DONE FOR YOU · WE DO THE WORK

The $99 Google Pilot: we improve your Google presence for you

This is a hands-on service, not a coaching session. We optimize your Google Business Profile, set up a system for requesting real customer reviews, and respond professionally to every existing review. You give us the business details and approve the finished work; we handle the setup.

For nearby customers, your Google profile is your storefront. The pilot strengthens that foundation before you commit to a monthly plan. If you decide to continue, the next step is a one-time setup fee plus a monthly plan, all quoted in writing first.

$99 one-time · done for you · no monthly plan required

Not the AI Setup Session: that separate $99 offer is coaching. We teach you to use AI, and you do the work yourself.

Building a side hustle or a full-time business?

AI can help you launch a detailing service, cleaning company, food business, online shop, or nearly any other venture. But starting quickly is not enough. Customers still need to find you, trust you, and understand why they should choose you.

SIDE HUSTLE

Built after hours, presented professionally

You should not have to learn five marketing apps between shifts. We set up your Google profile, first posts, and review link so the business looks established from the first search — even while you are still working your day job.

MAIN BUSINESS

Your main income needs a distinct brand

If the business has to replace a paycheck, generic AI copy will not carry it. We sharpen your offer, build a profile around what customers actually search, and write in your voice — not the same phrases used by every other AI-started business.

DON'T KNOW AI AT ALL

You can benefit from AI without learning every tool

For done-for-you services, you do not need a ChatGPT account, prompt tricks, or another dashboard. Tell us what you sell in plain language. We use AI behind the scenes, review the work carefully, and send the finished version for your approval.

Why AI-started businesses fail — and what to do about it

The research points to two problems before everything else: building something before anyone agrees to pay for it, then failing to reach enough buyers. AI can make both problems worse. Building is so cheap and fast that beginners often skip validation, while the same generic output floods the same crowded channels. The harder skills still matter: choosing a specific buyer, reaching that buyer, asking for the sale, and charging enough to cover the real costs. For context, Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that about 20% of new businesses close in year one, about 50% by year five, and about 65% by year ten.

1

No validated demand — built before anyone agreed to pay

Evidence — strong. CB Insights' analysis of 431 venture-backed shutdowns since 2023 found poor product-market fit in 43% of cases — the leading root cause once "ran out of capital" is recognized as the final event, not the cause. AI lowers the cost of building to near zero, so beginners produce the product first and discover demand never existed.

THE FIX — Validate with money, not compliments: name one specific buyer and one painful problem, interview 10–15 of them, and pre-sell (deposit, paid pilot, or pre-order) before building more. A landing page and a waitlist alone are not validation. Kill or narrow the idea if nobody pays.

2

No customers, no distribution — a marketing failure, not a product failure

Evidence — strong. The Federal Reserve's 2025 Small Business Credit Survey report found reaching customers / growing sales was the #1 operational challenge, cited by 57% of employer firms. Constant Contact (2024, 1,300+ businesses) found acquiring new customers was the top marketing challenge (60%), 73% lacked confidence in their marketing, and only 16% were confident they used the right channels. This is distinct from #1: an offer can be wanted and still die invisible.

THE FIX — Pick one channel where your specific buyer already is, and run a 30-day distribution routine before building more product: regular outreach and content aimed at that buyer, a clear next step (book, buy, join the list) on every asset, and an email capture so your reach is not rented. Measure inquiries, not likes.

3

Generic AI output — competing with everyone else's identical AI output

Evidence — moderate to strong. Google's March 2024 scaled-content-abuse update deindexed 837 tracked sites that together lost about 20.7 million monthly visits; all showed signs of AI content and half were 90–100% AI posts (Search Engine Journal tracking data). Practitioner post-mortems report the same pattern for prompt packs, generic ebooks, and faceless content services: easy to make means made by thousands, and buyers stop caring.

THE FIX — Niche down to a micro-problem for a named buyer, and add what AI cannot copy: your own experience, examples, data, before-and-afters, and a specific promised result. Rewrite the offer so a buyer can answer in seconds: what it is, who it is for, what result. Human-edit every customer-facing asset.

4

No human behind the business — customers can't tell a real person stands behind it

Evidence — moderate to strong. A Raptive study of 3,000 US adults (reported in Adweek, July 2025) found trust fell by nearly half when content was merely suspected to be AI-made — even when it was not — and purchase consideration and willingness to pay a premium fell 14% alongside suspected-AI content. BrightLocal's research found that most consumers check reviews (Google, about 83% in 2025) before choosing a local business.

