Tue, 30 Jun 26 Gemini + Google Business Profile: What’s New - New “Business Notebook” feature connects Gemini to a Google Business Profile - Gemini reads the business’s website and GBP to build a brand snapshot - Proactively surfaces action items: unanswered reviews, missing profile info, overdue posts - Suggests tasks across marketing, customer understanding, and growth - Key demo use cases shown: - Brand positioning analysis based on customer reviews - 3-month growth plan tailored to local market (Austin example) - 7-day social media content calendar with captions and brand rationale - Standout early testing examples: - SF clothing brand used Gemini to model limited-drop vs. evergreen revenue scenarios - Fish shop in Austin: Gemini audited categories, spotted missing “oyster bar” tag, and set it directly from the chat window Availability, Scope, and Privacy - Rolling out globally in coming weeks, 40+ languages, most regions - UK and EEA excluded for now, support coming - Currently for single-location businesses only; multi-location and agency support on the roadmap - Initial access for personal Gmail accounts; Workspace support in progress - Workspace accounts get fully siloed data, no leakage to Gemini - Consumer accounts: profile performance data (impressions, etc.) also stays private Roadmap and Advice for Getting Started - Two near-term priorities flagged: - Expansion: all regions, all account types, mobile access - Persistent business context: Gemini understands your business across all chats, not just inside the notebook - Review reply publishing in Gemini is in progress but not yet live - Challenge: avoiding low-effort, inauthentic AI-generated replies at scale - Advice for small businesses new to AI: - Just start: try the tools, there’s no wrong way to begin - Upload more data (business plans, P&L) to get more personalized responses - Push the tool to its limits and revisit every few months as it evolves

Alright… REPLAY IS LIVE HERE - https://promolyai.lovable.app Something kind of crazy happened. I was building something simple for a couple local businesses… …and accidentally closed 2 local clients with it almost immediately. Not from some giant complicated funnel. Not from cold ads. Not from months of setup. Just a ridiculously simple AI-powered agency offer that completely blew their minds when they saw it. So tomorrow… I’m breaking down EXACTLY what I showed them. And to make this fun… I’m doing a $500 prize pool. 5 people are getting $100 each. Here’s how to qualify: 1. Comment “$100” below this post 2. Register for tomorrow’s live call: LINK - https://promolyai.lovable.app That’s it. Then show up live tomorrow at: 2PM Eastern / 11AM Pacific and during the training… I’ll reveal the specific thing the first 5 people can do to win the $100. PayPal. Amazon gift card. Whatever’s easiest. And yes…people from previous giveaways already know I actually pay out fast. What’s exciting about this: • It’s AI-powered • It’s one of the easiest “foot in the door” offers I’ve seen in years • It ties directly into Reviewly fulfillment • It can be used with Review Rush • It’s simple enough to deploy FAST • And honestly… I think a lot of people are overcomplicating agency sales right now This came out of nowhere for us internally… …but when something starts closing quickly in the real world… you lean into it. Tomorrow I’ll show you exactly what happened. Comment “$100” below and register now before you forget. See you live. – Herschy

EDIT - Listen to the second video - The AI Spotlight works. This is from a real world demo call. Early Bird - "Anti-Labor" Day Special is Live - https://jeffherschy.com/spotlight Original Post Below :) Last night I couldn’t sleep. My brain was racing a million miles an hour because I finally cracked a problem I’ve been wrestling with for months. By 11pm I was up, scribbling notes, writing outreach copy, and even buying a new domain. By 1:45am, I had the bones of a brand-new system that changes the game for agencies and local businesses. I’m calling it AI Spotlight — built around AI SEO (what business owners call it) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) (what it actually is). Here’s the big shift: ✅ SEO = rankings in Google. ✅ GEO = visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Siri, etc. SEO gets you found.GEO gets you featured. And I’ve finally found a way to deliver GEO as a hands-off, done-for-you service that takes 10 minutes to set up, and then runs automatically. 👉 I already have clients paying $250–$500/month for this. 👉 It comes with 30-day guaranteed results (AI referrals in analytics, or money back). 👉 I’ve paired it with a back-end monitoring system so you don’t need to mess with Google Search Console. This is a core + trend combo: reviews & reputation (core) + AI SEO/GEO (trend). It’s the perfect foot-in-the-door that makes business owners perk up, because they’ve heard about AI SEO but have no idea how it works. I’m putting everything together under the AI Spotlight brand and will be teaching it this Labor Day weekend as my “Anti-Labor Day” project. Want in? If you want access to this system — the same one I’m now offering in my own agency — type SPOTLIGHT down below. I’ll give you: - The setup process (10 minutes start to finish) - The fulfillment tools (done-for-you) - The monitoring/reporting system (no more guessing) - The exact cold outreach I wrote at midnight last night
