01Local Pack + Maps

Be found where the decision starts.

We review how your business appears on Google Maps and in the Local Pack for relevant customer searches. Profile accuracy, local relevance and competitor context show where an enquiry may go elsewhere.

Illustrative Local Pack: a service-near-me search, three business listings and matching A, B and C pins on a street map.

02AI Search Visibility

See where AI finds you. And where it does not.

We test relevant customer questions in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google’s AI experiences. We record the answers, cited sources and missing context, then identify useful work on your content, entities and evidence. Results are a point-in-time sample, not a visibility guarantee.

Illustrative AI search: a customer question leads to an answer with citations connected to a service page, business details and independent evidence.

  • Entity clarity

Evidence of where your business appears, with recommendations grounded in the sources we observe.

03Organic Search

Find the searches worth earning.

We compare your current search presence with the high-intent questions your customers ask. Technical access, commercial pages and useful content are assessed together, so the recommendations connect visibility to enquiries rather than vanity rankings.

Illustrative organic results for a customer search: a relevant service page, useful buying guide and clear answer connect search intent to a qualified visit.

04Paid Ads

Follow the money to the customer.

If you are running ads, we review the available Google Ads, paid social and ChatGPT Ads campaign data against your CRM or sales records, as applicable. Cost per customer, payback and attribution matter more than a healthy-looking click report. Where the data cannot support a conclusion, we say so.

05Website + Conversion Path

Turn the visit into the next action.

Organic search, AI discovery, Google Ads, paid social and ChatGPT Ads can all bring people to your website. We trace each relevant path through the landing page, call, form or booking, then into lead follow-up and the customer record. Mobile performance, message relevance and working measurement show where the journey breaks.

Organic search, AI discovery, Google Ads, paid social and ChatGPT Ads feed the website, then a call, form or booking, a qualified lead and a customer.

03 · Follow-up call

The conversation

A 30-minute call after you have read the audit. Ask questions, clarify the recommendations and discuss whether—and how—to proceed. No automatic move into a paid engagement.

Your questions. Answered directly.

A bounded process

From kickoff call to delivery,
in 7 business days.

One short kickoff, then the work. A defined delivery date and a document worth the time you put into it.

  1. We confirm what your business does, who your customers are, what you have tried and what success looks like. Then we request the relevant account access through platform permissions—not shared passwords.

  2. We review all five areas, test relevant AI-search questions and connect available campaign, analytics and sales data. Missing access or incomplete tracking is documented, not replaced with a guess.

  3. The evidence becomes a written audit. Recommendations have a specific action, an order of priority and an indication of effort. Where follow-on work is appropriate, we explain the scope to investigate before pricing implementation.

  4. Your PDF and 15-minute Loom arrive together. We schedule the 30-minute follow-up for after you have read the document, so the conversation can focus on questions and next steps.

Four stages. One clear delivery date. Seven business days from kickoff; required access is confirmed before we begin.

After the audit

The audit is yours.
The next move is too.

If you don’t hire us

Put the document to work.

There is no obligation to turn the audit into a MOST project. It is written to stand on its own.

  • Give it to your internal team. A practical order of work for the next quarter.
  • Brief another agency. The priorities, constraints and evidence in one place.
  • Evaluate vendor proposals. Does the plan address the work that matters?
  • Challenge bad spend. Review tools or campaigns that are not earning their place.
  • Bring it to leadership. A written basis for the next budget or planning conversation.

If you do hire us

The price comes before any work starts.

If the audit surfaces work worth doing, we define the project and agree the scope, timeline and fixed price in writing. You decide whether to proceed.

Different work, different starting point. The free audit is an opportunity review for web, search and paid growth. Detailed business-system and complex AI requirements are mapped in a separately paid System Mapping Sprint before a larger build is quoted.

Ad spend, hosting, software and model usage are separate operating costs. MOST does not charge a percentage of media spend. Optional ongoing programs are month-to-month, with a defined scope and 14 days’ notice to end.

Who the audit is for

Clarity before you
spend more.

A good fit

  • An established business serving Metro Vancouver.
  • Real acquisition needs: visibility, enquiries, conversion or attribution.
  • An owner who wants the evidence before committing more budget.
  • A team willing to provide relevant access and act on useful findings.

Probably not the right starting point

  • A pre-revenue startup looking for free strategy.
  • A very small budget that cannot support the likely recommendations.
  • A business outside the free audit’s Metro Vancouver focus.
  • Someone looking only for confirmation that everything is already fine.

Before you start

Good questions.
Direct answers.

If yours is not here, ask us. Everything gets answered before the audit starts.

Is it really free? What's the catch?

It really is free. We use the audit to decide whether there is work worth taking on. Sometimes the fit is not right; you still keep the document. The audit is intentionally bounded to seven business days, so we can run a few per quarter without outsourcing it. If there is no capacity in the current quarter, we will say so and offer the next available period. There is no automatic conversion to paid work.

What does the audit actually cover?

Five areas: Google Maps and Local Pack visibility, organic search, AI-search exposure, paid-ad efficiency if you are running ads, and the conversion paths on your website. We test relevant questions in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google’s AI experiences, recording what we observe rather than promising a fixed result. The findings become prioritized recommendations in a 12–20-page written audit, with a 15-minute Loom walkthrough from the founder.

How long does it take?

Seven business days from the kickoff call, with required access confirmed before we begin. You receive the written document and Loom video together. We arrange a 30-minute follow-up after you have read the audit. There is no pressure to hire us; you can use the recommendations to fix things internally first.

What happens after the audit?

You can implement the recommendations yourself, give them to an internal team, brief another agency, or ask MOST to scope the next step. If you hire us for a project, the deliverables and fixed price are agreed before work begins. Optional ongoing services are a separate decision with a defined monthly scope. Nothing starts automatically.

Who is the audit NOT for?

Pre-revenue startups looking for free strategy, or businesses with under $5K in total annual marketing spend where the recommendations are unlikely to fit the budget. This free audit is focused on established businesses serving Metro Vancouver. Our paid services can serve clients elsewhere. It is also not a fit if you only want reassurance that your current agency is doing fine: we say what we find.

Will the audit help even if I never hire you?

Yes. That is the design. The recommendations are vendor-agnostic. Use the document as a prioritized brief for your internal team, to compare another agency’s proposal, to challenge unproductive monthly spend, or as a leadership document for your next planning conversation. It is yours to keep and share.

What does it cost if I hire you after the audit?

The price depends on the documented scope. For example, a Search Foundation Sprint is typically $3,500–$6,000 CAD, and a Focused Custom Website is typically $5,500–$8,500 CAD. These are investment ranges, not quotes. Project pricing is agreed before implementation. Ongoing SEO or campaign optimization is optional, month-to-month and separately scoped. Ad spend and third-party operating costs are separate; MOST does not charge a percentage of media spend. See the pricing page for every approved range and the current terms.