THE FIX — Show the human: a named founder photo and about page, a real story and location, real reviews collected systematically, real examples of the work, and a real contact route that actually responds. Disclose AI assistance honestly where relevant instead of hiding it.

5

Inconsistency and abandonment — marketing is the first thing put off

Evidence — moderate for abandonment and time; weak (practitioner opinion only) for "shiny object syndrome" as a named cause. Constant Contact found 52% of small businesses routinely put off marketing and 56% have an hour or less a day for it. An Ownr Canada survey found time was side hustlers' top challenge (28%), with burnout / work-life balance at 25%. As an enterprise analogue, S&P Global found 42% of companies abandoned most AI initiatives in 2025, up from 17% in 2024. No survey or dataset was found that quantifies idea-hopping between niches or tools as a failure cause — that claim rests on practitioner blogs and opinion, so treat it that way.

THE FIX — One offer, one channel, 90 days before judging. A fixed weekly rhythm small enough to survive a day job, one page of numbers checked weekly, and new ideas parked in a written list instead of acted on. This is a system fix, not a motivation fix — which is why the detailed version below is free help, not a product.

6

Underpricing and broken unit economics — the costs stack up quietly

Evidence — moderate to strong as a general killer; weak as a specifically-AI-measured cause. CB Insights found unsustainable unit economics in 19% of shutdowns. The Federal Reserve survey found rising costs were the top financial challenge (about 75%), with paying operating expenses and uneven cash flow cited by roughly half. Bankrate's 2025 side-hustle survey: the median side hustle earns $200/month and 28% earn $1–$50/month. No study was found isolating AI subscriptions and ad spend as the breaking cost specifically — that mechanism is plausible arithmetic, not measured data, and we flag it as such.

THE FIX — Do the full-cost math before launch: your price has to cover tool subscriptions, platform and marketplace fees, an ad/test budget, payment fees, tax, and your own time at a stated rate — at a realistic, low sales volume. Price to the outcome for a specific buyer, package instead of discounting, and set a walk-away number: if X sales at $Y by date Z do not cover costs, reprice or stop.

7

Platform dependence — one marketplace, one algorithm, one account

Evidence — moderate. CreatorIQ (2025) found platform algorithm changes and volatility were creators' most-cited barrier (18%). Google's March 2024 deindexing (see #3) is the same risk in search form: one policy update erased about 20.7 million visits a month across the tracked sites. The evidence is survey fragments plus cases, not a failure-rate study.

THE FIX — Never let one platform be both your shopfront and your customer list: own a simple website, an email list, and at least one direct contact channel; export your customers and leads weekly; treat marketplace and social reach as rented discovery that feeds assets you own. For local businesses, spread reviews and listings beyond a single profile.

8

Over-trusting AI output — errors, invented facts, and compliance slips

Evidence — moderate as a risk; low as a proven primary cause of business death. An NP Digital study (vendor research, so treat it as directional) found 47.1% of marketers encountered AI inaccuracies several times a week and 36.5% said hallucinated content had been published. The US Copyright Office (January 2025) ruled purely AI-generated material is not copyrightable and prompts alone do not make the user an author — so a raw AI ebook or art product may be an asset you cannot protect and anyone may copy. No evidence was found that this is a top killer on its own; the realistic damage is refunds, bad reviews, takedowns, and wasted ad spend that compound #3 and #4.

THE FIX — A human verification pass on every customer-facing claim: check facts, names, prices, citations, and promises against a source; never let AI write legal, health, financial, or compliance claims unchecked; add genuine human authorship and editing so the asset is protectable; and keep a one-page pre-publish checklist. For regulated areas, get real legal advice — a checklist is not legal advice, and neither is this page.

9

No sales skills, or reluctance to sell — the honest open question

Evidence — weak: practitioner consensus only. No 2024–2026 survey quantifying sales aversion as a failure cause was found. It is best treated as a mechanism inside #2: distribution fails partly because the operator will not do outreach, conversations, or direct asks — and posting AI content becomes a way to avoid them. We are not presenting this as a data-backed ranking, and we will not sell you "sales confidence." The free framework below teaches the part that can be taught: the conversations themselves.

THE FIX — Reframe selling as conversations: a script for 10 outreach conversations a week (research the person, name their problem, offer the specific result, make one clear ask), follow up twice, and keep a simple log of objections so the offer improves. The templates can be taught; the willingness has to be yours.

