You get a report. You keep it.

We look at your shop from the outside, the way a customer does. No login, no call, no obligation. Then we write down what we found.

What we look at

Why any of this matters.

What the report says

Every finding is written the same way. What we saw, what it means, what we would do. No score out of a hundred. No slide deck.

Sample written reportNot a real shop
  1. 47 Google reviews. The most recent is eight months old.

    Nobody is asking. The asking stopped when the job got busy.

    We runOne review ask, sent after a job is paid. Not a review farm.

  2. Your contact form posts to a shared inbox.

    A Saturday enquiry sits until Monday. By then she has booked whoever wrote back.

    We runForms, calls and texts answered on your own number, booked when your rules are clear and sent to your phone when they are not.

  3. Your Business Profile lists three service areas. Your site lists eleven.

    Eight towns cannot find you in the map pack, which is where the work actually comes from.

    We runListings brought into line with what you actually cover, then kept that way.

  4. Invoices go out from your phone, in the evening, by hand.

    The unpaid pile grows because chasing it is nobody's job.

    We runInvoice chase out of your existing billing. You keep the account.

Sample findings, shortened. A real report runs longer and is specific to your shop.

Ask for it.

Give us the trade, the town and your website. That is enough. You get the report back whether or not you ever speak to us.
