Podcasts about google business profile

In this power-packed episode of The Green Industry Podcast, host Paul Jamison breaks down the five essential online assets—Google Business Profile, Facebook Page, website, Instagram, and YouTube channel—that every lawn care and landscape business needs to dominate their local market and book more jobs on autopilot.

In this episode, I talk about the three big categories that determine whether you show up in Google search and in AI-generated search results. A lot of chiropractors are being told that Google is dead and AI is taking over. I wanted to clear that up, explain what's really going on, and help you understand what matters most for your online visibility. I also share a bit about how I help chiropractors through websites, local SEO, and my Next Step program. Some key points I touch on: • Google is still very much alive and heavily used. • AI hasn't replaced Google, and AI is now part of Google anyway. • The fundamentals of local SEO still matter for both Google and AI. • You don't need to panic or chase shiny AI tools to win in local search. Why AI Confusion Is Hurting Chiropractors Lately, I've been seeing more chiropractors reach out because someone told them AI is all that matters now. A lot of marketers are using AI buzzwords to sell products or services that chiropractors don't really understand. This episode is partly a response to that confusion and partly a way to protect chiropractors from being taken advantage of. A few important reminders: • People have not suddenly stopped using Google. • AI search is influenced by many of the same signals Google uses. • Anyone claiming to know the exact formula for AI ranking is probably exaggerating. • When someone is selling you something AI-related, slow down and ask questions. • Work with people you trust, not people who rely on hype. The Three Categories That Drive Local Search Everything you want to accomplish with local SEO falls into three buckets. These buckets determine whether you show up online and how well you rank compared to other chiropractors in your area. The three categories are: • Relevance • Prominence • Proximity Even AI-powered search uses these categories, just interpreted in different ways. Relevance: The Most Straightforward Ranking Factor Relevance is simply about matching what someone is searching for. If you want to show up when someone types chiropractor in your town, you need the word chiropractor and your town on your website and your Google Business Profile. Things I see chiropractors forget: • The word chiropractor doesn't appear anywhere on their homepage. • Their title tag doesn't say chiropractor. • Their meta description never mentions their city. • Their primary Google Business Profile category is incorrect. • They expect to rank for services they never list on their site. Other important notes about relevance: • You should target chiropractor, not just chiropractic. • You should list your town, service area, and secondary services clearly. • Structured data, metadata, and image tags reinforce relevance. • Stuffing near me into your site does nothing because Google already knows your location. Prominence: The Hardest and Most Important Category Prominence is your authority, your reputation, and your trust score online. Google uses many different signals to evaluate prominence. Things that influence prominence include: • Website traffic • Backlinks from relevant sources • Local citations • Your review count • The quality of your reviews • Your brand strength in the community • How often people search for your practice name • Time spent on your site and how users interact with it Examples I discuss: • Starbucks ranks instantly because its brand is deeply recognized by Google. • The Joint has built-in authority because it's a national franchise. • A solo chiropractor with one location has to build prominence from scratch. Why prominence takes the most effort: • It requires ongoing reviews. • It requires ongoing content and activity. • It requires consistency over time. • If you stop building prominence, someone else will pass you. This is why I tell chiropractors: • Never take your foot off the gas once you start ranking well. • If you're outpacing other chiropractors two or three to one in reviews, keep going. • Prominence slips when you stop feeding it. Proximity: The Factor You Can't Control Proximity is all about physical location. It determines your map ranking radius and plays a huge role in where you show up. What affects proximity: • Where your practice is physically located • How many chiropractors surround you • How tightly clustered your competition is • Whether you are near the geographic center of a city • Whether you're in a dense metro or a small rural town Examples I explain: • If you're the only chiropractor for miles, you'll rank easily. • If you're on the edge of town, you might rank better on one side than the other. • If you're surrounded by 100 chiropractors toward downtown, ranking there is harder. • If you stop working on SEO, someone who keeps building prominence can surpass you even if they're slightly farther away. Proximity is the least flexible category, but: • Relevance and prominence can help you extend your reach. • Strong prominence can help you compete even in dense markets. Why SEO Must Be Ongoing, Not Occasional I explain why local SEO isn't a two-month project. Google and AI reward consistency, not short bursts of effort. This is why: • You build trust slowly over time. • Someone else can outrank you if they keep working and you stop. • Google wants to see an ongoing pattern of value, activity, and credibility. • SEO is more like relationship-building than advertising. Stopping SEO is like stopping exercise. You don't lose everything the next day, but over time the results fade. A Warning About AI Scams and Hype I didn't plan to talk about this part, but it came up naturally because chiropractors are getting bombarded with AI pitches. The main points I share: • Be suspicious of companies selling AI as a miracle fix. • Just because something uses the word AI does not make it helpful. • Chiropractors often don't know enough about AI to judge whether a service is legit. • This makes the profession vulnerable to bad advice and overpriced products. • Ask questions, take your time, and only hire people with proven credibility. Final Thoughts At the end of the episode, I circle back to the core message. If you want to rank well in local SEO, whether on Google or the new AI-driven platforms, your success depends on relevance, prominence, and proximity. There is no secret. There are no shortcuts. The real strategy is doing the right things consistently over time. I also thank listeners, ask them to share the podcast, and remind them that reviews are always appreciated.   Resources Mentioned Free Website/SEO Review: https://rocketchiro.com/chiropractic-practice-assessment Best chiropractic websites: https://rocketchiro.com/best-chiropractic-websites

