What services does Saltwater Studio offer?
Four engagements: a $150 AI Visibility Audit, the optimization sprint that implements it, ongoing AI-managed presence, and custom AI systems — automation, agents, and integrations. The audit has a flat price; everything else is quoted to the business.
What does the $150 AI Visibility Audit include?
Five checks: how your business shows up in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI results; whether your key pages are structured answer-first; schema and entity consistency; your Google Business Profile; and a technical SEO baseline. It arrives as a written report — scored by category, issues ranked by impact, fixes in order — within 72 hours.
How fast is the audit delivered?
Within 72 hours of purchase, fully async — buy it, and the report arrives by email. No call, no meeting; if something needs clarifying, we ask by email.
Do I need to get on a call?
No. Every engagement can run entirely over email. The intake form asks how you would rather be reached — a call is available, never required.
What happens after the audit?
The report stands alone. Fix the items yourself, hand the report to your developer, or have Saltwater Studio implement it as a scoped sprint — your call, no obligation either way.
What does the AI-Managed Presence retainer cover?
The monthly work that keeps rankings, profiles, and AI answers current after the fixes land: Google Business Profile management, schema and content-signal upkeep, monitoring what AI assistants say about the business, and a written monthly report of what moved. Quote-based, scoped to the business.
Where should a business start?
With whichever repetitive task costs the most hours, or with the phone. Strategy is the right first step when nobody has mapped how work moves through the business yet; automation or an agent is the right first step when the bottleneck is already obvious.
Do you work with businesses outside the Gulf Coast?
Yes. Saltwater Studio works with local businesses across the United States; the Gulf Coast, from Gulf Shores, Alabama to Panama City, Florida, is home base, not a limit.
