Goldeneye Advisory
Keep the intelligence with Goldeneye. Keep execution with your team.
How does this work?
Goldeneye provides the intelligence, priorities, direction, specifications, guidance and retesting. Your team or your partners carry out the agreed work.
Advisory suits a business that already has people who can do the work, and needs to know what the work should be, in what order, and whether it moved anything.
Who holds what?
With Advisory, your team does the work and we guide it. With Managed, Goldeneye takes a more hands-on role in carrying out the work. The findings and priorities carry through either way.
Goldeneye holds
- The findings, their evidence and their priority order
- Direction on what should change and why it matters commercially
- Written specifications your team or agency can implement from
- Guidance while the work is carried out, including review of what was built
- Retesting of the decision environments and findings being worked
- Reading whether the position moved, and what that means for the next priority
You hold
- Implementation on your site, profiles and content
- The internal decisions, approvals and scheduling
- Access, accounts and anything only your side can change
- Telling us when something shipped, so it can be retested
What we work on
Assembled from your findings, not from a package.
Advisory is not a fixed package, and it is not a monthly report subscription. We agree the priorities from your findings, work through them with your team, and adjust as things are fixed and new priorities appear. Depending on what the evidence supports, those priorities can involve technical SEO, local SEO, entity optimization, AEO, GEO, content architecture, source and citation work or AI visibility analysis. None of them are performed automatically every month.
The rhythm
How the work actually runs.
Every ongoing engagement includes retesting of the searches, answers and visibility areas being actively worked on. Frequency depends on the intervention and on how quickly the environment reflects change, so it is set per engagement rather than sold as a reporting cycle.
- 01MeasureThe current position is recorded, so every later step can be read against something real.
- 02PrioritizeFindings are ordered against what they are affecting, not against how easy they are.
- 03SpecifyEach priority is written so the person doing the work knows exactly what to change.
- 04Implement (client/team)Your team or your partners implement. Goldeneye stays available while they do.
- 05VerifyThe change is checked against the specification before it is treated as done.
- 06RetestThe decision environment and the finding are checked again after the change lands.
- 07Observe movementWhat moved, what did not, and what that means for the next priority.
Do we need a Check first?
Ongoing work runs against a baseline, because movement cannot be read without one. That does not always mean buying a full Check. We'll confirm whether an existing Goldeneye baseline can be used or whether a current baseline is needed before ongoing work begins. Where recent evidence already exists, a scoped baseline is validated or established during onboarding.
What if our team is stretched?
Advisory assumes someone on your side can act. If that stops being true for the priorities that matter, the honest answer is a change of involvement level rather than a longer backlog. If you move to Managed later, we pick up the work. Everything we have learned carries over.
Investment
From $4,500/month. Starts from a recent Check, sufficient recent evidence or a scoped baseline.
Scope is confirmed once the findings are known, because the composition of work depends on what the evidence shows. We would rather say that than price a programme before anyone has seen the position.
