Marketing brings in leads. Sales closes them. On paper, the process seems simple. In reality, many businesses struggle not because marketing or sales is failing individually, but because the two aren’t aligned. That disconnect creates a costly gap. At Corey Consulting, we often see businesses investing heavily in lead generation while revenue remains inconsistent. The […]
Marketing can appear to be working on the surface. Ads are driving clicks. SEO is increasing traffic. Social media is generating attention. Yet conversions remain inconsistent and leads feel lower than expected. Often, the issue isn’t the marketing itself. It’s the website speed. At Corey Consulting, we frequently see strong campaigns underperform because the website […]
One of the most common questions small business owners ask is how much they should spend on marketing. The answers online range from vague percentages to aggressive investment strategies, leaving many unsure of what makes sense for their situation. The truth is, there isn’t a universal number.

Google’s AI Overviews are changing how users interact with search results. Instead of simply displaying links, Google now summarizes information directly in the results page, highlighting sources it considers trustworthy and relevant. For many businesses, this raises a concern: Do we need to rebuild our entire website to stay visible? In most cases, the answer […]

Many businesses are more visible online than ever before. Their website shows up in search results, social media posts are active, and ads are running consistently. Yet despite all that visibility, the phone stays quiet. At Corey Consulting, we see this disconnect often. Visibility alone doesn’t guarantee inquiries. What matters is whether your online presence […]
Many businesses believe authority online is built by constant posting. Daily content, endless social updates, and nonstop activity can feel like the only way to stay relevant. In reality, authority has far less to do with frequency and far more to do with consistency, credibility, and clarity. At Corey Consulting, we help businesses build authority […]
In today’s digital landscape, it’s easy for marketing to look active without actually driving growth.
