Treat each tool as a "team member" with one job, and have a person approve anything public.

## The roles

- **Local SEO lead:** keep [Google Business Profile](https://www.google.com/business/) complete, with weekly photo posts ([help](https://support.google.com/business/)). Use [Semrush](https://www.semrush.com) for keywords and [Surfer](https://surferseo.com) to write service-area pages ("concrete driveway cost in San Diego").
- **Content writer:** [Jasper](https://www.jasper.ai) or a general assistant turns job photos and notes into project case studies.
- **Social manager:** [Canva](https://www.canva.com) for before/after graphics and [Buffer](https://buffer.com) to schedule 3 posts a week.
- **Email marketer:** [Mailchimp](https://mailchimp.com) for a quarterly past-client newsletter and maintenance reminders ([help](https://mailchimp.com/help/)).
- **Reviews manager:** [NiceJob](https://get.nicejob.com), [Birdeye](https://birdeye.com) or [Podium](https://www.podium.com) auto-request reviews at job closeout and draft replies.
- **Ads and tracking:** [Google Ads](https://ads.google.com/home/) (including Local Services Ads) plus [CallRail](https://www.callrail.com) to tie calls to campaigns.

## The agent glue

An [n8n](https://n8n.io) workflow ([AI docs](https://docs.n8n.io/advanced-ai/)) does this: when a job closes in your CRM, it pulls photos, drafts a case study and social post, queues a review request and adds a newsletter item. A person approves everything, then it publishes.

## Weekly rhythm

Monday: review leads by source. Wednesday: one SEO page. Friday: approve the next week of posts. Monthly: reply to every review and trim ad spend that is not producing calls.