Chris Lonergan of Footbridge Media reveals the exact marketing playbook—AI tools, Google Business Profile domination, and high-converting websites—that's turning everyday lawn care businesses into local lead machines and booking jobs on autopilot.

In today's episode of Brick and Mortar Visibility, I'm pulling back the curtain on a real Social Media + Website Audit I just completed for a business owner who grabbed my Black Friday audit offer, and what I uncovered might surprise you.Here's the truth: Most business owners aren't struggling with SEO because they're doing nothing… They're struggling because their website and social media platforms aren't connected clearly or strategically, and it's silently hurting their visibility.In this episode, I walk you through:Why your homepage needs to do more than look cuteWhat actually belongs above the fold for SEO and conversionsHow to structure your homepage so Google and humans understand what you doThe hidden SEO mistake happening in most website menusWhy being “creative” with page names can cost you trafficI also reference a powerful concept from my mentor Donald Miller:“Cute is not kind.”And I explain exactly how that showed up in this audit — and how we fixed it.If you've ever wondered:“Is my website actually helping my SEO?”“Is my social media hurting or helping my Google visibility?”“Do people immediately understand what I offer?”This episode is for you.

If your marketing swings from frantic bursts to total silence, you're not alone—and you're not broken. We've seen the same pattern in studios and remodelers for years: a few social posts, a one-off newsletter, a trade show, then disappearing when jobs heat up. The result is a lead drought that shows up right when you're busiest. We're changing that with a straightforward, design-first framework that turns scattered tasks into a system you can run even on a packed calendar.We break down the five pillars every design or remodeling business needs: foundation, visibility, authority, nurture, and sales. Foundation starts with your website as the hub you control, supported by practical SEO and a complete Google Business Profile so you're visible in local search. Visibility is about consistent presence where homeowners and builders already look. Authority builds trust through PR, media mentions, and awards that shorten sales cycles and raise perceived value. Nurture keeps relationships warm with value-first emails and thoughtful check-ins that turn single projects into repeat work and referrals. Sales ties it all together with a clear path from inquiry to signed agreement, backed by simple steps and follow-ups that convert.You'll hear real stories that prove small changes move fast. A designer who lived on Facebook rebuilt their foundation after a six-week shutdown and stabilized lead flow. An academy member who felt intimidated by PR landed a Forbes mention within a month once they focused. A celebrated interior designer revived “dead” email by switching to an 80-20 value mix and watched opens and conversions climb. We finish with a quick-start plan for 2026: pick one pillar for Q1, set one action you can complete, and choose one person to keep you accountable. No 60-page plan. Just momentum you can feel.Ready to ditch random marketing and build a system that holds up under real-world workload?

