Method

Be Seen Everywhere.
Chosen Every Time.

The four steps below describe the shape of every engagement, regardless of which pillars are in scope. We're honest about what we do; quiet about how we do it. The mechanics are proprietary. The output is verifiable: every claim sourced, every recommendation traceable, every platform actually visited — not pulled from an aggregator.

A research system, not a service menu.

01

Map.

We catalogue every venue your customer consults.

Google, Maps, AI answer engines, sector directories, review sites, social platforms, community forums. Before we recommend anything, we know where attention actually lives for your sector and your geography — not where it lived three years ago.

What you receive
  • Platform inventory (100+ directories)
  • Sector-specific venue weighting
  • Coverage scorecard (where you're present vs. absent)
02

Mine.

Primary research at scale, with verified sources only.

Every listing visited live. Every review read. Every competitor's footprint documented from the source, not pulled from an aggregator. We use AI to read at scale; we use humans to decide what's true. Nothing in our deliverables is synthesized from a model alone.

What you receive
  • Live competitor teardown
  • Source-cited claim matrix
  • Review and reputation signal feed
03

Make.

Listings, content, and on-platform presence.

We fix what's broken and build what's missing — listings cleaned, GBP run as a publishing channel, sector directories claimed, on-site photography produced, schema implemented. Editorial taste applied to your actual business, not a template.

What you receive
  • NAP consistency across 100+ directories
  • GBP and sector-directory program
  • On-site photography, video, and content calendar
04

Measure.

Coverage, AI citation rate, and bookings.

We measure against the venues that move customers, not the ones that flatter the report. Rankings and impressions are diagnostics. Bookings, calls, and citations in AI answers are the goal. Same rubric, ninety days later.

What you receive
  • Coverage dashboard
  • AI citation rate across six engines
  • 90-day re-score against original benchmark

What we don't do.

The clearest way to describe a firm is by what it refuses. Ours, in plain language.

× We don't sell hours
We sell the report, the work, and the outcome.
Time-and-materials engagements reward ambiguity. Ours are scoped to the deliverable.
× We don't take affiliate fees
No referral kickbacks. No platform commissions.
Service fees are our only revenue. When we recommend a tool or platform, it's because it works — not because we get paid.
× We don't guess at AI
We test it live across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Most agencies talk about AI search. We score the result. It's a TMI methodology.
× We don't use stock photography
If it's on our work, it's of our work.
Editorial design only. Real artifacts, real numbers, real quotes.
× We don't take everyone
We work with businesses serious about being found and chosen.
If we don't think we can move the number, we'll tell you and refer you out.
× We don't reveal the recipe
Our research methodology is proprietary. The output is verifiable.
Every claim sourced, every recommendation traceable. The mechanics are ours.
