What I do

LOCAL SEO AND AEO

When someone in Fargo searches for what you do, you should be the first name they see. I optimize your Google Business Profile, build local citations, and create content for Google and AI answers.

WEB DESIGN

Every build starts with an hour-long interview, so the site sounds like you instead of a template. Then I connect it to instant lead response and automated follow-up.

LEAD MANAGEMENT

Most businesses lose more jobs to slow replies than to lost bids. I build automated systems that follow up instantly so no lead goes cold while you're on a job.

AI IMPLEMENTATION

I look at how your business runs, find where time and money are leaking, and build AI and automation systems so you stop managing every piece of the operation by hand.

RECENT RESULTS

Nathan Payne · Co-Founder, Investor Thrive

A Make.com automation now runs his social publishing end to end. It replaced two full-time virtual assistant roles.

Realtor · Twin Cities

An hour-long interview became the website: his background, his interests, why he does the work at all. He called it magical. His wife read it and teared up.

Dermatology Practice · Fargo, ND

Local SEO at the first location led to two more markets, Grand Forks and Devils Lake, plus a new website build.

BUILT FOR FARGO-MOORHEAD

I am not a remote agency that parachutes in. I have been here thirty years. I know the FM market, the local competitors, and what actually drives customers here, and I build every strategy around how this region works.

HOW IT WORKS

  1. 01
    FREE MAP SNAPSHOT

    I check one search on Google Maps at 81 points across Fargo, West Fargo, Moorhead and Dilworth and send you a one-page snapshot within 48 hours. No cost and no commitment. If you want to talk it through, it takes 20 minutes.

  2. 02
    PRIORITIZE

    I sort what I find by impact and effort. Most clients walk away with a ranked list of three to five moves, each with a rough cost and timeline, before I touch anything.

  3. 03
    BUILD & DEPLOY

    I build, test, and launch your automations and systems. Most pilots go live within 2 to 4 weeks.

  4. 04
    OPERATE & GROW

    I monitor and improve what I build, and you get a short monthly summary of what ran, what improved, and what's next.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Is Apleo just one person?

Yes. I run this on the same automation and AI systems I build for clients, which is how one person carries the workload. If you want evidence the systems work, you are looking at it.

Do you work outside Fargo-Moorhead?

Fargo-Moorhead is home and most of my clients are here, but I take remote work too. I have built for a client in the Twin Cities and expanded an existing client into Grand Forks and Devils Lake. Local is a preference, not a requirement.

What's in the free map snapshot?

I check one search on Google Maps at 81 points across Fargo, West Fargo, Moorhead and Dilworth and send you a one-page snapshot within 48 hours: where you show up, who's ahead of you, and the first thing I'd fix. No cost and no commitment, and it's yours whether you hire me or not. If you want to talk it through, it takes 20 minutes.

How do you charge?

A setup fee, then a monthly rate. A website starts at $1,000 to build, plus $97 a month. Local SEO for one location is $1,500 to set up and $750 a month. The full system, with a website, local SEO and lead follow-up, is $3,200 to set up and $850 a month. Each extra location on a local SEO plan is $600 a month, with setup quoted. Larger or out-of-area jobs are quoted.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

Local SEO and the full system have a 90-day initial commitment, which is about how long it takes for local SEO work to show real movement. After that they run month to month at the same rate. You own your website, domain and content.

What if it doesn't work?

You will know quickly, because the reporting shows where you actually rank every fifteen days instead of at the end of a quarter. I would rather have an uncomfortable conversation on day 45 than an unhappy client on day 90.
