My $5000 Bet with Spencer Lawn Care

Hey, everyone, it's Mike Candies. And it's not bragging if it's true. Today is Thursday, December 23, 2001. Well, this means that exactly three months ago, I made a bet that we would have Spencer Lawn Care's website that we built for them ranking the number one business in their local area. And today, December 23rd, the results are in. Before we get to today's results, let's go back three months ago, exactly three months ago, and show you what I said on a live video. Now, what you're not going to see is what happened later that week when our team got together and had a meeting. And they were like, what did you do? You can't guarantee somebody that they're gonna rank well in Google because there's a lot of factors outside of our control, like if they don't get good, good Google reviews, if they don't get a lot of traffic, they don't run any ads. That helps a lot during your first couple months. But I was confident because we've done this now well over 70, 80 times for different landscapers. And then at Augusta Lawn Care, we've done this now 75 plus times as well. So we know SEO really well, and lawn carewebdesign.com is where we built these websites. And our team here locally is very proud that today, today, December 23rd, on the day that the bet ended, when I would have to give up $5,000, we hit the number one ranked lawn care business in their area. So let me go ahead and show you the video from three months ago that I got torn apart for afterwards because our team was like, I don't know if that's true. I don't know if we can do that. You don't promise those things. But we pulled it off today. Literally even a week ago, it was not ranking this high. As of December 23rd, today it is the number one lawn care business in their area. The only one that's behind is Lawn Starter, which is not an actual business. And you'll see in the video that I promised that within six months, we'd be the number one ranked, which would mean above any other bidding service like Lawn Starter or HomeAdvisor and all the rest of it. So let's go ahead and play the video and then I'll show you the results can improve on design and, and we can beat out this website. Right? And I'm very confident. So if I scroll down, there's grounds guys, thumbtack, Starkscapes, lawn crack, some other companies, and this right here is Spencer Lawn care's old website. And our goal with the new website is to outrank this one because it has like old pictures. Yeah, it's not even configured. What in the world.

Mercy. I haven't seen that. Must be recent. Oh, they must have disconnected. Anyways, that's great. I'm super happy that that's no longer there because they have the new website. I'm super thrilled. And our goal is to beat it out. So that way they can actually make changes, improvements as they add services, they're able to improve it. So I'm going to kind of put myself on a bit of a spot here and make a bit of a bet. Okay. So the bet is this. The bet is if. If we at lawn care web design cannot make their site rank the number one out of any other website. So basically beat out Zutali Lawn Care. If we cannot beat them in the next three months and be any other other actual lawn care business in the next three months, I'm gonna donate $5,000 to the charity of Sean and TQ's choice. I haven't told them about this anyways. They're probably not even on here. But I will talk to them. $5,000 I'm going to donate to the charity of their Choice if in three months. So that's going to be October, November, December 24, the day before Christmas. If we have not beat out and are not number one ranked lawn care company in this lawn Care Canton, Ohio area, I will donate $5,000 to the charity of their choice. And furthermore, if we are not number one overall in six months, I'll donate $1,000 to the charity of their choice. I'm very confident in the next three months will be right in here. And then I'm confident next six months we'll get above the top other like Home advisor and we will rank number one overall for Lawn Care Canton, Ohio. That's my confidence in kind of what we do in the back. And a lot of people say, oh well I can't, you know, I can't do lawn care web design and get an SEO firm. You don't. We work a lot on SEO. We drove very deep in terms of keywords, your competition where we can exploit these things. And so I'm very confident in that. I'm looking forward to that. So you can hold me accountable to that. December 24th of this year.

So there you have it. That was September 23rd. I made the claim that we would make that website rank the number one local business in their area. And it did. The only one that was behind is lawnstarter, which is like a bidding service. You go on there and you ask for contractor, et cetera. So we, we are the number one ranked only behind Lawnstarter, and we will absolutely beat them within the next six months. I still have $1,000 on the line for that. But today's video is really just in my mind. When I make a product like lawn carewebdesign.com I do not make a product. I'm like, oh, I can make money on this because of my following with lawn care and landscapers. That's not the reason why. We also have1for homeservicewebdesign.com for, for everyone that's not lawn care and landscaping related. The reason is cause if I'm gonna sell something, it has to be that I have a unique advantage over anybody else when it comes to that product. So whether it be lawn carebookkeeper.com, whether it be landscapebusinesscourse.com, whether it be lawncarewebdesign.com I truly believe that those products are going to be better than anything else you can get. And that's why I sell them. That's why I believe in them. That's why I have no problem telling someone that they should get those products and services. And that's why I had the confidence three months ago to bet $5,000 that that they would rank where they are today. We know SEO very well when it comes to home services. We know how it works with Google. We stay on the cutting edge of what they're making changes for in the coming year, as well as what the changes are they're making now in terms of how do they rank things based on speed, based upon the type of graphics and design that you have. So this is something we're really good at. And, you know, I'm just trying to make a point. We're really good. Three months ago, I put kind of lawn care web design's neck out on the line and a day we pulled through. So if you'd be interested in us building your lawn care, your landscaping website, check out lawncarewebdesign.com See how we can help you with your business. 3 months is very solid. We've had some sites rank in as little as two weeks and others will take six or more months. So the fact that we got this one in three months is tough. It's not easy. And they obviously did make sure they get some Google reviews and things like that. And when we actually build someone's website, we actually give them a coaching video about getting Google reviews and how to do that, and we walk through Google, my business, et cetera, because it is very important. There's a lot of other factors outside of just our design ability, just our SEO, but I promise you, it's great. It's a great service. There is no upfront fee. You can cancel anytime. We've had, I think three people or four people cancel over the past couple years and it's because they've been moving or they sold the business or they joined Augusta Lawn Care, basically. And so people. Because when they join Augusta, you get a website already. So, yeah, that's kind of it. If you would like that service. Definitely. Check it out. 100% of the profits from that business go directly into making this channel better. Hiring our team, creating really awesome content like Zero Turn. And I'm really appreciative of everyone that has done that and been a happy customer for so many years. Thank you so much. We'll see you tomorrow.

It.
