Growth partners for small business

You're a master
of your craft.
We'll handle the growth.

Most small-business owners are great at the work. They're stuck on the growth. Dough builds the four systems that grow what you've built: Sales, Marketing, Design, and AI.

The Gap

What got you this far won't get you to the next level.

The work made the business. Different systems will scale it. Recognize any of these?

"Leads come in waves and I have no follow-up."

Sales runs on memory and momentum, not a system. Hot leads go cold while you're doing the work.

"I post when I can, and it gets nothing."

Marketing is sporadic. No story, no consistency, so the reach plateaus.

"My website doesn't match the quality of my work."

The brand and digital presence undersell what you actually deliver. Buyers can't tell you're the best option.

"Everyone says use AI. I have no idea where to start."

AI sounds like a part-time job to figure out. You want it doing the work, not adding more tabs to your screen.

Growth Impact Areas

Four systems. One growth engine.

Most agencies sell one thing. Owners need all four working together. We build and run all four for you.

$

Sales

Pipeline that books revenue.
  • Lead capture + qualification
  • Outreach sequences (email, LinkedIn)
  • CRM + follow-up automation
  • Proposal & close playbooks

Marketing

Demand on a rhythm.
  • Positioning & story
  • Content engine (social + email)
  • Local + organic SEO
  • Paid where it pays

Design

Presence that matches the work.
  • Brand identity refresh
  • Website (built or rebuilt)
  • Sales & pitch assets
  • Product / packaging visuals

AI

AI doing the busywork.
  • Auto-follow-up after every lead
  • Lead engine (find + qualify)
  • Customer intake handled for you
  • One short report each week: what's working, what isn't
How It Works

Diagnose. Build. Scale.

No 12-month contract before you've seen the work. We start small, show you it works in 30 days, then grow from there.

01

Diagnose

Free 15- or 30-minute call. We figure out where you're stuck across sales, marketing, design, or AI, and pick the one fix that pays for itself first.

02

Build

30-day sprint. We install one growth system end-to-end. You get a working pipeline, brand asset, or AI agent in your hands. Not a slide deck.

03

Scale

Once one pillar is live, we expand to the next. Each system compounds the others. By month six, the whole engine is running.

Pricing

Low friction to start. The work pays from day one.

Pick the entry that fits where you are. Move up when the work pays for itself.

The full growth engine, at a founding rate.

We're taking on a handful of founding partners at a reduced rate. You get all four growth systems (Sales, Marketing, Design, and AI) installed and run for you. In exchange, you help us prove the model with a real case study and a few warm introductions. It isn't free, and it isn't for everyone. We talk first and decide together if it's a fit.

Apply for a founding seat

The trade

  1. You commit to the full 90-day Full-Stack Growth engagement.
  2. You build a short, honest case study with us once we land a win.
  3. You introduce us to 3 small-business owners worth a conversation.

In return, you get the full engine at a founding rate we set together once we know it's a fit.

Who We Work For

Owners who are great at the work.

If you're the best in your zip code at what you do, and your growth doesn't show it yet, we built this for you.

Workshops & Talks

Want me to teach your group AI for business?

I run plain-English AI workshops for business owners. No jargon, no hype. Just the systems they can use to find leads, follow up, and free up their week. Great for networking groups, chambers, and local business meetups.
