What makes us different

Three ways to do marketing.
Only one builds capability.

Here's how we stack up against the two most common alternatives.

Model One-to-many, not personalised Done with you Done for you
Cost Cheaper, but generic One-off investment Expensive retainers
Strategy No custom strategy Bespoke strategy Cookie cutter
Creative Advisory only Mass-produced with AI, still high quality Low volume, high price
Flexibility Fixed class times In your own time Rigid contracts
Support In-person only, no replays Holistic, ongoing option Only while you pay

Match the page to the search. Prove you're the answer.

Modern search rewards the page that mirrors the query and backs it up. You'll learn to echo the searcher's words in your title, meta and headings, then prove it with the structure Google and AI trust, schema, FAQs and real E-E-A-T.

1 The search

A real question, typed into Google or asked of AI.

Best Commercial Coffee Machines, Tested & Ranked (2026)
Hands-on reviews from 12 years in hospitality fit-outs. Specs, pricing and who each one suits.

Your title and meta mirror the exact search.

Schema FAQ E-E-A-T

Headings match, and structure proves it.

That match, query → title & meta → headings → structured proof, is what ranks you on Google and gets you cited in AI answers like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews. It's the core of what you'll build, powered by the keyword research tools you'll learn to drive.

One page isn't enough. You need the web around it.

Google and AI don't just check the page, they check what surrounds it. You'll build a network of supporting content that proves each letter of E-E-A-T.

We also teach…

Focused on search here, but we train across every channel, each 1-on-1 inside your own accounts.

Questions, answered straight.

What does it cost?

It's a one-off investment, priced by program and scope. You'll get the exact number on the intro call, before you commit to anything. No retainers, no lock-in contracts.

How much time do I need each week?

One session with us each week, plus a couple of hours applying it inside your own account. It's your program, in your own time, and we fit around your schedule.

Do I need to be technical?

No. If you can work a spreadsheet and an inbox, you're ready. We build everything with you, step by step, inside your own accounts.

Do I need any AI subscriptions?

Only for the AI enhancements. Building creative and landing pages with AI, and using AI to help manage your platforms (Meta only for now), runs on a Claude subscription. We'll get you set up during the program.

What if I'm starting from scratch?

Completely fine, plenty of our clients do. The program is built around your starting point, whether that's zero or improving something you already run.

What happens after the 8 weeks?

Everything stays with you: the accounts, the campaigns, the skills. We leave you capable, and we're on call whenever you want a second opinion or a hand with something new.

Who is this NOT for?

If you want marketing done for you without being involved, training isn't it, and we'll tell you that on the call. This is for people who want to own it.
