Foundation

Speed, Core Web Vitals, SEO basics — the baseline that decides whether anything else even matters.

AI search readiness

Robots.txt, schema, content structure — how visible you are to ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews.

Local & conversion

NAP consistency, tap-to-call, the math behind whether traffic becomes customers.

Common questions

Things worth asking.

What's the difference between Trailhead and a strategy audit?

Trailhead is the instant version — 30 automated checks, free PDF in your inbox in about 20 seconds. The strategy audit is the personal version — I review your site, search visibility, paid campaigns, and analytics myself, and send back a written priority plan. Most people run Trailhead first, then book a strategy audit if they want me to walk through what to do about it.

Can I run Trailhead before requesting a strategy audit?

Yes — and most people do. Trailhead's PDF gives you a fast read on where your site stands across 30 dimensions. If after seeing it you want me to dig deeper and tell you which findings matter for your business, that's what the strategy audit is for. Paste the Trailhead diagnostic id in the strategy audit form and I'll start from your scores.

Is there an obligation?

No. The audit is free and yours to keep. If the findings point toward work I can help with and you want to explore that, we talk about it. If not, you use the recommendations however you like — with your current team, another marketer, or on your own.

How long does Trailhead take?

About 20 seconds. You enter your URL, the audit runs in your browser, and you get a PDF report by email and on a results page you can share.

How long does the strategy audit take?

One to two weeks from when you complete the follow-up questionnaire. Smaller sites and simpler setups land closer to one week. Bigger sites, larger ad accounts, or more complex tracking take closer to two. I'll let you know up front what to expect.

What will you need access to for the strategy audit?

For the website and SEO portions, just the URL — same as Trailhead. For paid ads, read-only access to your Google Ads or Meta Ads Manager account makes the review much sharper — I'll send specific instructions once we're rolling. For analytics, read-only access to GA4. All access stays read-only and can be revoked whenever you like.

Do you work with businesses outside California?

Yes. Most of my clients are in California, but the work is remote-friendly and I've worked with businesses across the US. If you're a good fit for what I do, location isn't a limitation.
