Multi-location SEO doesn’t get harder because of SEO. It gets harder because of how decisions are made. --- At the beginning, everything feels manageable. You fix things. You optimize pages. You standardize what you can. And it works. --- Then something shifts.

One pattern I keep seeing with experienced SEO consultants: They already have strong ideas. What they don’t have is a clear structure behind them. Here's why this matters: linkedin.com/posts/codruttu…

At that point, SEO becomes harder to “fix”. Not because you don’t know what to do. But because you’re trying to fix something that isn’t SEO anymore. --- Curious if others working with multi-location clients are running into this.

But the results don’t compound the same way. Because the problem is no longer at the SEO level. --- It’s in how decisions are made across the system. Who owns what. What gets standardized. What gets adapted. What gets ignored. ---

@TheGeoMethod Sales

I've closed $100K+ deals, $1B+ in B2C sales, including a $80M record deal. ...all because I've mastered how to sell to high-status individuals. I've written an internal doc breaking down: - The 5 Silent Mistakes that make your sales calls fail with serious buyers - Nudge Theory Explained: 7 emotional drivers (use these to increase the odds of the sale) - The Status-Play Opening - why 99% of guru-preached sales openers destroy your credibility (and what to do instead) This is the document I wish I had when I was just starting out in sales. I've held nothing back. Want the full doc? Follow me + comment "SALES" I'll DM it to you.

@HampOldshue Congrats. So how long did you keep it listed on afternic before the sale? Did you do any outbound for it?

A little more context to the PrivateLLM.com sale: I grabbed PrivateLLM at GoDaddy Closeouts in May 2024 and initially had it priced around 7500. Then I saw the original tweet in this thread and got to thinking about how good a keyword Private was and repriced the name. I saw there were a few startups on worse extensions that helped validate that. My takeaway is that in this business, it helps to be plugged into the zeitgeist and have an instinct for what makes a great brand. It also helps to pick your spots well and focus on taking good, convicted shots on goal. Some will hit. Domaining will probably still remain my side thing rather than my main thing, but I will share more and am determined not to let this sale be my apex.

@JamesEbringer Tap

95% of affiliates earn less than $500/month Not because they can't drive traffic Because they get paid once and start from zero every single month I built a network where one sale pays you forever 100% upfront commission + 50% of every monthly payment for life RT + Comment "TAP" and I'll DM you how to join

@MilaChervenkova Do you also buy sites ?

I love SEO and building affiliate websites because they have NEVER failed to support my unemployment.

@JamesEbringer Their site isn't working on my end.

AI characters are getting tens of millions of views right now and most people still don’t realize they’re not real You can literally take any viral video, paste the link into Stunt, pick an AI character and have your own version of that video ready to post in 60 seconds The same exact video that got 10M views - just with your character instead Now think about this You create one AI character in Stunt that looks completely real You set up 5-10 pages across different niches - finance, fitness, skincare, motivation, whatever You go on TikTok or Reels, find a video that’s already gone viral Paste the link into Stunt, pick your character, click generate Now you have the same proven viral format but with your own AI person Go to TAP Affiliate Network and pick an offer that fits your niche Finance page - promote a credit card offer that pays $50 per signup Skincare page - promote a beauty brand that pays 30% commission Fitness page - promote a supplement that pays $40 per sale Drop your affiliate link in bio Post it and let the content do the work Do that across 10 accounts posting 1-2x a day The content is already proven to go viral - you’re just replacing the face People are paying UGC creators $200-500 per video to do this manually Stunt does it in 60 seconds for less than $2 If you can’t make your first $5k doing this then I don’t know what to tell you

@ecomchigga Shelf

found a gumroad exploit that's basically free sales and nobody's using it the related products hack here's what most people don't know: gumroad has a "discover" section that recommends products based on what people already bought you can't control if gumroad features you but you can hijack other people's traffic the exploit: step 1: find the top 10 sellers in your niche on gumroad step 2: look at exactly what they're selling. price point. format. title structure. step 3: create a product that's the obvious "next step" from theirs they sell cold email templates? you sell "how to personalize cold emails at scale" they sell a budgeting spreadsheet? you sell "how to automate your budget with free tools" step 4: price yours slightly lower than theirs step 5: use similar keywords in your title and description what happens: gumroad's algorithm sees keyword overlap buyer purchases their product gumroad recommends yours as "related" you get their traffic for free one guy i know does $4-6K/month entirely from related product traffic he's never posted content has zero followers doesn't even have a social media account just has 7 products that sit "next to" top sellers he calls it "digital shelf placement" same reason brands pay millions to be at eye level in grocery stores except on gumroad it's free if you know the keywords the real shit: you can research which products get recommended together buy the top product in your niche screenshot what gumroad recommends after purchase those are your targets reverse engineer their keywords build the "part 2" they didn't make i mapped out the whole system. finding top sellers. keyword extraction. product positioning. title formulas that trigger the algorithm. the "next step" framework.

