If you don’t follow us on Instagram (which you should - we’re hilarious), then you missed out on a particularly helpful #gablabtip of the week: Google posts. What are Google posts, praytell?

They’re the answer to your search optimization (SEO) dreams. Come nerd with us…

  • Go to Google My Business (don’t have a Google My Business account? Start here)

  • Click “Posts"

  • Write a post (about a promo, upcoming event, etc.) that will actually show up when people search your business!

  • Start with a photo

  • Write 100-300 words

  • Make the post an event, if it is one

  • And add a button (!!!)

Yes  - it’s that simple. When I Google “Gab Lab,” my business profile appears on the right-hand side, along with the post I just wrote. See for yourself in my Instagram video.

Right??? Nice job, Google.

Have you guys tried this? If so, let me know how it’s working for you in the comments section below.

You have a killer idea, you’ve made a bit of traction, and—who knows—maybe you’ve even launched your business already.

For those of you thinking, “Sounds like a lotta work — are you sure it’s that important?” Oh yeah. In the words of our beloved Seth Godin, “It’s the alchemy of turning your resources into something that people value, something valuable enough that it turns a profit.” Come one come all.

It was such a pleasure to work with @lindsay.lenard of @gathr.in. This #feminestbuilder has that true grit of an entrepreneur, a gorgeous design eye, and rides horses. 🐎 I mean, she’s just cool. 😎 Go check out and plan your next party with her “click of a button” platform. Such a pleasure working with you Lindsay! “Nikki makes a great coach because she is a "says it how it is kind of gal". If your looking for solid, smart, and strategic advice turn to Nikki. I needed direction and discovered Nikki just as I was shifting gears in my career. I felt like there was something missing and then out of the blue I decided to set up my intro call. I am happy I took that step because it's the best investment I've made thus far in my new business. Nikki is the light that will guide you. She's got an art form for getting granular about your needs, market needs, and helps you create actionable items to set you and your business up for success. Everything feels attainable in that moment you are talking with her but the big picture also doesn't go unnoticed. She's with you for the long-run and helps you set yourself for the future. I admire her and can't wait to see where we both are 5, 10+ years from now. Thank you Nikki!” 🎨: @rosa_friend_illustration
What are you reading right now? Check out the link in my bio (or my stories) for my thoughts on the 6 books pictured above I read the past 3 months. Have you read any of them? Your thoughts? Also, I just came upon a new-to-me @austinkleon book at a local bookstore. One of the first books I read that launched me into entrepreneurship was Steal Like an Artist by Kleon, so I’m debating going back to buy Show Your Work. And apparently he’s on tour right now for Keep Going. Have you read any of his books?
