LSEO [Inspiration Thread] Exploring the Possibilities of Rank and Rent for Generating Income in 2022

[Bergires]

"I was hoping for a more detailed response, but I understand you might not want to give too much away! I’d like to get a GMB, but spending $300 on something I’m unfamiliar with feels a bit hasty. Since I’ve never done rank & rent or lead gen before, I’m concerned I might not use the GMB effectively."

"You don't need much information—just set up rank and rent from home, like I do. If you're in another country, it might be a different story, but I haven’t dealt with that.

"Yes, I focus exclusively on home services like plumbing, remodeling, and roofing. I'm also excited about exploring real estate opportunities (e.g., 'sell my home for cash') and custom home builders in the future. Targeting high-income areas could make custom home builders highly profitable. I plan to run some tests in remodeling in affluent areas, even if the population is small."

"I believe that keywords like 'sell your house for cash' are too challenging to rank for compared to the difficulty of monetizing them, at least in my opinion. However, focusing on remodeling is a better approach. Targeting small cities with 5-10 GMBs should set you up nicely. The real challenge is executing that plan, though—haha!"

Yes, you’d need to either use the leads yourself (for flipping homes or wholesaling) or have an agreement with an investor who offers a significant payout. Some investors pay $500-$1,000 for qualified leads that result in a purchase. However, it’s a competitive field with a lot of money involved, so it’s definitely not an easy niche.

Regarding the 5-10 GMBs per city, are you paying people to accept postcards and handle the verification?
