Bernie Martin covers how he started in this industry and what we offer now.

Years ago, I was a Realtor struggling to get my Listings not only displayed all over the Internet, but good positioning on the various Search Engines. I was determined to get good exposure for my clients. That determination led to Merchant Bottom Line being started in 2008. 

I started attending classes, taking online courses and learning everything I could about how the Internet and Search Engines decide "Who's on First?" If you're old enough, you'll know that can be very confusing! 

While learning and studying the Internet, the housing bubble of 2008 hit and the real estate market imploded. I stayed with learning the Internet and all the various "rules" that must be adhered to, in order to get onto page one of search results. Once I understood this, I started offering Website Development as a Digital Marketing Agency with my skills to Realtors and small Businesses. Our business grew very well with many satisfied customers. 

When Ezra Firestone, of SmartMarketer speaks, I listen! His quote is so important that it is shown on our Home Page and is so very true! Websites are needed, but you really have to have all your "Media" buckets available and overflowing. We started studying and researching all the Social Medias. Initially, we used to offer various individual services to our clients as we grew.

We quickly learned, small business owners don't have the time, knowledge or desire to manage all these. Worse, if you start it, you must keep at it!

The next logical step for Bernie Martin was to provide what we are today - an All-in-One Small Business Digital Marketing Agency. Frankly, anything less will result in failure for your efforts.

After 11+ years of servicing our clients while travelling North America as Fulltime RV'ers, we have purchased a home and now permanently based in Simms, Bowie County, Texas. We locally serving all of Bowie County, Texas - including - the Greater Texarkana Area; New Boston, Texas; DeKalb, Texas; Nash, Texas: Leary, Texas;  Hooks, Texas; Redwater, Texas; Maud, Texas; Corley, Texas; Bassett, Texas and Malta, Texas.
