Framingham, MA – July 29, 2025 —

A new Framingham agency wants to make sure local businesses don’t get left behind in the age of Google, AI, and social media.

Streetlight Local, founded by Rich Sanger, a recognized SEO and AI strategist whose research has been featured in major industry publications, helps small businesses show up where customers are searching, from Google to Facebook, Instagram, and even AI platforms like ChatGPT. Its mission: to give solo operators and family-run businesses the same visibility advantages as larger competitors.

“Small business owners already work long hours serving their communities, they shouldn’t also have to be digital marketers,” said Sanger. “Streetlight Local was created so that the plumber who shows up at midnight or the bakery that’s been family-run for decades doesn’t get buried online by bigger players.”

The agency offers subscription-based plans that combine SEO, social media, PR, and reputation-building into a single service. It is already working with businesses across Massachusetts and plans to host a free local visibility workshop this fall for area small business owners.

Streetlight Local launches at a pivotal time: research shows 72% of consumers rely on Google to find local information, yet nearly half of small businesses don’t actively manage their online presence.
