What the Thryv Takeover of Keap Means for Small Business Owners

The recent acquisition of Keap by Thryv marks a significant shift in the CRM and small business software landscape. For many Keap users, this merger brings up key questions about platform integration, product evolution, and the potential for new tools. In this post, I’ll walk through what this change means and what small business owners should expect. Why the Merger? Thryv, known for its comprehensive business management solutions, has strategically acquired Keap to expand its reach among small businesses looking for robust yet accessible CRM systems. Keap’s user-friendly automation features, coupled with Thryv’s broader suite, means enhanced capabilities for current and future clients. What Changes to Expect For current Keap users, you can expect gradual changes, likely with added features and expanded integrations. Thryv’s emphasis on streamlining business operations suggests more tools to simplify client interactions, appointments, and marketing processes. Is This Good News for Keap Users? Absolutely. Thryv’s resources and support structures will likely bring increased development and security to the platform. While there may be a transition period, the overall integration should enhance Keap’s tools and provide access to new solutions without losing the functionality and simplicity Keap users rely on. Looking Forward Change can be daunting, but this merger could offer significant advantages for small business owners looking for reliable CRM solutions. Thryv’s larger framework could make automation and client engagement even easier to manage, with new possibilities for growth and scalability. For any small business looking to stay on top of client management, this merger might just be the beginning of an era where user needs are met more effectively than ever before. Stay tuned as I continue to follow these developments, keeping you informed about how they impact your CRM strategy.

Why expensive “Guru” Cookie-Cutter Strategies and Templates Don’t Work for Your Business

You’ve seen them: the gurus in your industry flashing their fancy cars, designer watches, and million-dollar homes. They’ve got the “winning system” and are more than happy to sell you the so-called “secrets” behind their success. But here’s the harsh reality: these cookie-cutter solutions rarely, if ever, work. Take it from my client, John (name changed, but the story is 100% real). John came to me after years of frustration. He was exhausted. He’d followed every step the gurus laid out—buying courses, bought that latest software tools, buying Keap campaign templates, copying HighLevel snapshots. You name it, John had tried it. Every guru promised the same thing: “Just follow this blueprint, and you’ll be making six figures in no time.” (As an aside – as soon as a potential JV partner, affiliate etc says “we will make a fortune together then run a mile – they will never deliver) So John did. He followed every script, every formula. No shortcuts. And guess what happened? Nothing. Each time, it flopped. Over and over again. John wasn’t just disappointed—he was on the verge of giving up. His business wasn’t just stagnant; it was going backward. He was wasting time and burning through money, trying to force-fit his business into someone else’s mould. Here’s the thing: These “winning systems” may have worked for the gurus, but they’re not built for your business, your audience, or your goals. (Often the winning system is the system that sold you on buying the winning system – and that is now what you sell.) Every business is different, and what works for one person often fails for another. Yet, that’s exactly what John had been doing—forcing his unique business into a generic template. And it was costing him more than just money—it was draining his energy, his time, and his sanity. When John came to me, we took a step back. We stopped trying to squeeze his business into a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, we created a personalized plan, tailored to his strengths, his audience, and his vision. Within just a few months, John saw results that completely turned things around. He went from feeling like he was drowning to generating more income in a week than he had in months. That’s what happens when you ditch the cookie-cutter formulas. I’ve spent the last 20 years learning and studying the stratergies and tactics the “gurus” preach—and yes, there’s value in understanding them. But the difference is, I don’t just copy and paste. I apply the right mix of strategies that work for your specific business. If you’re tired of following cookie-cutter formulas that don’t work, I’m here to help. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions—I believe in your solution. Let’s sit down, look at where you are, and create a plan that actually works for you. If you’re ready to stop wasting time on ineffective tactics, I’d love to chat. Let’s schedule a Discovery call and find the right path forward for your business. You can book a Discover Call here.

Industrial Espionage on the cheap – a nice little growth hack

I was just reading my recent copy of The Circular (Issue 168, page 27) from the Entrepreneur’s Circle and had to chuckle at this smart little growth hack. Nick Jenkins who founded Moonpig.com was telling EC members how he had grown his business from £2.5M to £45M. He was looking to scale and had discounted TV advertising as too expensive. But he noticed one of his competitors was using TV. So in a nutshell by placing a regular order for a greetings card from the competitor and recording the order number he was able to get a good estimate on the number of sales they were doing. (Because most companies accounting systems use a sequential ordering number.) And from this and making informed assumptions he was able to work back that the average cost per customer was £10, which was the magic number. And so this gave him to confidence to throw £50,000 into a TV advert. And the rest as they say is history. This is just one example how over the past 5 years the EC has made me a smarter entrepreneur and positively impacted on my business growth – try for yourself and take a look at The Entrepreneurs Circle, they even do a free trial.
