Helping Local Businesses Turn Their Online Presence Into Real Customers
Most local businesses know they should be posting, updating their website, and trying to show up online…but it’s not always clear what’s actually working.
You might be getting some traffic.
You might be posting consistently.
But if it’s not turning into real customers, something is missing. That’s where strategy comes in.
Hi, I’m Grace — the founder of GK Marketing & SEO.
With a background in performance marketing, SEO, paid media, and content strategy, I help local businesses grow their online visibility and turn digital traffic into real customers. My experience spans both corporate and entrepreneurial marketing, including work across SEO, Google Ads, analytics, social media, and local search strategy.
Before launching my own business, I built my marketing experience working with nationally recognized brands and high-performing teams, where I learned how to combine creativity with data-driven strategy. Today, I bring that same level of strategic thinking to local businesses looking to grow sustainably online.
I specialize in helping service-based businesses — including salons, beauty brands, car washes, and local companies — improve their online presence through:
• Local SEO & Google Business Profile optimization
• Website strategy & SEO content
• Google & Meta Ads
• Social media strategy & content
• Conversion-focused marketing that supports real business growth
My approach is simple: marketing should not just look good — it should drive results. Whether that means increasing local visibility, improving Google rankings, generating leads, or building stronger brand trust online, I focus on strategies that help businesses grow in a way that feels authentic and sustainable.
Based in Georgia and inspired by both my corporate background and entrepreneurial journey, I’m passionate about helping businesses stand out in competitive local markets through smart, modern marketing.

What Makes GK Marketing Different?
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to marketing.
What works for a salon won’t work for a car wash.
What works for a florist won’t work for a service-based business.
Every strategy is tailored based on:
your business
your audience
and your goals
Because the focus isn’t just on posting content —it’s on creating content and strategies that actually drive inquiries, bookings, and growth.
Through a combination of:
SEO (to help you show up on Google)
Social media strategy (to increase visibility and engagement)
Content creation (to build trust and convert)
Everything is designed to work together to support one goal: bringing in more customers consistently
Since moving from New York to Georgia, I’ve been focused on helping local businesses in the Gwinnett County area grow their presence and attract more customers.
I’ve worked with businesses including:
hair salons
nail salons
lash studios
car washes
and other service-based brands
Marketing shouldn’t feel confusing or overwhelming.
With the right strategy in place, it becomes a tool that works for your business — not something you constantly have to figure out.
