About Me

Hi, I’m A.J. Marinello a Marketing Consultant.

I run a Brand Search Optimization Agency to help you build a solid digital foundation. Look, it doesn’t matter how well a website looks or how active you might be on social media. If it's not optimized with the right keywords, a Google Maps listing, and a solid online reputation, you’ll have a hard time being found in organic search.

My #1 focus is strengthening local service businesses' digital foundation by optimizing their Google Maps listing and reputation and building their citation backlinks for search authority.

Why work with me? I’ve been in the marketing and sales business for over 30 years. For 15 of those years, I've been in the western part of Kentucky, helping various local companies run Facebook ads, website designs, and branding, which helped their business cultivate some new loyal customers.

Getting Ranked for Search ...

I realized that once paid advertising stopped, so did the calls. This is when I took a step back and started researching what Google looks for to rank businesses in the local three-pack for search intent.

Google determines where and how a business ranks in search based on these factors.

• Relevance: Local results match search.

• Distance: Target location or service areas.

• Prominence: How your GBP information appears determines if you show or don’t in search results.

• Verified Location: Has a Business claimed or verified its Google Business Profile?

• Quality of Information: Is your information consistent across all listings, including your website?

• Trust: Five-star ratings and reviews play a positive role in search rankings.

This May Seem Complex...

It's all achievable with the right strategy and execution.

I use the latest AI tools and my experience to optimize your digital presence and turn it into a customer-generating machine that works 24/7, attracting, connecting, and converting qualified leads to your business.

Don't let another day of potential customers go to your competitors.
