Five scoped builds. One kind of work.

Most businesses come to me because one thing feels broken: the books, the website, whether AI can even find them, the way an order moves through the shop. Each of these is a discrete build with a clear start and finish. You commission it, I hand it over, and it's yours to keep. No retainers, no hours on a meter.

Operations Health Check

A structured read on where the business actually stands: the books, the systems, the owner-dependency, the things a future buyer will scrutinize. Start with the free fifteen-minute version, or have me run the full diagnostic.

  • What's working, what's costing you, what to fix first
  • A plain-language report you can act on
  • No obligation to do anything else

GEO / AI-Visibility Audit

Can AI search find and recommend your business? A fixed-scope audit of what the engines actually see, the fixes that make you visible, and a measured number you can re-test, not a vibe.

  • Machine-readable content, schema, llms.txt, crawler access
  • A measured AI share-of-voice, with a confidence interval
  • $1,500 baseline · $2,500 with the measurement rigor
03 · The core

Operations Build

The backend that makes a business run without you: clean books, documented systems, single points of failure designed out. A scoped build with a defined end, never an open retainer. The systems we build belong to you.

  • Clean up the books and the reporting
  • Document the systems and remove single points of failure
  • Build a cadence the business can keep without you
04 · For a real exit

Sale-Readiness Pack

For owners with a sale on the horizon. The focused push to make a business transferable: documented operations, financials a buyer can diligence, and the key-person risk designed out. Built to hand to your broker, CEPA, or a buyer's diligence team.

  • Operations documented to a transferable standard
  • Clean financials and a defensible owner hand-off plan
  • Runs alongside your broker or CEPA, not in their lane
05 · Everything else

Custom Build

For the situations that don't fit a box: a platform migration, an inventory mess, a transition nobody planned for. We scope it together. This is also where website and e-commerce builds live when getting the storefront right is part of getting the operation right.

  • Scoped to the actual problem in front of you
  • Website & e-commerce builds, when they fit the work
  • Clear start, clear finish

GEO / AI-Visibility Audit

Can AI find your business, and is it telling people the right thing?

More and more buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, or Google's AI for a recommendation before they click a single search result. If the engines can't read your site, or read it wrong, you're invisible at the exact moment someone's deciding. Most small-business sites are: the content is locked in images, the structured data is missing, the AI crawlers are blocked at the door.

The audit finds out where you actually stand, fixes what's fixable, and hands you the part most "audits" skip: a measured number you can re-test. Most audits give you a score the engines quietly change next month. I give you a number with a confidence interval and the specific levers that moved it, so a quarter later you can prove it worked.

How builds work

Scoped to the work, not sold by the hour

What you're paying for is the judgment about what your business actually needs, and a finished result you own, not the hours of work the tools now do in minutes. So every build is scoped to the outcome we agree on and quoted upfront, with a clear start and a clear finish.

Pricing

I don't sell hours, and I don't do open retainers. Each build is scoped to the outcome we agree on and quoted upfront. The GEO audit is fixed ($1,500 / $2,500); website builds are quoted by scope (see the Website Design page for ranges); the Operations Build and Sale-Readiness work are scoped to what you're actually dealing with. On our first call we'll land on the right number, with a clear start and a defined finish.

How we start

A free thirty-minute discovery call. No deck, no pitch. We talk through where the business is, whether the work is a fit, and what the build would actually cover: start, finish, and what you'll own at the end.

A note on case studies

Most of my completed work so far is operations and website builds (Jersey Girl Soap, and a handful of others), plus a live GEO rebuild I can walk you through. The exit-readiness graduations are in progress now, and I'll publish them here as they close. I'd rather show you real ones than dress up the work I've done.

Not sure which one fits?
