Wall Street Journal Small Business Big Innovation Contest Features JM Internet Group
Prestigious Newspaper Honors Small Business Innovators through Innovative Contest
-
Fremont, CA - September 16, 2011 - In July, WSJ.com launched Small Business, Big Innovation, a competition inviting U.S. businesses to showcase creative ways they survived the recession that started in December 2007. The innovative contest teams the Wall Street Journal blog with social media to identify leading entrepreneurial ideas showing the way forward out of the Great Recession. JM Internet Group (web: jm-seo.org) applied and was chosen as one of the Journal's nominees. The next phase of the contest is mass voting on the Web to help the Wall Street Journal's editors pick a winner to be featured in the print edition on November 21st.
"I read about the WSJ's call for entrepreneurs a while back," explained Jason McDonald, Senior SEO Director at the JM Internet Group. "I started the JM Internet Group when I realized that small business had a huge and growing need for practical online training in SEO, Social Media Marketing, and Google AdWords. To date, over 1100 people have taken our paid online trainings, and over 11,000 people have shown up for at least one of our free webinars. It's very exciting to be present, at the beginning, of the revolution in online learning."

Excerpt from the JM Internet Group Summary on WSJ.com
On a summer’s day in 2009, I took BART back from a job interview in San Francisco, and realized I did have some amazing skills: I understood how to propel company websites to the top of Google (SEO, or Search Engine Optimization); I had conducted many webinars online, albeit boring ones; I had a contact database of over 3,000 marketers in hi-tech; I could teach, motivate, and entertain.
So, along with two employees, we created an online course in “Search Engine Optimization” for hi-tech, and email blasted a free intro to our list. We ended up with less than ten in the first paid class, but they loved it and they movtivated us. If ten loved it, ten thousand would someday, as the market size of small businesses that need to understand Google, Bing, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and the gang is enormous! The need is enormous, as is the confusion spawned by the Google Geeks, the SEO swindlers, and the PPC Paparazzi. So we created our free “Top Ten Free SEO Tools for Google / SEO” webinar, and to-date over 10,000 people have taken this amazing, fun, free webinar introduction.
Over 1,100 have taken our paid training online ($295 a course). Small businesses crave this knowledge, and owners and marketers from all over the world have taken this training. So from a hi-tech company that existed off of advertising, we have become an online educational company that profits from by satisfying the desire for knowledge among small business to learn the ins and outs of Google / SEO, Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, and the gang), and AdWords insights.
