TailWerks Foundation

Build the Marketing Foundation Your Pet Business Needs

Foundation connects search advertising, local visibility, a complete website build, and conversion tracking. It is for pet businesses that need more qualified demand and a better place to send it.

Search advertising Core SEO and local visibility Complete website within scope

Starting at $997per month, per location

  • Google Ads management
  • Local Service Ads when eligible
  • Core SEO and local visibility
  • Website, tracking, and reporting

Initial six-month commitment. Ad spend and applicable hosting, software, integration, and third-party costs are separate.

More marketing does not fix a disconnected customer journey.

If people cannot find you, trust the website, take the next step, or be tracked from click to lead, every channel underperforms. Foundation fixes the core system before adding more channels.

01VisibilityYou are hard to find when demand is active

People search for a nearby veterinarian, groomer, trainer, or pet care provider, but competitors own the paid and local results.

02WebsiteThe click lands on a weak experience

Slow pages, vague messaging, missing services, and confusing booking paths turn expensive attention into exits.

03MeasurementThe reporting stops at traffic

You see impressions and clicks without a reliable connection to calls, forms, appointments, or the services that matter.

04OwnershipToo many vendors own separate pieces

Ads, SEO, the website, listings, and tracking are handled in isolation, so nobody is accountable for how the whole journey works.

05The actual fixOne practical foundation for demand, conversion, and measurement

Foundation gives the first search, the landing experience, the local signals, and the reporting one coordinated plan.

What is included

The core pieces your growth depends on

This is a managed package, not an unlimited service menu. Priorities, volume, and the website scope are agreed in writing so the work fits the business and the starting price.

01

Search advertising

Capture demand from people already looking for the services you provide.

  • Google Ads strategy, setup, management, and optimization
  • Local Service Ads management where category and market eligibility exist
  • Campaign and conversion tracking tied to the approved goals
  • Advertising copy and landing-page alignment
02

Core SEO and local visibility

Strengthen the signals that help search engines and local customers understand the business.

  • Technical and on-page SEO
  • Google Business Profile work
  • Citations and local listings
  • Service and location page development
  • GEO and AI-search visibility work
03

Complete website build

Create a credible, conversion-ready website within the approved project scope.

  • Website strategy and sitemap
  • Custom design, copywriting, and messaging
  • Responsive development in the agreed CMS
  • Technical SEO and performance setup
  • Approved booking and business integrations
04

Tracking, reporting, and access

See what was launched, what changed, and what the measurable signals show.

  • Analytics and conversion-tracking setup
  • SEO and advertising reporting
  • Clear priorities and implementation status
  • Client-owned access to core marketing accounts
05

Content that supports the included channels

Service pages, location pages, advertising copy, website copy, and supporting content are developed according to the approved strategy and delivery priorities. AI can assist the work, but every item still needs human review and a defined purpose. This is not an unlimited monthly content allowance.

Scope boundaries

What Foundation does not include

These boundaries keep the package focused and prevent the starting price from implying every TailWerks service is included.

Essentials CRM and inbox

Missed-call text-back, the shared inbox, retention workflows, and customer reactivation are a separate Essentials service.

Meta advertising

Facebook and Instagram advertising begins in Growth.

Managed social media

Ongoing social content management is not part of Foundation. It begins in Growth.

Link building and authority

Broader authority development and link-building campaigns begin in Growth.

Advanced AI and automation

AI phone answering, advanced conversations, lead qualification, and custom workflows belong in Scale or a separate scope.

Ongoing CRO or vCMO leadership

Post-launch conversion programs, continuous website expansion, and fractional marketing leadership require Growth, Scale, or a separate scope.

One connected system

The ad, the search result, and the website have to agree

Foundation is organized around the path a real customer takes. The campaign creates the opportunity, local and organic visibility build confidence, the website makes the next step clear, and tracking shows what happened.

Capture active demand

Search campaigns are built around the services, locations, and intent the approved plan prioritizes.

Earn the click

Local profiles, service pages, location pages, and the website reinforce the same offer and business information.

Make action obvious

Calls, forms, booking paths, and page messaging are designed around the next step a customer can actually take.

Measure the useful signals

Tracking and reporting focus on defined conversions, not an impressive-looking pile of traffic metrics.

This structure improves accountability. It does not guarantee rankings, lead volume, booked appointments, or revenue.

Who handles what

A managed program still needs an informed owner

TailWerks handles the marketing implementation. Your team supplies the access, facts, approvals, budget, and real lead-response context the work depends on.

TailWerks handles

  • Marketing audit, priorities, and implementation plan
  • Approved Google Ads and eligible Local Service Ads management
  • Core SEO, local visibility, and content execution
  • Website strategy, design, copy, and development within scope
  • Tracking configuration and recurring reporting

We own the work we approve, document what changed, and flag limits we do not control.

We do together

  • Choose the priority services, locations, offers, and conversion goals
  • Approve the website scope and implementation order
  • Review lead quality and business context behind the numbers
  • Decide when a new request changes the approved scope
  • Keep the strategy aligned with operational capacity

The useful decisions happen where marketing data and operating reality meet.

You handle

  • Accurate business information and timely account access
  • Advertising spend and applicable third-party charges
  • Consolidated approvals and factual review
  • Lead response, booking, service delivery, pricing, and sales
  • Licensing, clinical, legal, and regulatory accuracy

Marketing cannot compensate for slow lead response, incorrect information, or services the business cannot deliver.

Pricing and commitment

Starting at $997 per month, per location

The starting price fits a defined single-location scope. Markets, services, site condition, integrations, and website complexity vary too much for one public number to be an honest fixed quote.

Included within scope

  • Approved search advertising management
  • Core SEO and local visibility work
  • Complete website build defined in the proposal
  • Analytics, conversion tracking, and reporting
  • Client-owned access to core accounts

The proposal states the actual deliverables, priorities, and responsibilities.

Priced separately when applicable

  • Google Ads and Local Service Ads media spend
  • Hosting, domains, software licenses, and premium plugins
  • Paid data, call tracking, or platform usage
  • Custom integrations and work outside the approved scope
  • Additional locations or franchise-level systems

Applicable outside costs are identified before the related work is approved.

Commitment

  • Initial six-month commitment
  • Final monthly price approved before work starts
  • Scope, billing, renewal, and termination stated in the agreement
  • Platform policies and third-party pricing can change
  • Results are not guaranteed

The public page explains the structure. The signed agreement controls the exact commercial terms.

Fit check

Foundation works when the basics are the real bottleneck

It is a strong first package for an established pet business that needs more local demand, a better website, and useful measurement. It is not a shortcut around staffing, capacity, service quality, lead response, or sales.

A strong fit

You have a proven service, capacity for more customers, one decision maker, access to the core accounts, and budget for media spend.

A poor fit

You need guaranteed lead volume, cannot fund ad spend, cannot provide approvals or access, or have no capacity to answer and serve new customers.

Where it fits

Foundation is the first demand-generation package

Essentials is separate and can run beside any package. Growth widens the marketing mix. Scale is the advanced tier after a business has completed at least six months of Growth.
