OUR STORY
​Helping Businesses Reach Their Markets, BETTER!
Hi, I’m Patrick Arebalo — a father, founder, and passionate believer in building better businesses through smarter strategies.
​
My journey started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Like many people trying to keep sane and stay grounded, I spent a lot of time walking around my community with my son. What I saw broke my heart — local businesses, some that had been around for decades, shutting down one after another. Not because their products weren’t good. Not because people didn’t want what they offered. But because they didn’t have the digital presence to survive when the world suddenly shifted online.
​
I realized that these businesses didn’t fail—they were failed. Failed by a system that favored the big brands and tech-savvy chains. Failed because they didn’t have access to the tools or people who could guide them through the transition into the digital world.
​
So, I built The Better Business Market — a platform designed to bring modern digital solutions to local businesses who simply need a helping hand. With a background in business administration, marketing, sales strategy, and IT infrastructure, I combined my skills and experience into a mission: Help good businesses not only stay open—but thrive.
​
Today, I help small and mid-sized businesses across Southern California and beyond do things like:
-
Show up first on Google and Yelp
-
Sell their products online (without the headaches)
-
Clean up digital messes and outdated systems
-
Build a brand that earns trust and attention
I’ve been in the trenches—managing teams, launching campaigns, training staff, fixing tech, building ecommerce platforms, and working hand-in-hand with store owners and dreamers who just needed someone who cared.
​
This work isn’t just business to me—it’s personal. Because every time I help a shop stay open, a restaurant fill their tables, or a family-run company grow online, I know I’m doing what I was meant to do.
​
The Better Business Market isn’t just a name.
It’s my promise.
