Marketing Local

What Marketing Local does

Marketing Local is a French proximity web agency founded on June 30, 2014 as a single-member EURL (SIRET 803 136 423 00024) by Jacquelin Chombart de Lauwe, headquartered at 44 rue de Bretagne in Sautron (Loire-Atlantique). The company targets TPE (very small businesses / micro-enterprises) in the Nantes metropolitan area and, more recently, the Gers region, with a stated portfolio of more than 50 clients. Its offering rests on three branded service lines: Web Suprématie (a 3-en-1 subscription covering website creation/management, local SEO, and performance tracking on WordPress), Essentiel Print (logo design and business card printing), and IMPACT (pre-roll video advertising on a cost-per-view model). The core technology stack is conventional — WordPress CMS, responsive web design, local SEO optimization, and video ad serving — with no proprietary platform or AI component disclosed.

The business model is hybrid but anchored in recurring revenue. Subscription packs are priced at €59 HT/month (Web Master — technical management), €195 HT/month (Web Marketeur — SEO and content), and €245 HT/month (Web Sérénité — full management with an exclusive non-competition clause and dedicated advisor), each carrying a 12-month initial contract with tacit renewal and 60-day notice. Project-based revenue is generated from one-time branding services (logo €300 HT, logo + 250 business cards from €459 HT) and video advertising campaigns billed per view (€3,900 HT for 5,000 views up to €9,900 HT for 50,000 views), plus €89 HT/hour ad-hoc technical work. Hosting and domain registration are delivered through a partnership with PlanetHoster, with infrastructure at the Equinix PA4 data center in Pantin.

Go-to-market is sales-led and locality-driven: free opportunity studies and quotes, phone consultations, and on-site meetings at the Sautron office feed a pipeline of inbound inquiries, supported by a French-language blog, organic local SEO, a Facebook page, and Google Reviews from satisfied TPE clients. Distribution is entirely direct, with no reseller or partner channels. The team remains small (1–10 employees), comprising founder Chombart de Lauwe plus a Chargé d'affaires (Timothée Capsek) based at a secondary office in Vic Fezensac (Gers). The firm has no outside investors, no parent company, and operates solely in the French domestic market with a horizontal, long-tail TPE segmentation approach.
