The Problem

Your med-spa is losing patients to clinics that rank above you

Patients search for treatments, not clinic names. If you're not in the first few results, they book somewhere else. It's usually four things, stacked:

A weak Google Business Profile

Wrong primary category, blank attributes, and fewer than 10 photos. Half of US med-spa profiles are in this state.

Treatment pages that don't rank

One "Services" page listing everything, instead of a real page for "Botox [city]", "lip filler [city]", and the rest.

Not enough recent reviews

A competitor adding 20 reviews this quarter outranks a clinic with 300 from three years ago. Recency counts.

Competitors sitting above you

Three or four clinics with stronger local signals take the Map Pack spots, and the calls that come with them.

What I Do

Local SEO that moves the needle

Med-spas compete on treatment-level searches: Botox, lip filler, microneedling, RF microneedling, chemical peels, laser treatments, and "medical spa" — each paired with a city. Here is what I optimize to get you showing up for them.

Google Business Profile

Your GBP is the fastest path to the Map Pack. I optimize it for the "Medical Spa" primary category, treatment keyword queries, and the photo strategy that signals trust to Google and patients alike.

Citations & Local Authority

Consistent NAP data across general and aesthetic-specific directories — RealSelf, Healthgrades, Zocdoc, and 50+ others — plus the local links that tell Google your med-spa is legitimate and move "near me" rankings.

A detailed look at exactly why you're not ranking — technical gaps, missing schema, weak content — with a prioritized fix list and timelines.

Treatment & Service Page SEO

One page per treatment, per city — "Botox [city]", "lip filler near me", "microneedling [city]", "RF microneedling [city]", "chemical peel [city]" — built to rank for the searches your patients type into Google.

Review Strategy

Reviews feed prominence, one of Google's three ranking signals. I set up a post-treatment request system that builds Google review volume and recency, with response templates for both sides.

Local Content

Supporting articles that answer the questions patients actually search — before-and-after expectations, downtime, cost — and build topical authority around your treatments and your area.

Why This Matters

Local search decides who gets the booking

Google ranks local businesses on three things: relevance, distance, and prominence. Reviews and links feed prominence. Most med-spas leave all three underbuilt — which is the opening.

45%

of consumers say Google is their first choice for local searches, and another 15% start on Google Maps.

Illustrated portrait of Donna Lou, the inspiration behind Donna Lou Marketing

The Donna Lou behind Donna Lou Marketing — med-spa local SEO with a personal touch.

Local SEO shouldn't require a marketing degree to understand.

I named this company after my mother, Donna Lou — who believed every problem has a solution if you're willing to sit with it long enough to find one. That's how I approach every client's ranking problem.

Med-spa owners are especially targeted by agencies selling generic SEO packages that don't understand treatment-level keyword searches. If that sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

How I Work

What you get, starting with client number one

Full audit
every GBP field, citation, and review signal Google actually weights, not a generic checklist
Weekly reporting
calls, website visits, direction requests, and leads — not rankings alone, which Google says no one can guarantee
Direct access
you work with me, not an account manager who's never seen your profile

Founding Clients

I'm building a local SEO practice specifically for med-spas.

I'm taking on three founding clients at a reduced rate, in exchange for permission to document the campaign and the results as a case study. That is the deal on the table — a lower rate for a med-spa that's willing to be the proof.

It is not a discount because I'm new. It is a trade: you get founding-client pricing and direct access to me, I get a documented result in the niche I'm committing to.

The Free Audit

What a med-spa audit from me actually says

Not a 47-page PDF. Four short sections, specific to your clinic and your city.

Problem

You're not showing up prominently for "Botox [your city]" and the other treatments you want to book.

Evidence

Three competitors have stronger local relevance signals and far more review authority. Here are their numbers next to yours.

Opportunity

Botox, lip filler, and microneedling are three services where your site could be far better aligned with local search intent.

Recommendation

Rebuild the service and location pages, fix the GBP, strengthen review acquisition, build local authority. That's what I'd fix first.
