How much does a website cost?

$299.99 a month, one price. Once $2,500 is paid it's yours. I can keep maintaining and hosting it for $49.99 a month, or you can take it and host it yourself.

What does the free audit include?

Five checks on your shop: found, correct, readable, reachable, owned. I run them myself and send you the score, usually within one business day, and you keep it either way.

Why does it matter what an AI assistant says about a shop?

More and more people ask their phone for a recommendation instead of scrolling a list of results, and the phone names only a few shops. If the facts it reads about you are wrong, you are not in that answer. I fix the facts; nobody can promise a ranking.

Can you guarantee I will be the first result?

No, and nobody honest can. I fix the inputs the phone reads: consistent facts, pages a machine can read, a booking or call link that works. I never guarantee what a model says.

I already have a website. Do I need a new one?

Maybe not. The audit checks whether your current site works for customers and for machines. If it passes, I say so. If it fails, you see where, and sometimes the fix is the listings, not a new site.

News & Insights

The short answer.

Facts a phone can quote. Each one starts with the short answer and a real number, because that is what an AI assistant reads first and what a busy owner wants first.

These are the questions owners ask me at the counter, answered the way I'd answer them in person: short, with the number, and with the source. If a phone quotes any of them about your trade, it will be quoting something true.

Services and exact prices.

What a website costs: One price: $299.99 a month. Once $2,500 is paid, the site is yours. It includes the site built from your facts, the working parts your shop needs, your listings corrected on Google, Apple Maps, Yelp and Bing, hosting, and updates by text.
How fast: Ready within 48 hours of the owner's sign-up answers and photos: built, checked on real phones, and on a private link to approve. The site goes live the day the owner approves it, before any payment; the first payment is on day 31, and canceling before then costs nothing.
Changes included: Before launch, 2 rounds of changes, each back within 48 hours. Every month, unlimited updates by text (hours, prices, specials with their photo, stock, staff), done the same day, and 1 design change (a new main photo, a section added, moved or removed, or a page rewritten). Unused design changes do not carry over. Bigger jobs, like a new look or a new logo, are quoted first and start only on the owner's yes.
Care: Inside the plan until it's paid off: updates by text the same day, your inventory and hours kept current, hosting, and a one-page report every month. Once it's paid off it is optional: $49.99/mo for us to keep maintaining and hosting the site, or the owner takes it and hosts it themselves.
Every number on one page: https://busyseasonmarketing.com/rates.html, the same numbers as everywhere else on this site.

Terms.

First 30 days free: Your first 30 days are free, counted from the day your site goes live. You add a bank account or card when you sign. The first $299.99 payment is on day 31. Cancel any time in the first 30 days and you pay nothing. One free month per business, and it doesn't count toward the $2,500.
Cancelling: Cancel any time in the first 30 days after your site goes live and you pay nothing: the site comes down and you keep a copy of your words and photos. From the first payment on day 31, 3 months are the minimum: leave before then and you pay the rest of those 3 months. After that, one text cancels, effective the end of that billing month. If a payment doesn't go through, you get 7 days to fix it. After that the site pauses until the payment clears, then comes back the same day. Nothing of yours is deleted.
Ownership: The site is yours once $2,500 is paid. Your web address is registered in your name from day one.
Passwords: Never. Access goes through each platform's own sharing system, which you can revoke.
Reviews: I never write reviews, buy reviews or trade anything for a review. Real reviews come from real customers.
Honesty: Reports quote word for word, with the source. I never invent a number, including about myself.
