About GSD Local
GSD Local was born out of a genuine passion for helping small businesses grow. Founded by Daniel Terry, an Army veteran and lifelong entrepreneur, GSD Local brings a personal and practical approach to digital marketing. Daniel’s journey began in 1992 when he and his wife opened their first coffee shop while he juggled a day job. Fascinated by the power of marketing, he dove headfirst into learning everything he could—through trial, error, and investing in marketing courses. By 2005, he left his day job to pursue business full time and has since built several successful ventures.
The idea for GSD Local took shape when Daniel realized how much he enjoyed sharing what he had learned with other business owners. While he initially offered a wide range of marketing services, over time, he honed in on what really moves the needle for local businesses: local SEO and strategic press releases. With the rise of AI, Daniel has seamlessly integrated cutting-edge tools into his process, allowing his clients to grow faster and smarter than ever before.
At its core, GSD Local exists for one reason: to get local businesses more customers and help them rank higher in search engines. That’s the mission Daniel and his team focus on every single day. And the vision? To become the trusted brand in every local market they serve—a go-to company that small businesses can rely on.
GSD Local stands on a foundation of integrity, up-to-date professional expertise, and a relentless focus on delivering innovative solutions that bring real results. Daniel guarantees his work, brings honest effort to every project, and prioritizes customer-focused service. His commitment to the community is more than a slogan—it’s a way of doing business.
What truly sets GSD Local apart is its local presence, personal touch, and affordable services. Unlike faceless digital agencies, Daniel takes the time to get to know his clients, becoming a part of their community and understanding their unique challenges. He’s not just selling services—he’s building partnerships that grow businesses.
Daniel's background deeply influences the way GSD Local operates. As a veteran, he brings a strong work ethic and a results-driven mindset to the table. In past roles, such as in real estate, he’s gone the extra mile—helping clients raise their credit scores to qualify for their dream homes. That same drive fuels his desire to see other business owners succeed in ways that truly change lives.
When you connect with GSD Local, you can count on honesty first. Daniel is committed to letting you know if he’s the right fit to help your business. If he can make a difference, you’ll get his full dedication—and a plan that’s tailored to your goals.
