A five-minute conversation, at your pace

DENVER SEO, THE PITCHLet’s talk about the phone.

Not rankings, not traffic, not reports. The phone. How often it rings with a new customer is the only number that pays for everything else. This walks you through how we make it ring more, and ends with one question.

Every slide asks you something. Answer honestly; nothing here is recorded.

The odds, honestly

Half of new businesses are gone by year five. The reason is almost always money.

You have heard “nine out of ten fail.” That is a startup myth. The federal numbers are still sobering: about one in five new businesses closes in its first year, roughly half by year five, and two-thirds by year ten. And the factor present in most failures is cash flow, which is a polite word for not enough sales.

Cash flow←Sales←Customers←Being found + converting

So this is not a conversation about rankings. It is about beating the odds: a business that is easy to find and easy to say yes to stays capitalized, and a capitalized business gets to keep growing for years.

The real numbers, not the folklore

This is about beating the odds.

You have heard “nine out of ten businesses fail.” That is startup folklore. The government data is harder to argue with and still sobering: about one in five new businesses is gone within a year, half within five years, two-thirds within ten.

The most common reason in failure postmortems is running out of cash. Undercapitalization means the business does not have enough money coming in. What feeds the money? Sales. What feeds sales? Being found and being chosen. That is the whole reason marketing exists, and it is the part we do.

Found→Chosen→Sales→Capitalized→Still here in year ten

Second question

How would you feel if you spent money on SEO every month and got nothing for it?

That happened to us, with real, top-rated Denver agencies. Roughly thirty thousand dollars, holidays our founder could barely provide for his kids, and a folder of reports. It is the reason this company is conversion-focused: the goal is not to rank you, it is to get you more customers. Ranking is how; customers are why.

So we built the thing we wish we had been sold: search that gets you found, a site that gets you the call, and reporting that counts the calls.

Third question, the important one

What would an extra 20 to 30 customers a week do for your bottom line?

Move the sliders. This is your math, not ours, and nothing is sent anywhere. How many new customers a week do you actually want?

Then ask the harder version: what is every week without them costing you right now?

Fourth question

Is it important to you to work with a company that has a great reputation and advanced SEO and AI-search skills?

Run the search yourself: our founder’s own company holds the map pack, the first organic result and a third listing for a competitive Denver keyword, and is named by Grok on national terms. The case study is here, with the results pages recreated.

How we do it

Every channel a customer uses, pointed at your phone.

Google search and the Maps pack for people who search. AI answers for people who ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity instead. A website built to turn the visit into a call. Reviews and consistency so the machines and the humans both trust you. And, for members, a network of local groups with more than 200,000 people in them.

Multi-channel is not a buzzword here. It is just every door a customer can walk through, opened.

What it costs, honestly

Some agencies start at $5,000 a month. Ours start much lower.

$3,209 / moAverage agency retainer across 439 providers (Ahrefs survey). Clutch reports a similar monthly average and a $37,158 average one-off project. Many agencies bill AI search optimization separately on top.Published third-party figures. Checkable.
$500 – $3,000 / moMost of our campaigns, sized to your budget and market, with AI search work included. A $100 entry option for one monthly deliverable. VIP members get member pricing on everything we build.Lean operation: no account-manager layers, no downtown lease in your invoice.

We do not publish a package because a roofer in Arvada and a law firm downtown do not need the same thing. We quote after a twenty-minute call, and we will tell you if your budget cannot win your market. Full reasoning on the pricing page.

NEXT · 8 OF 9What we promise→

What we promise, and what we do not

A partnership to surpass your goals, not a vendor.

We do not guarantee rankings, traffic or results. Nobody honest can, and Google says so in its own hiring guidance. What we do promise: we put your business first, we work on it as if it were our own company, we bring every tool and skill we have, and we genuinely try to grow it. Conversion is the goal every month, because more customers is your goal, so it is ours.

You keep the audit findings whether or not you hire us. There is no long contract to start. If we are not the right fit, we say so on the call.
