Create a Yelp Profile

One of the easiest things you can do to promote your doula business is to create a profile on Yelp.

You just need to create it once and encourage some people to leave you reviews and that’s it! (It’s not like social media where you have to keep posting)

Now, when people Google “doula near me” your Yelp profile will show up even if you don’t have a website yet/your website doesn’t show up high in Google Searches.

See my post in the Facebook Group about it here.


Add your Location to your Instagram Bio

 

This is another little shift you can make that will have a BIG IMPACT

Add the word “doula” (or “postpartum doula” or “birth doula”) and your LOCATION to your Name line on your Instagram bio. See example here.

Also make sure that your location is in the bio description as well. Bonus points for starting to add your Location to all your posts (click on “Add Location”). This will help Instagram know who to show your posts to!


 

Once you’ve created these profiles, here are some next steps:
