Make your business the answer

When an investor, a prospect, or an AI assistant looks you up, what they find should match the quality of your pitch. I make that true — in two phases. Everything here is something I've already done, for my own company.

Phase 1 — first 30 days

The credibility work

Fixed fee

So that when anyone looks you up, they find a company that looks like the leader in its category.

  • Search & AI review. A written report on what search engines and AI assistants say about you today, and what to fix first — in your hands in week one.
  • Sales sheet. One page: what you do, why it matters, and what proves it — in the words your buyers use.
  • Website groundwork. The blueprint your team implements — page structure, AI-crawler permissions, question-and-answer pages, and wording that makes you the answer.
  • One consistent name. Standardize every version of your name and address into a single strong signal.
  • Case study. Your best result, written up in a reusable format, so every future win becomes sales material.
Phase 2 — ongoing

The content engine

Monthly · first 3 months committed, then month to month

Your own data is your best marketing material. Each month I turn it into a story that earns visibility.

  • One finished story a month. Researched, written, and published on your own site — then pitched to the trade press your buyers read.
  • Staying findable. Upkeep on the search and AI work from Phase 1, so visibility keeps building instead of fading.
  • Data analysis. Digging through your data to find the statistics that power the stories and the sales material.
  • Regulated-industry copy. Material that answers the compliance questions before a careful lawyer or investor asks them.
  • Message updates. Tuning the wording for sales and investor conversations as you learn what lands.

Who does what

I bring them to the door

The stories, the published articles, and the search-and-AI presence that make prospects aware of you and interested in talking. Measured on visibility and interest generated.

You close the deals

Sales outreach, conversations, pricing, and contracts stay with your team, who know the product and the customer best.

The handoff

I deliver interested prospects; your team turns them into customers. Clear lane, clear measurement, no overlap.
