Ever wonder how traditional business education might unlock success in blue-collar industries? In this captivating conversation, Lewis Vandervoort shares his remarkable journey from mechanical engineering to building a thriving marketing agency serving home service businesses.

Lewis pulls back the curtain on his unconventional start in digital marketing, revealing how he first built and ranked websites, generated real leads, and only then approached service providers with proven results rather than empty promises. This proof-of-concept approach stands in stark contrast to the "fake it till you make it" mentality plaguing the SEO industry.

The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we explore artificial intelligence's impact on marketing. While many fear AI will replace jobs, Lewis offers a more nuanced perspective: "AI isn't replacing humans—it's replacing humans who aren't using AI." He shares practical examples of using AI as a superpower while maintaining the human touch that makes content valuable. From writing to business strategy, discover how AI can enhance rather than replace your expertise.

Home service business owners will find particular value in our discussion about Google Business Profiles. Lewis reveals how devastating a suspended profile can be (as I discovered firsthand), while providing actionable strategies for optimization: consistent posting, detailed photo captions, and customer reviews that specifically mention services provided.

Perhaps most valuable is Lewis's candid insight on business growth: "It doesn't get easier; you just get better at making hard decisions." This perspective shift helps reframe the entrepreneurial journey, acknowledging that new levels of success bring new challenges rather than eliminating difficulty altogether.

Whether you're in pressure washing, junk removal, or another home service industry, this conversation offers both strategic marketing insights and the mindset shifts needed to thrive in today's competitive landscape.

This is where businesses often leave money on the table, but our proven system ensures you won't miss these critical opportunities.

The key insight many miss: customers need multiple touchpoints before making purchasing decisions. Rather than pushing sales prematurely, we show you how to guide potential customers through a strategic journey from awareness to trust to action.
