Turn the internet into
your best salesperson.
When people turn to the web, they're already looking. Great SEO makes sure they find you first — not your competitor with the same idea but fewer clever puns. We build strategies that increase visibility, establish brand authority, and create momentum that compounds.
Why SEO matters
Visibility that compounds
The higher you rank, the more clicks you get. The more clicks, the more search engines love you. Rinse and repeat.
Evergreen traffic
Paid ads stop when the budget runs out. Organic traffic doesn't.
Builds trust
People trust what they find on page one. We'll help you earn your spot.
Optimized UX
Good SEO = better site structure, faster load times, cleaner copy. A win for users and Google.
Fix what's slowing you down. Fast.
If something's holding your site back, we'll find it. If there's an edge to gain, we'll show you where.
Your website has one job: to perform. This audit cuts through the noise, analyzes every critical area, and gives you a clear path forward — no guesswork, no fluff.

Real clients, real compounding traffic — the numbers every business loves.
Make every page perform. Period.
We optimize for algorithms AND impact — one page at a time.

Content without strategy is just noise. We build and optimize blog content that supports your business goals — whether that's ranking, educating, converting, or all three. If it doesn't drive results, it doesn't make the cut.
When your content is built right, this is where your business lands.

Let's make your social actually social.
Sharp content, smart strategy, and real community building — that's our game.
Be the answer.
Control the narrative.
AI isn't just changing how people search — it's changing how they decide. Generative AI is now a trusted "answer engine" for millions, and your brand either shows up in that answer… or it disappears. We make your brand discoverable, cited, and trusted across today's and tomorrow's AI models.
Why AIM matters
AI is already shaping buying decisions. When people use tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude, they're trusting a single, synthesized answer. If your brand isn't in that answer, you're invisible.
Defensible demand capture
Secure your spot in AI-generated answers for the questions that matter.
Reputation control
Ensure the "official story" comes from you — not a random third-party.
Operational leverage
Turn your documentation into AI-consumable knowledge that serves customers 24/7.
Future-proof presence
The AI landscape changes fast. We optimize for today while preparing for what's next.
Show up where your audience is already asking.
The early adopters will own the space.
We optimize your content to increase the likelihood your brand is surfaced in AI-generated responses for high-value queries. AI is still learning who the credible voices are in every industry — we make sure your business is one of them.
What You Get
- Targeted topic clusters designed for AI model retrieval
- Schema, entity optimization, and structured data
- "Answer Presence Rate" tracking
- Cross-model optimization across providers
Don't just be in the answer — be the one it cites.
Authoritative source citations build lasting trust.
We create sourceable assets that models trust and link to, from definitive guides to unique research. This positions your site as a trusted reference whenever AI tools provide sourced answers.
When the model names a source, make sure it names yours — that's how authority compounds.
Your 24/7, brand-accurate representative.
Turn internal expertise into a top-performing AI customer service rep.
We document your processes, FAQs, and product info in a way that AI can consume and serve back accurately — decreasing service calls and making customers self-sufficient.
What You Get
- AI-consumable product, policy, and process docs
- Governance to keep info accurate and risk-free
- Accuracy monitoring to catch misrepresentation
- Universal message across AI platforms
Be everywhere the answers are.
Recognized across multiple AI systems — not just one provider.
We implement standards and structures that make your brand's data accessible to multiple AI models — today and in the future — reducing platform risk through diversification.
Don't bet your traffic on one algorithm — get cited by whichever model wins next.
See your AI impact in numbers that matter.
Don't just measure — anticipate.
We plug AI into your analytics to help predict what's coming, identify gaps early, and stay ahead of performance drops. Clear metrics, real direction.
Metrics We Track
- Answer Presence Rate (appearance in AI responses)
- Citation Rate (how often your domain is credited)
- Accuracy Score (how faithfully models represent you)
- Support Impact (ticket deflection, CSAT)
The future is already here.
In a few years, customers won't be "Googling" you — they'll be asking AI about you. When that happens, the brands showing up in AI answers will win. The ones who don't? They'll wonder where the traffic went.
Regulated industries
Where accuracy and compliance are critical.
Multi-location brands
With location-specific information to surface correctly.
High-support businesses
With detailed documentation to leverage.
Thought leaders
Who benefit from consistent, credible exposure.
Be the brand AI trusts.
The models are already answering. Let's make sure you're part of the answer.

