You didn’t start your business to become a full-time marketer. You started it because you are an incredible lawyer, a skilled contractor, or a visionary service provider. Yet, here you are, staring at a screen, wondering why your competitor—who is frankly half as talented as you—is ranking #1 on Google while you are stuck on page three.
It is infuriating.
Here is a hard statistic to swallow: 47% of small business owners handle marketing entirely on their own, and most of them burn out or waste their budget within the first year.
I’m Linda Donnelly. For over a decade, I have run Business Solutions Marketing Group (BSMG), and I have seen the same tragedy play out a thousand times. With a proven track record of delivering results for clients across various industries, BSMG stands out for its reliability and expertise. Our track record includes helping businesses achieve measurable growth and success through tailored video marketing strategies. A business owner signs up with a massive, “big box” marketing agency that promises the moon. Six months later, they are just a ticket number in a support queue, paying thousands of dollars for a generic strategy that hasn’t generated a single qualified lead.
The marketing landscape of 2026 is brutal. It is driven by AI, hyper-local proximity rules, and video dominance. You cannot afford to be a small fish in a big agency’s pond.
You need a partner, not a vendor.
Today, I want to explain why BSMG is the specific solution for businesses that are tired of guessing and ready to grow, and why our Gold Program is the standard for success going into 2026.

The Problem with “Big Box” Marketing
We have all seen the ads for those massive marketing technology companies. They dazzle you with proprietary software and fancy dashboards. But here is the dirty little secret they don’t tell you: Software doesn’t sell services. Strategy does.
When you sign on with a giant agency, you often get a “set it and forget it” campaign. They turn on the ads, build a template website, and walk away. Unlike these big box agencies that rely on generic solutions, BSMG brings digital marketing expertise and technical expertise to every project, ensuring your video marketing is both strategically driven and technically optimized for each platform.
But Google changes its algorithm thousands of times a year. If your marketing team isn’t agile enough to pivot when Google updates its “Helpful Content” system or changes how Map Pack rankings work, you are dead in the water.
At Business Solutions Marketing Group, we don’t believe in templates. We believe in custom engineering.
Why We Are Different: The “Solutions” Approach
We named our company “Business Solutions” for a reason. We aren’t just selling “SEO” or “Social Media.” We are solving the problem of obscurity.
In 2026, obscurity is the enemy.
If customers can’t find you on Google, don’t see you on Instagram, and can’t watch a video of you on YouTube, you don’t exist to them. Our approach is holistic. We don’t silo your marketing; we integrate it. Our expertise in social media marketing and content creation ensures your brand is visible and engaging across all platforms, using strategic, data-driven methods tailored to each channel.
Here is why our clients stay with us for years, not just months:
1. We Prioritize “Search Everywhere”
Most agencies are still obsessed with just Google Search. While Google is king, 53% of website traffic comes from organic search, but the start of the buyer’s journey is changing.
People search on TikTok. They search on Instagram Maps. They search on YouTube.
Our Gold Program covers all of this. We don’t just optimize your website; we optimize your brand footprint across the entire internet. We ensure you are discoverable whether a user is typing on a keyboard or speaking into their phone. To maximize your reach, we help you stay active on multiple social platforms and strategically post video content tailored to each channel.
2. We Build Trust, Not Just Traffic
Traffic is a vanity metric. Revenue is a sanity metric.
You can have 10,000 visitors, but if they don’t trust you, they won’t call you. According to Edelman’s Trust Barometer, 81% of consumers must trust the brand to do what is right before they will buy.
How do we build trust? Through authentic content and video.
Our strategies involve putting you front and center. We help you create content that showcases your expertise—real “war stories” from your business, not AI-generated fluff. Producing compelling content and maintaining quality in every video are essential to building trust with potential clients. When a potential client sees a video of you explaining a complex problem, trust is built instantly. Big agencies rarely offer this level of personalized content direction because it doesn’t scale for them.
It scales for us because we care about your specific success.
3. We Are Obsessed with Local Proximity
In 2026, “Local SEO” has shifted to “Hyper-Local SEO.”
Google wants to show users the closest, most relevant result. A generic “City-Wide” strategy doesn’t cut it anymore. We build hyper-local landing pages and optimize your Google Business Profile to target specific neighborhoods and service areas.
We fight for every inch of map territory so that when someone in your area needs help, you are the only logical choice.
The Gold Program: Your 2026 Growth Engine
I am incredibly proud of the marketing packages we have developed, but our Gold Program is truly the crown jewel for businesses ready to scale aggressively.
We designed this package to be the “Anti-Agency” solution. It is everything you need, done for you, with total transparency. The Gold Program includes expertly crafted marketing videos and advanced video optimization to maximize your visibility and engagement across social media and search platforms. You can view the full details here: https://businesssolutionsmarketinggroup.com/marketing-packages/
Here is what makes the Gold Program the ultimate growth vehicle:
Comprehensive SEO and YouTube SEO Services (The Long Game)
We don’t just target keywords; we target intent. We handle the on-page technical optimization (making your site fast and readable), the off-page authority building (getting quality links), and the local map optimization. We also focus on optimizing your video content to improve your visibility in search results, both on YouTube and Google. YouTube SEO is the process of optimizing your channel, playlists, metadata, video description, and videos to rank higher in YouTube’s search results. Integrating YouTube SEO into your overall strategy ensures your videos reach a wider audience and drive more engagement. We ensure your site isn’t just a brochure, but a 24/7 salesperson.
Aggressive Social Media Marketing and Management (The Trust Builder)
We don’t just post “Happy Holidays” graphics. We execute a strategy. We post across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Google Business Profile. We keep your feed alive with engaging content that signals to both algorithms and humans that you are open for business and at the top of your game. Our approach prioritizes audience engagement, ensuring your social media videos resonate with viewers and drive interaction. We also track engagement metrics such as likes, shares, comments, and view completion to continually optimize your video marketing performance.
Content and Video Marketing That Actually Ranks
As I mentioned, generic content is dead. Our team specializes in content creation, producing high-quality, relevant content—including the ability to create videos that rank—that answers the specific questions your customers are asking. This is crucial for capturing “Zero-Click” searches where AI provides the answer. We also plan and optimize future videos as part of a long-term content strategy to ensure your business continues to be the source of those answers.
Reputation Management
One bad review can cost you thousands. Our program includes monitoring your reputation to ensure your hard-earned 5-star rating stays that way. We help you get more reviews and manage the ones you have.
The Power of Video Marketing in 2026
In 2026, video marketing isn’t just a trend—it’s the backbone of any successful digital marketing strategy. With the explosion of social media and video-sharing platforms, your potential clients are consuming more video content than ever before. Whether it’s a quick explainer on YouTube or a heartfelt testimonial on your website, high quality videos are now the most effective way to boost brand visibility and connect with your audience.
But it’s not just about creating videos—it’s about making sure they get seen. That’s where YouTube SEO services come in. By optimizing your video content for search engines, you can ensure your videos appear at the top of search engine results pages, driving more traffic to your site and putting your brand in front of the right people. In a world where digital marketing is more competitive than ever, leveraging video marketing and YouTube SEO is the key to standing out, building trust, and turning viewers into loyal clients.
Actionable Insights and Data-Driven Decisions
Creating compelling video content is only half the battle—the real magic happens when you use data to guide your strategy. By tracking engagement metrics like watch time, click through rates, and conversion rates, you gain valuable insights into what your audience actually wants to see. Performance data can reveal which short form videos are capturing attention and which video titles are driving clicks from search engine results pages.
Keyword research is another essential tool. By identifying relevant keywords and weaving them into your video titles, descriptions, and tags, you make it easier for your videos to be discovered by people searching for exactly what you offer. This data-driven approach ensures every video you produce is optimized for maximum impact, helping you refine your video strategy and consistently improve your results.
Staying Ahead of the Competition
The digital landscape is always evolving, and staying ahead means embracing the latest social media trends and video styles. Platforms like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts are changing how audiences consume content, making it crucial to create engaging video content tailored to different audiences across multiple platforms. By keeping your finger on the pulse of what’s trending, you can craft videos that resonate with your target audience and boost engagement.
Working with YouTube SEO experts can further amplify your online visibility, ensuring your videos are optimized for both search engines and social feeds. This not only helps you reach a broader audience but also builds meaningful connections with viewers who are looking for exactly what you provide. In a crowded market, a strong focus on video marketing and social media can set you apart as a thought leader and trusted resource.
Measuring Success and Progress
To truly understand the impact of your video marketing efforts, you need to measure what matters. Tracking engagement metrics, conversion rates, and ROI gives you a clear picture of how your video content is performing. If you notice that certain videos lead to more inquiries or sales, you can double down on those formats—whether it’s product demos, how-tos, or client testimonials.
Competitor analysis is another powerful tool. By studying what others in your industry are doing—and where they’re falling short—you can identify opportunities to create video content that fills gaps in the market. This data-driven, results-focused approach ensures your video strategy isn’t just keeping up, but setting the pace for long term success. With the right tools and insights, you can continually refine your approach, drive better engagement, and achieve more traffic and conversions year after year.

