Even competitive categories like PI law can get leads fast and cheap if you get location right. I helped a brand new firm run lean and go from ZERO to 12 cases in 90 days for less than the cost of a few LSA calls. Right location + right message=☎️ #localseo #marketing

A significant change to Google's Business Profile Guidelines! Businesses selling products/services with minimum age requirements (e.g. alcohol, cannabis) MUST have a storefront. No more restricted product SABs. 1/3

🎓Soooo, rather than a 'starter pack' where you can just follow a bunch of people in your own feed - a list can sit separately - you can pin to your home and just peruse at your leisure 📕

You can avoid video verification for Google Business Profile (most of the time) if you have two weeks' notice. It costs me $216 but it's worth every penny to avoid video! #localseo 1/3 🧵👇

Thank you @mikeblumenthal.bsky.social for putting together this Local SEO & GMB starter pack. Lots of amazing folks on this list!!

Huh, 40 new followers and none were porn bots or link builders