"I don't know what this is called, but I know I need it."
That's exactly why this page exists. Let's build your custom solution.
We left the corporate grind
to chase something wilder — and smarter.
We're Clay, Mike, and Dave — three former finance-tech guys who met while implementing AP automation for businesses stuck in a maze of inefficiencies. Somewhere between broken systems and bad coffee, we realized something: businesses don't just need tools. They need strategy, identity, and a way to scale without burning out or blending in.
So, like any clever foxes, we made our move.
The team behind Mad Fox
Clay
The Creative Wizard
Creative, curious, and slightly chaotic (in the best way). Equal parts marketing mischief-maker and grounded tech wizard. He builds from the ground up — and asks the sharpest questions on the way.
Mike
The Strategist
The brain behind the operation. Focused, driven, and the guy who always sees ten steps ahead. If you need strategy with substance, Mike's already building it.
Dave
The Engine
The fearless engine of the team. He'll talk to anyone, outwork anything, and bring the energy no matter what time it is. If hustle were a sport, Dave's in the hall of fame.
We may disagree (often passionately) about formatting, spacing, and which font deserves the homepage… but we're completely aligned on this: businesses need better ways to build recognition, connection, and authority — and we're here to help make that happen.
Foxes are clever. Adaptable. Strategic.
They don't follow the herd — they outsmart it. That's exactly how we approach SEO, SEM, and SMM.
Whether you're a growing brand, a funded startup, or a business finally ready to stop relying on referrals, we craft digital strategies that actually scale — without selling your soul to the algorithm gods.
Utah's Silicon Slopes.
We're based in the heart of Utah's tech corridor, but we work with clients from coast to coast (and beyond).
If you've got internet, we've got ideas.
Our core principles
- Every brand deserves to be known — not just visible.
- Strategy beats noise, every time.
- Growth is good. Scalable growth is better.
- Cookie cutters are for cookies, not clients.
- Honest, clever marketing gets remembered.
- Listen before executing — true strategy starts there.
Before we write a single line of copy, we dive deep.
We ask questions. We look under the hood. We actually get to know your business. Our expansive discovery phase ensures we understand your goals, voice, customers, and challenges — so when we build, we build with precision.
Whether you're looking for brand visibility, lead generation, or a full-funnel strategy, we'll make sure the plan fits your business — not the other way around.
We keep work in-house. We keep strategy sharp. We keep client relationships real.
Great work that fuels great lives.
We're here to build something that lasts — for our clients, our families, and our future. That means showing up, solving hard problems, and staying obsessed with improvement.
We don't want to be the biggest agency. We want to be the one you trust, remember, and recommend.
Want to work with a team that knows what it's doing — and actually enjoys doing it?

What is the difference between SEM and SEO?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and SEM (Search Engine Marketing) both aim to put your business in front of people searching on Google — but they get there in fundamentally different ways.
SEO is about earning your spot in the unpaid (organic) results through high-quality content, technical site health, authoritative backlinks, and a great user experience. It compounds over time and continues working even when you stop spending — but it takes months to mature.
SEM typically refers to paid search ads (like Google Ads) that appear at the top of the results page. You pay per click, and the moment you turn the budget off, the traffic stops. The upside? Visibility starts in hours, not months — and you can target specific intent with surgical precision.
The short version
- SEO = long-term traffic engine, slower to start
- SEM = paid demand capture, fast and measurable
- Most winning strategies use both
How long does it take to see results?
SEM is one of the fastest-acting marketing channels available. Once your campaigns are launched and approved by Google (typically within 1–2 business days), your ads start appearing in front of qualified searchers immediately.
You'll usually see impressions and clicks within the first day, and meaningful conversion data within the first 2–4 weeks. From there, performance compounds as we use real bidding data to refine keywords, audiences, and ad creative.
A realistic timeline
- Day 1–7: Campaign live, traffic flowing, baseline data forming
- Week 2–4: Initial optimizations based on real conversion behavior
- Month 2–3: Refined audience targeting and creative testing show clear ROAS gains
- Month 4+: Mature campaigns deliver predictable, scalable performance
Patience pays — but unlike SEO, you don't have to wait months to know if it's working.
How much does it cost to run an SEM campaign?
SEM cost is highly flexible and depends on three big variables: your industry, your goals, and your geography. Some industries (insurance, legal, finance) have cost-per-clicks of $20+, while local services or niche e-commerce might pay $1–3 per click.
