Your business, assessed by a real person

Human review brings the context.
Experience makes sense of the details.

I’m a creative problem solver with a strategist’s eye. I connect ideas, spot what’s getting in the way, and turn complicated digital questions into practical next steps. FIX/LIST brings that approach to your business through a personal assessment you can understand and use.

Digital tools can help collect and organize public information. My role is to question those signals, understand your business and decide what matters. I personally review the findings and recommendations before sending your report. Available evidence varies: anything I cannot verify is labeled unmeasured, with the limits explained. A generic score cannot make those decisions for you.

THE BIGGER PICTURE. THE DETAILS THAT MATTER.

What I check.

A connected assessment of how your business is found, represented, trusted and chosen. I examine the touchpoints together, compare relevant competitors, document the evidence and explain what deserves attention.

01 / SEARCH

Google Search + SEO

Google and Bing discovery, sampled search queries, indexing signals, content relevance and gaps in how customers find your services.

02 / LOCAL

Local visibility

Directory hygiene: name, address, phone, hours, duplicate listings, and profile completeness.

03 / WEBSITE

Website experience

Mobile usability, page speed and Core Web Vitals where measurable, broken links, and calls to action.

04 / REPUTATION

Reviews + reputation

Public reviews, credibility signals, and how reputation is presented.

05 / DISCOVERY

Search discovery

How clearly the business appears in relevant search results and public listings.

06 / SOCIAL

Social presence + content

Platform-by-platform profile details, content themes, posting cadence, visible engagement, audience signals and the path back to your business. Public data only unless you supply authorized exports.

07 / COMPETITORS

Your competitive landscape

Compare relevant businesses serving the same audience: search presence, positioning, website experience, social content and public reputation. The report identifies the comparison set and why it matters.

08 / AUTHORITY

Authority + backlinks

Moz Domain Authority and link metrics where accessible, or clearly named alternative-provider readings. Referring domains, link context and competitor comparisons are dated and attributed; different providers’ scores are not interchangeable.

09 / HISTORY

Historical context

Available ranking, traffic, backlink and social history from dated public sources, provider data or exports you choose to supply. When no reliable history exists, today’s assessment establishes a baseline.

10 / CUSTOMER JOURNEY

The path to action

Follow the public path from discovery to inquiry, booking or purchase, looking for confusing steps, broken links and missed opportunities to connect.

Metrics depend on source access and coverage. The report names the provider, date, time window and limits. Private analytics require your authorized exports; unavailable figures are clearly identified. Authority metrics are third-party indicators, not Google scores.

No jargon. No scare tactics.

A closer look.
A clearer way forward.

Within 48 hours of verified payment and complete business details, you receive a personally reviewed, FIX/LIST-branded 15-page report: an executive assessment, detailed findings, relevant competitor comparisons, available historical context, a source register and a prioritized action roadmap. The depth follows the evidence—not an arbitrary item limit.

Articles + methodology

A smarter place to start.

Practical digital help for small business owners who want to understand the problem before buying another tool.

Before you decide

The details, without the runaround.

Is this an automated website scan?

No. Digital tools support evidence collection and report preparation. I personally check the evidence and interpretation, develop the analysis, edit the report and send it myself. It is an assessment for one business and one location, not a full technical, security or compliance audit.

Are you fixing my digital footprint for me?

No. This service is an assessment and roadmap. I assess what's there, explain it clearly and recommend your next steps; implementation is separate.

How do you assess online discovery?

I review dated search results, listings and public profiles relevant to your business and market. Results vary by location, query and date; there is no promise of a universal score.

Do I need to understand SEO?

Absolutely not. The report uses everyday language, examples and priority recommendations.

When does the 48-hour timeframe begin?

Once payment is received and the required business details have been provided. If anything's missing, we'll let you know.

Which indicators does the audit cover?

I review public search visibility, listing accuracy, review ratings and recency, social profile completeness and posting activity, mobile usability and calls to action. Private KPIs such as reach, click-through rate, conversion rate, and return on ad spend are not measured without verified analytics data and are not included in this public-facing assessment.

Will you access my accounts or private analytics?

No account access is required for the public-facing assessment. We evaluate public information; private metrics aren't represented as verified.

Is it a legal compliance or accessibility certification?

No. We conduct limited public-facing trust and usability checks and identify possible issues for qualified review.

Can I ask questions about my report?

Yes. You’re welcome to reply with questions about the findings and recommendations after you receive it.

Authority scores are third-party comparisons, not Google rankings. Private reach, conversions, and revenue are not inferred. Unavailable metrics are marked unmeasured.

01 / SOCIAL PRESENCE

Beautiful feed. Unclear next step.

What I found
The Instagram bio doesn’t name the delivery area, and the booking link leads to an unavailable page.
Why it matters
Someone who likes a bouquet still has to figure out whether they can order it.
What I’d do
Name the city and delivery area, then link directly to ordering.
02 / LOCAL SEARCH

Two different sets of hours.

What I found
The website and public business listing show different Saturday closing times.
Why it matters
A customer planning a pickup doesn’t know which one to trust.
What I’d do
Confirm the correct hours and make them consistent across public listings.
03 / WEBSITE EXPERIENCE

Same-day delivery is hard to find.

What I found
On mobile, delivery information sits below a long gallery, with no clear order button near the top.
Why it matters
A ready-to-buy visitor may leave before finding the service they need.
What I’d do
Bring delivery details and an “Order flowers” button into the first screen.