When you work with BSMG, you get our decade-plus of experience applied directly to your problems. We look at your P&L. We look at your intake process. We look at your sales script.

We have experience working with clients in various industries and leverage email marketing to build strong, ongoing client relationships. We want to understand the heartbeat of your business.

Our Gold Program buys you back your time.
- No more late nights trying to write blog posts.
- No more confusion over Google Analytics reports.
- No more wasting money on ads that go nowhere.
We handle the heavy lifting—including expert video SEO and YouTube search engine optimization as part of our done-for-you services—so you can focus on business growth.

FAQ: Common Questions About Our Services
1. How long does it take to see results with the Gold Program? SEO is a marathon, not a sprint. Typically, you will see significant movement in rankings and traffic within 3 to 6 months. However, our social media and reputation strategies often produce engagement boosts much faster, sometimes in the first 30 days.
2. Do I really need to be on social media if I run a “boring” business? Yes! Even if you sell concrete or insurance, your customers are on social media. It serves as “social proof.” If a customer checks your Facebook and the last post was from 2019, they might assume you are out of business.
3. What makes you different from agencies like Scorpion or Hibu? We don’t own your assets; you do. Many big agencies build websites on proprietary platforms that you lose if you cancel. With BSMG, we build on standard platforms (like WordPress) so you always own your digital footprint. Plus, you can actually get me on the phone!
4. Is the Gold Program suitable for a brand new business? Absolutely. In fact, it is often better to start with a strong foundation than to try to fix a messy DIY strategy later. The Gold Program provides the “instant infrastructure” a new business needs to look established immediately.
5. How do you help with YouTube channel and video marketing? We offer small business video marketing services that include optimizing your YouTube channel and individual YouTube videos. Optimizing a video for YouTube involves researching and using relevant video keywords, creating engaging titles and descriptions, adding captions and annotations, and optimizing video thumbnail images. When you optimize your YouTube channel, you increase the chances of attracting more views, subscribers, and overall search success.
6. How do we communicate? We believe in over-communication. You will receive monthly reports that are actually readable (not just data dumps), and we have regular check-ins to discuss strategy, new offers, and business changes.
Your business deserves more than a cookie-cutter template. It deserves a custom solution built by people who care.
If you are ready to stop struggling with marketing and start dominating your market, check out our Gold Program today. Let’s make 2026 your best year yet.
