LOCAL SEO FOR CONSULTATION-BASED BUSINESSES
You built a practice worth finding.
The problem is Google doesn’t know it yet.
The Booked-Consult Engine is a five-phase local SEO system built specifically for law firms and healthcare practices. The goal is not rankings. The goal is to book consultations.
WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING
Most local SEO agencies chase rankings.
Your phone still doesn’t ring.
Here’s the pattern: an agency runs your SEO for six months, sends you a report full of keyword positions and traffic graphs, and calls it a win. Meanwhile, your consultation calendar has the same number of open slots it had at the start.
Rankings are not the business outcome. Booked consultations are.
Law firms and healthcare practices run on one thing: a prospect calling, filling out a form, or booking directly. Everything else is noise. That’s what this system is built around.
THE SYSTEM
Five phases. One goal. Consultations booked.
The Booked-Consult Engine is a structured execution system. Each phase builds on the one before it. Nothing skipped, nothing assumed. Here is exactly what we do.
01
Foundation Audit
We start by finding what’s broken before we build anything new. Site structure, Google Business Profile status, existing citations, NAP consistency across directories, and any technical issues blocking local visibility. You get a clear picture of where you stand before a dollar is spent.
02
Google Business Profile Optimization
Your GBP is the single highest-converting local asset you own. Most practices have it set up once and ignored. We fix the category selection, rewrite the business description, clean up the photo library, set up the Q&A section, and build a posting schedule that keeps the profile active. Active profiles rank. Dormant ones don’t.
03
On-Page SEO
We audit and rewrite the pages that matter most: service pages, location pages, and the homepage. Title tags, headers, meta descriptions, internal linking, and schema markup. Every page is built around the searches your ideal client is actually running — not generic industry terms.
04
Citation Building and Cleanup
Inconsistent business information across directories is one of the most common reasons local rankings stall. We clean up existing citations across major directories and build new ones in the platforms that matter for your industry. Consistent NAP everywhere Google looks.
05
Ongoing Content and Authority
This is where the system compounds. Monthly blog posts targeting local search intent, weekly GBP posts, and a review acquisition strategy that keeps your rating active and climbing. This phase runs continuously as long as the retainer is active.
WHAT IT COSTS
Straightforward pricing. No retainer traps.
$1,000
One-time setup fee
Covers the full foundation audit, GBP optimization, on-page SEO across your key pages, and citation cleanup. This is the work that makes everything after it actually stick. Paid once at the start.
$1,000 – $1,500/mo
Monthly retainer
Covers Phase 5 ongoing: content production, GBP posts, review strategy, monthly reporting, and continued optimization. Rate depends on the size of the practice and number of service areas.
Two guarantees:
First: you know exactly what gets delivered every month before the month starts. No vague “ongoing SEO work.” Specific deliverables, in writing, every cycle.
Second: 30-day exit clause. If you decide this is not working, one month’s notice and you’re out. No six-month minimums. No cancellation fees.
RIGHT FIT
This works best for practices with one specific problem.
The Booked-Consult Engine is built for practices that:
- Operate in a specific city or metro area
- Rely on consultations as the primary intake step
- Have a working website, but are not showing up in local search
- Want to fix the visibility problem without hiring an in-house marketing team
Not a fit for:
- Multi-location national chains
- Practices with no existing web presence
- Businesses looking for paid ads management
We do organic local SEO. That is the only thing in this system.
Industries we work with: Criminal defense and family law firms, personal injury practices, estate planning attorneys, chiropractors, physical therapists, and primary care practices.
TRACK RECORD
Real work. Real clients.
We have run local SEO for criminal defense firms, estate planning attorneys, and personal injury practices in Florida and across the US. GBP cleanups, full site restructures, citation audits, and content builds — not strategy decks, actual execution.
We also helped a US-based home services company hit its first million-dollar sales month in March 2026 through the same combination of local SEO, GBP management, and consistent content. Different industry, same system.

WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH
You talk to the person doing the work.
Every time.
My name is Churchill Ratunil. I go by Chill. I have been running SEO for US law firms and service businesses from the Philippines for several years. I currently manage SEO operations for a US legal marketing agency, alongside building Stream SEO Pros.
When you work with the Booked-Consult Engine, there is no account manager between us. You get my direct contact from the first call. If something is not working, I am the first person to know and the first person to fix it.
If your practice should be showing up in local search and it isn’t, let’s figure out why.
30-minute call. I’ll pull your GBP and run a quick local visibility check before we talk so you’re not walking in blind.
