Tell me you run your own business without telling me you run your own business 😅

Holidays a definitely different when you are self employed.

However over the last 8.5 years of running Grand Cru Digital I have pretty much got the pre-holiday prep sorted now.

Yes the hours over the last month have been a bit hectic, with a bit more after school care and longer daycare hours for the kids, but it’s going to be worth it.

To be able to log off on Friday knowing we’ve completed all our client work for the month and our clients are happy means that first Vietnamese b**r and pho 🍜 will taste so darn good 👌

To all my fellow business owners - we got this 💪

The holiday countdown is officially on ⏰

This time next week we’ll be on our way to rest & relaxation - well as much as you can with a 4 and 6 year old in tow 😅

Here’s a few things we are doing to ensure we don’t have to open our laptops and our clients are stress-free while we are away:

✅ Google Business Profile weekly posts scheduled

✅ Google Ads accounts all have a thorough health check and automated rules are set up where needed and campaign end dates in place

✅ Google Analytics custom alerts set up where needed

✅ Google Search Console checked for any lingering errors, so there are no indexing surprises while we’re offline

✅ Proactive client heads-up sent to all clients with our exact offline dates and clear expectations for when we’ll be back on deck - we have literally been doing this for the last 6 months 😅

This week is all about finishing off our monthly work before we trade our computers for cocktails.

What are your must-do tasks before logging off for a holiday stress-free??

When was the last time you Googled your own brand? 👀

We don’t just mean checking if your website pops up.

We mean clicking through the Images, Videos, Maps, Shopping, News tabs on both desktop and mobile to see exactly what potential customers experience when they look you up.

And don’t forget AI Mode 🤖

Your brand’s search result is your ultimate digital storefront. If a customer searches your exact business name, they should see a cohesive, trust-building story: a well-maintained Google Business Profile, high-quality team photos, recent social videos, and accurate location data.

If your search space is looking a little bare, or worse, a competitor is creeping into your territory 😬 here is how you start taking control:

Audit your Google Business Profile: Ensure your hours, services, and recent photos are completely up to date.

Optimise your visual assets: Search engines read file names. Rename generic image files to descriptive, brand-relevant terms before uploading them to your site.

Keep video content flowing: Google actively indexes Reels, TikToks, Facebook and YouTube videos right into the main search tabs.

Go give your business a quick search across a few different devices today and hopefully you like what you see!

I’m definitely going to work on getting Digital Dan out of of video tab first page results 🦹‍♀️

Happy Father’s Day (for yesterday!) to the GCD Dad! You literally rock our world 🪨

If you didn’t realise, Morgan joined me running GCD in 2020, about 2.5 years after I started the business.

Yep married ✔️ just had our first baby ✔️ and were deep in Covid 😷

But we made it through!

We’re still married (and about to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary in Vietnam in 14 sleeps!!!), we had a second baby and for a labourer / boat builder, he’s rocking the desk life.

Thanks to our littlest intern who created this fantastic prezzie for her daddy 🙌

Here’s to rocking your SEO and Google Ads this month!

Thank you Meg Coffey for giving me the perfect “work expense” excuse to visit Perth every year!

And for always pushing me out of my comfort zone - especially this year 🫠

There were so many epic highlights from SOS26 and my whirlwind three nights in Perth.

And yes I did run this through AI before posting…

Gemini is totally right, this post “oscillates wildly between an internal group chat, a business testimonial, and a personal diary entry” but hey I’m not changing it 🤪

For this classic “most shy-talkative, awkward-outgoing, social-antisocial Aquarius” who doesn’t want to be the center of attention yet also wears a jacket of pink sequins and a multi coloured skirt to a conference of 900 people - it was the human connections that really made this trip 🫶

Oh and the bubble bath & room service on night two with no mum duties was pure bliss. Morgan (he/him - Tiffany Lake 😂) I couldn’t do business and mum life without you 🩷

My social cup is truly full with a special thanks to these amazing people…

Meg - you are epic. A true inspiration which I feel so privileged to have called you a client since 2018 and the most wildly crazy friend (in a good way!).

JodeeAtJITG & Justin Wearne - food and w**e brought us together all those years ago and it was great to indulge again with you! I am so honoured you have trusted me with your SEO & Google Ads for all these years. You are truly part of our GCD family.

Tiff & Rikki - always amazing to catch up and enjoy learning, w**e and laughs. Oh and the puppies 🐶

Jes Scholz - a literal highlight to meet such an SEO rockstar. I loved hearing you speak and getting to know you. Bringing social and SEO together like that was perfection for SOS - Meg you truly pick the best speakers.

And while I didn’t necessarily speak directly with them; I loved the words and vibes from Julian Pace - The Happiness Guy , Tim Duggan , Rob Campbell, Christina Garnett | trust & customer-brand relationships and Tess Palmyre. If you ever get a chance to catch them speak - listen generously 😉

And to everyone else who I chatted, w**ed and stood awkwardly beside - thank you!

PS: One last shoutout 😅 To my amazing friends Nicola Jane Heyes & Ralph for braving the Perth weather last night for a vino 🥂

All packed and ready for a whirlwind 3 nights in Perth for State of Social | Marketing Conference 2026 🙌

This will be my fifth time attending in person this amazing event and I have no doubt I’ll be exploding with ideas on how to further help the GCD clients when I get home 🥳

The kids (4 and 6 year olds) helped me pack so it’s safe to say I’ll be bright 🌈✨

If you’re heading along too, make sure to say hi 👋 I’ll be there as soon as doors open both days and will naturally stay around for a vino or two after as well 😜

I’ll also be sharing all my learnings and insights in this months email newsletter which will hit inboxes this coming Friday or Monday - so if you’re not subscribed you can do so via the link in my bio or pop me a DM with your email address 🥂

See you soon Perth ✌️

I have literally read the blog post, watched the video and listened via podcast to this advice from Google this morning - How to get your product data holiday ready on Google Merchant Center shopping🛒

If you’re an ecommerce brand then I highly recommend checking it out (drop a comment below if you need the direct link) as its 30 mins of super useful information to help boost sales over the coming months.

If you don’t handle your product feed and Google Merchant Center account, then forward it onto that person.

GCD clients 👉 Obviously I got you covered 😉

Here are just some of my top takeaways:

🥡 Upload high-quality product images that are 1500 x 1500 or a minimum of 500 x 500

🥡 Add additional images and videos to show closeups of texture, stitching, etc

🥡 Make product descriptions deeper and richer

🥡 Add more than the specifications of a product - look into new attributes you can add into your product feed like Q&As and related products

🥡 Make sure user/product ratings are on your product pages and are connected to your feed

🥡 If you have a physical store, make sure local inventory is set up

🥡 Add promotions, including any sign up / first order offers

🥡 Nail the basics - e.g. ensure GTINs are added and are accurate

And lastly, I love this quote:

“Pro tip: Making sure every product acts as an entry door to discover your brand requires keeping your foundational SEO in place. If you’re adding additional rich content information, make sure those landing pages are annotated correctly so Google can crawl and validate them.”

Now go read/listen or watch if you sell products online ‼️
