Co-Founder, Zeal Media Solutions

Carl co-founded Zeal Media Solutions in Washington State in 2023 to give home improvement contractors a marketing partner that measures success the way they do — in booked estimates and signed jobs, not clicks. He runs the SEO and local search side of the agency and writes the playbooks below from what's actually working across Zeal's contractor accounts: Google Business Profile strategy, map-pack rankings, and the content that gets contractors cited in AI answers.
