Issue #260 |September 1st 2024
Aloha and welcome to the first September issue of Shark Bites!
And along with that, happy Labor Day weekend.
Labor day is designed to honor hard work and reflects that hard work is good for your community. So to help you get some hard work done this week, let’s dive into this round of Shark Bites.
- First up, $100k Club Member, Paul Michel turns a premium listing in a GMB optimization client with more on the way. Nice work1
- Next, Remote Millionaire, Jerry Wright writes in with a nice Privacy Policy client. A cool service that you can use to pump out more revenue should you choose.
A small but mighty week.
If you’d like to write in your wins and be featured, you can do so inside of the Remote Marketing Agency Owners Private Facebook Group. Remember to use “#win” so we can feature you in next week’s “Catch of the Week”.
Welcome to “Pirate’s Booty” – a curated stash of local marketing news and content for your reading pleasure.
Dramatic news in search: Yelp sues Google over local search dominance. And you might have to think: What do these big companies suing each other have to do with me?
And in a way, you’re right. However… right now Google dominates the search scene. So if that changes, there will be big opportunities for agencies.

Something interesting:
A discussion on LinkedIn recently “called out” CMOs who only rely on AI-generated content for their SEO.
Now, I personally think AI content is fine for local marketers. As long as you provide what you promise and get results, it’s all good how it gets done in my book.
But this is an interesting topic and if you want to read more about it, the article is here:
On this week’s Aloha Friday Local Marketing Jam Session I sat down with a special guest for:
Expert Agency Owners Reveal Their BEST Secrets To Staying Motivated And Consistent Each And Every Day
When it comes to getting your “big rocks” in place…
Consistency is absolutely key.
It doesn't matter if you mean business, getting in shape, training your dog, making the volleyball team, or anything else.
The #1 thing you should focus on is consistent action.
That's the trouble with today's agency landscape.
There are so many bright shiny objects that it can be hard to focus on a single path you can follow each and every day.
That's why on this week's Aloha Friday Local Marketing Jam Session, I'm sitting down with Richie Cronin to chat about our best methods for staying consistent.
In many ways, this is THE most important topic we've ever covered.
Because this is the secret sauce that makes every other strategy work.
So if you've been struggling to make progress…
If you feel like you're bouncing around with no clear path to follow…
Then this is for you.
