1ST QUESTION: Hey guys! Been researching good FB groups to join near me. Looking for the "local" groups. I know we are searching for where locals are at, without diving into a "business group" or "marketing" or "contractors" group. Are these types of local groups good options? These were less clear to me. -"buy, sell, trade/ marketplace" -" farming" / "gardening" -"Who's hiring?" / "Job postings" / "Help wanted". -"local politics" -"local classifieds" -"events happening in [city]". -"rant and rave" groups -"news/crime" groups 2ND QUESTION: When joining groups, a lot of them require "No promotion" and "no advertising" or you'll be kicked out. And I feel like a lot of my posts are gonna be a "soft" version of that: "Hey I'm looking to help a local business get customers, who do you know?". I feel like I am promoting myself or advertising my services, sort of. I just wanna be honest. Things dont go well when I start business relationships dishonestly (ask me how I know! haha). Am I off here? I'd love the input. 3RD QUESTION: After you post a Curiosity or Recommendation post in a FB group, and they start tagging people, is it standard process to just DM whatever business is tagged? Thank you!

What is the proper process for opening a 2nd location, do we need a new email for the new shop?

I have a client ranking #1 on ChatGPT for auto A/c repair but they are not gettng the love on Google. Thought I would post now before bed to see if anyone else has experibced better results on AI playforms than Google. Also, AI embellishes on the content their site has. We have about 50 pages of content and it seens AI is eating that up. I will review our A/C content on Maps tomorrow, thanks, Robert

Will this work for a new location of an established business? Things are slow at the new shop and I am looking for options. I understand my understanding is when you are ranking the inside pages (The new location is one of the pages on the Established Company's Website) it is best to rank the Home Page (Established Company) and move from there to the other pages. The new shop is looking for customers asap, lol. Right? Of course, so I thought since the new location has it's own Google Business Profile it would be a better option for being seen online and give the people searching a chance to call. The new location is so new they don't yet have Reviews. Let me know what you think the best way to go is. 1) Local SEO or 2) Google Business Profile or 3) ?