Typical monthly ad spend ranges
- Local / small business: $1,000 – $3,000/mo
- Mid-market: $3,000 – $10,000/mo
- Enterprise / competitive verticals: $10,000+/mo
On top of ad spend, agencies charge a management fee — at MAD Fox we structure this transparently so you know exactly what's going to Google and what's covering strategy, optimization, and creative.
The right number isn't "what's cheapest" — it's the budget that lets you compete in your auction without cannibalizing margin. We'll model that with you before you spend a dollar.
What are the benefits of using SEM?
SEM is one of the few marketing channels where your ad shows up at the exact moment a person is actively searching for what you sell. That intent — and the speed at which you can act on it — is the whole game.
The biggest wins
- Instant visibility — show up at the top of page one, day one
- Pinpoint targeting — bid on exact keywords, locations, devices, and audiences
- Total measurability — every dollar tied to clicks, leads, and revenue
- Scalable — when something works, you can confidently increase spend
- Complements SEO — paid traffic feeds learning that improves organic strategy
Used right, SEM is the closest thing in marketing to a tap you can turn on for revenue.
How do search ads get placed?
Every time someone searches on Google, an instant auction runs in the background — and your ad's position is decided in milliseconds. But contrary to popular belief, the highest bidder doesn't always win. Google ranks ads by something called Ad Rank.
What Ad Rank considers
- Your bid — what you're willing to pay per click
- Quality Score — how relevant your keywords, ads, and landing page are
- Expected click-through rate — historical data on how often people click your ads
- Ad extensions and assets — sitelinks, callouts, and structured snippets
- Search context — device, location, time of day, and search intent
This is why a smaller advertiser with a tightly-built campaign can routinely outrank a bigger spender with sloppy ads. Smart structure beats raw budget.
Will AI Marketing replace Google Advertising?
Short answer: not anytime soon — but it will absolutely reshape how Google Ads work, and how much they're worth, over the next 3–5 years.
Generative AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude) are quickly becoming the first place people go when they have a question. Each query answered by an AI is a query that didn't happen on Google — and that means fewer eyeballs on traditional ads. AI-generated answers are slowly compressing the top of the funnel.
Meanwhile, Google itself is integrating AI into search results (AI Overviews), pushing organic links further down the page and changing the value of clicks. So the answer isn't "replace" — it's "redistribute." The advertisers who adapt by becoming the cited source in AI answers (and not just the top bid in Google) will dominate the next era.
Is AI Marketing cost effective?
For most businesses, yes — and increasingly so. AI Marketing tends to have lower marginal cost per outcome than traditional paid channels because the work is upstream (creating sourceable content, building structured data, optimizing for citations) rather than downstream (paying per click, forever).
Where the savings come from
- No per-click spend — citations in AI answers don't cost per impression
- Compounding presence — once you're a trusted source, you stay one
- Cross-platform leverage — the same content can be cited by Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity
- 24/7 brand representative — AI tools answer customer questions even when your team's offline
The catch: it's a slower-burn channel. Don't expect lead-gen overnight — expect compounding visibility over 3–9 months that gets cheaper per result the longer you invest in it.
How is AI marketing different from traditional marketing?
Traditional marketing is built around interruption and attention — buy ad space, get in front of someone who wasn't looking for you, and convince them to care. It's measured in impressions, clicks, and conversions per dollar.
AI Marketing flips that model. Instead of buying attention, you're becoming the answer to questions people are already asking AI tools. The work isn't ad placement — it's positioning your brand as the most trustworthy, citable, and structured source on a topic.
Key differences
- Channel: Traditional = ad networks. AIM = AI answer engines and LLMs.
- Currency: Traditional = ad budget. AIM = authority and content.
- Pacing: Traditional = on/off. AIM = compounding over months.
- Measurement: Traditional = impressions/CPC. AIM = citation rate and share-of-answer.
The two work best together — traditional gets you visibility today, AIM secures your place tomorrow.
Is AI-generated content "safe" for my brand's reputation?
It depends entirely on how it's used. Mass-produced, unedited AI content is one of the fastest ways to tank a brand's authority — and Google has become increasingly good at detecting and demoting it. So the worry is real.
But used responsibly, AI is a force multiplier. The right approach is AI-assisted, human-led: use AI to draft, structure, and accelerate — but always have a subject-matter expert review, fact-check, and add original insight. That's the difference between content that builds trust and content that erodes it.
