How To Hire A Marketing Company Without Getting Scammed Like I Did
About this episode
Marketing can build your shop or quietly bankrupt it.
In this episode, Kevin breaks down why most marketing promises are smoke and mirrors, and what shop owners should actually measure if they want booked work, not “impressions.”

• The tracking question every shop must ask on every customer
• Why Google Business Profile is the real local gold mine and it’s free
• How to handle bad reviews without looking weak or corporate
• How Kevin audits marketing so he can cut spend and increase results
