Summary

I discovered my true passion during J-term when I launched Growth Corner Marketing, combining my psychology background with my drive to help local businesses thrive. After watching my dad's insurance agency struggle with digital marketing, I stepped in and transformed his results - boosting organic search, slashing bounce rates, and increasing page views across the board. I've built this into a system that works for any small business, focusing on three critical pillars: lead generation, conversion, and customer lifetime value. Starting with just $300 monthly revenue, I'm now scaling to help more local businesses succeed. And so far, we've landed 2 clients with a clear path to 8 by August. Quick Edit

Key Takeaways

  1. Growth Corner Marketing increased their client's organic search traffic, referrals, and social metrics while reducing bounce rate through a comprehensive keyword audit and website optimization strategy.

  2. The company leverages GoHighLevel software platform to create automated marketing systems, custom web pages, and business growth tools specifically designed for small business clients.

  3. The founder's psychology background and experience running Dragonfly Studios during COVID directly informed their three-pillar approach of lead generation, lead conversion through strategic design, and increasing customer lifetime value.

  4. Growth Corner Marketing has set specific growth targets of acquiring 4 customers by June 2023 and 8 customers by August 2023, with plans to scale beyond their current $300 monthly revenue.
