Find the leaks before buying more traffic.
A practical six-step checklist for South Florida service business owners: where the website, GBP, tracking, and reporting are probably costing calls — and whether the next move is an audit, a retainer, or a rebuild. Use it before a rebuild, SEO cleanup, paid campaign, or automation project.
- 01Check the pages and conversion paths that should already be working.
- 02Separate website fixes from SEO cleanup, tracking gaps, and recurring work.
- 03Use the contact form only if the leaks are worth turning into a project.
