Tree of Life International Childcare

Maria Cooper Owner/Founder

A Bright Future Through Digital Presence

Maria Cooper, the owner of Tree of Life International Childcare, LLC, has always been dedicated to providing outstanding childcare. However, she encountered a significant hurdle—her business was almost invisible online. Her Google Business Profile was new and not optimized, making it hard for local families to discover her services. With limited online visibility, she was missing valuable opportunities to connect with parents looking for quality childcare.

Determined to enhance her digital presence, Maria sought assistance from the North Metro SBDC, where she collaborated closely with Diego Leyes, Lead Advisor and Marketing Specialist. Diego, who regularly meets with business owners at Alianza, Alliance Center, a trusted partner of North Metro SBDC, offered Maria tailored advice on improving her online reach. Together, they concentrated on optimizing her Google Business Profile, ensuring it included the right keywords, engaging content, and accurate business information. Diego also guided Maria on the ongoing maintenance required to keep her profile performing optimally.

The results were swift. Within just a few weeks, Maria’s childcare business became much easier for families to find in local searches. As her profile climbed in Google rankings, more parents started visiting her page, interacting with her content, and reaching out to learn more about her services. This increased visibility led to a noticeable rise in inquiries, ultimately resulting in more potential enrollments and new families joining her childcare program.

Maria is delighted with the transformation and now feels confident in managing her online presence effectively. Her experience highlights how the right support and expertise can empower small businesses to flourish. At North Metro SBDC, we are dedicated to equipping entrepreneurs like Maria with the tools and strategies they need to succeed.
