How do you go from local to global? For Jonathan, it’s been about smart email marketing, embracing AI tools, and narrowing his focus to specific industries like audiology practices. By honing in on a niche, Bluehance 360 creates solutions that genuinely resonate with their clients.
Balancing Tech and Humanity
While AI plays a big role in Bluehance 360’s success - helping with personalized outreach and streamlined research—Jonathan emphasizes the importance of the human touch. Empathy and genuine connections are what turn good businesses into great ones.
Why Wix Studio?
Jonathan has long been a fan of Wix Studio's products, and he highlighted how their evolution has made them a top choice for his projects. For him, it’s not about the tools themselves—it’s about the results they help deliver for clients.
