This is episode 64 of Bella in Your Business. Welcome to Bella in Your Business, where Bella will discuss anything and everything about your pet sitting business to help you land on target. So get ready, Bella's got your chute. Let's jump. Welcome to another episode of Bella in Your Business. I'm Bella from Jump Consulting, and today I am here with Bethany Nonami. Did I say that right? No, not me. My gosh, I'm so sorry. I even practiced before we came on. I am bringing Bethany to all of the listeners today because she is a wealth of knowledge. She is a moviegoer, a foodie, she loves super fast and loud cars, but more importantly, she helps people grow and scale their businesses by giving people access to the data and understanding the why behind the sales that our customers buy from us. Bethany's insight changes the way we sell our positioning in the market, and she loves fixing broken marketing systems and businesses to increase people's revenues so that they can get doing what they love to do, which for most of us, it's pet sitters, dog walkers, hanging out with the pets, right?

Oftentimes, people come to us and they're like, “I need SEO for my website.” We look at their website and it's kind of clear what they do, but it's not really clear. So one of the things that everybody needs to do is they have to understand that you are competing for attention. You are competing against many crappy websites and some awesome websites. The average person sees four to ten thousand ads a day, which is what we would see in a month twenty years ago. Not only do you have to compete with your competitors or compete with them just not hiring you as a dog walker and paying the neighbor kid, you have to be very clear, or they’re going to be distracted in five seconds.
Understanding the value of what you bring—because everybody probably has something unique. If you wash the dogs once a week after you walk them, you're like, “I wash dogs once a week.” Something that you can take, the convenience factor, and save your client time or money—that's a differentiator. People shouldn’t have to work with you to learn those differentiations. You should be able to clearly articulate that in three to five secon...
