How It Works

Own the business, not a job

A digital marketing company you actually own — run from anywhere.

No storefront. No staff to inherit. No equipment. You own the company, the brand and the client relationships outright. This is not a franchise: no franchise fees, no royalties, no long-term contract.

The model

Four steps, and the technical work is handled

You run the business and the relationships. Unless you want to learn the technical side — and you can — we deliver it under your brand.

1

License the platform

Proprietary SEO software, full sales training, and a website built and branded for your company — not ours.

2

Sign your clients

Local business owners who need to rank on Google, Yahoo and Bing. Our team helps you close your first several.

3

We do the work

Optimization, content, tracking and reporting, delivered under your brand for a flat monthly cost per client.

4

You keep the margin

You set your own pricing. The spread between what you charge and what delivery costs is yours, every month.

The arithmetic

Run the numbers yourself

Conservative assumptions, stated in full below. Move the slider and watch what happens.

4 clients
Client billings$6,000
Delivery cost−$1,000
SBA loan payment−$1,800
Your monthly income$3,200
Billings$6,000
Costs & loan$2,800
Yours to keep$3,200

Assumes a client billed at $1,500 per month with a $250 per month delivery cost, and a $150,000 SBA loan at approximately $1,800 per month. Figures show business cash flow before your personal taxes and living expenses. Loan amount, structure and approval depend on individual qualification and lender review — nothing on this page is a guarantee of financing.

The program is approved for SBA Express lending. Qualification is individual and determined by the lender, not by us. We will tell you honestly and early if it looks unlikely to work for your situation.

Two ways in

Buy the revenue, or build it

Acquire an existing book

Purchase a business already carrying paying clients and recurring revenue from day one.

  • Immediate cash flow
  • Established client relationships
  • Priced near 3x recurring revenue, plus the licensing package
  • Higher capital requirement
What most people choose

Start with the license and build

Take the platform, the training and the support, and build your own client base with our sales help.

  • Substantially less capital
  • SBA Express financing available
  • Every client you add is one you own outright
  • You build the revenue rather than buy it

We will walk you through both and show you the arithmetic on each. Most people conclude that building costs less than buying — and we would rather tell you that before you write a check than after.

Honest comparison

Why this is not a white-label reseller deal

You own the business

Not a reseller agreement someone can cancel. Your company, your brand, your clients, your equity.

28 years, one team

The same head technician has run delivery since 1998. Most resellers subcontract to whoever is cheapest this quarter.

A documented record

292 owners launched across 12 years, a 100% success rate, and a money-back guarantee.

It is financeable

The program is approved for SBA Express lending. You cannot finance a reseller subscription.
