. The consultation is at no cost, and we hope that even if our services are not for you, we can leave you with some helpful insights.

Thank You

Thanks for taking the time to get to know us. We find a great deal of satisfaction in seeing local businesses prosper and spread excellent service and wealth to their community. Please reach out to us if you have any questions at all.

FAQS

Why does my business need a website, I have a Facebook page?

Customers of different demographics will use different social media platforms, but all are usually very accessible by an easy to find website. An easily accessible website allows ALL your customers access to your businesses information 24/7. This provides convenience and value for potential future patrons. Customers that are aware of all your service and products will always be of higher value.

I have a marketing budget, but where do I invest for the best ROI (return on investment)?

Navigating the multitude of digital advertising is almost infinite. We believe in strategic planning, analyzing your business niche audience and focusing on capturing those customers most likely to use your services or products. This takes a personal touch of getting to know your vision and your audience. There is no one size fits all solution. Your target audience might favor one particular social media platform over another. Our insight into utilizing Google's analytical tools also allows us to glean the right approach to take when applying your marketing investment towards digital promotion. We follow up by tracking responses and examining how those marketing dollars funnel customers from interest to purchase.

What makes Lion's Share Media of East Tennessee different from your competitors?

We feel what sets us apart is our process. We start every relationship off with a face to face consultation, so together we can determine your needs, limitations, and desires for growth. We want to tailor solutions that capitalize on your investments, because we believe your success is our success. We also evaluate all aspects of the business workflow to ensure customer acquisitions are successful. Can your current system handle the influx of new inquires and customers? Does the way you handle incoming calls, emails, or web inquires need to change so your marketing investments are not futile? We can help you acquire the systems and tools to bring you into the digital age of automation. The digital landscape is changing and we don't want to see you falling behind your competitors.

We also DO NOT ask for huge fees upfront for the basics of domain registration, hosting, and website design. Many 'website business' models charge thousands a year for design and maintenance, and many of their customers are those you have tried the DIY online solutions and became overwhelmed or frustrated. Advancements in software have made this process very easy and while it does require some technical configuring we do not feel it needs to be a costly expense for business just starting out in the digital space. After our consultation, even if you feel like our services are not for you, we hope you walk a way with a little more knowledge and perhaps some insight into perspectives you may not have considered.
