Top 10 Businesses Killed By The Internet

Internet

And We Are Helping The Continued Destruction Of What Remains.  Why? Simple, we can do more faster and cheaper and when required, with much more depth.  Newspapers can't include the depth, the TV news can not include the depth, books are not capable of delivering multimedia.  Only on the Internet can you include audio, video and entire articles plus include full length books in a small area of a page.  Stories can be delivered instantly.  The Internet goes head to head with live TV and goes far beyond radio.

  We deliver articles, entire books, audio, video and radio right here and we also have coupons and software that we give away on other pages linked from this main site.  No other medium can deliver this.

  More businesses are now started on the Internet and less in the Brick and Mortar fashion.  Brick and Mortar will never die, but certain businesses have gone under with more to go under because of technology.  It makes life rather interesting.

Gloucester Toyota has been with the BBB since 1993 and these are the only 2 complaints against them so we would say they are actually doing pretty good.  This is usually the type of business that gets lot's of complaints against them.  It's just the nature of the beast when it comes to vehicles.

Gloucester, VA - What The Main Street Preservation Trust Wants To Waste Your Money On

We just looked over the PDF on the Gloucester Main Street Preservation Trust site.  You need to see what they want to waste your money on.  It's not all bad, but it's a lot of garbage in many of the suggestions.  We did some brainstorming ourselves to see is we could come up with a plan that makes sense for Gloucester Businesses.  Yes we are aware that our recent posts have not been flattering to the business district.  We are not picking on the businesses though.  We are picking on the areas that are anti business to the local business owners.

 http://mspt.org/documents/courthouse/6-Design%20Recommendations.pdf
This is the link to a slow loading PDF file for recommendations to the Gloucester Main Street Village.  Most of the plans are horrible.

  What do we propose that we think would be better?  Glad you asked.

Get rid of all on street parking along the Gloucester Main Street Business District.  Gloucester County would need to expand and open a viable parking lot along or around the historic circle at about where the county offices are presently located. That would be parking area 2.  Parking area 1 would be at the Gloucester Main Street Center.  Widen the sidewalks along the business district to actual usable walkways.  If the Gloucester Main Street Preservation Trust and the Gloucester Main Street Association are really serious about promoting business and businesses in the area, let them invest in trolleybuses to move people around the business district at regular intervals free of charge and not at taxpayer expense.

   As long as businesses are open, the trolleybuses are running.  This is a simple plan that would expand business in the area.  Who would not want to shop in an area that is like a vacation destination?  You could actually have businesses lined up waiting to come into the area if you build something along these lines.  It works very well across the river in Yorktown.  But you have to believe that both Gloucester County government along with the Gloucester County Triad have the best interests of businesses in mind or if they are just paying lip service to the idea.

Gloucester Main Street, New Web Site Now Up


Gloucester Main Street Village, a new web site has gone up today.  http://gloucestermainstreet.blog.com/ and is one of our new sites.  We put this site up to show everyone the other side of the Gloucester Main Street Village that neither Gloucester County officials want to show nor the Gloucester Main Street Association wants to promote.  There are two sides to every story and we decided that it was time to show the second side of that story.  This is just one of many Gloucester, VA sites we are now putting up.  We think it's only fair to now flood the search engines with sites and pages as the Gloucester County government site has been flooding the search engines with pages in order to knock down any negative information that may show up against the county.

  Two can play the game.  We are now developing a complete series of sites on various hosts and all with links back to this main site.  The objective is to get the information back into the hands of the people and stop the county from flooding the search engines.  It's a cat and mouse game.  These sites will also bring a lot more information into the hands of everyone and will now expand on various subject matters in greater detail.  So everyone will win and the county will have to spend a greater deal of time and your tax dollars trying to knock down all the flooding that will be coming.  Enjoy.
