By Dan d'Auvergne

Four ways to work with Foundlab, each with a starting price and a written target. If we have not met, the audit usually comes first and its fee is credited when you continue. If you already know what is broken, we can skip it.

The audit

Findability Audit.
$1,500 to $2,500.
Seven business days.

The Findability Audit puts the evidence and the next actions in one report.

Which plan

Pick by where your customers choose you.

The Maps pack and the phone
A service plus a suburb, then a call and a booking.
Local
Organic results and AI answers
Buying questions and category comparisons.
Brand
Referrals, the website and the partners
A partner or practitioner name checked before the first meeting.
Firm
The website is the obstacle
Slow pages, an unclear offer or no easy way to book on a phone.
Builds

Not sure which fits? Read the guide for your industry: allied health, supplements, skin clinics, telehealth, trades or hair salons.

The audit helps establish which work matters. If the answer is clear on a 15-minute call, we can agree the scope there.

Break-even

What one recovered booking is worth.

At $599 a month, the Local plan needs $599 in additional monthly contribution to cover its fee. If a recovered booking contributes $150 after delivery costs, four extra bookings cover $600. Your margins and provider costs determine your actual break-even.

This calculation illustrates a possible outcome. The Call Loss Calculator estimates revenue using your inputs; it does not measure profit or guarantee recovered bookings.

What to expect

Clear fees, terms and ownership.

No retainer by stealth. A managed plan is a separate decision, with its price and scope agreed before you commit.

Targets with a written remedy. Foundlab cannot control rankings or AI answers. The proposal defines the target, how it is measured and the fee pause, free months or other remedy that applies.

You keep the work. Local, Brand and Firm begin with six months. After the initial term, plans continue month to month. Your website, profile, content and accounts remain yours.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Why is the audit not free?

It is paid research: evidence, a prioritised action list, articles and a walkthrough. You can hand the work to another developer. Its fee is credited in full when you continue within the published credit window.

Can I skip the audit?

Yes. If the work is clear from a call, we can start with an agreed plan or build. The audit helps when evidence is needed to choose the work.

What if the target is missed?

Local: the fee pauses until the agreed target is met. Brand: months five and six are free if the month-four target is missed. Firm: the target and remedy are written per engagement. Scope and measurement are recorded in the proposal.

How long am I committing for?

Local, Brand and Firm begin with six months, then continue month to month. Websites are one-off builds with the price agreed before work starts. Notice, provider charges and scope are recorded before you sign.

Who does the work?

Dan does the work, supported by Foundlab's research pipeline.
