Blogging is so much more than just writing — it's a tool for education, SEO, branding, and real connection. In this Q&A episode, Mark sits down with Alyssa Abbott of Olive & Vine to explore the power of blogging for builders, designers, and trades. They unpack how a single blog can answer client questions, attract organic traffic, and showcase the values behind your brand. From writing strategies and SEO nerd-outs to real client stories and AI tools, this episode is packed with honest insights on how to make blogging actually work for your business — without adding another thing to your already full plate.

Whether you're a seasoned builder or just starting to think about your marketing strategy, you'll walk away with simple ways to use content that converts curious browsers into loyal clients.
