ABOUT THIS EPISODE
GROWTH PILLAR: Marketing & Branding
WHO THIS IS FOR: SMB owners / Solopreneurs / Corporate escapees / Leaders building systems
WHAT THEY'LL GAIN: A clear way to check if their website is actually trustworthy, why accessibility and data privacy matter more than they think, and how to turn reviews into real growth.
Most businesses aren't losing customers because they're bad at what they do. They're losing them because they're invisible online.
Trevor Gibbs runs The Web Detective, a firm that helps businesses build a trustworthy, findable online presence. In this episode, he explains the difference between a digital thumbprint and a digital footprint, why showing up on more platforms beats shouting louder on one, and why testimonials don't carry the same weight as reviews. He also covers website accessibility — and the quarter of the population most businesses accidentally shut out — plus the basics of data privacy compliance and where AI helps or hurts.
