Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back to the Start Thinking Forward Show. I'm your host,
Brandon L. Draper, and today we're diving deep into a
topic that every service based business needs to hear. I'm
not talking about the same old marketing advice or some
quick fixed gimmick. Today, we're going beyond the surface. We're
talking about what it really takes to not just survive,

(00:23):
but to thrive in today's digital battlefield. And trust me,
I know a thing or two about the battlefield. After all,
I've fought on the front lines in Afghanistan. I've seen
what it means to be battle tested. And now I'm
bringing that same mindset, that same resilience to help you
win in the online world. Today, I want to introduce

(00:44):
you to cerebro Ai, and if you haven't heard of
us yet, get ready because we're not just another tech
company pushing out cookie cutter solutions. We're your partner, your guide,
your ally in navigating the challenges of building holding a
successful service based business in a world where everything happens online.

(01:06):
You can check us out at sarahbro dot ai and
you'll see right off the bat we're not here to
just sell a service. We're here to help you build
something real, something lasting. We're here to fight alongside you.
Let me paint a picture for you. Imagine your business
is like a soldier heading into the field. You've got
the skills, the experience, and the heart, but you're entering

(01:28):
hostile territory, competition around every corner, algorithms changing constantly, customer
expectations rising by the day. Without the right support, without
the right gear, you're just hoping to make it back
in one piece. But what if instead you had a
team in your corner who's trained for this, A team

(01:49):
that doesn't just give you tools, but shows you how
to use them effectively, strategically, like a general planning out
every move. That's what cerebro Ai is all about. Let
me ask you something, how often do you feel like
you're chasing after digital trends, pouring money into ads that

(02:10):
don't work, putting in hours trying to figure out SEO
social media reviews, and wondering is all this even worth it?
You're not alone. You are not alone. Every service based
business out there has felt that pressure. But here's the thing.
Without a clear strategy, without guidance, without the right tools,

(02:31):
you're swinging in the dark. And that's exactly why we
develop cerebra Ai not to add more chaos, but to
bring clarity, focus, and most importantly results. Now, I know
that every company out there is promising results, but I
want to be real with you. Results don't come from
just dumping money into marketing and hoping it works. Results

(02:54):
come from knowing exactly where to aim, where to put
your energy, and understanding what it takes to build trust
with your audience. And that's what sets us apart. See
at cerebro Ai, we're not here to slap a solution
on you and walk away. We care about the outcome.
We care about your business the way you do. We

(03:16):
know what it means to fight hard and to make sacrifices.
When I was out on those battlefields, it wasn't just
about me, it was about the people I was fighting for,
the mission we had, the purpose driving us forward, and
that's how I approach this work too. My mission now
is to fight for you, for your business to succeed,

(03:37):
to not only survive, but to be a force to
be reckoned with in your industry. When you bring cerebro
Ai on board, you're not just getting another vendor, You're
gaining a partner who's as invested in your success as
you are. Imagine having a team that helps you navigate
the digital landscape with precision, giving you tools to grow

(03:59):
your online press and manage your reputation and most importantly,
connect with your customers in a way that makes them
feel something. And speaking of connection, here's where things get personal,
because I know that business isn't just about making money.
It's about the relationships, the trust, the commitment to serve

(04:19):
your customers with excellence. You're in this business because you
believe in what you do and you want to make
a difference, and we get that. We're here to elevate
that vision, to take your commitment and amplify it, giving
you the digital muscle to reach more people, to build
that trust on a grander scale, and to be to
go to in your field. Now let's talk specifics because

(04:42):
I want you to know what we're bringing to the table.
Cerebro Ai offers a suite of tools that go beyond
the basics. Sure we handle websites, SEO, email, marketing and
the usual suspects, but we do it in a way
that's custom fitted for service based businesses. Focuses on long

you're getting a team that's with you every step of
the way, training you, guiding you, and ensuring that you're
equipped to handle whatever the digital battlefield throws your way.
I want to take a moment to talk about reputation,
because in today's world, it's everything. Your reputation can make

(05:50):
or break you, and that's not something I take lightly.
We've built tools specifically designed to manage and protect your reputation,
to ensure that when customers look you up, they see quality, integrity,
and trust. Think about that for a second. How much
peace of mind would it give you to know that
when people find you online, they're seeing the best version

(06:13):
of your business every time. That's what we're here to
help you achieve. But beyond all the technical tools and strategies.
There's something deeper driving us. It's a commitment to the
small businesses that are the heartbeat of our communities. The
world might not always notice the plumbers, the roofers, the
wellness coaches, the fitness trainers, but I do. I see

(06:36):
the value in what you bring to the table. You're
not just running a business. You're serving people, solving real problems,
making a difference, and that deserves to be recognized, to
be elevated, to be celebrated. So let me ask you this.
Are you ready to start thinking forward? Are you ready
to stop feeling overwhelmed, to stop throwing money at random tactics,

(06:59):
