If you’re wondering how to sell SEO services to local businesses, you’re not alone. In 2025, more small businesses than ever are trying to get noticed on Google. But with rising competition, showing up in search results is harder than it looks.
That’s where your opportunity lies. Whether you’re a freelancer, marketer, or agency owner, SEO services are in demand. And with the right approach, you can help businesses grow and build a strong income stream.
In this guide, we’ll break down exactly how to sell local SEO effectively—and how Wix Infotech can support you along the way.
Why Local Businesses Need SEO
Local SEO helps businesses appear in nearby search results like “dentist near me” or “best pizza in Boise.” Over 78% of location-based mobile searches result in an offline purchase (source: Google).
Yet, many local businesses either:
- Don’t have a Google Business Profile
- Aren’t optimized for keywords
- Have slow or outdated websites
This is where you come in.
Step 1: Understand the Business Needs
Before selling, always research:
- What industry are they in? (Dentists, plumbers, restaurants, etc.)
- Are they listed on Google?
- Do they have a website?
- Are they ranking for any local keywords?
Tools like Ubersuggest, Google Search, and GMBspy Chrome Extension can help you quickly audit their visibility.
Step 2: Educate, Don’t Just Pitch
Most business owners don’t know what “SEO” really means. Instead of using jargon, explain results:
We can help your business show up when people in your city search for [your service]. That means more calls, more website visits, and more customers.
Make it relatable and simple.
Step 3: Offer a Starter Package
Local businesses love fixed, affordable pricing. Offer them something low-risk, like:
- Google Business Profile setup & optimization
- Basic keyword research + content suggestions
- On-page SEO for their existing site
- Monthly analytics reporting
At Wix Infotech, our packages start at just $100-$150, making it easy to sell without scaring clients away.
Step 4: Use Case Studies or Proof
Show examples of results:
- Increased visibility within 30 days
- 2x leads after optimizing Google Business Profile
- 40% more traffic after website speed improvements

- A team of SEO and website experts
