Episode notes

Meet the Nomadic Marketer Eric Dingler, a faith-driven entrepreneur who helps local businesses grow through clarity, simplicity, and strategy in today’s noisy digital world.

In this episode, we unpack what it means to succeed as a small business or local service provider in the age of AI, SEO, and digital transformation. If you've ever wondered how to attract more local clients, turn random tactics into consistent results, or make marketing actually work for you — this is your blueprint.

Eric’s insights directly address key pain points like:

Why your pay-per-click ads strategy isn’t converting
How a client avatar marketing approach leads to more qualified leads
What makes done-with-you marketing better than DIY or expensive retainers
Why Apple Business Connect and Google Business Profile SEO are essential for local SEO strategy
How to navigate the shift from SEO vs AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) to stay visible in AI-powered search
What true faith-driven entrepreneurship looks like in a location independent business model

Eric Dingler lives what he teaches — building a successful agency while traveling full-time with his family. As a digital nomad entrepreneur, his 4 Laws of Marketing help simplify the overwhelm:

Keep It Simple
Be Genuine
A Tactic Is Not a Strategy
Do Less with More
