Marketing Consultant for Topsham, Maine
I help Topsham small businesses build smarter marketing strategies that drive real growth — Google Business Profile, local SEO, reviews, email, and the fundamentals that actually move the needle in a Midcoast Maine market.
What I help Topsham businesses with
Most Topsham small businesses don't need another retainer agency. They need someone to help them stop wasting money on marketing that doesn't work and start doing the 3-4 things that actually drive growth in a Midcoast Maine market.
- Google Business Profile optimization — the single biggest local-SEO lever for a Topsham business. Most profiles are 40% complete; we fix that in one session.
- Website audits — a page-by-page review of what's costing you customers, with specific fixes ranked by impact.
- Local SEO for Midcoast Maine — ranking for the queries Topsham customers actually type into Google when they're ready to buy.
- Google review strategy — the template-driven system for going from 0-5 reviews to 30+ without begging or gaming.
- Email marketing setup — the one channel with better ROI than anything else, almost always ignored by small local businesses.
Why Topsham, specifically
Topsham sits right across the Androscoggin from Brunswick, and its business mix is a little different: more professional services, trades, and independent retail than the Bowdoin-orbit downtown. That changes what marketing actually works here. Paid Facebook ads to a 10-mile radius get expensive fast; ranking on Google for "roofer Topsham Maine" or "Topsham dentist" is where the actual leads come from.
If your business lives on Main Street or off Route 196, your customers are searching for you the same way they'd search for a business in Lewiston or Portland — but your margin for error is smaller because the search volume is smaller. Getting the basics right (your Google profile, your first page of results, your review count) matters more per-search in Topsham than it does in a bigger metro.
No retainer. No agency fluff. No 6-month contract. Work with me as a flat-fee Strategy Session ($297), a Website & Profile Audit ($197), or a Done-With-You program ($1,500+) where I teach you the system so you can run it yourself.
How I work with Topsham businesses
Strategy Session — $297
A 90-minute deep-dive. You tell me what you're doing; I tell you what's working, what's wasting money, and what the next 3 moves should be. You leave with a written plan. That's it. No upsell.
Website & Profile Audit — $197
Full SEO audit of your site and Google Business Profile. You get a PDF with every issue ranked by severity and a specific fix for each one. Most Topsham small-business sites have 15-30 real issues; I find them.
Done-With-You Program — from $1,500
We work together for 30-90 days to rebuild your marketing foundation: GBP, website, reviews, email list, content plan. I teach you the why behind every step so you can run it yourself when we're done.
Serving the rest of Midcoast Maine
I also work with small businesses in Brunswick, Bath, Freeport, Rockland, Camden, and Portland. If you're in the Midcoast and Google hasn't been working for you, let's talk.
