Strategy consulting firms · Search engine optimisation
Be the page a promoter finds when searching for guidance on a hard decision.
SEO for a strategy firm is the work of making the partners' thinking findable when a sponsor searches on a decision, a sector or a partner's name. GullySales works on page structure, partner pages and the pieces that answer those searches, and records a baseline before any change.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What search engine optimisation means
Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the work of getting your website to appear when a buyer searches Google for what you sell. GullySales builds pages around real search terms, fixes technical issues that block ranking, and tracks which searches actually bring enquiries.

For strategy consulting firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The name search is the real test”
A referral ends with someone typing a partner's name or the firm's name into a search box. The results page then acts as a reference check. Partner pages, press mentions and any profile that appears first need to be accurate and consistent in how they describe the work.
“Sponsors search on decisions, not services”
A promoter types a plain question, such as whether to enter a neighbouring state or how to separate a family business. A services list does not answer that. A page that sets out how a partner would frame the decision does, and it is the one read to the end.
“Listing every sector on one page signals no depth”
A firm that names every sector in one paragraph appears to know none of them. Separate pages for the few sectors a partner knows well, each with that partner's reasoning and named experience, give search engines and readers something specific to match.
“A shared name sends the buyer elsewhere”
Strategy firms share names with large consultancies and with unrelated businesses. If a search for the firm returns someone else, a banker's introduction is wasted. Clear page titles and one consistent description of the firm across every profile reduce that confusion.
What we do
What we deliver for strategy consulting firms.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A search audit of partner and firm names
Results for each partner and the firm are checked, and wrong, old or missing listings are noted.
Result: The owner holds a list of what a referred buyer sees first.
A plan for decision-led pages
A short list of board-level decisions the partners handle, each matched to a page that a partner will write.
Result: Each page has a named partner and a decision it answers.
Partner pages rewritten for search
Each partner page rebuilt around decisions, sectors and the kinds of board, in the partner's own words.
Result: A search on a partner's name lands on a page that matches the introduction.
A sector page structure
One page for each sector the firm truly serves, linked to the relevant partner and pieces.
Result: A sector search reaches a page with depth.
A search baseline
Pages, queries and visits recorded before changes begin and kept as the starting row.
Result: Later movement is set against that row and not against memory.
How the result is measured
- Ranking positions
- Organic traffic
- Enquiries from organic search
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works
How the search engine optimisation work runs
The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.
- 1
Audit and baseline
We record where the site stands today: positions, traffic, technical faults and the enquiries search currently produces. Nothing starts until this number is written down.
- 2
Decide what to rank for
We map the searches your buyers use, in your words and theirs, and pick the ones worth the effort for your margin and your capacity.
- 3
Fix the foundations
Technical faults first, because the cheapest gains are usually there. Then the Business Profile and directory consistency.
- 4
Build the pages
A page for each thing you do, written to answer the question it is searched for, with a clear next step at the end.
- 5
Publish and earn mentions
Content goes out on the calendar. Links and mentions are earned from real relationships, not bought.
- 6
Measure, report, adjust
At the interval agreed at the start we report what moved and what did not, and change the plan when the numbers say so.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
