Groundwork
You Bet on Yourself. Now Look Like It.
Starting a business takes guts. The paperwork — the LLC, the licenses, the bank account — that’s the easy part. The hard part is looking like you’ve been in business for years on the day you open, because that’s what customers are judging when they search for you.
Here’s the problem most new businesses run into: they open invisible. No website, or a placeholder one. No Google listing, so they don’t show up on the map. No reviews, because nobody ever asked. Meanwhile the business down the street has all of it — and gets the call.
That’s why we built Groundwork.
Groundwork Launch Studio is our new-business package: everything a business needs to open with confidence, handled by one team, for one flat price — $3,950, half to start and half at launch, done in about two weeks.
Here’s what’s inside:
- Logo + mini brand kit — your logo files, colors, and type, ready to use everywhere
- A 5-page website — fast, mobile-first, built to turn searches into calls
- Google Business Profile — created, completed, and the verification walked through with you
- Review engine — counter QR cards plus a follow-up flow that asks every customer, so reviews start at job one, not month six
- Business email — set up on your own domain
- Signage design — storefront and vehicle-ready designs, so your real-world look matches your online one
- Launch checklist — the unglamorous essentials (listings, directories, socials) handled in order
Why all at once? Because the pieces hold each other up. Your Google listing needs your website behind it. Reviews need the listing live. Your signage, your site, and your socials should all carry the same brand. Built one piece at a time, months apart, a new business spends its first year looking half-finished. Built together, it opens looking established.
How it works: on day one, your brand kit kicks off and your Google profile is submitted — verification takes the longest, so it starts first. By week one, your logo is approved, your website is up, and your email is running. By week two, the review kit is in your hands and the listings are complete. All that’s left is the part only you can do: great work.
One honest note: we don’t file LLCs or give legal or tax advice. You form the business — we make it look open.
And when the launch is done, Launch Care ($199/month) keeps it moving: hosting and site care, Google profile posts, and review monitoring. When you’re ready to really grow, that’s where our full SEO plans come in.
Your future customers are searching tonight. Show up like the business you set out to build.
