Local visibility strategist
Wherever they search,
you're the answer.
I help local service businesses, multi-location brands, and agencies show up everywhere a customer searches — Google Maps, organic results, Google Ads, and the answers AI gives.
One system, four channels, built together — not a main service with add-ons bolted on.
What's included
Every place a customer searches. Covered.
Every channel built and managed together as one system — not a main service with add-ons bolted on.
Local SEO
On-page, technical, and citation work built around the searches that turn into calls and bookings in your service area.
Google Business Profile
Categories, services, posts, and photos, actively managed — your profile is often a customer's first impression of you.
Google Ads
Paid search campaigns built to put you at the top the moment someone searches — covering the gap while organic visibility builds.
AI search optimization
Structuring your content and reputation so ChatGPT, Google's AI Overviews, and similar tools recommend you by name.
Web design
Fast, conversion-focused websites built to hold up under search and ad traffic, not just look good sitting still.
Conversion rate optimization
Turning the traffic every other channel sends into more calls, form fills, and booked jobs — testing and refining what actually converts.
Local link building
Relevant, local, and industry links earned the right way — the trust signal search engines and AI tools both rely on.
Review generation & reputation management
Systems for earning more reviews and responding well, so your reputation becomes an advantage everywhere it's seen.
Directory creation & optimization
Consistent, accurate listings across the directories that feed local search, maps, and AI data sources.
Reporting & tracking
Clear visibility into calls, rankings, ad performance, and AI mentions, so you can see the whole system working.
How it works
Three steps. Every channel, at once.
Audit
I look at where you show up today — Google Maps, organic rankings, Google Ads, and AI search results — and show you exactly where you're invisible.
Build
We build out every channel together — profile, content, campaigns, links, and AI-ready structure — so you're covered everywhere at once, not one piece at a time.
Grow
Ongoing management across every channel compounds month over month, with reporting so you can see it happening everywhere.
Results

"Jake fixed our Google Business Profile in a week and we were getting calls we'd never gotten before. Simple as that."
Case studies
Systems built, results delivered.

FAQ
Common questions
How long until I see results?
Most clients see measurable movement in local rankings and Google Business Profile visibility within 60–90 days. Link building and competitive markets can take longer — I'll give you a realistic timeline in your audit.
Do you work with my industry?
If you're a local service business, a multi-location brand, or an agency managing local clients, yes. I've worked across home services, healthcare, legal, and retail.
Is Google Ads spend included in the price?
Management is part of the same engagement — ad spend itself goes directly to Google, separate from the fee, so you always know exactly what's paying for clicks and what's paying for the system running behind them.
Do I need a contract?
No long-term lock-in. Engagements start with a 3-month minimum so the strategy has time to show results, then continue month-to-month — cancel anytime with 30 days' notice.
