The Only Local Ads Playbook You’ll Ever Need⏐Ep. #232
Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━I sat down with Marcus, an expert in Google and YouTube ads, who’s helped dozens of local businesses scale to six and seven figures. We talked about how he built a seven-figure agency in just over a year, why most local businesses fail with online ads, and the easiest ways to turn your website into a true conversion machine. Marcus broke down his step-by-step playbook for combining Google Ads, YouTube Ads, and remarketing to dominate local markets, and shared some wild real-world results—like roofing leads for $20 and cleaning businesses getting a 5–6x return on ad spend. We also discussed how patience and strong landing pages often separate good campaigns from great ones.If you’d like to get in touch with Marcus, you can fill out this short form and I’ll connect you directly: https://form.typeform.com/to/WlJOA0ujEnjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---

How to Make 7 Figures With a Drone⏐Ep. #229
Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━HoldCo Bros are back! In this episode, Nik and I dive into the drone roof inspections opportunity that checks every box for first-time operators. We break down why this market is growing ~15% a year toward $3.5B, how Part 107 licensing works, and the real numbers per job: $200–$400 for residential visual, + $100–$300 for thermal, $300–$700 for commercial, and $500–$1,500 for complex sites. We talk margins (50–70% gross, 20–30% net), the exact six-hour job workflow from airspace checks to delivery, and why you should sell this as roof condition documentation. I share a case study of an operator doing seven figures, including $15K–$30K days when storms hit, plus B2B channels that make this repeatable with roofing, insurance, property management, and construction. We finish with acquisition tactics that actually work: Google Business Profile, city keywords, the “drone facade” keyword angle, and simple land-and-expand upsells like thermal, mapping, and social media clips. If you want a real business with low startup cost, real demand, and no ladders, this is it.Learn more about Nik here: http://linktr.ee/cofoundersnikEnjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---
