Working Brighton as a counsellor
Brighton is a particular kind of market. Seaside resort, Regency architecture, cultural capital of the South, Royal Pavilion. The housing is mostly regency terraces and squares, victorian and edwardian seaside villas, modern marina developments. We see calls coming from Kemptown, Hove, and the surrounding BN postcodes. If you cover those areas and you are not in the top of Google for them, that is the leak.
Looking at our existing counsellors, the calls in Brighton come overwhelmingly from Hanover, Rottingdean and the catchment around Haywards Heath. The counsellor jobs in Brighton are usually work-related stress or anxiety and depression, and the customer base is shaped by the property mix in those neighbourhoods.
What We Do
Across the counsellors we have spoken to in Brighton, the same pattern keeps coming up. The counsellors ranking in the top three of Google Maps for Brighton get most of the calls. Not a DIY platform. Not a course. Not a coaching call. We do all of it for you. Website, Google profile, reviews, SEO, missed-call recovery, monthly report. Done.
Most counsellors in Brighton we work with already have a website that is not ranking for counsellor searches and a Google profile that is half-empty. We rebuild the counsellor website on faster infrastructure and rebuild the counsellor profile from scratch with proper categories, photos and weekly posts.
Most counsellors get the same kinds of calls: work-related stress, anxiety and depression, and bereavement support. Counsellors who show up first when somebody types those phrases into Google get the lion's share of the calls in their area.
Why Counsellors Lose Calls Around Here
For counsellors covering Brighton, the part of this most owners miss is the local search angle. The counsellor customers in Brighton Google your trade plus a neighbourhood name, and only the top three results get the call. The brutal version: if you Googled your own business name plus your town right now, and you're not on page one with a full Google profile, photos, and reviews, you're losing work every week. Maybe every day.
Real Clients We Already Run
Here is what we tell counsellors working Brighton and the surrounding areas when they ask the obvious question. The Google ranking for counsellor searches in Brighton is decided by the things most counsellors never touch. Right now we run online presence for seven UK businesses: plumbers in Pontyclun, Nottingham and Cheshunt, a heating engineer in Liverpool, another near Battle, a paving company in Staines, and a bathroom fitter in Blackpool. Real businesses, real card payments every month.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO work includes weekly Google Business Profile posts, a monthly fresh photo upload, citation consistency checks across the 30 directories Google watches, on-page optimisation tweaks based on what is ranking, and weekly position tracking. No copy-paste reports.
Missed-Call Text-Back
It is the cheapest way to get an immediate uplift in jobs because the customers were already calling you. They just gave up when nobody answered. The auto-text catches them mid-give-up and turns them back into a real conversation.
Review Automation
The reviews bit is fully automated: a text goes out after each job with a direct link to your Google review page. Customers tap once and they are typing the review. About one in three actually leaves one, which is roughly five times the industry average.
What It Costs
Right then, the money. £199 setup (covers your website, yours to keep), £199 a month for management. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month. Three months, then you decide.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
One job from Google pays for the month. The price is £199 setup and £199 a month. Less than £6.70 a day. Cancel after the third month if it isn't working out.
What do you actually do every month?
Specifically: build and host your website, run your Google Business Profile weekly, set up review automation, set up missed-call text-back, write four blog posts a month, send a monthly report. That is the full list.
Do I need to do anything technical?
Nothing technical, no. We do all the work. You give us the basic details, we handle the rest. If something needs your input we will text or email and ask in plain English.
What if I already have a website?
Most of our current clients had a website before us. We brought theirs across without losing any URLs or domain authority. Yours would work the same way.
How long until I see results?
Different things move at different speeds. The missed-call system catches calls from day one. Google profile changes show in days. Search rankings take months. We are upfront about all of this from the start.
Can I cancel?
Three months, then it is month-to-month. Cancel by text. The website stays online (you keep the domain and the site), we just stop running the SEO and Google profile side of it.
