Get yo s**t together!

Today’s Marketing Monday at Handlebar HQ looks like this:

Cleaning up social profiles.
Clicking every link on every website.
Updating bios across every channel.
Making sure everything matches everywhere.

It’s boring. It’s necessary. And it’s hard to stay consistent—especially around the holidays and family life.

So we block a few hours every other Monday and hold ourselves accountable. We call it Marketing Monday.

What do you do for your business, band, or side hustle?

Doesn’t have to be Mondays. Could be one Sunday a month. Just has to happen.

…what are you actually setting aside time for?

Gotta dedicate time to working ON your business on a regular basis.

From our crew to yours, wishing you a Thanksgiving filled with full plates, full hearts, and just the right amount of gobble gobble.

Grateful for every business owner who lets us help tune up their marketing engine and keep the wheels rolling all year long.

Enjoy the ride, enjoy the feast, and enjoy the people around your table today.

Happy Thanksgiving from Handlebar Marketing!

If you’ve ever wondered what a Marketing Monday looks like when the tires really hit the road… today was it.

We spent a big chunk of the morning putting the final welds and polish on a brand-new sub-website for our friends over at Bright Sky Aesthetics — and this one has a very specific mission:

👉 Make it unmistakably clear that Wendell does have a competent, local solution for professional tattoo removal.

The new site is officially live at:
CarolinaTattooRemoval.net
and
WendellTattooRemoval.com

Here’s the playbook move for all you small-business owners trying to keep your marketing engines from sputtering:

When people want a tattoo removed in Wendell, they aren’t typing “Bright Sky Aesthetics.”
They’re typing “tattoo removal in Wendell” or “where can I get a tattoo removed near me?”

So what do smart businesses do?
They build additional, hyper-local websites loaded with the exact search terms people are using.
It’s not trickery—it’s strategy.
Google rewards relevance, and few things are more relevant than having the search term right in your domain name.
That’s how you outrun your competitors before they even fire up their engines. 🏍️💨

Next step?
We’re getting ready to blast this new site across social media to build some early organic traffic before we throw real fuel on the fire with paid ads.

Handlebar Marketing: helping small businesses look bigger, run faster, and ride smoother—one smart move at a time.

So hard to actually implement stuff like this and be authentic, but for those who can, it pays dividends.

In our world, today isn’t just Monday—it’s Marketing Monday. That’s the day we put the kickstand down, stop spinning our wheels, and actually tune up the engine that runs the whole ride: your business.

So be real with us—what are you doing today?
👉 Working IN your business (answering calls, juggling tasks, stuck in the weeds)?
👉 Or working ON your business (systems, strategy, growth plans)?

If you don’t block off time to work on it, the bike never gets faster. 🚦

We’ll be at the Handlebar Marketing HQ in Wendell most of the day—swing by, grab a coffee, and let’s rev up your week together. 🏁

🏍️ No Marketing Monday today — we’re giving the throttle a rest for Labor Day.

Normally we ride on the 1st & 3rd Mondays, but this time we’re shifting gears: next week will be our first-ever 2nd Monday Marketing Monday.

Gotta get it done. 💪 Let us know if you’d like to join the ride.

Officially joined the Wendell Chamber of Commerce yesterday.

Today there’s a monthly “after hours” event so we whipped up some if these handy flyers to help introduce ourselves a little easier…

Looking forward to making some Connections!
