05:17 When doing seo services for clients do you show them the drive stack? Also would you give them the google account or put together a report or something?

09:18 Hey guys love your work! Wondering if you know if any good appointment setting freelancers or services to help us build our initial pipeline of leads? Looking to get some seo and software development leads for my agency

13:57 Any advice on selling new domains that have never had a site built for them? Seems like good opportunities for buyers to 301 new domain to a product page for EAT and additional referring domains or build new site to serve as a PBN.

20:17 What are your thoughts on how the new Google Generative AI feature will affect local search? Do you think organic listings are going to have a harder time getting traffic?

21:52 What are "niche edits" and what is the best way to use them?

28:59 Why is branding so important for local SEO? Can you talk about how to improve brand authority?

39:21 my agency is a service area business and I have secured gbps for other strategic cities I want to rank in and marked as service areas. I have location pages for all the services I offer nationally including in the cities I have additional gbps in. How would you approach schema for these gbps would you create a service area page and embed them all there with local schema or just build citations for them? If it was only one service I would put the schema on the location page but not sure how to approach this scenario best.

43:27 found a local business in my area I want to approach for rank and rent. How do you approach deals do you go month to month or a 3 month retainer or something. Wanting to build longterm value but also some cashflow security so I am not left with a site sending leads nowhere and burning money without the leads getting service

57:46 how would you approach building a team of developers for a SaaS agency. I have a freelancer who has his own company offshore who is great but he charges hourly. Thinking of something that would scale and be easier to manage. Would you think doing a rev share would work? Not sure how to approach this best

01:01:03 when dealing with seo leads I find many expect some kind of ranking guarantee or some kind of specific kpis. I always say I am confident in my process and point to case study screenshots with no client name and say guarantees are unrealistic and dishonest but many dont take me seriously. Its annoying as even some big agencies in my country say stuff like 60 day guarantees or rank or refund type stuff. Not sure what to do. I personally find all that dishonest as we can never control algo updates and I feel like I would be decieving clients. Have you had this issue come up?

01:06:00 When the SAB GMB is located say 30 miles away in a rural area from the large city would you recommend to have another GMB location added and built out OR better to just have the original GMB address relocated into the main city targeted?

01:07:05 What steps do you take to explain these to prospects? And what actions will you take once they hire you to increase these factors for Google?

01:07:39 I got a new client who has 2 GMBs for 1 location. Same address, different phone numbers. I am working on one of them. About to submit it to Local Fury with the new offer from the other day. is it recommended to delete one of GMBs? is there a proper way of doing it without messing the other one up. Can they be merged?
