Swartz Creek, Michigan
Marketing help from your neighbor in The Creek
I live in Swartz Creek, and I build websites and fix Google listings for the businesses here. If you run one, there's a decent chance I've already been your customer.
Word of mouth moved to Google
In a town this size, word of mouth still does most of the work. It just happens on a phone now. Someone asks a neighbor for a good mechanic or where to get a birthday cake, and somebody has already searched it before anyone answers.
If your Google listing is half-finished, or your website was built by a nephew in 2014, that customer ends up in Flint or Grand Blanc, at a business that took twenty minutes to fill in its hours.
That's fixable, and it usually isn't expensive. I've spent more than fifteen years on exactly this problem, including a decade growing Haley Mechanical from 15 people to $25 million, mostly by being easy to find.
What I'd fix first
Your Google Business Profile
Your name, address, and phone
A website that works on a phone
Pages for what you sell
Around The Creek
Swartz Creek, Gaines, Lennon, Flint Township, Clayton Township, Mundy Township, and Gaines Township. Farther out, I work all over Flint and Genesee County, including a pro bono website and marketing for Kreacher Konnections, an animal rescue in Flushing, and with businesses across Michigan.
Questions
- Do you really live in Swartz Creek?
- Yes. Everyone here calls it The Creek, and after a while so do you.
- Can you just fix my Google listing?
- Yes. Not every business needs a new website. Sometimes the most useful thing is getting your Google Business Profile in shape, and that costs a lot less.
- What does a website cost?
- Websites for local businesses start at $5,000. You get a written quote before any work starts.
- Can we meet in person?
- Yes. I can come to you, or we can meet somewhere in town.
