Frequently asked question · Local Businesses
What do I have to do, and what does it cost?
You give us one onboarding call, access to your website and analytics, and a yes on the plan we propose. After that, a monthly call. Managed GEO starts at $990 a month, and the final scope depends on how many questions and competitors we track, so it is set after the free audit.
Your three inputs
The first is the onboarding call, where we learn your trade, your city, the services you want to be known for, and the competitors that keep getting named. The second is access: your website, so our team can ship the fixes and publish the pages rather than sending you a to-do list, and your analytics, so we can see what the site already does. The third is a yes on the plan we propose after the audit. Each new page is written and checked by a person on our team before it goes on your site, and after the plan is approved the writing stays with us.
After that, one call a month. We go through what shipped, who got named, and what ships next, in plain language. The platform login is there if you want to look between calls, and the work does not wait on you if you do not.
How the price is set
Managed GEO starts at $990 a month. What moves it above the starting figure is scope: how many of your customers' questions we run every day, how many competitors we track alongside you, and how many pages the audit says need work. None of that is known before the free audit, so the proposal comes after it, with the number in it. The retainer covers the team and the platform together, billed month to month, with no setup fee and no separate subscription to renew.
When it is a different engagement
Managed GEO is built for a business with one city to win. If you run dozens of locations across regions, say so on the first call: that is sometimes a consulting engagement instead, quoted per engagement, with your own teams doing the shipping.