How to read this ranking: #1 and #2 can trade places depending on the business. An offer nobody wants and an offer nobody sees both produce zero revenue, and many beginners face both at once. #3 and #4 are newer AI-era problems. One important limit: we found no study that surveys AI-first solo businesses as a group and ranks their failure causes. This list combines general small-business and startup data (strong), AI-specific trust and enforcement data (moderate), and practitioner post-mortems (weak). It is a synthesis, not the conclusion of one study.

Free help for the parts nobody can do for you

Consistency (#5) and willingness to sell (#9) cannot honestly be delivered or guaranteed as paid services. We can give you a practical system and a useful script. Following through is still your part.

FREE HELP · FOR #5 — CONSISTENCY

The 90-day, one-page operating system

  • One offer, one channel, 90 days before you judge it. Changing the offer or the channel resets the clock.
  • A weekly rhythm that fits around a day job: 3 distribution actions (outreach, posts, follow-ups aimed at your one buyer) and 1 offer action (improve the page, the price, or the ask) — every week, no heroics.
  • One page of numbers, checked weekly: inquiries, conversations, sales, and what you spent. If it is not on the page, it is not a metric.
  • A parked-ideas list: every new niche, tool, or product idea goes on the written list, not into the business. Review the list at day 90, not at midnight when you thought of it.

FREE HELP · FOR #9 — SELLING WITHOUT FEELING SALESY

The 10-conversations framework

  • 10 real conversations a week with people who match your one specific buyer — not posts broadcast at nobody.
  • The script is four beats: show you researched them, name the specific problem, offer the specific result, make one clear ask ("Worth a 15-minute look this week?").
  • Follow up twice. Most replies come from the follow-ups, and silence usually means busy, not no.
  • Keep an objection log. Every "too expensive," "bad timing," or "need to think" goes in the log — that log is how your offer wording gets better, and it feeds directly into an Offer & Positioning Rewrite if you later want it done for you.

Also free, always: the basics of validating an idea before you build, checking AI output before you publish it, and why owning your customer list matters more than any platform. Those explainers live in this section — they are the top of the funnel, not a product.

What AI can draft — and what still needs a person

We use AI every day. It is fast and useful, but it does not choose the strategy, verify every fact, or finish the work for the place it will actually run. Customers notice those gaps.

AI ALONE · DIY

Fast drafts, unfinished business

Low-cost tools can produce quick drafts. You still have to prompt, check, resize, rewrite, and publish them.

  • Generic copy that sounds like every other new business in your category
  • No one checks facts, prices, hours, or claims before they go public
  • Logos and flyers in the wrong size or format when you actually try to print or post them
  • A Google profile left half set up—or never set up at all—so searchers find competitors first
  • No system for asking real customers for reviews at the right moment
  • You become the marketing department: prompting, fixing, resizing, and rewriting every week

Good for a first draft. Risky as your whole marketing plan.

MARKET PRO · DONE FOR YOU

Choose the $99 Google Pilot I'm opening a new business

Professional marketing built around how customers find you

For most local businesses, the first stop is Google. Customers check your profile, recent reviews, hours, photos, and services before they call. We build that foundation first, then bring specialist expertise to the reviews, ads, pages, print pieces, and campaigns that support it. AI-powered tools help us work efficiently in the background, while a human marketing expert checks, edits, and finishes every detail before it reaches you. Raw AI output never goes out the door. Setup is white-glove: Sean meets with you by voice or video, walks through everything step by step, helps set up your business email and link it to your phone, hands over your optimized Google profile, and answers your questions before the work is considered finished.

How the work moves from idea to launch

Three straightforward steps. No unnecessary meetings and no layers of account management.

STEP 01

Tell us what you need

Use the short form below to tell us about the business, what you sell, and what you want help with. If you are not sure which service fits, say so. Recommending the right starting point is part of the job.

STEP 02

We build it; a human expert reviews every detail

We use specialist marketing expertise across research, copy, design, and setup, with AI-powered tools supporting the production work in the background. A human marketing expert checks the facts, improves the wording and design, and makes sure the finished work sounds like your business before you see it.

STEP 03

White-glove setup and handoff

Sean gets on a personal voice or video call with you and walks through everything step by step — setting up your business email, linking it to your phone, handing over the optimized Google profile, and answering your questions. Nothing is posted, printed, or sent without your approval, and every piece includes two revision rounds.

Monthly marketing plans

These plans keep your Google presence, reviews, and ongoing marketing current each month. Most clients begin with the $99 Google Pilot, then choose a plan with a one-time setup fee. That setup is done with you, not dropped in your inbox: Sean meets with you by voice or video, walks through the business email and phone connection, hands over the optimized Google profile, and answers questions step by step. Every plan includes human review and two revision rounds per piece. There is no long-term contract; cancel anytime.

