• #46 - Roofing SEO Is Dead? Do THIS in 2025 (w/ Michael Stearns)
    2025/09/05

    🔥 “Roofing SEO is dead?” Not if you do THIS. Raise your floor with brand, AI that actually indexes, irresistible offers, and a **one-best** financing pitch that closes.

    🎙️ Guest: Michael Stearns (Ascend Digital Agency) — Inc. 500 #474, 865% growth

    🚀 What you’ll learn: brand-first system that wins when storms don’t; 2025 SEO reality (authority, entities, internal links, indexing); AI content that actually ranks (human edit loop, uniqueness, crawlability); financing that closes (present one best SKU + sell the payment, not the sticker); repairs → replacements (maintenance plans + repair credit); sales energy, speed-to-lead SLAs, and CRM adoption that sticks; when a $25k site beats a $5k site for conversion.
