Google Local Services Ads — those little boxes with star ratings and “Google Guaranteed” badges — show up at the very top of search results. But are they worth it for your luxury outdoor business?
In this episode, Katy breaks down the pros, cons, and real-world realities of LSAs. You’ll learn how they work, why they can be a powerful tool for attracting affluent homeowners, and where they fall short (especially if your brand depends on visual storytelling and a premium vibe).
Whether you're a high-end landscaper, pool builder, or outdoor lighting pro, this episode gives you the info you need to decide if LSAs deserve a spot in your marketing toolbox — and how to actually make them work if you decide to use them.
What you’ll learn:
- What LSAs are and how they’re different from regular Google Ads
- Why they work well (when they do) for high-end service providers
- The not-so-glamorous downsides no one talks about
- How to set up your LSAs for better lead quality and conversion
- Why LSAs are a tool — not your entire strategy
Tune in and find out if LSAs are your next best lead source… or just another marketing distraction.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