@ecomchigga Faceless

sold my first faceless account last month for $47,000 i built it in 11 weeks let me explain why this is the most underrated play in digital products right now faceless accounts sell for 30-40x monthly revenue. that's not a typo account making $1,200/month = $36K-$48K asset account making $2,500/month = $75K-$100K asset account making $4,000/month = $120K-$160K asset you're not building a content page. you're building a sellable machine the one i sold was doing $1,400/month with a $39 template in a niche i have zero personal interest in. meal prep for night shift workers. found the idea from a reddit rant with 400 upvotes never showed my face. never used my name. never attached my identity to it which meant when a buyer came along asking "can i take this over completely" the answer was yes. because the account wasn't me. it was just a system personal brands can't do this. when you ARE the product the business dies when you leave i kept the template. sold the account. still make passive income from a product attached to an account i don't own anymore now i'm building my 4th one using the same process find overlooked niche on reddit. validate demand. build one ugly template. grow 4 faceless accounts around it. sell the accounts. keep the product. repeat i documented everything from the account i sold. the niche research. the content strategy. the growth timeline week by week. the exact conversation with the buyer. how the deal closed RT and comment 'FACELESS' - i'll send the full breakdown (must be following)

@quietly_rich Share a real life example

if you have no skills, no product and no audience, start with affiliate. find an offer that's already selling. promote it. take a cut. while you're doing this you're learning content. learning marketing. building distribution. getting paid while you figure it out. people are doing six figures a month with this. it scales as far as you want. here's the setup. pick a problem tied to money, status, or attraction. those always sell. find a whop offer that solves it. sign up as affiliate. make content with ai generated videos and slideshows hitting pain points. no face. no expertise needed. set up a manychat funnel. content pushes to dms. dms push to offer. that's it. no skills required. by far the easiest method if you have no audience or product to sell.

@TheGeoMethod Does this also work great in B2B?

Here’s our framework that's closed me $1B+ in B2C sales. And it has nothing to do with clever closing lines. It’s based purely on logic. And works particularly well for people who have a mathematical brain. Here's exactly how it works: Phase 1: Explain Expected Value "Do you know what expected value is?" They say yes. Explain anyway. They may be lying. "Expected value measures the worth of a risk. 50% chance of $100 = $50 expected value." Phase 2: Agree the Parameters "You invest $10K. Worst case lose $10K. Best case make $50K. Agreed?" Get them to agree on downside and upside. Phase 3: Quantify Their Belief "What percentage chance do you think the $50K outcome has?" Wait. Don't guide them. If less than 50%, you've missed something. Go back. If 50% or higher, use 50% to build trust. "So 50% chance of $50K = $25K expected value. Agree?" Phase 4: Coin Flip Analogy "If every heads I gave you $5, every tails you lost $1, how many times would you flip?" "A lot." ”Exactly, you’d do it every single day, in fact, you’d employ people to do it for you, correct?” ”Correct.” ”Because the expected value is positive, yes?” ”Yes.” "Exactly. Expected value is positive. You don't trust the coin. You trust the math." Phase 5: Close "So essentially, this opportunity is the same as that coin flip, can you see that?” ”Yes.” "Should we get this done then?” ”Yes.” Shut up. Let the math do the work. I’ve tried and tested this framework 100s of times over the last 25 years. It works for investment sales, B2B, SaaS, recruitment - anything with clear parameters. Stop pressuring prospects. Start showing them the logic.

@benjaminprinter Got it. Nicely put. Framing is everything, or almost. But, on average, how long does closing deals take?

Here is the reason why many agencies/consultants are allergic to 6 figure deals : (should be behind a paywall) The problem isn’t your offer, it’s your fundamental misunderstanding of how corporate money actually moves When you position yourself as an "optional marketing expense," you're already drowning Top-tier agencies and consultants NEVER sell themselves this way Instead, they position their service as a MANDATORY MARKET PROTECTION strategy Let me cook The psychological shift is MASSIVE When you say "We'll improve your marketing," clients ask themselves "Do I need this?" which ALWAYS results in a no But when you say "Your biggest competitor just restructured their positioning and is capturing 80% of deals in your space" The conversation shifts from “Do I need this ?” to “How much am I ALREADY losing ?” And decision makers don’t like to feel behind They don’t need “better marketing” They need competitive insurance Here’s what 99% of agencies & consultants fail to understand : EVERY company has multiple budget pools with millions sitting there They just haven't allocated it to YOU yet because you haven't framed your offer correctly The growth budgets alone can be $2M+ in most medium-sized businesses The compliance & risk mitigation reserves often remain untapped These are GOLDMINES, while everyone and their mum fights over the scraps in oversaturated marketing budgets Your prospects don't have a money problem, they have a PRIORITY problem Fix that and watch budgets magically appear And keep in mind that most business owners and CEOs don’t think logically about budgets They allocate money based on : - perceived urgency (fire drills always get funded first) - power struggles (whichever department makes the most noise wins) - boardroom politics (whoever has the CEO’s ear controls cashflow) But when you show an executive how their current strategy is booty cheeks and that they NEED work on budget allocation, they don't "find new money" - they REALLOCATE from lower priorities and underperforming initiatives Stop selling your solution and start selling better allocation of EXISTING resources : 1 - Find an underperforming spend (ex : outdated ad spend, underutilized tech, inefficient labor costs etc) 2 - Expose the financial leakage (ex : your team spends $500k/year on outbound prospecting, but 78% of those leads never convert because of poor nurturing systems) 3 - Redirect that money to you (ex : If we just reallocate 15% of that, we can turn it into $2M net profit within 6 months) Now the company sees ZERO new spending, just a smarter budget move Executives love this because it makes them look like financial geniuses (they’re not) Most consultants sell a single benefit but you gotta sell CHAIN REACTIONS inside the company BUDGET MOVES LIKE DOMINOES So if you can prove that spending money in one area will create multiple financial gains across departments, the company has NO CHOICE but to approve your deal $$$

@benjaminprinter Doc

Alright mfs, just crafted a banger How we took a client from a $3K/mo "AI guy" to $100k/mo+ by landing $35K/mo deals with Fortune 500s like BCG, Coca-Cola, BMW in under 6 months Full 17-page breakdown of the exact repositioning framework + how you can apply it (even if you’ve got zero case studies) RT + follow & comment "Doc" and I'll send it
