Palmer Music Co is a music lessons, retail, and services shop based in Conway, AR. They are renowned for unbeatable service, talented music instructors, a variety of instrument brands, & music community involvement. They face unique challenges in the digital era, however, since people aren’t walking the streets to find their services anymore. Rather, they’re looking online. On top of that, there is the challenge of making a smaller business competitive against huge industry players that are already dominating the market. So, to adapt, they developed a strategy alongside their marketing team to help their revenue via some of their unique services and product offerings.
