<abstract>We consider a $C^1$-functional $\psi$ defined on the ``Neumann'' Sobolev space $W^{1,p}_n(\Omega)$. If $M$ is a $C^1$-submanifold, then for $\psi|_M$ we show that any local $C^1_n(\overline{\Omega})$-minimizer is also a local $W^{1,p}_n(\Omega)$-minimizer. Then we use this general result on local minimizers to show that a nonlinear parametric Neumann problem driven by the $p$-Laplace differential operator and restricted on a sphere, has at least three distinct smooth solutions.</abstract>
