Hitman Marketing is a Clearwater, Florida agency that sells one thing: a fixed-price contract to put you past the competitor beating you in Google’s map pack and in the AI assistants, inside ninety days. We do the recon and we name the target. Half the fee is due only if it lands, and we take one company per trade.

of local businesses are recommended by ChatGPT. Gemini names 11%, Perplexity 7.4% — against 35.9% for Google’s local pack.

Roughly 45% of people now use an AI assistant to find a local service, up from about 6% a year ago, in BrightLocal’s 2026 consumer survey. The assistants have almost nothing usable to read. We pulled 51 local businesses across four listing platforms: 18 of them sit under one undifferentiated “Home service” category, and three of the four screen-enclosure contractors are filed as mobile phone repair. Claiming the listing does not fix that — five of the eight parked at a bare parent category are verified as claimed.

ChatGPT pulls most of its local answers from Foursquare. Siri uses Apple Business Connect. Copilot uses Bing Places. Every local SEO company in Pinellas County optimizes Google Business Profile and nothing else — and that is not the primary source any of those three read.

That gap is open today. It will not be open in two years.

What we do

AI Search (GEO)

Your customers ask ChatGPT before they ask Google. We make you the answer.

SEO

The full search stack for local service businesses — priced in the open.

AI Operations

Every lead captured, qualified, routed, and followed up — automatically.

Websites

Fast, server-rendered, and structured so both Google and AI can read it.

How we work

The Contract Method

Four stages, fixed checkpoints, deliverables written as counts. You always know what is happening and what we need from you.

How it works

01
Recon
We find out what AI assistants and Google actually say about you today, what your competitors have that you don't, and where the leaks are. Measured, not guessed.
02
Target
One objective per engagement, with deliverables written down as counts rather than adjectives. You know exactly what ships and when.
03
Execute
Listings, site, content, automation — built in the order that produces visible movement soonest, not the order that is easiest to invoice.
04
Confirm
Monthly reporting that shows the trend and states its own limitations. If something isn't working, you hear it from us first.

What you get that most agencies won’t give you

Half on result

Published prices

Every tier, every deliverable, every number on one page. Almost no agency in Pinellas County does this.

You own everything

Domain, hosting, website, Google Business Profile, ad accounts, analytics. We hold delegated access, never the keys.

Honest measurement

AI visibility is non-deterministic and AI referral traffic is under-counted. We say so in every report instead of burying it.

A guarantee with an edge on it

Nobody can guarantee a position, and anyone who does is selling. We guarantee something narrower and checkable: beating one named competitor on one agreed set of queries.

Deliverables as counts

Two posts of up to 1,200 words. Four profile posts. One report. Not 'ongoing content' or 'as needed'.

Six months, then monthly

Long enough for the work to land, short enough that we have to keep earning it. Thirty days' notice after that.

Common questions

What does Hitman Marketing actually do?: One thing, sold as a contract: we survey a market, identify the local business we can take you past in Google's map pack and in assistants like ChatGPT, and publish the price to do it inside ninety days. Listings, website and automation work all still happen — that is how the contract gets delivered, not a separate menu.

Why do you publish your prices?: Because hiding them wastes everyone's time and almost nobody local does it. Published pricing filters out the people we are wrong for, shortens the conversation with the people we are right for, and happens to be what AI assistants quote when someone asks what an agency in Clearwater costs.
Do you only work with Clearwater businesses?: We prefer local — being able to visit a job site produces better work, and a Clearwater address is what makes map pack rankings possible here. The published service area is Clearwater and the five Pinellas towns around it; a contract is priced against a Clearwater target. AI search and automation work is location-independent, so that part travels.

How quickly will I see results?: Listing and AI visibility work often moves in two to six weeks, which is unusually fast. Map pack rankings take three to five months. Organic rankings for competitive terms take six to ten. Automation shows up immediately, because it fixes leakage rather than creating demand. The ninety days in a contract is a different measurement — not arriving at the top of the map pack against the whole field, but ending up ahead of one named business on one fixed set of queries.

What happens if I want to leave?: You take everything, because you already own it — domain, hosting, website, Google Business Profile, ad accounts, analytics. Initial terms run three to twelve months depending on the tier, then month to month with thirty days' notice. Nothing needs recovering, because nothing was held.