On this episode of the Torsion Talk Podcast, host Ryan Lucia shares practical leadership, marketing, and sales lessons from inside a real garage door company. Ryan opens with a quick update on the sports card side business he started with his son and how he's using it to teach money and business.Ryan then breaks down important Google Business Profile changes, including built-in post scheduling and multi-location publishing, and explains how local service companies can use them to save time and stay visible during the busy season. From there he dives into the “ever-changing landscape of leadership” after stepping back into Aaron Overhead Doors to run residential operations. He talks about vulnerability, reconnecting with his team, anonymous quarterly surveys, and the reality that there's a limit to how many people one leader can truly lead well.He shares how EOS and weekly Level 10 meetings are helping his company list issues, track metrics, and replace broken workarounds with real systems. Ryan explains why owners must listen past rough blue-collar delivery, invite honest complaints, and stop letting their team “protect” them from bad news. He also talks about hiring international executive assistants, losing a long-time key employee, and why he believes this is the time to level up talent even when cash feels tight.Later in the episode, Ryan unpacks consolidation in the garage door and home service market, private equity and big brands entering Atlanta, and what “max pain” feels like when demand stalls and small operators get squeezed. He shares why he thinks Atlanta may be coming out of max pain, why he's investing more into sales and marketing instead of cutting them, and why SEO-only strategies are over. He urges dealers to build automation and communication workflows and partner closely with their marketing agencies so they're ready when the rebound hits.Ryan closes with one key sales takeaway: never leave a sales call without another follow-up appointment on the calendar. He shows exactly how to set that next call after the customer gets other quotes so you can compare options, protect your close rate, and win more jobs.Find Ryan at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://garagedooru.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aaronoverheaddoors.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://markinuity.com/⁠Check out our sponsors!Sommer USA - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://sommer-usa.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Surewinder - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://surewinder.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stealth Hardware - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://quietmydoor.com/⁠

In this episode, the guys sit down with marketer and founder of Entrepreneur Addict, Matt Tompkins, to unpack the surprising overlap between addiction and entrepreneurship. They talk about the denial entrepreneurs live in (“I don't need help,” “I can do it all myself”), the fear of stepping away from the business, and what it really takes to build something that can run without you burning out in the process.Matt breaks down how most business owners are getting ripped off by marketing agencies, the red flags to watch for, and why you should stop chasing viral reels and start focusing on three simple things: your Google Business Profile, YouTube, and AI search. He explains how to demand real reports, track actual conversions (not vanity metrics), and build a brand that people trust before they ever pick up the phone.They also get into mental health, addiction, and the pressure of carrying a business on your back. Matt shares pieces of his own story, why entrepreneurs are especially prone to addictive behavior, and how telling your story openly can become your most powerful marketing asset—not just for leads, but for your own freedom.If you're a business owner who feels overwhelmed by marketing or burned by agencies, check out Matt's self-paced Entrepreneur Addict marketing roadmap—built specifically for entrepreneurs with busy, distracted brains—at entrepreneuraddict.com/REIA.If this episode hits home, share it with another entrepreneur, hit subscribe, and leave a review so we can reach more people who need to hear it.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

Tyler reveals how total focus was his biggest differentiator and explains why he quit his job rather than starting this as a side hustle, feeling that the risk-taker gets the spoils. He shares how he initially focused on a B2B play with tree companies and quickly pivoted to include direct-to-consumer jobs by optimizing his Google Business Profile.Tyler also discusses the power of sharing his journey publicly (MO) and how that led him to create an extensive, 85-page Playbook to monetize the hundreds of questions he received. Finally, we talk about how simply being "in the game" of entrepreneurship led him and his wife to launch their mobile Swedish candy store, Amelia's Swedish Candy, which operates out of a beautiful 1962 Volkswagen Transporter and is already doing impressive revenue.Questions This Episode Answers:How did Tyler replace his $180k SAS income with a stump grinding business in about a year?What was the biggest differentiator that allowed a new service business to grow rapidly?How did a new business rank number one organically on Google Maps against established local competitors?What is the secret strategy for getting customers to write a Google review immediately after service?How can entrepreneurs monetize the constant questions they receive after growing an audience?Enjoy the conversation!__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 From Corporate to Stump Grinding Success02:47 The Power of Focus and Risk-Taking05:59 Building Relationships and Market Understanding08:51 Leveraging Google Business for Growth11:46 The Art of Asking for Reviews15:08 The Surge in Stump Grinding Interest17:48 The Stump Grinding Community and Its Growth20:39 Building a Stump Grinding Community23:54 The Challenge of Helping Others26:09 Creating a Playbook for Success29:58 The Value of Information and Consulting33:20 Launching a Candy Business37:54 Revenue and Future Plans for the Candy Business

In this Real Estate Rundown, Owen and Ted break down the marketing lessons they pulled from their fast-paced interview with Omaha marketer and former radio personality Matt Tompkins. They dig into why most agents and investors are wasting time on social platforms their actual customers never see, and why your Google Business Profile might secretly be the most valuable “social feed” you own. You'll hear how Matt thinks about choosing the right marketing channels, what to watch for so you don't get ripped off by a marketing agency, and how fractional CMOs can give you pro-level results without hiring in-house.The guys also swap stories from the trenches—city inspections, cursed/skunked units, slow-bleed project delays, and the mental chaos that comes with leveling up into new asset classes and big developments. It's a mix of practical marketing strategy, real-world development headaches, and honest talk about staying (somewhat) sane as an entrepreneur.After you listen, go update your Google Business Profile with fresh photos and posts, then share this episode with another entrepreneur who's drowning in marketing “busy work” and needs a clearer game plan.

