We had the good fortune of connecting with Ryan Steinolfson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ryan, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Fifteen years ago, I embarked on the journey of entrepreneurship driven by a desire for flexibility and freedom. Leaving behind a career in biotech sales, I ventured into the digital realm, craving a space where I could spend more time with family and explore the world. The catalyst? The departure from my corporate role propelled me into building my own venture.

What should our readers know about your business?
My journey to success has been paved with persistence, a sales-centric approach, and a commitment to nurturing a vibrant organizational culture. Recognizing my role as a growth catalyst, I prioritize personal and professional development to overcome limiting beliefs and propel business expansion.

What excites me most is tackling one of the biggest challenges faced by businesses: missed calls. For over a decade, I’ve witnessed how poor intake processes can profoundly affect the success of businesses. By leveraging artificial intelligence, we’ve revolutionized lead management by emulating human interaction in our responses, ensuring that all messages and calls are promptly answered. Our focus on optimizing Google Local Service Ads not only enhances customer engagement but also elevates search engine rankings, emphasizing the correlation between prompt responses and online visibility.

Many business owners are unfamiliar with Google’s intricate evaluation criteria, which encompass more than just reviews, extending to factors like response time. Leveraging AI-powered solutions, we’re tackling both aspects, enabling businesses to flourish in the digital era.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I am a very outdoorsy person and this itinerary reflects it:

We’ll kick off our adventure by hitting the water for some paddleboarding in the stunning La Jolla Cove. Paddle alongside colorful marine life and soak up the beautiful ocean views.