Choose a focused starter, combine two related services in a bundle, or add one clearly defined extra to a project. The work and prices are the same as the offers listed elsewhere on this page; this section simply makes them easier to compare.

Six focused starting points

Each option handles a different job: diagnosing your online presence, building a website, launching an ad, setting up a marketplace storefront, preparing a seasonal promotion, or teaching you to use AI yourself. Each is a one-time service with a fixed scope. None guarantees traffic, customers, or revenue.

Bundles: two related services, one project

Each bundle combines two offers that work naturally together. We complete both parts in sequence and provide one final report. The listed price is simply the total of the two services.

Found & Trusted

Get found on Google — and look like a real person stands behind the business.

$398 one-time

Google Pilot ($99) + Trust Kit ($299)

  • Everything in the $99 Google Pilot: profile optimized, review system on, every review answered
  • Everything in the Trust Kit: founder / about page, review-collection system, profile cleanup
  • Your AI-made content humanized as part of the same project
  • One plain-English report covering both halves
FOR AI STARTERS

Ready to Sell

Prove someone will pay — then make the offer sharp enough that they do.

$548 one-time

Validation Sprint ($299) + Offer & Positioning Rewrite ($249)

  • Everything in the Validation Sprint: buyer defined, interview guide, landing page, pre-sale test, go/no-go report
  • Everything in the Offer & Positioning Rewrite: one buyer, one problem, one result
  • Your sales page or listing copy rewritten from what the validation interviews actually said
  • The direct fix for failure causes #1 and #3, in the right order

Launch Ready

Open with the full foundation — and a way for customers to actually find you.

$798 one-time

Launch Kit ($399) + Launch Distribution Kit ($399)

  • Everything in the Launch Kit: Google profile, social pages, one-page website, launch posts, review QR kit
  • Everything in the Launch Distribution Kit: one-channel plan, lead magnet, email capture and welcome sequence you own
  • Your first 30 days of content drafted and human-reviewed
  • Setup is the deliverable — ongoing posting is not included

Add-ons: one clearly defined extra

Select “Add to my request” and the item will appear in the quote form with your other choices. Every add-on has a specific quantity or scope, so you can see exactly what the price covers.

Where the extra traffic actually comes from

These options earn traffic in the places buyers already look — the same legitimate lanes described in Get found. No bots, no bought visitors, no fake reviews, no guaranteed #1 ranking.

GOOGLE & MAPS

Consistent everywhere you are listed

The directory cleanup and extra Google posts keep your name, address, phone, and offers identical and current wherever a nearby customer searches — the setup that search engines and AI answers pull from.

MARKETPLACES

Standing where buyers already hire

A properly set up gig on Fiverr, Upwork, or Thumbtack puts your offer in front of people who arrived ready to buy — instead of waiting for them to find a brand-new website.

YOUR OWN LIST

Reach you own, not rented

The Launch Distribution Kit (and the Launch Ready bundle) builds email capture and a welcome sequence, so marketplace and social visitors become contacts you can reach again without paying a platform.

We do not offer a low-cost “run all my social media” add-on. Full done-for-you social management normally costs $500–$2,500 a month (Contra's 2025 pricing guide, cited in our research). Offering that scope at a beginner price would not be honest. Our monthly work stays specific: your Google profile, review requests and responses, and a set number of human-reviewed posts. That defined scope is what makes the $249 Presence plan workable.

REFERRAL PROGRAM

Give $25, Get $50

New to AI, or relying on it for too much?

Market Pro helps owners who are trying AI for the first time and founders who used it to write, design, and post nearly everything. For done-for-you work, you do not need to research more tools or learn prompting. We focus on the practical questions: How will customers find the business? How will you earn real reviews? What will make the offer look credible and distinct?

FOR BEGINNERS

Done-for-you means we handle the tools

For our marketing services, you do not need to create accounts, write prompts, or learn another dashboard. Describe the business in plain language and review the finished work. If you prefer to learn the tools yourself, choose the separate AI Setup Session.

WHERE TO START

Start where customers look first

When someone nearby needs what you sell, they search Google — not your social pages. So the first move is your Google profile and your reviews: the two things a beginner can fix once and benefit from every day after.

LOW RISK

See it work before you commit

The $99 Google Pilot lets you see the work before considering a monthly plan. We improve the profile, set up the review system, and provide a plain-language report of what changed. Then you decide whether ongoing help is worthwhile.

