The Person Behind Your Google Maps Visibility
Big-company marketing experience, focused on one thing: getting home service businesses found locally.
With our guidance, Bigyour business can generate revenue through building an optimized digital presence.
I'm Kevin, and I run Avec Peanut. I spent nearly two decades building marketing and search systems for large companies. Now I use that experience to help home services businesses show up where their customers are searching - across the areas they actually serve.
Why I Do Two Things
Because for home service businesses, getting found localy is what actually moves the phone.
Plenty of agencies will sell you everything - ads, social, websites, "full service digital marketing." Then they hand you a report full of impressions and clicks and call it a win. But impressions don't pay your crew, and clicks don't book jobs.
So I narrowed down to the two things that actually move the phone for home service businesses: Google Business Profile Optimization and Local SEO. When a homeowner needs what you do, they search Google and call the businesses that show up at the top of the search results. My job is to help that be you - in more of the neighborhoods you serve, not just the block your shop or office sits on.
That's it. Two things, done really well. I'd rather be the best at getting you found locally than be mediocre at ten things you didn't need.
Where the Experience Comes From
18 years building marketing and search systems - now pointed at your service area.
I spent 18 years building marketing and search systems for companies like Deloitte, Google Cloud, Amazon, NBC Universal, General Motors, Cushman & Wakefield, Audi and Atlassian - Fortune 500 and high-growth startups alike. (View my LinkedIn profile here)
I've written copy that ranks on Google and actually gets people to call, and I've seen up close what makes a business show up in search and what makes it invisible.
I'm also a published author on SEO and lead generation strategy, and I'm certified in Local SEO services, AI-assisted marketing, and project management.
And this isn't a world I'm guessing about. Early in my career I worked in the AEC space at Hard Hat Hub, directly in the trades and construction space. I understand how home services actually run - and that every missed call is a missed invoice.
Now I take what works at the highest levels and apply it where it matters most: small home service businesses that just beed to be found by the right people nearby.
What That Means For Your Business
Two services, both aimed at more local calls for your home service business.
I help you get found locally through two focused services.
Google Business Profile Optimization. Your profile is the foundation of your Google Maps visibility. I optimize it so you show up for more of the local searches that matter and give homeowners more reasons to call. --> Explore GBP Optimization
Local SEO. The foundation underneath your map presence -- website and service-page recoendations that strengthen how you show up in local search across your service area(s). --> Explore Local SEO
Who I Work With
Home service businesses, local contractors and independent lawyers and consultants.
Home service businesses across the United States that depend on local visibility and inbound calls. I have deep, hands-on experience in this space.
You're great at your craft. You've got jobs to do. You don't need a marketing lecture -- you need to be found by more of the right people nearby.
Probably not a fit if: you want someone to "just run your social media," or you want a monthly report full of numbers nobody reads. I focus on getting you found on Google. That's the work.
How I Work
Straight answers, no hype, no babysitting required.
Straight answers. If I can help you, I'll show you how. If I can't help you, I'll tell you that too.
Plain English. No jargon, no buzzwords, no "synergy." You will always understand what I am doing and why.
Calls over vanity metrics. I care about whether the right local customers can find you and call you - not impressions or rankings nobody can see.
Focus beats scattershot. Two services done well will do more for you than ten half-done ones.
No hype, no false promises. Nobody controls Google's rankigs. I won't promise #1 or magic numbers. I'll help you show up in more of the right local searches and earn the incoming call.