Our principles
- Every AI-assisted asset is fact-checked by a human
- Original research and proprietary data take priority over generic synthesis
- Brand voice and tone are codified and enforced — not left to defaults
- Editorial review catches hallucinations before they hit the public
Done right, your audience won't know the AI was involved — and neither will the algorithms.
What is the ROI for AI marketing?
Honest answer: ROI on AIM is harder to measure than paid search — but when it lands, the multiplier is much higher because the cost basis stays roughly flat while results compound.
How we measure it
- Citation rate — how often your brand is referenced in AI answers for relevant queries
- Share-of-answer — your % presence in answers vs. competitors
- Referral traffic from AI tools — Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini are now traffic sources
- Branded search lift — increased searches for your brand name itself
- Pipeline attribution — leads who self-report finding you via AI
Early-mover clients are reporting 2–4× more inbound leads attributed to AI discovery in the past 12 months alone, with lower acquisition costs than paid search. Full payback typically lands between months 4 and 9 of consistent investment.
Is social search replacing Google?
Not replacing — but redistributing, especially for younger audiences. According to Google's own internal data, around 40% of Gen Z now starts product and lifestyle searches on TikTok or Instagram instead of Google. For that audience, social search is the default.
But Google still dominates high-intent commercial queries (services, B2B, technical questions). The smart approach isn't picking sides — it's showing up well on both. A query like "best running shoes for flat feet" might begin on TikTok with a creator review, and end on Google with a brand comparison search.
What this means for your strategy
- Social search is now part of SEO, not separate from it
- Captions, hashtags, and on-screen text on social need to be searchable
- Brand presence on multiple platforms is no longer optional
What is the difference between social media management and marketing?
The terms get used interchangeably, but they're really two different jobs.
Social media management is the day-to-day execution: posting content, scheduling, responding to comments and DMs, monitoring brand mentions, and keeping the lights on. It's brand stewardship — making sure your channels feel alive, on-brand, and responsive.
Social media marketing is the strategic layer above that: defining the story you're trying to tell, planning the campaigns that drive growth, running paid promotion, partnering with creators, and measuring how all of it ties to revenue or brand lift.
The best programs include both — strong management without strategy is busywork; strong strategy without management is a great deck and an empty feed.
Is influencer marketing still effective for businesses?
Yes — but the model has matured. The "post on a celebrity's feed and watch sales spike" era is largely over. What works today is strategic creator partnerships built around trust, fit, and audience overlap.
What's actually working
- Micro and nano creators (5k–100k followers) consistently outperform mega-influencers on engagement rate and conversion
- Long-term ambassadors beat one-off posts — repeat exposure builds real trust
- UGC (user-generated content) campaigns turn customers into your most credible advocates
- Performance-based deals (affiliate + flat) align creator incentives with yours
The brands seeing the biggest returns aren't spending the most — they're picking the right creators and giving them creative freedom inside clear brand guardrails.
Should I spend money on boosting posts or ads manager?
Almost always: Ads Manager.
The "Boost Post" button is convenient and tempting — and that's the trap. It's designed for ease of use, not performance. You give up the targeting precision, A/B testing, placement control, optimization goals, and reporting depth that Ads Manager gives you.
What Boost Post can't do
- Optimize for conversions, leads, or sales (not just reach/engagement)
- Target detailed custom or lookalike audiences
- Place ads precisely (Stories, Reels, Feed, Audience Network)
- A/B test creative or copy systematically
- Build a retargeting funnel
The same dollar spent in Ads Manager will typically deliver 2–5× the actionable result. Boost is fine for occasional brand awareness on a strong organic post — but for revenue-driving campaigns, always go through Ads Manager.
What are the benefits of marketing on social media?
Social media is one of the few marketing channels where you can build awareness, community, and conversion in the same place — and reach genuinely massive audiences without massive budgets.
The core benefits
- Audience scale — billions of users across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, X, and LinkedIn
- Precise targeting — interests, behaviors, demographics, lookalikes
- Two-way relationship — you're not just talking at customers, you're talking with them
- Cost flexibility — works at $500/mo or $50,000/mo budgets
- Real-time feedback — see what works in hours, not quarters
- Brand humanization — show personality, point of view, and people behind the logo
- Trust building — testimonials, reviews, and UGC turn customers into the marketing
Done right, social isn't a marketing channel — it's how modern brands stay relevant.