Yitzchak led a comprehensive training on optimizing Google Business Profiles for real estate agents, highlighting how SEO, Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), and Algorithmic Entity Optimization help agents rank higher in Google search, map packs, and AI-generated recommendations. Using his own profile—ranked fourth for “Best Realtor in New Braunfels, Texas,” with 248 photos and 67 five-star reviews—he demonstrated best practices such as consistent branding, using “Best Realtor”–style keywords, selecting the correct primary category, adding 10–15 hyperlocal service areas, and uploading high-quality, geotagged photos. Yitzchak emphasized the importance of organic reviews, weekly posts, Q&A entries, and cross-posting content to strengthen online authority. He reinforced that an optimized Google Business Profile serves as a high-converting digital resume, crucial as nearly 70% of real estate decisions now begin online, and announced upcoming follow-up sessions plus a PDF guide for attendees.

Quiet calendars don't have to mean quiet growth. We break down the most common slow-season mistakes home inspectors make—and replace them with practical moves that compound into spring momentum. From why turning off your website or pausing SEO backfires to how steady AEO signals and consistent social content build authority, we show exactly where to invest attention when the market cools.We dig into real-world tactics: refreshing your website with local service pages and helpful articles, optimizing your Google Business Profile with complete details, weekly posts, and fresh photos, and using YouTube and Facebook to boost topical relevance. On the relationship side, we lean into the realtor calendar—office visits, short trainings, and pre-listing inspection packages that put your brand on the sign and in the room when deals return. Pricing gets a strategic reset too: plan your spring increase now, refine packages and add-ons, and script your phone conversions so you protect margins without racing to the bottom.Professional development and operations round out the playbook. Finish CE while the phones are calm, add certifications that open new revenue like sewer scope, infrared, mold, and radon, and service every tool and vehicle you depend on. Then let data guide your next leap: read your analytics, identify top referrers and churned agents, automate client follow-ups, and audit report clarity. Finally, build a true profit and loss so you know your cost per acquisition and cost per inspection—numbers that inform smart pricing and better marketing bets.If you're ready to turn winter into your advantage, this is your blueprint for marketing consistency, realtor partnerships, pricing strategy, CE momentum, equipment readiness, analytics literacy, and cleaner reports.

Send us a textA dependable sales engine in a rural market doesn't come from hacks; it comes from consistent habits that buyers can see. We sit down with dealer and marketing director Jerald Rhodes of Creative Backyards to unpack a full, repeatable playbook for generating shed demand without overspending on ads. Jerald sells larger buildings outside city centers, and he explains why rural buyers are simpler to serve, more profitable to deliver to, and more receptive to clear, professional branding online.We dig into the details: how to turn a tidy lot into a standout digital presence, why your second Marketplace photo should be a branded micro–business card, and how short, authentic video makes customers feel like they already know you. The centerpiece is Google reviews. Jerald shares the exact 12-hour window to ask, the word-for-word text he sends on delivery day, and the direct link that removes friction. He also breaks down what the data says about trust: respond to every review, aim for 50-plus total reviews, and keep them fresh so Google and customers see you as active, real, and reliable.You'll also hear the practical setup tips most businesses miss, like choosing “physical location” over “service area” for your Google Business Profile so customers can navigate to your lot. We talk ethics—no incentives, no cherry-picking—and why authenticity beats polish on social. By the end, you'll have a simple framework: consistent branding, personable video, thoughtful Marketplace listings, and a delivery-day review sequence that turns happy customers into public proof.If this playbook helps, follow the show, share it with a fellow dealer, and leave us a review. Your feedback helps more rural sellers find strategies that work.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?  Sign up here.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at info@shedgeek.com.This episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Shed ProThree Oaks Trading Co.Shed HubNewFound SolutionsShed SuiteCAL

