Services

Three paths to an operation that runs itself.

Whether you need to be found, get organized, or stay ahead of the competition — every engagement starts with a conversation, not a contract.

Pricing, in plain numbers.

Most consultants make you book a call to find out what it costs. Hand over your email. Sit through a demo. Get added to a newsletter. All to learn whether you can even afford the conversation.

I’m not going to do that to you.

Below is what each tier actually runs. Real ranges. Real numbers. The range exists because no two businesses have the same shape — but the band is honest, and you’ll never get bait-and-switched into something pricier.

If your situation fits a tier, you’ll know what you’re committing to before we ever talk. If it needs custom scoping, I’ll say so on the call. Either way, the consult is free and there’s no pitch waiting on the other end of it.

Get Found

For businesses ready to be seen online

76%
of people who search for something nearby on their phone visit a business within 24 hours. If they can’t find you, that visit goes to your competitor.
Think with Google

A real website built for your specific business. Not a template. Not a DIY page builder. Optimized to show up when people search for what you do.

One-time project — no retainer required.

Professional Website

Mobile-ready, fast, SEO-optimized. Built for your business, not from a template.

Google Business Profile

Set up and optimized so you appear in local search and Google Maps.

Local SEO Foundation

Search engine submission, keyword optimization, and structured data markup.

Analytics Foundation

Google Tag Manager, GA4 with conversion tracking, Microsoft Clarity session recordings, Search Console, and UTM redirect routes. You own the stack and can add future tracking tools (Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, etc.) yourself without touching code.

First Year Hosting

No surprise bills in year one. After that, you choose: we keep hosting it for $25/month, or we transfer the site to your own account at no charge.

Investment
$1,500–$3,000 — one-time project

What flexes the range: number of pages, scheduling/booking integrations, and how much existing brand material we have to work with.

After year 1: transfer the site to your own hosting at no charge, or we continue for $25/month — covers hosting, security monitoring, and 1 small content change per month. We remind you 60 days out — no auto-renewal traps.

Already using Vagaro, Mindbody, or Acuity?

Keep the booking tool. We build the site that finally gets it found.

Your booking software is a great cash register, but Google can’t read what’s inside a booking widget, and your booking page lives on the vendor’s domain, not yours. As part of Get Found, we build a custom site you own and embed the booking tool you already use, so your calendar, payments, and client list never move.

Get Organized

For growing businesses drowning in manual work

17 hrs
wasted every month by 68% of small businesses on manual workarounds for problems that should already be solved.
Trustpilot Reviews, 2026

You bought the software but nothing connects. A two-week sprint targeting your biggest operational bottleneck. One problem, one fix, one working system.

Stackable — run additional sprints as your business grows.

Bottleneck Diagnosis

We find the one thing that is bleeding the most time and money. No guessing.

System Design & Setup

Select, configure, and integrate the right tools. CRM, scheduling, invoicing, workflows — whatever the bottleneck demands.

Knowledge Documentation

Process walkthroughs captured and turned into SOPs your team can follow from day one.

Team Training & Handoff

Your people learn the system. Documentation and training included so it sticks after I leave.

Post-Sprint Support

Two weeks of follow-up support after delivery. Questions, adjustments, troubleshooting — covered.

Investment
$2,500–$5,000 — two-week sprint

What flexes the range: scope of the bottleneck (one workflow vs. multiple), team size we’re documenting around, and whether we’re integrating new tools or fixing what you’ve already got.

The promise: Fixed price quoted before we start. No hourly creep, no surprise change orders.

Get Ahead

For established businesses ready for operational intelligence

“Stuck in a cycle”
of pushing for more work but unable to complete the work they already have. The systems that got you here won't get you there.
r/smallbusiness

An ongoing partnership. Weekly operational intelligence, strategic recommendations, and continuous optimization — so your business stays sharp without you being everywhere at once.

Month-to-month — no long-term contracts.

