I joined a non-profit board to help rebuild after declining membership rates since Covid. One of the largest factors was a redesign of our website which has expertly done by CIS Agency. We've seen an increase in membership and participation by 50%. A large contributing factor was our amazing new website and being able to accurately communicate information in a timely manner. We're very grateful to the CIS Agency for their amazing work and contribution in restoring our non profit back to pre-Covid participation rates.

If Google were a bar, my Business Profile was that drunk friend who got thrown out for pissing in the potted plants. Enter Brandon from Customers 2U Now—a digital bouncer with the skills of a tech ninja and the patience of a saint who somehow managed to drag my profile's sorry ... out of suspension and back into the land of the living.Google had my business locked up tighter than Fort Knox, but Brandon didn’t just fix the problem—he tackled it head-on with skill and determination. The man is a legend when it comes to wrangling Google glitches.If your Google Business Profile is misbehaving, I can't recommend Brandon enough. He's like the lovechild of a tech wizard and a pitbull—relentless, cunning, and a hell of a lot of fun to work with. Give him a shout, and watch your problems run for the hills!

The Prime Apes are nothing short of amazing. They bravely took over a large scale, intricate website build that we had been drastically and suddenly let down on. They were able to salvage the project despite what turned out to be poor function and design at a foundation level. Saving us time and money they creatively worked to repair or replace fundamental elements within the website build that ultimately gave us the platform to take the site to a new level. Together we then developed and brought to market a fantastic product that we were very proud of. Highly recommend The Prime Apes and Johan and Josh who worked with us on the project.

Crystal and her team are fantastic. I completed a marketing roadmap session with Crystal and so excited to implement what I learned from her. She is knowledgeable, personable, and a great teacher. She is up on the current trends of the ever evolving marketing strategy and has so much wisdom to share!
TheFormal Niche's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Crystal and Oakes Creative House on the Marketing Roadmap Strategy for The Formal Niche was a game-changer! 🙌 After more than a decade in business, I knew it was time for a fresh perspective, but figuring out where to start felt overwhelming. It’s easy to get stuck in the routine of running things day-to-day and not step back to see the bigger picture.Crystal and her team gave me exactly what I needed—a clear, layered approach to marketing that actually makes sense. Seeing the order of how everything should be planned, the steps to take, and the way it all builds on itself was so refreshing. Instead of feeling like I have to do everything at once, I now have a real strategy and a clear path forward.Honestly? I’m so ready to dive in—or just hire Crystal and her amazing team to bring it all to life! 😆 If you’re looking for real strategy that works (without the fluff or confusion), Oakes Creative House is where you need to be!

From start to finish, working with Crystal and the Creative Oakes team has been a phenomenal experience. As a female-owned small marketing team, they understand the needs of a female business like The Yoga Spa. Crystal's team took the time to get to know our brand, values, and mission, which showed in the logo, brand design, and final website they created for us. Their attention to detail and creative vision truly brought our brand to life in a digital space. Not only does our website look stunning, but it is incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate. The team at Oakes Creative House made sure to incorporate all the necessary information and features that our customers would need, such as a class schedule and online booking system integration. Working with them was a collaborative process, and they were always open to our ideas and suggestions. They kept us updated throughout the entire project and made sure to meet all deadlines. Their communication and customer service were exceptional, and they were available to answer any questions or concerns we had. Overall, we couldn't be happier with the final result. The team truly exceeded our expectations and delivered a fantastic website for The Yoga Spa. We will continue to collaborate with them for all of our marketing needs.

Kerry Jamison's Review Sourced from Google
It was a pleasure working with Robert Long on a complete revamp of our company website. Our business has used his services for decades but it was the first experience for me.Robert had the creative vision and technical expertise to make the website do everything we needed it to do for an easy-to-navigate, intuitive, user-friendly experience, all while keeping the look and feel of the brand. The final product is more than I ever imagined, providing both helpful information and a strong marketing tool.Robert was an excellent project manager and true professional, building a framework from the start, checking in throughout the process with updates, and able to flex in different aspects as our business offerings evolved. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Seller's Bay to anyone looking to build or remodel their website.
Matthew Thompson's Review Sourced from Google
Robert with Sellers Bay is all over it. I hired him to build us a new website and manage our Google face to the public. I had a meeting with him prior to start and he was all over it after that meeting. Started almost immediately and got us built up fast. Now we are getting calls based on the Google ads. We have been so pleased with his work we are going to have him move and improve our other website too. I highly recommend Robert with Sellers Bay.
Kevin Walker's Review Sourced from Google
Highly recommend Sellers Bay, very responsive, upfront about the services that were to be completed for my new website, no surprise charges or anything like that.I dealt with Robert, he was able to make the website look exactly how I wanted it. I am very picky with this type of stuff, and he never had a problem fine tuning everything that I mentioned to him Also, very honest, polite, and easy to work with. Thank You!!!

