As a marketer, creative problem solving is my superpower.

Ann drove a steady stream of business to my website from SEO and Google Ads. She redesigned my website so that all of my sales bookings were automated, making my business run much more efficiently. I recently sold my business and retired, thanks in large part to Ann’s marketing efforts.

What it’s like to work with me on SEO

Understand your business and goals.

First, I want to get to know your business and your offerings. What sales or leads are most important to you? Who are your customers? What do they like about your company? How are you different than your competitors? If we determine that SEO is right for your business objectives, we move on to the next step.

Research, Audit and Content Plan

Next, we audit your website to find opportunities to optimize it by looking for technical issues. Then we do keyword research, competitor analysis and create a content plan based on your existing pages and new content. We evaluate individual pages on your site and create action items and assign keywords to rank for.

This provides us with a priortized roadmap of actions to start ranking for keywords and drive targeted traffic to your website.

Present our findings

I’ll review the audit and recommendations with you and your team. You decide if you want to implement the recommendations with your in-house team, hire me and my team, or a hybrid model. We’ll discuss priorities and expectations.

Execute the plan and engage in a monthly contract

Each month, we work on items identified in the Audit by working on technical, content and building authority. I have 3 retainer options based on your budget and motivation.
