Welcome To Information About Business Lunch Club.
I use conventional and out of the box thinking to help educate business people while Promoting Local Business Establishments And The Cities They Operate In.

Because Buying Local Is Best

The Business Lunch Club value proposition for restaurants and food establishments.

I can provide business talks for your lunchtime patrons. Talks during lunch is the main target for the Business Lunch Club. I have heard real estate and loan people call their lunchtime promotional presentations lunch and learns. Mine is the Business Lunch Club. No need to buy anything except lunch. The lunch they need to eat, whether they learn something or not. Would business oriented presentation help build lunchtime traffic at your restaurant or eating establishment?

I am primarily interested in doing these at location that have outdoor dining and enough space for speaking.

The next lunchtime crowd I cater to is the in office, chamber of Commerce, and Rotary type club seminars and talk presentations. Again I like to do these outside if possible or in a large well ventilated room.

For eating establishments I can create and distribute marketing content for your business so you can take top-of-mind-awareness in the thoughts of consumers and professionals in the local market and surrounding communities. Being top-of-mind will give your business an edge when positioning for increased market share, a buyout, or for owners who are looking to increase their professional fame.

Show distribution can be on social video platforms, podcast networks, and maybe through public access television.

Good Day,

My name is Andrew Ledford, I have been involved with small businesses in the local area all my adult life. Most of you know me from the pet industry, many of you know me from one of my public access television shows. A lot of those in the pet industry remember me from my Dogs OC and Long Beach Dogs websites. The Dogs OC site used to be the largest pet directory in the county and drove a lot of business back to the local community.

A lot of people in East Long Beach, Fullerton, and the Yorba Linda areas will remember me as the Dave Lennox ACGuy character when I was promoting an AC company.

Over the years I have become involved in several areas of business and now I’m interested in the restaurant industry. I‘ve been involved in the creation of media, websites, puppets, characters, and active on social media as it has evolved.

I can help with website and social media consultation. I am now available to be part of your marketing mix. In fact, I am looking to build a Co-marketing relationship with your business and create new ways for you to reach customers.

I have moved all of the information about the cost/benefits, risks, and the reasons for working with a marketing provider that can help supplement the marketing you are already doing to the main business and marketing website. MyOnTheRoad.Net – I don’t want to replace your current marketing people or company, I only want to help you do your marketing in way that I am uniquely suited for. I supplement already successful food establishment marketing with something new and different.

For real estate folks, yes I can help you too. It will be a bit different, but help I can. I also host a video podcast with a cohost who is an NLP coach that specializes in working with real estate people. Get in touch, let’s chat.

My Book Skill Acquisition For Sales and Lead Generation.

This is when I was doing promotions for an AC company as the AC Guy

At one time I had the most popular dog directory in Orange County. At the height of that directory I sent hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of business to many Orange County veterinarians and other pet industry businesses. How do I know I sent that much business to veterinarians? Well, at the time I was acquaintances with one of the VCA regional managers. She would tell me how many new clients they got from my website.

I want to do the same thing for other types of small businesses.

I have also had three public access TV shows. Two were about dogs and one was about local history and attractions. One of the dog shows was quite good for my own business. As technology and demographics change, media platforms become more or less useful. While public access can still be quite useful, it no longer has the reach it once did. That is why I am working on developing new channels for video distribution

Combining streaming television with short form social video, along with standard social posts, and a new podcast show will help all types of local businesses retain and gain customers while increasing sales.

I have business experience in multiple fields.

In addition to working in the pet industry I have been involved with property redevelopment/investment projects, home improvement promotions, and industrial sales. I come with fresh new ideas. Cross pollination of ideas from outside of an industry often produces wonderful results.

Skills I bring to the table

Video Production and Editing
I have been doing video for many years and have had three public access TV shows. I have to say, it’s much easier to do video today than in days past.

I can get your store setup and dialed in for doing video streaming. This may include configuring your computer, camera, audio, and lighting.

For some shows I may come to your location to get video, take photos, or scan existing photos you already have.

The original plan was to launch a similar project in March 2020, but Covid-19 threw a wrench into those plans.

Editing Video For Social Media
Video Camera For Production
Web Design
Website consultant, I have been making websites since the late 1990s. I provide website audits of varying complexity. I will always do a simple website audit when working with marketing partners. If asked I will give recommendations so your web developer can work on improving your site. I’m trying not to give this information unless it’s asked for.

The reason I’m trying not going to volunteer this information is I know people who get somewhat upset with me pointing out website risks. They simply do not want to know about their website’s vulnerabilities and risks.

Software and plugin vulnerabilities as well as other risks really is something your web developer should be talking with you about. I follow several alert lists for monitoring site vulnerabilities.

SEO Recommendations
SEO knowledge, search engine optimization is a lot harder than it used to be. I try to keep up to date with what is going on with the major search engines.
