Independent audits. Clearer growth.

Your marketing is leaking revenue. Find out where.

Independent audits of paid media, SEO, marketing departments or internal marketing teams, agency performance, and reporting. We find what's working, what's not, and what's holding back growth.

Core focus

Four key areas. A stronger bottom line.

  • Cost

    Where the budget goes, and what it returns.

  • Performance

    Whether campaigns deliver what they claim.

  • Reporting

    Whether the numbers reconcile with reality.

  • Revenue

    How marketing connects to actual sales.

Reported vs. found

What looks good isn't always the full story.

An independent audit compares what was reported against what the underlying accounts and business records actually show.

Reported

Search visibility was strong: rankings and impressions climbing month over month.

Found

The agency being paid to manage SEO was purchasing high-risk, commercial-heavy link placements misaligned with search guidelines, exposing the client to real algorithmic and reputational risk. Roughly $90K in flagged spend.

Reported

Email marketing was “handled”: regular sends going out to the list.

Found

In one year, customers who had placed orders over $500 unsubscribed from email. Their orders added up to $1.15M, at a business doing about $4M a year. The emails were turning off some of the most valuable customers.

Reported

Paid media and agency spend were performing as expected.

Found

Rebalancing organic vs. paid, and brand vs. non-brand spend, surfaced $240K in reducible cost with no loss in performance.

How it works

A simple, clear process.

  1. Step 01: Choose your review

  2. Step 02: We audit and analyze

    Share access to your accounts, and we review the data, strategy, and execution.

  3. Step 03: You get clear findings

    Clear, actionable answers, not more questions.

The problem

Marketing reports do not always tell the whole story.

Most marketing reports are written by the people who did the work being reported on. That's not evidence of a problem, but it's exactly why a second, independent look is often worth having.

  • Advertising conversions do not match CRM revenue.
  • Lead volume rises while booked business does not.
  • Multiple platforms claim credit for the same revenue.
  • An agency report looks strong while actual sales decline.
  • SEO traffic increases without meaningful leads.
  • It is unclear which marketing sources actually produce customers.
  • Agency reporting cannot be reconciled with the underlying accounts.
  • Google Ads conversions look strong while revenue does not move.
Independence

We are not here to take over your marketing.
