Now that you have a site…
Simple marketing basics to make sure people actually see it
Build it and they will come?
Not quite. Your new 1‑page site is a tool. But it only works if people know it exists. Here's the simple, 10‑minute marketing plan to get eyes on it.
5 places to put your URL
Business cards
Get your site printed on fresh cards. Hand them out. Leave them at checkout counters. It still works.
Social media profiles
Put your URL in your Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Google Business Profile bios. Everywhere.
Email signature
Add your site to the bottom of every email you send. Takes 2 minutes. Makes a huge difference over time.
Stationery & invoices
Invoices, quotes, thank‑you notes — add your URL to everything you send. Free real estate.
Vehicle signage
If you have a work van or truck, add your URL to the wrap or magnet. Thousands of impressions per day.
Social media the easy way
You don't need to post every day. Just do this:
- 1 post per week — share a tip or a before/after
- Always link to your site — in the post and in your bio
- Pin your site to the top of your Facebook and Instagram
That's it. Consistency beats frequency.

Google Business Profile
This is the most important one.
- Add your site to your GBP profile right now
- Ask 3 customers for a review this week
- Add photos of your work (even phone photos work)
That's how people find you when they search.
One quick win
Next 5 customers: Ask them, "Can I send you a link to my site? If you like it, share it with a friend."
Word of mouth + your URL = new customers on autopilot.
