About Us
Local Marketer™ teaches small business owners how to leverage social media and digital marketing to grow their local businesses. Local Marketer is brought to you by the creators of Hulafrog, one of the country's largest online media & marketing platforms for local families and communities.
We Know Local
Hulafrog was founded in 2010, by Sherry Lombardi & Kerry Bowbliss, two marketing and media entrepreneurs with young kids and an idea: connect local parents to all of the businesses and resources in their community that served families. What started as a single location in the NYC area has grown to over 350 locations across the U.S.
After working with thousands of local businesses across the U.S., Local Marketer (formally Hulafrog.Biz) was launched in 2017. The goal? Provide the training, tools, and templates that make it easy for every local business owner to be an online marketing rock star.
