The newsletter to grow your local business
Simple marketing moves that work for a local business. No theory, no jargon, nothing you need a degree for. Things you can put to use this week, from the person who does this work every day.
Start with the 3 tips
The three tips are available to read on this site immediately. You can also register your interest in future BCM emails below. Automatic email delivery is not active yet, so this form does not send an email to your inbox.
Read the 3 tips without signing up.
What you get
One fix per email
One thing per email that gets a local business more customers from Google: a profile setting, a review habit, a page on the site. What it is, why it matters, how to do it in an afternoon.
Real searches, real towns
What shows up when someone in a Boston area town searches for a plumber, a med spa or a mechanic, what the three businesses on the map did right, and what the rest got wrong.
The order to do it in
Most owners fix the wrong thing first. I tell you what to fix now, what can wait, and what to leave alone, so your hour a week goes where it moves the ranking.
Read the articles
You can read the marketing articles without signing up. These are website articles, not a record of previously delivered emails. Start with how Google picks the top 3 on Maps for the ground rules, or why you are not in the top 3 for the fix list.
Questions people ask
What is in the newsletter?
Short emails about getting local customers from Google: the Google Business Profile, reviews, the website, and what to fix in what order. Sometimes I walk through a real search in a real town and show what the top 3 did.
How often will you email me?
Email delivery has not launched. Signing up registers your interest in future emails; it does not trigger an email. The three tips are available on this site now.
Is it free?
Yes. The 3 tips and every email after them cost nothing and there is no obligation. If I ever mention something paid, it is one line at the end of an email that is useful without it.
Who writes it?
Brandon Medina, me. I run BCM Results by myself and do the work for my clients myself, so what I write is what I did that week or saw work in a real search. No ghostwriter.
Can I get help instead of reading?
Yes. The plan is the same work, done for you: top 3 on Google Maps within 90 days, or billing pauses until you are there. To see the exact gaps first, start with the free analysis and you get them in writing within 2 business days.
How do I stop?
Email [email protected] from the address you registered and ask to withdraw your interest. Requests are handled manually. No automated unsubscribe link is available yet, and newsletters will not launch until unsubscribe handling is ready.
If you would rather have it done than read about it, the plan is one page and takes ten minutes to read. Businesses in Framingham and around Boston are close to home; everyone else gets the same work by email and on a call.