How customers find you — and decide to choose you

AI can support work that earns legitimate traffic. It cannot manufacture customers or promise a #1 ranking. Shortcuts such as bots, bought clicks, and fake reviews create risk without building trust. Here is the work we do instead.

1 · BE FINDABLE

Show up where the search happens

A complete Google profile with the right categories, services, hours, and photos; consistent name, address, and phone everywhere; and a page that uses the exact words customers type — "AI marketing help," "get more Google reviews," the service + town. That's the setup that search engines and AI answers pull from.

2 · BE BELIEVABLE

Real reviews do the persuading

When two businesses appear side by side, people pick the one with recent, real reviews — and thoughtful replies to them. We build the request system (link + QR, sent at the right moment) and answer every review. Legitimate reviews are the review system: your actual customers, in their own words.

3 · BE IN THE ROOM

Be present where buyers already look

Your own Google profile, a clear one-page site, and listings in the places people hire from — directories and marketplaces for your trade. AI helps us draft that content quickly and keep it consistent, so a new business appears established everywhere a customer checks.

What earns real traffic

  • Helpful, specific pages that answer a real search — not keyword-stuffed filler
  • A steady flow of real customer reviews, requested properly
  • Accurate, complete profiles kept up to date month after month
  • Clear offers, real photos, and a fast way to call or book

What we won't do — because it hurts you

  • No bot traffic, click farms, or bought "visitors" — platforms detect it and it converts nobody
  • No fake, bought, or filtered reviews — against Google's rules and FTC rules, and customers spot them
  • No guaranteed #1 ranking promises — anyone selling that is selling the promise, not the result
  • No mass AI spam posts — they make a new business look less trustworthy, not more

Standing out, legitimately, is simpler: be complete where competitors are half-finished, be reviewed where they're silent, and be clear where they're generic. That's the whole strategy.

Straight answers

My business has been around for years — is this for me?

Yes. The Google Pilot is designed for established local businesses with a solid reputation but an incomplete profile, too few recent reviews, or no clear website. The $99 Google Pilot strengthens that foundation first, where nearby customers are already looking.

Are the reviews real? I don't want anything fake.

Completely real, and that's a hard rule here. We set up an easy way to ask your actual customers for reviews — a link and a QR code — and we respond to what comes in. We never buy reviews, write fake ones, or screen out unhappy customers to inflate your rating. Besides being against Google's rules, fake reviews collapse the moment a customer spots one.

I'm opening a brand-new business. Where do I start?

With the Launch Kit — $399 one-time, paid upfront. We create and optimize your Google profile, set up your Facebook and Instagram pages, build a one-page website, write your first launch posts, and set up a review QR kit for your counter — plus a short AI walkthrough so you understand what everything does. You open with the whole foundation already in place.

What is the difference between the two $99 offers?

The $99 Google Pilot is done-for-you work: we improve your Google Business Profile, set up the review-request system, and answer existing reviews. The $99 AI Setup Session is one-on-one coaching: we teach you to use AI tools in your own business during a 60-minute session, then you continue the work yourself with a written action plan and 7 days of follow-up questions. In short: Google Pilot — we do the work. AI Setup Session — we teach, you do.

Do I need to know how to use AI?

Not for done-for-you services. You describe the business in plain language, approve the finished work, and we handle the tools in between. If you want to learn how to use AI yourself, the separate AI Setup Session provides one-on-one coaching.

If AI helps make it, why not do it myself?

You can. The tradeoff is your time and the quality of the finish. Effective work still requires clear direction, fact-checking, accurate sizes and formats, and copy that sounds like your business. Market Pro handles that production and review work so you do not have to learn several tools or hire staff.

Does anything go out without me seeing it?

Never. Every ad, post, flyer, and email is sent to you for approval first, with two rounds of revisions included. If you don't like it, it doesn't run.

What does the price not cover?

Two things, always stated up front: ad spend — the money platforms like Facebook or Google charge to show your ads — and physical printing. Both are billed at cost with the number confirmed before anything runs. No surprises.

I'm not a business — can I still use Market Pro?

Yes. Individuals use us for yard-sale and event promotion, rental and for-sale listings, resumes and personal brands, fundraiser flyers, and side-hustle launches. If it needs an audience, we can market it.

How fast is turnaround?

First drafts typically land within 48 hours of a project starting. Monthly-plan work follows your content calendar, so posts and campaigns are ready before they're due — not the night before.

