We help owner-operated local businesses figure out what's actually worth doing with AI and marketing, and just as often, tell you what's not worth your money. No software to buy, no long contracts, no jargon.
Three steps, every time. No jargon, no surprise invoices.
A free consultation where we learn your business, your pain points, and what's already working. We tell you honestly what's worth pursuing, including when the answer is nothing.
A small setup fee to build the specific thing that addresses your real opportunity, whether that's an AI tool, a website, or a marketing system. Scoped and priced upfront.
A low monthly rate where we run and monitor what we built, with a plain-language readout each month showing what's working and what to adjust.
Two things, done together when it makes sense: honest advice on AI, and hands-on marketing that actually runs.
Readiness assessments, honest tool recommendations, and straightforward implementation, priced on judgment rather than hours worked. We'll tell you what's worth doing, and just as often, what isn't.
Most local businesses are quietly losing customers to underperforming website and ad creative without ever knowing it. We use cutting-edge AI analytics and rigorous testing to find your best-performing assets and links, so people who land on your site get the version that actually converts.
A small setup fee to get started, then a low monthly rate where we manage what we built and send you a straightforward performance readout. No long-term contract required.
We bring over 9 years of workflow production and AI-automation experience spanning FAANG-scale companies like Amazon to multi-billion-dollar game publishers like Activision and Scopely, including work on games that generated hundreds of millions to billions of dollars in revenue, plus 5+ years at big brands like Adidas, Michael Kors, and Kate Spade, giving us a firsthand understanding of customer habits and trends. On top of that, we've spent the last two years focused specifically on ad creation, analytics, and testing, learning how to reach and understand different audiences.
No products, no subscriptions to some platform we built. We're advisors first: we learn your business, figure out where the real opportunities are, and build or run the specific thing that addresses it. We also run the ongoing work if you want us to, since we're not just a consultant who leaves you with a report.
AI has changed what a small team can take on. A business with a handful of employees can now have the kind of consistency and follow-through that used to require a much bigger team. We're not here to sell AI as a concept; we're here to tell you honestly which parts of that actually apply to you.
Fair question, and often the honest answer is: you might not, not yet. If growth has come mostly from referrals and timing rather than anything deliberate, there's usually something worth exploring. If that's not you, we'll say so on the call.
Owner-operated local businesses in Sonoma County and the broader North Bay: wineries, restaurants, hospitality, retail, and other small and mid-sized operations where the owner is still closely involved in day-to-day work.
This is built to be collaborative, not prescriptive. You know your customers and your business better than we ever will, so we work with you on what actually fits how you operate, not a one-size-fits-all package.
No. Think of it as taking the repetitive, administrative weight off the people you already have, so they spend more time on the parts of the job that actually need a person.
Not at all. That's the point of hiring an advisor instead of buying software. We handle the technical side and explain everything in plain language.
The first consultation is free, always. If there's a real fit, setup typically runs a few hundred dollars depending on complexity, plus a monthly management rate starting around $150 to $300 for something straightforward, up to $500 to $800 for a multi-tool setup with more involved monitoring. Every project gets a specific number before any work starts. No long-term contract required.
Free 30-minute consultation. No pressure, no obligation, just an honest read on what's worth doing.
