Can you promise me more customers?
No, and nobody honestly can. More customers are what the work aims at, and what I check every month. What I promise is that the work gets done, and that you see the numbers: views, calls and map clicks. If something isn't working, I'll tell you.
Do I have to pay for ads?
No. You can start without ads. The first work is the unpaid side: your Google profile, your website, your reviews and your listings. Ads can add to that. If you want them, I set them up and look after them, and you pay Google or Meta for the ads yourself. If I don't think ads are worth it for you yet, I'll say so.
Can you guarantee I'll show up in ChatGPT?
No, and nobody honestly can. ChatGPT and other AI assistants decide for themselves which businesses to name, their answers change from one question to the next, and they don't publish how they choose. What I can do is make your business easier for them to understand and check: a complete Business Profile, the same details everywhere you're listed, and clear pages about your services and area. That improves your chances. The same goes for Google rankings, the map, traffic and leads: no guarantees, and a website on its own doesn't decide whether an AI assistant recommends you.
What happens on the free audit call?
We talk for 20 minutes about your business, the area you serve and the work you want more of. I look at how customers find you, across Google Search, Maps and ChatGPT, and ask how inquiries, bookings and paperwork get done today. Then I tell you what I'd work on first and what it would cost. If I don't think I'm the right fit for you, I'll say so. There's no pressure to buy.
Why only five clients?
I'm one person, and each monthly client gets real time from me. Five is what I can do well. Right now two places are open.
Is the audit call really free?
Yes. There's no obligation, and you don't have to buy anything.
What is the Growth Report?
A one-time written report, $297, and a small first step if you're not ready for the monthly plan. On the audit call we pick the one thing to look at: how you're found, how customers reach you, or how you keep up with the work. I look into it, write up what I find, list what to fix in order, and walk you through it on a call. The free audit call is a quick look, out loud. The report is the full version, in writing. If you join the Growth Partner, the $297 comes off your first month.
What is the Growth Partner?
It's my monthly plan, $1,995 a month, month to month. One price covers the whole service menu, in two halves. Marketing is getting you found and making it easy to call you. Operations is the tools and AI that help you keep up. You tell me what matters most, I do it, and we move to the next thing. We talk every week. There are no add-ons and no hourly bills. The full menu is on the Growth Partner page.
Do I need a website to show up in Maps or ChatGPT?
Not always. When I asked AI assistants about one local service (drywall in London, Ontario), several businesses with no website were recommended, and many with websites weren't. Your Business Profile, reviews and listings matter a lot. A good website still helps: it gives Google and AI assistants clear, checkable information about what you do and where.
Can I hire you for one job, like a website?
The site only lists my monthly plan, because the work goes better when I stay on it. A new website, site fixes, ads and tools are all part of the Growth Partner, and you can stop any month. If you need something smaller, or one thing only, tell me on the audit call and I'll tell you straight what I can do.
I already have a website. Do I need a new one?
Often not. Most of the time I work on the site you have: speed, structure, local SEO and a clearer way to call, book or send an inquiry. If a new site would be better value, I'll say so and explain why. Either way it's part of the Growth Partner.
Can you help if my Business Profile is suspended or I can't get into it?
Yes. I can help with access, verification and recovery. I can't promise that a suspended profile will be reinstated.
Can you work with the tools I already use?
Yes. Inquiry forms, pages and tracking can be custom built or set up inside software you already use. We choose what fits how inquiries reach you.
Can you build a custom app or internal tool?
Yes. I'm a software engineer, and I build pricing and intake calculators, client portals and tools for teams. We start with the one job it has to do. It's part of the Growth Partner.
Can you set up ChatGPT or AI for my business?
Yes. I can set up ChatGPT or another AI assistant to know your business, or add AI to the tools you already use. We pick one job first. It's part of the Growth Partner, and so is AI concierge: you bring me your questions and ideas about AI.
