SEO & GEO for Professional Services Businesses
Own the hire-intent searches that fill discovery calls and retainer benches.
Capture Professional Services Demand
Decision-makers vet licenses, compare partner bios, open “CPA near me” and “business attorney” results, and ask generative tools which shop belongs on an RFP shortlist. Altus charts those hiring motives by specialty, then plants your practice inside the search, Maps, and assistant answers executives already rely on.
Inventory Hire-Ready Search Themes
We catalog discovery-call, proposal, retainer, and credential motifs by specialty and metro so targeting mirrors how procurement and owners actually select counsel or advisors.
Broadcast Licenses & Proof Points
We refine Business Profiles, specialty and partner URLs, and trust narratives so prospects feel assured before they schedule an exploratory conversation.
Secure Pack + Assistant Mentions
We chase organic placements, professional map packs, and generative citations whenever someone asks which firm to engage, brief, or invite into a proposal round.
How a Typical Engagement Is Structured
Advisory and counsel programs begin with a prospect intent diagnostic grounded in your specialty mix, rival shops, and intake flow, then settle into a steady authority publishing and pipeline scorecard cadence.
Prospect Intent Diagnostic
We examine intake routes, specialty and partner URLs, Business Profiles, rival practices, and local-plus-enterprise demand, then draft an annual roadmap tied to discovery calls, proposal invites, and signed retainers.
Practice Authority Engine
We produce specialty primers, credential and partner features, service URLs, profile refreshes, and on-site upgrades that raise organic intake and shortlist mentions beyond referral reliance alone.
Retainer Pipeline Reporting
Monthly scorecards highlight intake form volume, proposal invitations, ranking shifts, and acquisition-cost patterns so you double down on the motifs that widen your bench of clients.
