About us
Local Business & Startup Growth Lab is a free online learning community for local business owners, startup founders, and practical marketers who want to strengthen their online visibility and make day-to-day marketing easier.
We meet live on Zoom each Tuesday for a focused workshop, live Q&A, and member discussion. Every event provides standalone learning value: a host-led lesson, practical examples, time to share a business challenge, and useful actions to test in your own business.
Topics rotate based on what members need most, including:
• Finding the keywords potential customers use when searching online
• Practical SEO and search visibility for a small-business website
• Clear, simple websites and lead-generation landing pages
• AI workflows that reduce repetitive marketing or operational work
• Peer ideas and lessons from other local business owners and startup founders
All experience levels are welcome. Our goal is to help members learn usable skills, make helpful connections, and leave with at least one practical action to try.
Marcus leads the sessions and has 26 years of digital- and affiliate-marketing experience, including more than seven figures in affiliate-marketing revenue. He shares educational strategies and facilitates discussion; no traffic, revenue, or business result is guaranteed.
This group is organized in connection with Elite Membership. Elite Membership may be mentioned as an optional continuation resource after some sessions, but no purchase or membership is required to join this group or attend its free events.
