Hi Kathleen, 

I took a look at how Kathy Can Do It Courier looks online to a potential customer searching for a courier service in your area.

You've done a good job setting up Citations for your business so your business name can be found in local searches. I would suggest doing the following to help gain more exposure to help attract new customers:

1) Create a Google My Business listing (this will help increase your search results & visibility);

2) Reach out to current & past customers, as well as business associates who know you and your business and ask for reviews (this will help you get reviews & star ratings online to help provide "social proof". 92% of consumers read reviews about a business to help decide if they'll contact that business);

3) Consider creating a YouTube channel and adding video content that you SEO tagged (this will help your videos show up in local search results. 96% of consumers say watching a video by or about a business helps them make a buying decision).

Hope this helps!