In this episode, Ryan gets real about one of the biggest problems plaguing garage door companies right now: poor lead handling. From slow follow-up to lack of online booking and outdated contact methods, most companies are leaking leads—and it's costing them big.Ryan kicks things off with a raw conversation about where marketing and operations need to improve during tough economic times. He breaks down insights from AI tools like Gemini, showing how consumer anxiety is changing buying behavior in home services, especially as high interest rates and job market uncertainty put pressure on big-ticket installs.He walks through the hard truths around the "stay-put economy" and how this is actually an opportunity for repair-focused service companies to gain market share—if they're ready. If you're running lean, you've got to make every lead count. Ryan explains why live chat, texting, online booking, and fast response times are mission-critical right now—and why just relying on forms and phone calls isn't cutting it anymore.Ryan shares a failed experiment with relying too much on AI for CSR work and why, even with automation, humans still play a vital role. He reflects on what he learned running a live chat company for seven years, including data from top websites that prove how conversions increase by up to 30% with live chat—and that phone calls remain mostly unaffected. If you're not using these tools, you're leaving easy money on the table.He also shares current SEO tips, including the rising importance of Google Business Profile optimization, velocity of reviews, and why showing pricing on your website can significantly boost rankings and conversions. Ryan encourages everyone to produce more short-form video, and highlights some companies already doing it well.The episode closes with a message of encouragement and reality: many companies are feeling the heat, but you're not alone. Whether you're thriving or barely hanging on, now is the time to grind, to simplify, and to execute the basics with excellence. This is where companies are made—or broken.

I sat down with Cara Chatellier, the founder and creative director of Bubbly Creative, to talk about something that hits home for every small business owner, the little things. You know, those simple, doable tweaks that don't require a rebrand or a six-month strategy sprint, yet somehow manage to make your marketing sparkle. Cara calls them her “five tiny fixes,” and I couldn't wait to dig in. Cara's agency focuses on helping women-led service businesses stand out with personality and polish. Her approach is rooted in storytelling, strategy, and plenty of real-world experience. What I love about her “tiny fixes” is that they're both practical and immediately actionable, the kind of steps that give you momentum while you're building toward the big picture. Here are a few highlights from our conversation: 1. Show Your Face Cara's first piece of advice is one that makes many small business owners squirm: put yourself out there. Literally. Swap the stock photos and text-heavy posts for images of you and your team. A professional photo shoot is worth the investment, not just because it looks great, but because it builds trust. When people can see who they're working with, they're more likely to connect and buy. 2. Don't Ignore Google Business Think of your Google Business Profile as a free billboard that most folks forget to update. Add photos, post updates, and ask for client reviews. Even with AI changing how people search, Google still looks inward first. Keeping your profile fresh helps you stay visible and relevant. 3. Ask for Feedback, the Right Way Sometimes, the best marketing insights come from the people you want to reach, not the ones already on your team. Cara suggests gathering a small group from your target audience, maybe five to ten people, and asking them to look at your content, website, or social posts. No sales pitch, just honest opinions. You might be surprised by what they see that you don't. 4. Tell Your Story on Video This is the one that makes even confident entrepreneurs gulp: video. Cara swears by it because it humanizes your brand faster than any post or blog ever could. Start small, a short clip about your founder story or a behind-the-scenes look at your work. If you're nervous, use a teleprompter app or jot down a few bullet points to stay on track. And if you really can't face the camera yet, write out your story and share it with a few photos. Then revisit it every six months as a reintroduction to your audience. 5. Stay Curious (and Keep Learning) Cara's fifth tip was the one we didn't have time to cover on the show, a little mystery to encourage you to head over to Bubbly Creative and discover the rest for yourself. Trust me, it's worth it. Key Takeaways A few small tweaks can give your marketing fresh energy without overwhelming your to-do list. Personal photos and video build connection and credibility faster than any stock image ever will. Google Business is free, underused, and powerful, make it part of your content routine. Feedback from your ideal audience is marketing gold; you just have to ask. The more you share your authentic story, the more magnetic your brand becomes. If you want to dive deeper into Cara's “tiny fixes,” head over to Bubbly Creative and check out her insights. Because sometimes, it's not the sweeping overhaul that changes your business, it's the little things you finally take the time to do.

