Let Google Help You

When we first moved into our house, it was in a brand new neighborhood that didn’t exist on GPS. It didn’t even show up on Google maps. I felt like every time we had to order a pizza, someone needed to stand in the driveway and send smoke signals so that the delivery person could actually find us. 

And a lot of businesses struggle with the same thing when it comes to their website. You can search on Google and not find them. It’s because their site isn’t optimized for the search engines. Remember, Google wants to help you get traffic. But you have to work with them.

List on Google Business

So my mission for you today is to make sure that you have a Google Business listing. Create a listing so that you at least show up there. Make sure that your name, address, and phone number are on all of your different platforms (Google, Facebook, your website, etc.), and make sure they all match exactly so that Google knows it’s the same place.

Then, optimize your website for search keywords people might use to find your business. That way, when they type your business into Google, they can find you. 

I hope this helps. In the meantime, if you have any questions or want some support, we do have a free Facebook group you can join. It’s called Get Leads & Clients. We’d love to have you be part of that. 

We also have a masterclass called the Get Leads & Clients Masterclass, where I will walk you through our process for building a marketing system that will generate leads and clients for your business.
