I spend a week inside your business, talking to you and whoever else touches marketing. You come out with a map: where your time and money are actually going, what a system could take over, and what to fix first. You keep it either way.
Sound familiar
The hard part isn't fixing it. It's knowing which bit to fix first.
What it costs to get a proper answer
So most people never get the answer, and keep spending anyway.
71% of small businesses do all their own marketing. Nearly half spend money on it with no real idea whether it worked. Not because they don't care. Because finding out has always cost more than the problem.

How it works
You tell me how marketing currently works, or doesn't. I tell you honestly whether this is worth doing. If it isn't, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.
30 minutes, free
I talk to you, and to anyone else who touches marketing. I go through your tools, your lists, your numbers, what's connected and what isn't, what you've tried and what happened. I ask the questions nobody's asked you yet.
1 week
Written up, in plain English, walked through with you on a call. What's costing you, what to fix first, and what it would take. Then you decide what to do with it. Build it yourself, hand it to someone else, or ask me to build it.
Yours to keep
The offer
No retainer, no lock-in, nothing to cancel.
Then it's your call. Plenty of what I find you can do yourself, and I'll tell you which bits. If you want me to build the rest, we scope that separately. There's no obligation and I won't chase you.
If you already know exactly what you want built, skip all this. Tell me on the call and we'll scope the build directly.
What usually comes out of it
I've been in marketing 10 years. Most of what I find isn't exotic. It's just nobody's job to look.
My first client
She sells a course. She'd put things together in pieces, so nothing followed anything and there was no order to it. She wanted to launch, she didn't want to hire a team, and she didn't have the money for one anyway. So I started with what she was actually trying to achieve, and why, and worked backwards from that.
Read everything she'd ever published, pulled out her real phrasing, and built the whole thing in her own language.
Her offers, her buyer, her objections, in the order her buyer actually decides in. Another business would have needed something completely different.
Top to bottom: broken links, dead buttons, prices showing differently on different devices. All fixed before anyone saw it.
Why me
I've been in marketing 10 years, and I've run my own business. So I know exactly how it feels when all of it lands on you.
Especially when you're not technical. Especially when AI is still this new thing you keep meaning to sit down and figure out. Especially when there's no budget to hire the people who would take it off your hands, and no spare capacity to learn it all yourself.
Asking the right questions is the part I'm actually good at. I do it every week, for companies much bigger than yours, and it's the part almost nobody bothers with before they start selling you something.
Before you ask
If the week says your problem isn't something a system fixes, that's what the map will say. I'd rather lose the build than sell you something that sits unused.
Invoices, scheduling, tidying your inbox. Plenty of people do that. It has never made anyone any money and it isn't what I'm good at.
I'll look at whether they're working and tell you honestly. Managing the spend should be someone else's job, and I'll tell you who.
Questions
A written document and a 45-minute call where I walk you through it. It covers how your marketing runs today, where the time and money go, what to fix first, and what each fix is worth. It's yours. Take it to anyone.
Because a free consultation is a sales call, and you can tell. I'm not going to spend a week of real work hoping you buy something afterwards, and you shouldn't want me to. You pay, you get the answer, and you owe me nothing after that.
No. If you can tell me how someone becomes your customer, that's enough.
Around 3 hours of your time, spread across the week. The rest I do on my own.
You've got real revenue and either a small team or nobody, and marketing keeps landing on someone who already has 4 other jobs. If you have a marketing team and they're good, you don't need me.
Then we scope it separately, off the back of the map. Plenty of clients won't need me for that, and I'll tell you when that's the case.
30 minutes. Tell me how marketing currently works in your business. You'll know quickly whether there's anything here worth paying for.
