Description

If you’re starting from scratch (or rebooting) your lash business, this episode gives you the exact order of operations to get found fastβ€”without a website. We break down why you should launch Google My Business (GMB) first, plug your Instagram URL everywhere a β€œwebsite” is requested, and then use IG as your all-in-one mini site to convert views into bookings.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why GMB first: show up in local search/maps, post photos/videos (≀59s), and spy top listings to reverse-engineer keywords, descriptions, and posting cadence.
  • Use IG as your β€˜website’: optimize bio with lash keywords, align name/handles across platforms, and drop the same IG link into GMB, FB, and directories.
  • The 9-post rule: what your first grid should include (before/afters, social proof, offer, FAQs) before running any ads.
  • High-leverage IG features: feed for authority, Stories for trust, Highlights for testimonials/services, pinned posts for your main offer, Reels for reach, DMs to close, Lives for Q&A.
  • Easy ad setup (Boost that works): target by city/ZIP + women 25+, objective = More messages, simple before/after creative, clear CTA (β€œDM for details”).
  • Offer strategy: beat competitors’ intro deal without undercutting your brand; promo on the full set, or discount the first refill depending on calendar capacity.
  • Math that matters: client LTV (e.g., $2,200/year scenario) so a $300 monthly test budget makes senseβ€”and how to judge results beyond vanity metrics.
  • Facebook made simple: connect your FB Page so every IG post cross-publishesβ€”no extra work.
  • Consistency plan: daily micro-posts, repurpose Reels to GMB/FB, and keep your grid fresh so Google/clients see you’re active.

Quick start checklist:

  1. Claim/optimize GMB β†’ add photos, short videos, services, IG URL.
  2. Create/optimize IG business account β†’ bio keywords + city, pin offer.
  3. Post your first 9.
  4. Boost the promo post ($10/day) β†’ objective: messages.
  5. Close in the DMs with a simple script and collect Google reviews after every visit.
