THE BOARD · HOW WE THINK
Every post, ad, page and reply is a move. We see your market as a board and play it for you.
A competitor runs an ad. A bad review lands. A lead texts at midnight. Each one is a move on your board. We answer with the right piece.
I · THE OPENING
Where do you stand right now?
Six yes-or-no questions. See where your business stands today.
EVALUATE YOUR POSITION0.0
♚
♔
1.Last month, did more new customers find you online than came from referrals?
2.If a stranger saw your ad, your website and your Google listing today, would they get the same message?
3.Do you hold the logins to your own website, ad accounts and Google listing?
4.When someone clicks your ad, do they land on a page about that exact job, not your homepage?
5.Do you know what a new customer costs you, and what you should be spending?
6.If you stopped all paid ads and stopped asking for referrals tomorrow, would new customers still find you next month?
ANSWER ALL SIX TO SEE WHERE YOU STAND
WHERE IT USUALLY BREAKS
01
Your work is better than your marketing.Your jobs are the best in town. Online, you look the same as the guy who undercuts you by 30%, and a stranger can't tell the difference.
02
Referrals built this. They stopped being enough.Word of mouth carried you for years. Some months it still does. Other months the calendar goes quiet and you can't say why.
03
The wrong people keep calling.You get the three-quotes-and-pick-the-cheapest crowd. The clients who would pay for quality never find you.
04
You've paid for marketing before.You got a monthly report full of impressions and clicks, and couldn't point to one job it brought in. So now you do it yourself, when there's time.
05
You own a job, not a business.Every deal closes because you were in the room. Nobody trusts the company yet, they trust you. Take a week off and the revenue takes one too.
THE EVERYWHERE EFFECT
Everywhere they look, the same answer.
The Everywhere Effect isn't a service we sell. It's the result of every piece telling one story. Search, Maps, AI, Social Media, YouTube, TV: one name, one message, in your voice.

One point of contact in place of a stack of vendors.
Most owners have been sold an SEO company, an ads person, a social poster and a web designer. None of them talk to each other, and each reports its own numbers. We replace that stack, so your website, ads, videos, listings and content all say the same thing, in your voice.
CHANNELS
Website, Google Business Profile, search and AI search, social, email, and paid ads on Meta, Google, YouTube and streaming TV.
MEDIA
Commercials, jingles, on-camera video, photos and blog posts, made in-house.
INFRASTRUCTURE
Lead-intelligence dashboards, automations, chatbots and speed to lead.
II · THE MIDDLEGAME
An agency sells you ads and calls the rest your problem.
We build the asset base first and treat media as one channel feeding it. Pick a setup below and watch where the attention goes.

Everywhere at once.
Media puts you in front of more people. Search, content, the site and the systems behind it catch that attention and hold it, so the calls keep coming.
THE MACHINE · FIVE PIECES
Every piece has a job on the board.
Before a stranger hires you, they have to find you, trust you, and pick you over the other guy. Each piece owns one of those moments.
♔COMPOUNDS
THE KING
Search
Show up on Google, on local listings, and now on AI search. Protect this and everything else has somewhere to land.
♕COMPOUNDS
THE QUEEN
Studio-grade content
Commercials, jingles, short form, photos, graphics, blog posts, press. The most versatile piece on the board.
♖COMPOUNDS
THE ROOK
Site, landing pages, funnels
The thing attention lands on. Built to convert, so traffic turns into calls instead of bounces.
♗COMPOUNDS
THE BISHOP
Infrastructure
Lead intelligence dashboards, automations, chatbots, speed to lead. The part that catches the lead at two in the morning.
♘FEEDS THE MACHINE
THE KNIGHT
Media
Meta, Google, YouTube, streaming TV, retargeting. It leaps over the competition, as long as it has somewhere to land.
One player moves all five.
No more forwarding the web guy's email to the ads guy. We plan, build and run every piece, so you're not the one keeping them in sync.

One point of contact who owns strategy, build and day-to-day on your account, and answers for the results. You're never passed around.
What does it cost?+
Take the first digit of your monthly revenue and add three zeros. Two thirds builds the machine, a third feeds it with media. The calculator above shows your number.
Do I own the work?+
Yes. The site, the content, the search presence and the systems are yours. That's why they keep working when the ads are off.
How much of my time does it take?+
Very little. When we need something from you, it shows up in your Blocked column with exactly what to send.
How long is the contract?+
Every client starts with a 90-day growth sprint. That's what it takes to study your position and get the first moves landing. After that, you move to flexible ongoing terms set up in your favor. One-off projects are rare and depend on fit.
What if I want to leave?+
After the sprint, the terms are flexible, so you're never locked in. You walk away with everything: the accounts, the logins, the site and the content. Nothing is held back.
Who owns the accounts and logins?+
You do. Every account is in your name and you hold every login. We work inside the access you give us.
How is ad spend handled?+
Ad spend is separate from our fee and billed directly to you by the platform. No markup, no middleman. Nothing gets spent without your approval first.
