I'm excited to share that after over two years of helping a much larger agency work with niche local markets, I'll be bringing my expertise to the table as a product! I'm interested in pairing with some design partners in the Greater Baltimore / Maryland / Delaware / Northern Virginia / DC area who have local businesses of any kind that could benefit from a stronger presence in Google Search.

Does that sound like you? There's more good news - I'm only charging costs during the design partnership phase; I just have to pay some bills and cover business hosting costs; I'd rather you use your marketing money for the actual lead bidding process. Still sound like you?

There will be a few bumps of course, but you won't really feel those. You'll just see qualified leads start to pour in and you didn't have to give anyone a credit card. I'm very serious!

Why I'm Doing A GBP/LSA Management Partnership Program

I was initially just going to give the service away as gratis for a few select businesses I know I could use for calibrating everything I'm building, but the problem with gifts is they're legally hard for some businesses to accept, because they can be rescinded.

In that spirit, I'll be giving away access to my services, which will include but not necessarily be limited to:

• Auditing your existing profile and creating one of you don't have one yet.

• Optimizing your category placement abd text that sets customer expectations through describing what you provide.

• Research on how you're doing against other local competitors and what they're doing in terms of effort, how your market has been behaving overall, and lots of other factors.

• Creating your Google LSA Profile and accepting the qualification calls! You just have to do a spend on some keywords, and I'll field the leads in a way that quickly disqualifies who you can't help and refer appointments for those that you can.

This is normally priced in the thousands. And thousands is what I'd be willing to spend (if I had thousands laying around) to really test this system before I open officially, so it's a good deal to me as long as you're serious about following through.

How Long Does This Take?

You will start seeing results the same week, usually, but there's a training period as well as a lull while Google "tests" your reviews alignment with expectations that your business profile sets. I examine these scientifically with semantic divergence tools and alert you to any problems, but you can expect real growth to "catch" after 30 days, with fine-tuning being completed between 45-60 days.

The projects I set up for you will become "hand-off" ready within a couple of weeks; I'll just have to continue tending them through the process while we optimize for acceleration.

When Do I Start Paying?

When you're seeing a steady stream of qualified leads and not over-spending any of your marketing budgets, or 60 days, whichever comes first. This is discussed in our initial kick-off and decided upon contextually, mutually, and flexibly.
