📈 Stop Guessing. Start Targeting: Local Marketing That Actually Works - 121
Manage episode 519883879 series 2663950
In this episode of the Brand Up Podcast, we break down the real mechanics behind local marketing — the stuff that actually moves the needle when you’re building a service-based business.
We get into why Groupon brings price-shoppers, why Google Maps ads are the easiest entry point, and how $10/day can turn into a year of recurring revenue if you understand your ideal client and stick to a long-term plan.
You’ll hear why most owners fail at ads (hint: they quit after one bad day), how to build a referral engine without killing your margins, and why knowing your customer’s age, job, and spending habits affects everything from your offer to your headline.
We also cover:
- How to pick winning keywords for Google Maps ads
- Why intent beats impressions every single time
- The psychology of raising your prices without tanking your retention
- How to stop blending in and start dominating your local area
- Why “every business is pay-to-play” — either with time or money
- The mindset shift that separates people who scale from people who stall
If you’re serious about growing locally — not hoping, not guessing — this episode gives you the roadmap and the reality check.
