In this episode, Jules White answers a question from The Website Growth Club: “How can I get clients now while I’m working on my SEO? Should I be using Google Ads?” If you’ve ever felt stuck waiting for your SEO to kick in, or you’re tired of hearing you must be on social media to get clients, this episode is for you.

Jules breaks down the real difference between active and passive marketing, busts the myth that social media is essential, and shares practical ways to bring in new clients—without relying on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok. Drawing on her own recent workshop launch experience, Jules explains how most sales came from conversations, relationships, and email—not social media.

You’ll come away with seven actionable active marketing ideas, clear examples of quick SEO wins, and reassurance that blending active and passive approaches is the most sustainable way to grow your business.

Ever feel like your business should be easier to find on Google?

You’re not imagining it - most local businesses already have a Google Business Profile, but it’s quietly sitting there, half-filled and hidden. That means people searching for your exact services might be finding your competitors instead.

The good news? You don’t need to spend hours posting on social media to fix it.
A few intentional updates to your Google Business Profile can make a big difference in how often you show up in Maps and local searches.

That’s where my Local Google Visibility Checklist comes in.
It gives you a clear, practical list of things to review and update - all the small changes that help Google trust your business and make it easier for nearby clients to find and book you.

It’s free, simple to follow, and designed for local beauty, health, and wellness businesses who want to grow in a calm, sustainable way (without having to rely on social media).
