đź’ˇ DID YOU KNOW? Your Google Business Profile is basically another social media platform for your business.

A lot of business owners set up their Google Business Profile and never touch it again.

But Google looks at a lot more than just your business name, address, and reviews when determining how relevant your business is to someone’s search.

Your entire online presence matters.

âś… Google Business Profile: Posting updates, adding photos, keeping your hours accurate, and staying active.

âś… Social Media: Sharing projects, updates, and engaging with your audience helps build your online presence.

âś… Your Website: Keeping your content fresh, adding services, and making sure your website clearly explains what you do and where you work.

âś… Online Listings: Making sure your business name, address, and phone number are consistent across directories.

âś… Customer Reviews: Getting new reviews and responding to customers helps build trust and credibility.

Google uses information from multiple online sources to better understand your business. While posting more doesn’t automatically mean higher rankings, keeping everything accurate, relevant, and up to date can make a real difference.

Your website, Google Business Profile, social media, and online listings shouldn’t all be working separately. They should be working together.

That’s a big part of what we help local businesses manage at Thryv.

The businesses that stay visible online aren’t necessarily the ones spending the most money. They’re the ones building a strong, consistent online presence.

📞 Not every phone call is a good lead. But do you know the difference?

One of the coolest tools we offer at Thryv is AI Lead Insights.

Think about it. Your business gets calls throughout the day, but how many are actually potential customers? How many are missed opportunities? And where are those calls coming from?

With Thryv, we can help businesses get a better understanding of:

âś… Where their calls and leads are coming from

âś… Which calls are potential new business opportunities

âś… What customers are actually calling about

âś… Where they might be missing opportunities

âś… How their online marketing is contributing to those calls

The goal isn’t just to get your phone ringing more. It’s to help you understand what’s working and where there’s room to grow.

More visibility. Better decisions. More opportunities.

That’s the kind of stuff I love helping local businesses with.

We’re in the LEADS business, not just the website business.

I talk to business owners all the time who have a website, but the problem is nobody can find it.

What good is spending money on a nice website if it’s practically invisible online?

That’s where Thryv comes in.

We’re not just building websites. We’re helping businesses get found on Google, improve their Google Business Profile, show up across online directories, manage their reviews, and build a stronger online presence.

And now with more people using AI to search for local businesses, all of this matters even more.

At the end of the day, the goal isn’t just to have a nice-looking website. It’s to get your phone ringing and bring in more business.

If someone in your area is searching for what you do, are they finding you or your competition?

That’s what I help local businesses figure out every day.

Google isn’t the only gatekeeper anymore.

People are now asking AI: “Who’s the best near me?”[service]
And AI doesn’t recommend the business with the most followers.

It recommends the business it can verify and trust.

If your reviews are old, your website is vague, and your info is inconsistent across the web, you’re invisible to AI.

You don’t just need to rank on Google anymore. You need to be understood by AI.

That’s the new local SEO.

Your customers ARE on social. But are you actually reaching them?

Most small businesses I talk to are doing one of these:
• Boosting random posts with no targeting
• Spending hours making ads that don’t look professional
• No idea if the ads actually worked

Thryv Social Ads fixes all 3:

âś… Reach more of the right people - targeted by location, audience, and service type so your budget goes to future customers, not random scrollers

âś… Show up like the pro you are - professionally created, custom ad creative for your business

âś… Managed for you - campaigns built and optimized to focus on leads most likely to buy

You run the business. We make sure people see it.

I talked to 3 business owners this week who told me the same thing:

“We get most of our work from referrals.”

That’s a great place to be.

But here’s the question I asked each of them:
What happens when that referral hears your name and Googles you before calling?

That’s the part most local businesses don’t think about.
They check your reviews.
They compare you to 2-3 competitors.
They decide if you look legit and active.
And if something feels off, they call the next guy.

Google and AI search have changed a lot in the last 12 months.

How you show up matters more than it used to.

Whether you ever become a Thryv client or not, part of my job is helping local businesses understand where they actually stand.

If you want, I can run a quick Digital Marketing Scan and show you what I see — no pitch, just info.

A lot has changed with how people find local businesses online.

It’s not just about having a website anymore.

People are searching on Google, asking AI for recommendations, checking reviews, comparing competitors, looking at social media, and making decisions before they ever pick up the phone.

That’s where I come in.

I work with local businesses throughout Michigan to help them understand where they stand online, what their competitors are doing, and where they may be missing opportunities.

With Thryv, I help businesses with things like:

• Building or improving their website
• Getting found in Google and AI-powered search
• Google Business Profile optimization
• Reviews and online reputation
• Social media presence
• Tracking calls, leads, website visitors, and competitors
• Generating more qualified leads when they’re ready to grow

And whether someone ever becomes a Thryv client or not, part of my job is simply helping local business owners understand what’s changing online and what they can do about it.

If you own a business and you’re curious how you currently stack up online, I’m always happy to take a look.

Michigan business owners: if you want a stronger spring, the work starts now. 👊

Building an online presence takes time. Fall and winter give you an opportunity to get things in order before your busy season hits.

Take a look at your business online:

âś… Does your website show the kind of work you want more of?
âś… Is your Google Business Profile complete and current?
âś… Are you asking happy customers for reviews?
âś… Are you sharing recent projects on social media?
âś… Can you tell where your calls and leads are coming from?

These are the things I help local businesses work on through Thryv. Websites, online listings, reviews, social media, and a plan to attract more qualified opportunities.

I live right here in New Baltimore and work with businesses throughout the area. If you’ve been meaning to get your marketing together, let’s take a look at what you have going on and where there’s room to improve.
