What Working with Slick Clicks Actually Looks Like

Let’s be honest — hiring a digital marketing consultant can feel overwhelming. Who do you trust? Where do you even start?

I get it. I’ve sat across from business owners who felt exactly that way. Excited about growing their business, but unsure who to trust with their budget.

One client comes to mind straight away. She arrived at our first meeting convinced she needed a Facebook campaign — ready to go, budget in hand. But after learning about her business, her audience, and her goals, the real opportunity was sitting on Google and LinkedIn the whole time. Once I walked her through the research and proposed strategy, she could see exactly why. That shift led to pleasing results in the end.

Stories like hers are exactly why I built Slick Clicks the way I did.

Over the past seven years, I’ve made it my mission to keep things simple, transparent, and tailored to your brand's needs. No cookie-cutter strategies. No confusing proposals. Just an honest conversation about what will actually work for your business.

So grab a coffee ☕ - let me walk you through exactly what our journey together will look like.

Step 1: Let’s Have a Chat — No Strings Attached

Every journey with Slick Clicks starts the same way — a free 30-minute consultation over Google Meet.

No pitch deck. No pressure. Just a real conversation. I want to hear about your business before I mention a single strategy. What are your goals? What have you already tried? What’s frustrating you right now? The more I understand upfront, the better I can serve you down the line.

I’ll also walk you through my packages and how I work — so there are zero surprises later.

By the end of our chat, you’ll have:

•        A clearer picture of what digital marketing can do for your business

•        A sense of which platforms are worth your budget

•        An honest feel for whether we’re the right fit for each other.

Step 2: Welcome to the Family — Let’s Get You Onboarded

Once we’ve had our consult and you’re happy to move forward, the next step is getting the paperwork out of the way — quickly and painlessly.

After your agreement is signed, I get straight to work. You don’t need a polished marketing strategy, prior campaign data, or a big budget plan ready. Just bring what you know about your business. That’s enough.

This is where the deep dive begins. I’ll conduct thorough keyword research, competitor analysis, and social media platform research to understand where your audience actually lives online. For each platform, I’ll project forecasted results so you can see the potential before a single cent is spent.

This isn’t just admin. It’s the foundation on which everything else is built.

The whole process is typically wrapped up within 48 hours, so there’s no long waiting around. You won’t be left wondering what’s happening on my end either - I keep communication open and timelines clear from day one.

By the time onboarding is complete, I’ll have everything needed to present you with a full strategy recommendation. Which brings us to the exciting part…

Step 3: Here’s What I Found — Your Strategy Revealed

This is my favourite part of the whole process — and honestly, it tends to be my clients’ favourite too.

Once the research is complete, I’ll set up a presentation to walk you through everything I’ve found. No jargon-heavy reports dropped in your inbox. A real conversation, where I take you through the data and explain what it all means for your business.

You’ll see a breakdown of keyword opportunities, what your competitors are doing, and where your audience is most active. More importantly, you’ll see forecasted results for each platform — so the numbers do the talking.

And here’s where I’ll be honest with you, even if it’s not what you expected to hear.

Some clients come to me with a platform already in mind — convinced that Facebook is the answer, or that they need to be on every channel at once. But the research doesn’t lie. If Google Ads or LinkedIn is where your real opportunity sits, that’s exactly what I’ll tell you - and I’ll show you why.

My job isn’t to sell you a campaign. It’s about recommending and implementing a strategy that will actually move the needle for your business.

By the end of our meeting, you’ll have a clear, tailored strategy in hand - and the confidence to move forward knowing it’s built on real data, not guesswork.
