For local business owners

Haven't posted since March. Two reviews you never answered. And the guy across town shows up first on Google.

That's my job now — $700 a month.

Less than a part-time employee. No contract — cancel any month.

  • No time to post — and it shows
  • Reviews sitting there with no reply
  • Customers can't find you on Google
  • No idea what's actually working

What's inside the $700

Everything inside the $700

Ten places your business can show up. Use all of them or three of them — it's the same $700, because you're buying my time, not a checklist.

$700per month — everything below is included

Google Business Profile & search visibility

  • Weekly Google posts, offers and photo updates
  • Business Profile optimization — categories, services, service area
  • Q&A seeded and monitored so buyers get real answers
  • Local map-pack tuning for your towns, not a generic radius

Included with every client

Your own dashboard — nothing posts without you

Every client gets a private dashboard with a content calendar showing exactly what is scheduled and when. Every post, caption, ad and video lands there first, and you approve it, reject it, or ask for changes before it appears anywhere.

  • A calendar of everything planned this month
  • Approve or reject any post, caption, ad or video
  • Request changes and see them turned around

Straightforward pricing

Pick the level that fits

Anything above the monthly fee is ad spend you choose, on your own accounts, with no markup from me. Websites, configurators and estimators start at $500. Accounts you already have set up cost nothing to take on — just add me as an admin. If I have to build and set up a new account from scratch, that's a one-time $50 per account.

Focused Campaign

Google, Facebook and Instagram

$550/month

For a business that just wants ads and posts running well on the big three. Ad spend is separate and stays in your name.

  • Google, Facebook & Instagram
  • Posts, ads and captions
  • Monthly reporting

Growth Program

Your marketing department

$700/month

A block of my time each month, spent wherever your business needs it. Pick any mix of the wheel above — website management and email are included.

  • Any mix of the 10 areas above
  • Website management + email included
  • Your own approval dashboard
  • Direct access to me, not a team of juniors

What most clients choose

$1,350/month

Yelp, reputation management, social media and the Google/SEO program together — the full package that runs a local business's entire online presence.

  • Everything in the Growth Program
  • Yelp Premier agency campaign management
  • Full reputation management
  • Priority turnaround

Yelp Package

Yelp Premier agency access

$470 – $2,000/month

Depends on the ad spend you choose. As a Yelp Premier agency I can remove competitors from your page, replace stock images with your real portfolio and run a professional campaign.

  • Competitor ads removed from your page
  • Real-photo portfolio, not stock
  • Premier-only placements and upgrades
Just want a Facebook and Instagram campaign? That's fine — I'll quote it smaller. The program is for businesses that want SEO, reputation management and social media working together. See all services

Questions

Before you ask

Is $700 a fixed checklist?

No. It's a block of my time each month. Some clients spend it all on social and reviews, others on SEO and their website. You choose, and you can change it any month.

What about ad spend?

Ad spend is separate, it's yours, it stays on your own accounts, and I don't mark it up. You decide the budget and I manage the campaigns.

What does it cost to set up my accounts?

Nothing if the account already exists — Facebook, Instagram, Google, Yelp, Nextdoor, wherever. You just add me as an admin and I take it from there. If the account doesn't exist yet and I have to build it and set everything up, it's a one-time $50 per account.

What if I only want Facebook?

Then don't buy the program. I'll quote a smaller custom campaign — the $550 Google, Facebook and Instagram plan covers most of those requests.

Do I approve things before they post?

Yes. Every post, caption, ad and video goes into your dashboard first. You approve it, reject it, or ask for changes.

Is there a contract?

Month to month. If I'm not earning it, you shouldn't be paying it.
