Hi, I'm Brandon.
I help small service businesses get more calls and bookings.
I've been in marketing going on 20 years, many of them running performance marketing for tech companies. For the last six years I've worked on my own, building the systems that bring small service businesses steady work: websites that turn visitors into calls, Google Ads, local search, and the automation behind them.
I have a heart for Christian business owners, and I price my work so a small business can afford it.
What I do
Most owners I work with are great at their trade and short on time for marketing. I set up the pieces that bring customers in, then keep them running.
-
A website that gets people to call
Fast on a phone, clear about what you do, with call, directions and booking one tap away.
-
Showing up on Google and Maps
Your Google Business Profile, your reviews and local search, so people nearby can find you.
-
Google Ads
Ads that show when someone in your area searches for what you do, on a budget you set.
-
Follow-up that runs itself
Automatic texts and emails after a visit: reminders, aftercare, and a link to leave a review.

What two owners wrote on Google
★★★★★
I own Golden Child Tattoo & Piercing in Escondido. A buddy who owns a studio in Texas recommended Brandon to me. I was hesitant, because a family member did SEO for me back in the day and I never saw anything come of it. Brandon built our shop website and my personal site, including online booking, deposits and a digital waiver. He also helps us get found through Google Ads and SEO. Every client gets aftercare and a follow-up with a review link, and we went from under 100 Google reviews to almost 900. I don't think I would have expanded the shop without it. It takes a little time, but trust the process. The proof is in the pudding.

I tattoo out of a private suite in Hendersonville, just outside Nashville. A tattooer friend of mine referred me to Brandon back when I was working in San Diego. Rising Ink got my scheduling, calendar, follow-ups, website and marketing organized, and put into words who I am and what I do, which I'd have a hard time doing myself. I watched my books go from two weeks out to 90 days. When I moved to the Nashville area, nobody knew me from Adam, and we built my clientele back up from nothing with Rising Ink. Now I stay fully booked. It takes a load off so I can focus on my artwork. You got to spend it to make it, and it works.
Want to talk?
Send me a text or an email and I'll get back to you. If you'd rather talk it through, book a time on my calendar. If I'm not the right fit for what you need, I'll tell you, and point you somewhere better if I can.
One heads-up: I don't pick up numbers I don't know. You probably get as many spam calls as I do. A text is the surest way to reach me.