Prepare an internal decision maker and development and content capacity to accelerate the onboarding process and ensure implementation of SEO consulting services strategies.
What you need from day one:
According to a study by seoClarity, the top challenges in implementing SEO are a lack of search engine implementation resources (55%) and a lack of development or engineering resources (52.5%).
As such, by having these three items prepared, you prevent most of the SEO roadblocks.
The clearest sign that SEO consulting agency is built around your revenue goals is whether the consultant can explain which of your pages drive leads and sales before they have started working.
An SEO expert who cannot provide a clear answer is selling you packages rather than outcomes. As a result, you may end the year with more published SEO content and tracked keywords, but no measurable lift in qualified leads.
What a revenue-connected proposal looks like:
A revenue-connected proposal includes a prioritization rationale based on your current performance. It should answer: why these pages, why these keywords, why now.
Ask the experts to walk you through the decisions behind their strategies. These four questions also help surface if they have performed pre-engagement analysis on your site:
A discovery call is your lowest-cost opportunity to disqualify the wrong SEO consulting firm before money changes hands. The red flags to watch out for are consultants who lead with rankings, provide no clear process and strategy, and are unable to pivot.
The difference between a proposal built for you and one built for anyone shows up in the details: specific audit findings, named owners for every deliverable, and clear language about what happens when the engagement ends. If any of the elements below are missing, ask for them in writing before you sign.
| Proposal element | What it should include |
| Pre-engagement audit finding | Specific site and SEO issues, such as keyword targeting gaps and Web Core Vitals health. |
| Defined deliverables with clear ownership | Named team members responsible for each line item. For instance, the client is responsible for content production. |
| Measurement framework and reporting cadence | The specific metrics tracked, items included in the report, and the frequency of the report. |
| IP and data ownership language | The produced content, technical work, data, and account should all belong to you. |
| Exit clause | The notice period, offboarding process, and what happens to ongoing work once the contract is terminated. |
| Defined escalation path | An SEO specialist in a management or leadership position who you can directly contact when you are dissatisfied with the results or the communication of the current team. |
While SEO is a long-term strategy, you should receive a concrete strategy in your first 3 months, initial movement in months 3-6, and revenue-connected SEO before month 12. If nothing has moved by the fourth month, you should start investigating the work of the SEO consulting company.
Here is what you can expect in the first 12 months of your engagement:
| Timeline | What could happen |
| Months 1-3 |
|
| Months 3-6 |
|
| Months 6-12 |

An SEO consulting company offers strategic expertise in a particular field or vertical, such as eCommerce SEO, but relies on your team for execution. Conversely, an SEO agency provides strategy and execution in one package but lacks the specialized depth of a consultant.
Hire SEO consulting services when:
Hire an SEO agency when:
The decision ultimately depends on your scope, accountability, and day-to-day management.
Consider a flat monthly fee for predictable work, and an hourly consulting fee for occasional input rather than day-to-day execution.
The table below compares both models across the decisions that matter most: predictability, risk, and fit.
| Flat monthly retainer | Hourly consulting fee | |
| Pros | Predictable for budgeting and provides a clear deliverable structure | Flexible scope and pricing that adjusts to your actual needs |
| Risks | Scope creep: consultant underdelivers and hides behind the retainer, or the package no longer meets your expanding needs | Difficult to manage, as hours can be consumed by calls and reports rather than high-value work |
| Best for | Businesses with a well-defined, recurring scope of work | Businesses that need occasional expert input rather than ongoing execution |
Another alternative is to start your engagement with the SEO consultant on an hourly fee, when you need a high-level strategy the most. Then shift a monthly retainer for day-to-day management and execution of SEO work.
Most SEO retainers are priced for a narrower scope than buyers assume. The gap between what the proposal covers and what the work requires only becomes visible after the contract is signed. Before you agree to a monthly fee, ask your consultant to confirm in writing whether each of the following is included or billed separately:
Ask questions that pressure-test judgment, not just credentials. SEO consulting companies who have genuinely done this work will answer with specificity. One who hasn't will answer with confidence that falls apart under follow-up.
Here are 8 questions to help evaluate the SEO services company's capabilities:
Rankings and total traffic volume are not business measurements. Any reporting framework built around these two metrics alone shows your activity, not impact. Insist on a dashboard that connects organic search performance directly to revenue outcomes, including the following:
According to FirstPageSage, the average ROI for technical SEO is 117% with break-even at month six, while thought leadership SEO reaches 748% ROI within nine months. These benchmarks are what a properly measured campaign should be able to work toward.
Realistically, you should start seeing initial movement after 3-6 months of implementing the SEO consultant's strategies. By the 6-12-month mark, you should record sustained, measurable results, such as an increase in qualified leads and organic-attributed revenue.
The final timeline of results will depend on:
Below is an estimated timeline on what to expect during your engagement:
Consider switching SEO specialists when there is no measurable improvement within 3-6 months, without clear explanations and action plans on how to resolve the situation. Another signal is when you observe repeated behavioral problems, including a lack of transparency and communication.
Here are some signs that it is time to leave your current SEO engagement:
