In this episode of Local Marketing Secrets, I’m joined by Bryan Eisenberg — two-time New York Times bestselling author, co-creator of the Persuasion Architecture Framework, and the guy who literally coined the term conversion rate optimization. We talk about the origin of CRO, how Bryan helped companies like Google, Dell, and Disney generate hundreds of millions in revenue, and how local businesses can apply the same frameworks to dominate their markets.

We dig into Bryan’s “Five Rs” of SEO and authority, how to build brandable language that spreads, what Amazon’s four core pillars can teach service businesses, and why clarity is the ultimate competitive edge. Plus, Bryan shares his personal transformation story of losing 100 pounds and what it taught him about changing beliefs, building momentum, and being remarkable in business and life.

If you’re a local business owner or marketer trying to stand out in an AI-saturated world, this is the episode you don’t want to miss.
