I've been steadily working on my Google Business Page and my Notary website every evening, I haven't put a ton of effort into it really..
Just about a half hour total every evening is all that I've been doing.
I took a Google My Business class a couple of months ago and I really wish I had taken it more seriously back then.
The #1 actionable advice that our teacher gave us was to work on it every few days, even if it was for a few minutes because GMB pages get ranked higher if you are consistent about adding content to it.
I shrugged and went on with my life.
Big mistake, BIG.
Now that everything has slowed down in the mortage industry, I have a lot more time to tool around with things like my Notary website and my Google Business Page.
I literally started working on my Google Business Page last week.
I'm amazed by how quickly this has brought me a result.
Today was a victory for me:
I received three phone calls about Notary Services and I was able to book one and complete it today.
It may not seem like much but to me, that's huge.
Especially since I was able to also receive a 5 Star review from the appointment and that is just priceless!
Pretty good and I'm happy with that for today.
Of course, I would love to get back to my Pandemic level of busy-ness where I was working 3-5 appointments a day but I believe I will get there again, it's just going to take a little more elbow grease going forward.
Speaking of which, I really need to start my marketing efforts, but find that I am pressed for time.
If you have any ideas on how I could better organize or use my time, feel free to contact me.
I really find myself wishing that I was a vampire like one of the Cullens in Twilight so that I could stay up all night working on my marketing , websites and GMB.
Come on, wouldn't that be amazing?
Ok, ok maybe not.
Sadly, I do need SOME sleep, and I also need and desire to spend time with my family,
..... was that one of the Field Inspection companies that I applied to in the last few weeks have started to offer me consistent work.
-
One of the companies offered me over 40 -$60 gigs spread out all over the city.
So, if I did all of them, I would make $2400...
The problem is that I don't have the time and I really don't want to drive all over the city, but I have to admit that it is encouraging to know that this type of work is out there.
I'll tell you something that is a little embarassing.
I took a job one of these companies offered me the other day that paid a measley $8.00.
The reason that I took it is because I've been in the gig economy long enough to know how these companies work.
These low paying gigs are a sort of test to see a few things:
Whether you are a person of your word when you say you will take on a gig.
Whether it is done in a timely manner.
Whether it's done correctly and thus it becomes apparent that you are detail oriented and will do the job right.
Within one day of doing that one $8 gig for Trendsource, they are now offering me exterior property inspections and the other $60 gigs that I was writing about earlier.
Just something I thought I would mention.
Today was a good day !