AI isn't coming — it's already here. From Google Gemini to ChatGPT, the way patients discover dentists online is evolving faster than most practices can keep up. In this episode, Dr. Len sits down with Adrian Lefler, CEO of My Social Practice, to unpack how AI is reshaping SEO, what "Generative Engine Optimization" really means, and how dentists can adapt before they're left invisible online. Dr. Len Tau welcomes back long-time friend and industry expert Adrian Lefler to talk about one of the most important topics in modern dental marketing — AI-driven search. Adrian breaks down how tools like Google Gemini, ChatGPT, and Perplexity are fundamentally changing how patients find dental practices online. Together, they explore how AI overviews are replacing traditional search results, why Google Business Profiles are now more critical than ever, and how dentists can optimize for AI-based search instead of relying solely on outdated SEO tactics. You'll also hear practical, no-nonsense advice on blogging in the AI age, avoiding "word salad" content, and what questions to ask before hiring a marketing agency that claims to "do AI." What You'll Learn From This Episode AI is becoming the new search engine. Google's Gemini and AI Overviews are changing how patients find practices — links are being replaced by direct AI answers. Your Google Business Profile matters more than ever. It's the top data source AI models pull from, even before your website. Reviews remain your strongest ranking signal. But they must be paired with complete categories, service areas, and accurate info. Blogging isn't dead — it just evolved. Authentic, voice-based stories converted by AI tools outperform generic, AI-written blogs. Ask better questions. If a marketing company can't explain how their SEO adapts to AI search, walk away.   Key Takeaways 00:42 Introduction to AI in Dentistry 03:55 The Evolution of Search with AI 07:15 The Role of Reviews in AI Search 13:05 Understanding Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) 15:50 AI Tools and Patient Search Behavior 23:50 Actionable Steps for Dentists to Embrace AI 27:40 Using AI for Blogging Effectively 31:50 Choosing the Right Marketing Company for AI 37:26 Conclusion and Contact Information   — Connect with Adrian Adrian Lefler is the CEO of My Social Practice, a leading dental marketing agency helping practices grow through smart digital strategy, SEO, and AI-driven solutions.

Chase Gallagher wasn't playing video games at 12. He was knocking on doors to build his lawn care hustle. A year later, he sold his dirt bike for a trailer. That relentless drive paid off: his side hustle has exploded into CMG Landscaping, a $1.5 million-a-year operation, with total ventures approaching $2 million annually.In this interview, Chase details the playbook he used to scale his home service business. He breaks down his crucial pivot: shifting from low-margin lawn mowing to high-ticket, project-based landscaping, like drainage work and hardscaping. Chase reveals his customer acquisition strategies, dominating Google Business Profile and local Facebook groups to generate a steady stream of leads.Chase also shares the sales process and communication tactics he uses to close $15,000 average-ticket jobs, highlighting the consultative approach and using design work to sell six-figure projects. He explains why entrepreneurs must invest in marketing before buying equipment and discusses his plans for a coaching platform and private equity. This is the blueprint for scaling a home service company.Takeaways:- The most critical pivot for high-level growth was shifting from low-margin, high-volume lawn mowing to high-ticket, project-based landscaping services.- Drainage work is the most profitable service, followed by large planting projects, as they are high-margin and leverage equipment efficiently.- A massive competitive advantage in home services is simply being professional: answer the phone consistently, show up on time, and provide clear communication.- To win high-ticket sales, use a consultative approach. Arrive as the expert and tell the client what they need (e.g., "You have a drainage problem here"), rather than asking them what they want.- For six-figure projects, the key is to first sell a professional design service. Clients need to see a visual representation before they will commit to a large budget.- The primary marketing focus is dominating the Google Business Profile. Having the most five-star reviews (270+) in his local area is a key driver of leads.- Local Facebook groups are a powerful and low-cost tool for customer acquisition.1 He suggests joining all local groups and having a network ready to recommend your business on posts.- New entrepreneurs should invest in marketing (like a website and Google profile) before buying expensive equipment. Secure the customers and deposits first, then acquire the tools.- Making the strategic decision to switch to online high school at 16 was a key moment, allowing him to work full-time on the business and rapidly scale revenue.- He relies heavily on high-level, in-person mentors, including entrepreneurs running $35M and $400M companies, to guide his business strategy.Tags: Home Services, Retail Goods, Lawn Care, Startup, Google Business, Side hustle, High Ticket SalesResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcast Connect with Chase: https://www.instagram.com/chase_gallagher_/
