GBP Agency Coaching

Build a Google Business Profile agency, using the same blueprint we used to build ours.

1-on-1 and group coaching for people who want to start (or finally get moving on) a local marketing agency — Google Business Profile, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, web design, and content, taught by someone who's actually run the agency.

Who This Is For

You don't need to be technical. You need a plan.

Most people who want to start a GBP agency get stuck in the same place — too much scattered YouTube advice, no real order of operations, no one to check their work. This coaching exists to fix that.

Starting From Zero

You want a business built around a skill that's actually in demand right now, and Google Business Profile is the entry point — but you don't know where to start.

Freelancers & Marketers

You already do web design, social media, or content work for clients and want to add GBP and local SEO as a service — without guessing at what actually moves rankings.

Stalled Agency Owners

You've started an agency but it's stuck at one or two clients. You need a second set of eyes on your offer, your process, and how you're finding clients.

The Curriculum

Six stages, in the order you'll actually use them

This isn't a course library to binge. It's a build sequence — each stage sets up the next one, the same way we'd approach it with a real client.

01

GBP Fundamentals

Profile setup, categories, ranking factors, and the map pack in plain terms.

02

Facebook Pages

Setting up and maintaining a Facebook presence that supports the profile, not competes with it.

03

LinkedIn Marketing

Using LinkedIn to build authority and to find your own clients.

04

Web Design + GBP

Building or fixing a client's site so it reinforces the profile instead of working against it.

05

Running The Agency

Packaging it into an offer, pricing it, and getting your first paying clients.

Why Learn From Me

I'm not teaching theory — I'm teaching what's currently working in a real agency.

Most GBP courses are built by people who've optimized a few profiles and turned it into an info product. My background is different: two decades in internet marketing, currently running a local SEO agency with real clients, in categories where competition is real. When I teach you a step, it's because it's the step I'm using this month, not a screenshot from three years ago.

Coaching with me means you're getting the order of operations, the mistakes to skip, and honest feedback on whether your plan will actually get clients — not just more information to sort through on your own.

Questions

Before you apply

Do I need marketing experience to start?

No. The curriculum is built to take you from zero, but it moves quickly if you already have some background in web design, social media, or freelancing.

What's the difference between 1-on-1 and group coaching?

1-on-1 is built entirely around your situation and moves at your pace with direct feedback. Group coaching follows the same six-stage curriculum on a shared schedule, with the benefit of learning alongside other people building at the same time.

Will I actually land clients, or is this just training?

The curriculum includes packaging and pricing your offer and finding your first clients — it's built to end with a business, not just a set of skills.

How do I know if this is the right fit?
