Help me get known in a new area I've started covering.

My business: [what you do]
Home area and new area: [places]
Why I'm expanding: [e.g. more demand, moved house]
What I already have there: [customers, contacts, a job booked]
Budget and time: [rough]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. A 6-week plan, week by week.
2. Updates to my website, Google Business Profile and listings so the new area shows.
3. Local groups, noticeboards and businesses to approach.
4. A message to my first customers there asking for a recommendation or review.
5. How to tell whether it's working.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts or results. UK English.
