  • Site, traffic, funnel, ad account and competitors, read by the people who do the work.

  • A 45-minute call to walk through it.
  • Credited against the first retainer month if you continue.

About The Foothold audit

Every engagement starts with the same product: we read your whole board. The site, the traffic, the funnel, the ad account if you have one, and what competitors rank for and why. You get a written assessment listing what we would do in priority order with honest effort estimates, and it is yours to act on with or without us. If the answer is that you do not need us, the report says so.

Who it is for

A business already paying an agency and wanting an independent read of the work, or one deciding where the next $5,000 a month should go.

After you pay

What happens next.

Pay on the door or ask first. We confirm the same working day, send a short access list, and the assessment lands within two weeks of access.

Start a conversation

Ask about it.

A short note is enough. We say whether the Foothold audit is the right first move, and if it is not, what we would do instead. We reply the same working day, Monday to Friday.

Prefer to talk first? Book a 30-minute fit call. Thirty minutes on Google Meet, Monday to Friday, to find out whether we are the right shop for the job. No deck, no pitch.

We'll only use this to reply and to send the occasional update. No rented lists, easy out.