Related: why your business stopped growing (and why working harder won’t fix it).

Weekly Intelligence Brief

Market signals, competitor moves, and customer pain points surfaced and delivered with recommended actions.

Content Drafts

3-4 draft content pieces per week, aligned to what your market is actually talking about.

Monthly Strategy Call

30-minute review of what is working, what is not, and what to prioritize next month.

Weekly Attribution Intelligence

I read your GA4, Clarity, and conversion data every week. You get a 1-page report showing which content drove business and what to change next week — you don't need to read the dashboards, I read them for you.

Monthly Session-Recording Review

I watch 10-15 Clarity recordings of real users on your site, flag friction points, and recommend specific fixes.

Quarterly Deep-Dive

60-90 minute session with a written roadmap update. Recalibrate priorities for the quarter ahead.

System Optimization

Ongoing recommendations to improve the tools and workflows already in place.

Investment
$1,500–$2,500/month — ongoing retainer

What flexes the range: dashboard complexity, review cadence, and how much hands-on operational work is included.

The promise: Month-to-month. We recommend committing to 90 days because real operational change doesn’t show up in week three. But there’s no contract minimum and no cancellation fee — leave any time, no clawback.

Monthly Maintenance

Add ongoing support to any tier

Systems decay without attention. Sites go stale, tools drift out of alignment, and small problems become expensive ones. Monthly Maintenance keeps everything running so you don't have to think about it.

Website Updates

Content changes, updates, and adjustments — up to 4 hours per month.

System Monitoring

Health checks on your tools and integrations. Issues caught before they cost you.

Monthly Performance Report

Clear snapshot of how things are running. No jargon, just what matters.

Quarterly Strategy Check-In

30-minute call to review performance and plan adjustments.

Investment
$400–$600/month — explicit-scope retainer

What flexes the range: what’s in scope (site updates, security monitoring, performance reporting, light analytics review).

The promise: Scope is documented in writing and locked. If we need to expand it, that’s a conversation — not a surprise line item.

Common Questions

Questions we hear from small business owners.

A small business operations consultant audits how your business runs day-to-day, finds the bottlenecks costing you time and revenue, and builds the systems to remove them. At kwick.consulting that means three concrete deliverables: a web presence that gets you found, a tightened operations workflow, and ongoing intelligence to spot problems before they cost you money.

Engagement size varies by package. Get Found is a one-time project at $1,500–$3,000. Get Organized is a fixed-scope two-week sprint at $2,500–$5,000. Get Ahead is an ongoing monthly retainer at $1,500–$2,500. Most small businesses invest between $2,500 and $9,000 over the first 90 days, with ROI typically measured in recovered hours per week and recovered revenue from missed leads.

Yes. The work is primarily remote, and we serve small businesses across Eastern North Carolina and beyond. In-person visits happen for clients within driving distance of the Crystal Coast when the engagement benefits from on-site time.

The pattern is consistent across industries: owner-operator businesses in trades, home services, real estate, fitness, hospitality, and direct sales who have hit a ceiling because every decision still routes through one person. If revenue stalled while hours kept climbing, that's the signal.

Most AI consulting sells tools. Operations-first AI consulting fixes the workflow first, then layers AI on top of cleaned-up processes. The wrong order is automating chaos. The right order is documenting how the work actually flows, removing the bottlenecks, and only then introducing AI where it pays back hours per week or recovers measurable revenue.

Not Sure Which Fits?

Start where you are.

Every business is different. Here is the simplest way to think about it.

Get Found

You need a web presence that looks professional and shows up when people search for what you do.

Get Organized

You have clients and revenue but your tools, workflows, and documentation are holding you back.

Get Ahead

You have the basics covered but need ongoing intelligence and optimization to stay competitive.

Every conversation starts with value, not a pitch.

Whether you know exactly what you need or you are still figuring it out — the first step is the same. A real conversation about your business.
