Your page is one page. That's on purpose — it keeps it cheap. But there's a fair amount you can do around it that costs nothing, and most of it takes an afternoon. Here's the lot.
Your address is short on purpose, so it fits places a long one doesn't and people can remember it after hearing it once.
Say it out loud a few times. If it's awkward to say on the phone, tell us and we'll change it. That's what the address is for.
Your page holds your logo and one photo. That isn't us being stingy — storing lots of images is the part that actually costs money, and we'd rather not charge you for something you can get free.
If you've got a lot of pictures, put them somewhere built for pictures and link to it from your page. It's free, it holds as many as you like, and people can follow you there.
Best if your customers are local and already on it. Albums are easy and people share them.
Best if the work is good-looking — food, before-and-afters, finished jobs, anything visual.
Pick the one photo for your page carefully. It should show the thing you actually do — the finished work, the truck, the shopfront, or you. A logo isn't a photo, and a stock picture of somebody else's business is worse than nothing.
Video files are big and expensive to host. Video sites host them free, because that's their business. Use theirs.
Post it there, then send us the link and we'll put it on your page. It plays right on your page, and it doesn't cost either of us a penny.
Nobody needs a film crew. A phone, decent light and ninety seconds of you explaining what you're doing beats a polished video that never gets made. Talk the way you'd talk to a customer standing next to you.
This is the single biggest thing you can do yourself, and it costs nothing. It's the box that appears on the right when somebody searches your business name.
If you get stuck on it, tell us. We do this as a paid service, but we'll happily point you at the right screen for free.
Changes are $5 each, so it's worth sending several at once rather than one at a time.
Word of mouth still does most of the work for a small business. Your page just gives it somewhere to land.
"Yes — anniesactionai.com slash my business name."
That's it. It's short, you can say it on the phone without spelling anything twice, and it takes them to a page with your number on it. That was the whole point.
Plenty of businesses never need more than this, and that's a fine place to stay. But if you get to a point where you want a proper gallery, more pages, a booking form, or your own domain name — we build those too, and you'd be starting from something that already works rather than from nothing.
No rush, and no pressure. Ask when you're ready.
Email us and we'll answer — no charge, and no sales pitch attached.
