Let's face the brutal truth.  Not everyone knows how to run a business.  There are a lot of minute details that either win or lose customers or win or lose a deal.  The fact is, 30 years’ experience may mean 30 years of always doing the same three or four things.  Or it may translate to 1 year of experience, 30 times!   Did you get that statement?  There is more of that than you may think and more of the same happening every day. 

Look at doctors these days as compared to 40 years ago.  One doctor used to take care of a wide array of say, heart problems.  Now, there are doctors that take care of "electrical" heart problems and "plumbing" heart problems and so on.  That person with 30 years’ experience may be really good at doing those three or four things but, they need 30 years’ experience in MANY MORE things, to run a successful business, when all is said and done. 

Employees do not have to be EXPERTS in all areas, just knowledgeable and experienced enough to know what the job is, what it takes to do it and what it is worth, will most times accomplish the business goals.  This knowledge will often result in the business owner or manager finding out their employees NEED to know a lot more about the subject or that they need to hire someone who does, to teach them. 

This is where GMH Consultants Business Coaching comes into the picture.  We help you succeed in business by helping you define and reach your goals.  We set up and teach operational practices and procedures to your employees that are proven to obtain and retain customers AND get you paid for your goods and services provided!

How do you define a Niche market?  Well, truth be told, most businesses are niche market businesses.  When you think of a Niche market, you normally think of a tightly focused service type company that provides one or a few types of services.  Think of a specialty clothing store for Women only or Men only, not your neighborhood Walmart that handles literally almost everything there is to buy, short of an airplane or yacht. 

That niche market men’s clothing store will only handle “mens’ stuff” and 95% of that will be clothes.  If the business is a service type company like a real estate appraiser, they may appraise single-family homes along with unimproved land property, multi-family residential property or commercial property like commercial office buildings or manufacturing facilities, etc. 

Whatever your niche, we will be able to help you build your business through website generated leads.

The Internet marketing age is upon us and in full swing.  More and more people every day are looking to the Internet to find the services they need.  Gone are the days of Phone Books, Magazine Ads, Newspaper Ads, etc. for most effective advertising.  We can build a fantastic Website to tell the world all the details about your company, for a reasonable price. 

The website is just for starters.  Doing the real work to get people to see your website is the tough part!  Getting them to stay there and eventually give you a call or email is even tougher.  Search Engine Optimization of your website is absolutely an ongoing process until your web pages show up on page one of Google search results page, at minimum.  It's not a short haul to get there but, when you do, your business connections will explode! 

As a premier service digital marketing agency, we like to do a lot of this optimization right along with the original website build.  It is just more efficient to do it that way.

Our digital marketing consultants know the grueling process well.  We know what it takes to build a beautiful, efficient, engaging website that will become as effective as your best employee. A website that will show well in the search engine results pages (SERPs) and bring customers wanting your services or products to your store or entice them to email or call you to find out more.

As someone smart once said, if you don't have a business website by the year 2000, you better be running up and down the streets telling everyone you see about your business and what you do or you will soon not have a business to promote.

What exactly is a Google Business Profile Listing?

A Google Business Profile was formerly knows as "Google My Business" (GMB) listing.  Google rebranded the GMB recently and not much really changed except its name.  I guess it makes more sense now!

So, a Google Business Profile Listing is just that, A listing of your “business information” on a web-based platform owned and managed by Google, the leading and most used search engine giant across the world.

Google loves Google!  So, why not use what Google loves, to promote your business.  We set up your Google Business Profile account and listing with full optimization as a lump sum, one time service.  Google uses your listed business information in their search queries to help their customers (searchers) find the most relevant business, near the searcher, for the product or service they are searching to buy.

Bottom line is, if your business’s GBP is set up best and most relevant to the search query (keywords searched) your business will be listed high or possibly highest in the returned search results.  

Google says that more than 24% and up to 62% of searchers click on a company inside the “local map box” at the top of the search returns just below the “Ads” section.

When it comes to Google Business Profile listings, YOUR BUSINESS SHOULD HAVE ONE!!  We help with Google Business Profile listings all over the world and are proud of the results we see for our clients.

Google Business Profile Listings are FREE to set up on Google’s platform so, why not do it!

Search Engine Optimization is the MAGIC that gets your website noticed and placed high on search engine results pages.  Page one should always be your goal!  

More than 80 percent of people never go past page one of search results to find what they are looking for.  Search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing and others are constantly changing their search algorithms to provide better, more relevant results for users.  

We have the tools and know how to get your website placed high in the search rankings, with time and consistency, of course.  This is the most tedious and time-consuming work of all because it includes a gamut of steps in the process.  

SEO is made up of using the right words and wording in your website content as well as getting other websites to “backlink” to your website.  These need to be websites that have similar business interests and activities that also have good credibility around the web with respect to the particular search engines' opinion, based on their ever changing search algorithms.  

Linking up with sites that have bad karma, will harm your site in the opinion of the search engines.  SEO is a very necessary piece of the pie when it comes to an effective digital marketing campaign.  

SEO is one of a few, if not the most important piece of the pie when it comes to continuous search results  improvement and over time, getting your web pages to the first page of Google Search results.

Making your business known and visible across the world via listings on many business directories gives the search engines an impression that your business is important and should be ranked high in search results.  This helps your site be found within the vast sea of websites around the World and more importantly, around your local area, where your customers live and work.

These business directory registrations or "Citations" as they are sometimes called, help give your business credibility and legitimacy for your business across the web with respect to search engine algorithms.  

Google and other  Web Search tools give a little more respect or clout to businesses that are "properly" listed on business directories, no matter how small that directory is. 

Sure, Yellow pages, Yellowbook, Angies list and others are the more well-known business directories and have more listings so, they carry heavier credibility ratings than the smaller ones. 

​The big deal is, this is a tedious job and attention to detail is paramount in getting the full return on investment for this piece of the "internet popularity pie" for your business.

Paid Ad campaigns through Google Ads and Facebook Ads is another of the many ways to get your business website to the top of the search results and simply help build your business through visibility across the social platforms.  

Our digital marketing agency can manage your Google Ads or Facebook Ads campaigns for you.  However, they are not for everyone.  We can guide you when (or if) these are even necessary.  A lot of times, the Search Engine Optimization work we do is enough to get your website onto the first page of Google search results.  

And, that is the overall goal!  Then, there is the continuous SEO work to keep it there.

​Google Ads and Facebook Ads are a great way to leapfrog your business to popularity but can be cost prohibitive for many types of businesses since the “major competitors in the niche” seem to often have bottomless buckets of advertisement funds and are putting thousands and tens of thousands of dollars per month into these ad campaigns on these platforms.  

Your ads will help some but, unless your margins are high, they may not pay out for a smaller or very small niche market business.  

So, we can guide you and focus your ads to get you the most bang for your buck if that is the right thing to do for your company.
