BTW, my first post was meant to spur conversation, test some preconcieved ideas, and maybe learn a thing or two about *this* community's feelings towards local search.

There are probably many in this community who live in parts of the country (world?) where SMEs make up the biggest portion of the potential client base. That's certainly the case where we are, and we are very active in educating our clients about the developments in local search, what those developments mean to them, and how best to get in now on the growing opportunities.

Some budgets may be small, but it seems that's just fine at this point in the local search game. As suggested earlier, a little early success is a good way to grow those budgets.
