| E57: How to Dominate the Google Map Pack With a Fully Optimized Google Business Profile | 12 Mar 2026 | 00:19:39 | |
If you want your local business to show up in the Google Map Pack, your Google Business Profile has to be fully optimized. In this episode of the Marketing Domination Podcast, I break down the biggest mistakes I see that kill visibility and explain how to properly set up and maximize your profile so Google clearly understands what your business does. I walk through the most important factors that influence rankings, including choosing the right primary category, filling out your services completely, and keeping your profile active. I also share how I handle spam reviews, why photos help more than most businesses realize, and when it makes sense to create additional Google Business Profile locations to expand your reach. If your goal is to rank higher in Google Maps and get more local customers finding and calling your business, this episode shows you exactly what I recommend doing. 📒 Show Notes and Resources 📒 https://www.seangarner.co/podcast/ =========================== P.S.

| E45: How to Create the Ultimate ChatGPT Prompt Using Your StoryBrand Brandscript | 18 Dec 2025 | 00:15:24 | |
If your AI content sounds generic, boring, or absolutely NOTHING like your brand, the problem isn’t ChatGPT. The problem is that you’re giving it ZERO context. In this episode, I show you how to use your StoryBrand Brandscript to build the ultimate base prompt so ChatGPT understands your business and creates content that sounds like you. I walk through all 7 parts of the StoryBrand framework and show you EXACTLY how to turn each section into a powerful prompt component. Once you plug this into ChatGPT, every blog post, email, video script, and social caption becomes more consistent, more persuasive, and way clearer. No more AI slop. No more guessing. Just the messaging foundation your business should have had all along. If you want your content to actually land with your audience, this episode is your shortcut. 📒 Show Notes and Resources 📒 https://www.seangarner.co/podcast/ =========================== P.S.
