Everything your small business needs to stay online, visible, and current.

No. It’s designed for true local and small businesses, startups, and solopreneurs whose needs fit the defined plan. Professional practices, growing B2B companies, established or larger businesses, and community career schools are served through other CVDMG services and engagements.

If this plan isn’t the right fit, we’ll point you toward the more appropriate next step.

Small Business Essentials is designed for eligible small, primarily consumer-facing businesses whose needs fit a standardized managed-marketing scope. Some organization types and more complex marketing models are not eligible.

There’s no setup fee. The work defined in Small Business Essentials is covered by the $199 monthly price. If you ask for work outside the plan, or need a third-party product outside our normal platform stack, we’ll explain the scope and cost before anything moves forward.

You get a professionally customized, mobile-friendly website built with a premium WordPress theme or another CVDMG-managed website platform that fits the business and project. Depending on what your business reasonably needs, that may be a focused one-page site or a site with up to five core pages.

The included website is built within a clear small-business scope. New pages, major redesigns, ecommerce, custom development, and new functionality are separate work.

Possibly. We’ll review what you already have first. If the website is well-built, stable, and something we can confidently support, we’ll reuse what makes sense and improve it. If it’s outdated, poorly built, unstable, or would take more work to untangle than rebuild, we’ll tell you that and recommend starting fresh. We won’t take over a website we can’t confidently stand behind.

The monthly refresh is for a focused content change to the existing site. The quarterly revision allows a broader update to an existing page or section. The annual polish is a coordinated review of the existing site’s content and presentation.

These services keep the website current within its existing structure. They don’t bank or combine into new pages, a major redesign, or new functionality.

We can help establish or claim the profile, clean up and appropriately optimize it, keep the core business information accurate, review categories and service areas, update hours and assets, and periodically check the profile for issues.

Responding to and managing customer reviews isn’t included in Small Business Essentials. That deeper reputation work is part of the $399/month Get Found: Core plan.

We prepare eight posts each month for one primary platform: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, or Google Business Profile. That includes copy, basic graphics or image treatment, formatting, scheduling, and publishing.

You’ll have one reasonable consolidated revision round for each monthly batch. We’ll get approval before publishing unless you give us standing authorization. You may switch the selected platform once during the life of the engagement, with the change taking effect in the next monthly cycle.

You provide and maintain the customer list. We write, design, format, schedule, and send one customer email each quarter. List building, lead generation, and automated email sequences aren’t included.

The plan includes up to five domain-based mailboxes, with 1 GB of storage for each mailbox.

Paid advertising and ad spend, major website expansion or new pages, ecommerce, custom development or software, video production, advanced SEO or strategy, and reputation or community management aren’t included.

If you need something outside the plan, we’ll explain the scope and cost before any additional work begins.

We’ll need timely access to your accounts, accurate business information, available brand assets, and reasonably prompt feedback and approvals. We’ll make the process clear, but we can’t complete or publish work that’s waiting on information or approval from your side.

Your first 90 days are the setup period, when the website build, cleanup, setup, and content foundation happen. After the full 90 days, the plan continues month-to-month.

You can cancel after the setup period with 14 days’ formal written notice that clearly states your intent to cancel. Email counts as written notice. The plan doesn’t include a formal pause or freeze option.

Yes. For questions, requests, and troubleshooting within the plan, you can reach a real person by phone, email, or text during normal business hours. The plan doesn’t include unlimited consulting or support for services outside its scope.

No. Included services are scheduled for their monthly, quarterly, or annual cycle and don’t bank, stack, or roll over. If access, information, assets, feedback, or approval arrive late, that delay doesn’t create extra work in a later period.

You own your approved copy, client-specific content, and business assets, and you should own your domain. The website is hosted and maintained within the CVDMG or Creative Visions Live 365 environment while you subscribe.

If you leave, we’ll cooperate with a reasonable transition. Substantial export, migration, rebuilding, or platform conversion may need to be quoted separately. Our proprietary systems, templates, licenses, infrastructure, and nontransferable third-party components aren’t transferred.

A platform change after launch is treated as a new website build, not a normal revision. It requires a new agreement, separate scope, and separate pricing.
