Pricing | What Local Search and AI Visibility Work Costs

The honest answer is that it depends. Here is what it depends on.

Nobody likes that answer, so I am not going to leave it there. Below is exactly what moves the number, what the floor is, and who I am not the right person for.

The short version

Most of the work I take on starts around $7,500 for the first ninety days. Ongoing work after that starts at $2,500 a month and is always optional.

Your real number comes out of a twenty minute call, not a form.

Five things that move the number

How many places you need to be found

One building in one town is a different job from a contractor covering nine towns, or an operator with four properties.

Whether your website can actually be changed

Some platforms let me work. Some are locked down, and that changes what is possible and how long it takes.

How much is already in place

If your listing is claimed, your reviews are real and your information is consistent, you are starting further along and paying for less.

Who you are up against

A town with two competitors and a town with forty are not the same amount of work, whatever anyone tells you.

Whether there is a clock running

A new building in lease-up with a construction loan accruing is a different situation from a stable business that wants to stop renting leads. Urgency does not cost more by itself, but it changes what we do first and how much happens at once.

Who I am not right for

I would rather tell you here than take the call and waste your afternoon.

If you are looking for something under a few hundred dollars a month.

That buys somebody posting on your behalf, not this.

If you need leads this week.

Paid advertising does that. This compounds instead, and the first movement shows up in weeks rather than days.

If you want somebody to just do what they are told.

You are hiring me for judgement. If you have already decided what the work is, you want a contractor rather than a specialist.

What the call actually is

Twenty minutes. You tell me about the business, I tell you where you stand and roughly what it would take. If that number is wrong for you, you will know inside the twenty minutes rather than after three weeks of proposals.

I am not going to pitch you, and there is no deck. If I do not think I can move the needle for you, I will say so, and that has happened.

You will get a real number on the call. Not a range, not a starting-at, the number for your situation.
