1-Hour Marketing Strategy Session – $250

Marketing Expert at Ducks In Rows

Not every business is ready for a monthly contract—and that’s okay.

Ask A Marketing Expert is a paid, 1-hour strategy session for business owners who need experienced marketing guidance before making important decisions.

You submit your questions in advance, and leave with clear written next steps—without a long-term commitment.

Who This Session Is For

Built for business owners, consultants, and in-house marketers who value honest, strategic feedback.

This session works well if:

You’re Doing It Yourself

Managing your own website, SEO or ads but feeling stuck.

You Need a Gut Check

Before making a big marketing decision.

You’re Sorting Through Conflicting Advice

You want clarity from someone experienced.

You’re Not Ready for a Monthly Contract

But still want professional direction.

How It Works

This is not a casual Q&A call.

\

The Pre-Work

When you book, you’ll share your top 3–5 questions. I spend time reviewing your site, checking your data, or researching your specific tech stack before our call.

\

The Meeting

We meet virtually for 60 minutes. We walk through your questions in order of priority. I explain what I see, what I would change, and why.

\

The Action Plan

I take the notes so you don’t have to. Within 24 hours, you’ll get a clear document with every answer we discussed plus a list of actionable next steps and helpful resources.

You will be able to take my notes and move forward on your own.

What We Can Work Through Together

Common topics include:

\

SEO direction and page structure

\

Google Ads setup or performance questions

\

Conversion tracking concerns

\

Landing page feedback

\

Budget decisions

\

Understanding your analytics

\

Branding or design concerns

\

Deciding what to prioritize next

If it relates to search, advertising, design or marketing strategy, it is likely a good fit.

If you are unsure, feel free to reach out before booking.

What This Session Includes (and What It Doesn’t)

This is a focused, 1-hour strategy session built around your submitted questions. I prepare in advance so we can use our time well and discuss practical next steps.

✔ Includes

\

Pre-session review and preparation

\

60-minute strategy call

\

Actionable notes within 24 hours

\

Clear next-step recommendations

✖ Does Not Include

\

Ongoing consulting

\

Implementation inside your accounts

\

Full technical SEO audits

\

Complete Google Ads rebuilds

If you need deeper support, we can absolutely talk about that later. But this session is designed to stand on its own.

Clear expectations help protect your investment and ensure we use the hour wisely.

Why This Session Is $250

You’re not getting an hour of general advice.
You’re getting deep preparation, focused attention, and over 15 years of hands-on experience in SEO, advertising and design.

Often, one focused conversation can:

\

Avoid months of trial and error

\

Prevent wasted ad spend

\

Clarify what actually deserves your time

\

Move forward with confidence

If this session helps you avoid one wrong turn or one poorly structured campaign, it has likely paid for itself.

A Low-Pressure Way to Get Support

Some clients book this session and move forward on their own.

Some decide later they want professional support.

Either is completely fine.

The goal is simple: help you make smarter marketing decisions with confidence.

FAQs

What kind of questions should I bring to this session?

Bring questions that help you make decisions.

For example:

  • Why might our ads be getting clicks but not leads?
  • Does this landing page clearly explain what we offer?
  • What should we focus on first with a limited budget?
  • Are we prioritizing the right pages for SEO?
  • Does this strategy make sense before we invest more?

This session works best when we focus on direction and next steps—not large technical projects or full account rebuilds.

If you are unsure whether your questions are a good fit, feel free to get in touch before booking.

 

Will you check my conversion tracking setup?

If your question touches on tracking, I can review what is visible and share high-level guidance.

However, a full conversion tracking audit or setup requires implementation and is handled as a separate project.

During this session, the goal is to identify potential issues and explain what may need further attention, not to rebuild tracking systems.

 

How far in advance do I need to book?

Sessions must be booked at least one week in advance.

This gives me time to review your materials, research your questions, and prepare thoughtful notes before we meet.

The preparation time is what makes this session focused and productive.

 

What happens if I need to cancel?

Because I begin research and preparation before our meeting, canceled sessions receive a 60% refund.

The remaining 40% covers the prep time already invested in reviewing your materials and outlining recommendations.

You can reschedule at no cost, but please reach out as soon as possible.

 

Can this help if I feel overwhelmed?

Yes, many clients book this session because they are sorting through too much information. We use the hour to slow things down and identify what deserves your attention next.

You do not need everything perfectly organized before we meet.

 

Is what I share confidential?

Yes, anything you share about your business, marketing accounts, or strategy is handled professionally and respectfully.
