AI for startups and SMEs

In 1996 your business needed a website. Today it needs AI.More customers. Less busywork.

You know AI matters. You just don't have the skills in-house, and big consultancies are priced for corporates. We are the AI team startups and SMEs can actually afford, and we explain everything in plain English.

Built for startups and SMEs

AI expertise without the enterprise price tag.

Small businesses usually have two ways to bring AI in, and both were designed for bigger companies. We are the third way.

Hire a specialist

A full-time salary and months of recruiting before anything is built. One hire rarely covers both your marketing and your systems.

Slow and costly to start

Bring in a big consultancy

Priced and paced for corporates, with long discovery phases and minimum fees that most small businesses cannot justify.

Built for bigger budgets

Work with clickmarketing

One team for AI and marketing together. Fixed prices agreed before work starts, everything built in accounts you own, and your team trained at handover so you are never stuck.

Built for startups and SMEs

Start with a £500 90-minute AI consultation. Builds start at £3,000 and every price is agreed before work begins. See pricing or what AI automation costs.

One connected system

Each part feeds the next.

Automation takes the busywork off your team and makes sure no enquiry slips away. Marketing then brings more of the right people in. What you learn from sales makes the next campaign smarter.

AI automation

Run smoothly

Complaints routed, spreadsheets, stock and invoices kept in sync, and AI agents doing the routine work your team should not have to.

AI automation

Automation + marketing

Win every customer

Every enquiry answered in minutes, scored and followed up in HubSpot or your CRM, with quotes and bookings handled for you.

Lead follow-up

AI-enabled marketing

Get found

SEO, GEO and conversion optimisation so you rank on Google, get recommended by AI and turn visits into enquiries, plus campaigns that build your name.

AI-enabled marketing

Then it loops. Every new customer flows straight into your automations, and real sales, stock levels and reviews feed back into your ads and pages, so each campaign spends where it pays.

Start where it hurts most.

Most clients start on one side. The other side follows once the first is working.

Start with AI automation

"We are drowning in admin."

We connect your tools and add AI agents so leads, complaints, spreadsheets and invoices handle themselves.

Then: we use the hours and the clean data it frees up to grow, with campaigns that know your stock and your best customers.

Start with AI-enabled marketing

"We need more customers."

We get your website ranking on Google, recommended by AI assistants and turning visits into enquiries, then launch campaigns that make people recognise your name.

Then: we connect your CRM so every new lead is answered in minutes and none of the extra work lands on your team.

Side by side

Doing it by hand, or letting it run.

Each row compares the same everyday job.

The job	By hand	With clickmarketing
Being found	A website nobody updates, invisible to AI assistants	Pages that rank and answer the questions people ask ChatGPT
Ad spend	Ads keep running on products you cannot ship	Ads follow your stock and learn from real sales
A new enquiry	Waits until someone checks the inbox	On your phone within seconds and logged in your CRM
An unhappy customer	Read when someone has time	Sent to the right person with the order details attached
Keeping sheets in sync	Copied between files, with the odd missed row	One source of truth that updates every sheet

Your team keeps the work that needs a person: the conversations, the decisions and the relationships.

One path, from first call to growing.

Whichever side you start on, the steps are the same.

See prices for each step

Your tools and your marketing, finally working together.

You own everything

Ad accounts, tools and AI usage sit in your name. No markup and no lock-in.

Sample data first

Nothing touches your live systems until you have seen it work and said yes.

Fixed prices

You agree the price after the Quick-Start, before any work starts.

Real proof only

AI never plays a customer. Reviews and results come from real people.

What people ask first.

Are you a good fit for startups and small businesses?

Yes. That is who we build for: founders, startups and small and medium-sized businesses with no AI or automation specialist on the team. You get the same tools larger companies use without hiring a specialist or paying consultancy rates. We start with a £500 Quick-Start, agree a fixed price before any build, and train your team at handover so you are never dependent on us.

What happens in the 90-minute Growth Quick-Start?

We look at how customers find you and how the work gets done once they do. We review your website, ads and channels, find the tasks that eat the most time, and show you where AI can help on both sides, such as HubSpot follow-ups or Google Ads linked to your stock. You leave with one written plan and fixed prices, whether or not you work with us.

Do I need both automation and marketing?

No. Many clients start with one. The two work best together because automation makes sure no lead or task is dropped, and marketing brings in more of them. Your Quick-Start shows which to do first.

Do I need to understand AI to work with you?

No. You tell us what you want more of and what slows your team down. We choose the tools, build and run them, and explain everything in plain English.

Are software subscriptions, ad spend and AI usage included?

Our fees cover strategy, design, build and running the work. Ad spend, software such as HubSpot, Zapier or Make, and AI usage are paid straight to the provider from your own accounts, with no markup. For most small businesses AI usage is a few pounds a month.

Is my business data safe?

We build and test every automation on sample data first. Your real CRM, inbox and records are only connected after you have reviewed and approved the working version, and everything runs in accounts you own.

Tell us where you want to grow.

Book a 90-minute Growth Quick-Start. We look at your operations and your marketing together, and you get one clear plan for what to do first, what it costs and what it gives back.
