Meet the Severely Underrated Strategy to Get to the Top of Google
For most local business owners, it’s a struggle to get near the top of Google’s search results. SEO costs too much. Blogging takes forever. Ads are unpredictable. But this strategy just works.

Hey it’s Steve, the founder of Starboost.
I’ve got some bad news—digital marketing is broken.
It’s never stayed still, but now it’s moving faster than ever. And local businesses – like yours – are being left behind.
Maybe you can’t afford enough ad spend to take on the “big dogs” in your space. Maybe you tried blogging and making videos… but it feels like an endless cycle of production. You didn’t get into business to become a media company, but now they say that you MUST.
And what about the AI doomsayers? Google bowed the knee and now your results are buried beneath overpriced ads and AI summaries.
This sucks. But there’s a way out of this mess: Reviews.
Since 93% of consumers check reviews (so, everybody) before making a purchase, now more than ever you need to ask for them.
But let’s be honest, this takes a lot of work and effort. If you rely on salespeople or technicians to ask, your results will not be consistent. And follow-up? Who’s got the time?
Time for the good news. We handle all of this for you—and more—with our turn-key solution.
Starboost can unlock this hidden marketing reservoir in your business.
Our job is to help you turn one customer into two, five, ten, or even more. The best part? You can dramatically ramp down your ad spend and replace it with this much simpler, less stressful (and yes—way more economical) strategy.
With Starboost, you:
- Build trust with new customers
- Build relationship with current customers
- Build authority with Google
- Build your reputation in your community
- Build your business’s bottom line.
Let us show you the impact review and reputation management can have by scheduling a free reputation audit today.

Case Study: Heritage Building Company
Heritage Building Company engaged our services when they had 49 public reviews. Their average star rating was 4.2 and reviews came in sporadically.
Customers care about four things:
- Recency: How long ago was the most recent review?
- Frequency: How often do reviews get left for the company?
- Star Rating: How does the overall customer experience rate?
- Review Numbers: How many reviews does this service have overall?
Simply put: If you get more reviews, more often, at a higher rating than your competitor, you win the call/visit.
Heritage saw a dramatic increase in each area, with 405 reviews and counting at a 4.8 star rating, in just two years!

“Watching these new reviews come in every day has been AMAZING!”
— Merritt Eaton, then-CEO @ Heritage Building Company