I started my side hustle / business using AI for everything. Why not just keep doing that?

Because AI alone stops at drafts. It doesn't set up your Google profile properly, build a review system, check its own facts, or make your offer sound different from every other AI-started business using the same prompts. Market Pro is the step up: you keep the speed, we add strategy and a human finish — so customers see an established business, not a template. See the comparison above.

Can AI put real traffic through my business, or make me show up first?

AI can help earn real traffic — by writing pages that answer the exact questions customers search, keeping your profile complete, and powering a system that brings in real reviews. It can't legitimately manufacture traffic: bot visits, click farms, and bought clicks don't become customers and can get accounts flagged. And no one can guarantee #1 on Google. What we do is the work that actually gets businesses found and chosen — complete profile, real reviews with replies, clear services, and consistent listings. See how you get found.

Can you review my current AI-made marketing?

Yes. Include the logo, posts, flyer, website copy, or Google profile with your quote request. We will explain what works, what looks generic or incorrect, and what should be fixed first. In many cases, that first step is the $99 Google Pilot: profile and review-system work completed for you.

Why do AI-started businesses fail?

The research points to two causes at the top: building before anyone agreed to pay — CB Insights found poor product-market fit in 43% of the shutdowns it analyzed — and having no way for customers to find the business (reaching customers was cited by 57% of employer firms in the Federal Reserve's 2025 report). Underneath sit the AI-specific amplifiers: generic output that looks like everyone else's, no visible human behind the business (trust fell by nearly half when content was merely suspected to be AI-made, in a Raptive study of 3,000 US adults), and inconsistency. Stated plainly: no single study surveys AI-first beginners directly, so the ranking on this page is a synthesis of general failure data, AI-specific trust and enforcement data, and practitioner post-mortems. See the full ranked list, with the fix for each cause.

Which of those fixes can you actually do for me — and which are free?

The concrete deliverables are paid one-time projects: Validation Sprint ($299), Offer & Positioning Rewrite ($249), Pricing & Unit-Economics Audit ($199), Trust Kit ($299), Launch Distribution Kit ($399), and AI Output QA Audit ($149 — a checklist review, not legal advice). Consistency, mindset, and sales confidence are not sold here — they can't be delivered or guaranteed for you — so the 90-day operating rhythm and the 10-conversations selling framework are written out free in the failure-causes section. We also never sell guaranteed customers, guaranteed rankings, or distribution outcomes: what we sell is the assets and the system.

Are there cheaper or more specific ways to start than the $99 Google Pilot?

Yes — see the traffic & revenue starters in More options. The Presence Audit is $49: a written audit of your Google profile, reviews, listings, and first impression, with the three fixes that matter most ranked for you — and the full $49 is credited toward the $99 Google Pilot if you go ahead with it, so you pay $50 more, not $99 again. Three more one-time starters target a specific job: a One-Page Website ($299) so searchers have somewhere to land, a First Ad Launch ($199 — setup, creative, copy, and targeting on one platform; you fund your own ad spend, confirmed before anything runs), and a Holiday Promo Pack ($149 — holiday hours and offer on your Google profile plus seasonal posts). If you sell on a marketplace, the Seller Launch Pack ($249) sets up your storefront on Fiverr, Etsy, eBay, or Shopify with your first five listings human-edited. None of these guarantees traffic or revenue; no honest service can. Each one is a fixed deliverable that does a specific job in getting you found and chosen.

Can I add just one extra thing, or combine offers, without a bigger monthly plan?

Yes — that's what More options is for. Bundles combine offers already on this page in one request: Found & Trusted (Google Pilot + Trust Kit, $398), Ready to Sell (Validation Sprint + Offer & Positioning Rewrite, $548), and Launch Ready (Launch Kit + Launch Distribution Kit, $798). Add-ons are single extras you can attach to any project or plan: a directory & NAP consistency cleanup ($149), a custom branded QR code Sean makes personally with your logo, colors, and chosen link ($49; included free with the Launch Kit and every monthly plan), a marketplace gig or listing setup on Fiverr, Upwork, or Thumbtack ($199), four extra scheduled Google posts ($79), extra review-response cover ($79), ten more listings ($99), or two extra revision rounds ($49). Monthly help stays deliberately narrow — Google profile, review requests, and a set number of posts — because full done-for-you social media management normally costs $500–$2,500 a month, and a cheap version of it would not be honest value.

Can I cancel a monthly package?

Anytime. There's no contract term and no cancellation fee — work already delivered is yours to keep, including all source files.
