You do good work. The right people should be able to find you.
Too often the job goes to whoever shows up first on Google, not whoever does the best work. I help local businesses bring in more leads, calls, and customers.
The website is the foundation. The monthly strategy is what keeps it growing.
What your business gets
Three monthly growth plans. Every plan starts with getting found: your website and Google Business Profile working together. The larger plans add paid ads, lead nurturing, and automation as your traffic grows into them. A website on its own doesn’t bring in leads; the monthly work does.
I’ll recommend a plan on our first call.
A rock-solid website that gets you found and gets you the call
Fast, clear, easy to use on a phone, and head and shoulders above what your competitors are running. It looks the part too, because people call businesses they trust.
Google Business Profile management
So you show up in Google Maps and local search: every detail right, an active profile, and reviews coming in steadily.
A customer list you actually own
Most local businesses have no way to reach past customers. Your website collects emails from visitors and customers, so repeat work and referrals come from asking instead of luck.
What you can count on
-
A seasoned partner
I’ve run my own business since 1998, through every shift in how the web works, and I know what it’s like to be good at the work and still wonder where next month’s customers are coming from. I’ll be here next year and the year after.
-
Monthly results you can see
I send you a one-page report each month, so you’re never wondering what you’re paying for or whether it’s working. A short 15-minute check-in keeps you in the loop about what’s working, and what’s planned for next month. Whether we keep going is your call.
-
Your area stays yours
I won’t take on a direct competitor of yours in the same area.
-
No long-term contract
Start, stop, or pause anytime. I ask for the first three months to build momentum; after that, you keep going because of the results.
-
Nothing technical to think about
You never have to think about the technical side, or chase anyone to get something fixed. Premium hosting, maintenance, performance and security monitoring, backups, and support. Every inquiry from your website makes it to your inbox, not a spam folder.
-
It’s yours
You own your domain, your content, and your website.
Good fit
I’d rather turn down a business that isn’t a fit than take on work that won’t move the needle.
-
You run a local business with a physical location or service area and in-person relationships with customers.
-
You’ve been in business for at least several years, rather than just getting started.
-
You could take on more customers right now.
-
You want an ongoing system that keeps bringing in customers, not a one-time website.
-
You’re committed to quality work and customer satisfaction, because no website or marketing can make up for a poor customer experience.
-
You know (or can estimate) what a new customer is worth to you over time, meaning you view marketing as an investment measured against that number.
-
You prefer that an experienced professional runs and tunes your website and marketing while you focus on what you do best.
Here’s how it works
-
Book a 30-minute call.
We talk through your business and see if this is the right fit.
-
I recommend a plan.
We go over the plans and pricing on the call. No proposal to wait on.
-
Your website goes to work.
Each month you see what it did and decide whether we keep going.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a long-term contract?
Absolutely not! I do ask for the first three months so the work has time to show results. We’ll have a quick 15-minute call each month where you’ll see how things are going, and what I plan to do for your business for the next month. If you decide not to proceed, or if you’d like to pause for a season, just let me know.
If you’d like me to keep hosting and maintaining your website, we’d move you to a lower-cost care plan that covers just that. And if you decide to part ways, I’ll provide you with a copy of your website and content.
Where are you located and what areas do you serve?
I’m located on the west edge of Murfreesboro, TN, and serve local businesses throughout Middle Tennessee including Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, Nolensville, Thompson’s Station, College Grove, Mount Juliet, Smyrna, La Vergne, Lebanon, and other surrounding cities. I’m also happy to work with local businesses anywhere in the U.S.
Can I work with you in person?
If you’d rather meet face to face to get acquainted and dig into what your business needs, I’m happy to meet at a coffee shop near Murfreesboro, Franklin, or elsewhere in Middle Tennessee. Our brief 15-minute check-ins each month will be video or phone calls.
What types of businesses do you serve?
I work with local businesses that have a physical location or service area and in-person relationships with customers. Just a few examples include home services such as HVAC companies, electricians, plumbers, roofers, contractors, and landscaping companies, and health and wellness businesses such as dentists, chiropractors, therapists, and personal trainers.
Please take a moment to check if we’re a good fit to work together.
If you have a different kind of business, please still feel free to reach out. Founders of startups looking for a full-stack engineer can head over to my consulting page for details.
What if I already have a website?
When we talk, I’ll tell you honestly whether what you already have can be patched up and improved, or whether it would be more work to fix than to start fresh. Part of what I promise is thoughtful, customer-friendly design, lightning-fast performance, security, and all of the technical benefits so you don’t have to think about them.
The best results usually come from starting fresh, though your current site may be worth keeping. Either way, everything moves to premium services that let me work fast and react quickly to any issues.
How long does it take to see results?
If we’re building a foundation for organic SEO, it takes a while for Google to catch up. The results compound over time, but authoritative sources on SEO are consistent that it takes three to six months to produce measurable results, possibly longer in competitive industries and locations. I know — not what you want to hear (me either)!
In the meantime, there are other avenues such as paid traffic that we can use to bring in visitors, capture and nurture leads, and make sales.
