Why search? 👀
Hello Reader,
I was asked recently in my Instagram DMs why I am so pushy about my clients being visible in Google and showing up and doing the work to elbow their way into the top results. Here's why:
👉 Reality: 80-ish percent of people search Google three-plus times per day.
👉 Reality: 72 percent of people only click organic results, not ads.
👉 Reality: Google searches drive 1000 times more traffic than social media platforms.
That paints a very clear picture: In order for your reach to be expansive, you've got to be visible in search.
Oh, and think you're the exception to these stats because your audience is younger, older, hipper, or nerdier? Think again! These stats have some, but not substantial, variation across demographics.
📺 Want to hear me talk about this for a minute? The video below is excerpted from a recent workshop, and it conveys why I feel so strongly about this reality:
💫 My wish for all the business owners, organizations, and entrepreneurs reading this is that your brilliance gets found, and that your audience and impact expands.
That's why search matters. If you're not leveraging it, you're self-limiting your potential impact. Full stop.
Warmly,
Sarah

I find that new and past clients alike love having the option to book a quick hour when they need to, so I'm ride or die with my strategy sessions program. I have reduced my availability for these, however, so I'm recommending folks plan ahead a bit more than in the past.
