Why Leveret Drive

One team, one plan,
all of it in step.

Strategy, websites, video, ads, social, and design all live under one roof, so every piece of your marketing pulls in the same direction. We work the city the way the city works: block by block. A homeowner pricing a roof in the Grosse Pointes buys differently than a developer renovating a loft off Michigan Avenue, so we build for each one, and I-96 puts us at your door in about 50 minutes whenever you want us there.

How we meet

Easy on Zoom, there when it counts.

Most meetings happen on Zoom, which keeps things quick and easy. For filming and other on-site needs, we come to your Detroit location.

Neighborhood by neighborhood

A city of neighborhoods.

Corktown, Midtown, Eastern Market, Southwest, and the east side each have their own search habits and word of mouth networks. We target them separately because they buy separately.

Right sized for you

Big league rigor, right sized for you.

You get the discipline of a major agency, with careful tracking, testing, and accountability, at a scale that fits your business.

How we work

A sharper message and a
wider path to your door.

In a market this big, a clear order of operations makes every dollar work harder. We follow the same proven sequence, and each stage makes the next one stronger.

01

Walk the territory

Before anything launches, we map who is winning your category across the metro, what customers in your neighborhoods search for, and where your best opportunities are.

02

Frame the structure

Website, Google Business Profile, tracking, and message get built on a solid foundation first, so every visitor lands somewhere that converts.

03

Open the taps

Local SEO, paid campaigns, and content go live in sequence, each measured against one thing: qualified leads from the neighborhoods you serve.

04

Grow month after month

Clear reporting, steady iteration, and honest recommendations keep your system gaining ground long after launch.

Five years ago, SEO meant ranking on page one of Google. Today, half the time your customers never see a list of links. They ask ChatGPT, they read Google's AI overview, and they get one answer. If your business isn't that answer, it's like you're on the second page of Google.

About AI

How we're leading the way with AI search.

ChatGPT Google Gemini Claude Perplexity Microsoft Copilot Grok
AI at Leveret Drive

We make you the answer AI gives.

When customers ask, AI recommends you.

Your customers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI overviews and get one recommendation. We structure your website and content so that recommendation is you.

A person reading an AI assistant's answer on their phone
60%

of Google searches now end without a click. The answer arrives before the click does.

01 The shift
One answer, not ten links

AI now answers customers directly. Being that answer is the new page one of Google.

02 What we do
We make you citable

Schema, declarative copy, and topical authority. Your site built so AI can read, trust, and cite it.

03 What you get
Customers arrive sold

When AI recommends you by name, the comparison shopping is already over.

Where we work

Detroit and the
surrounding areas.

Detroit work rarely stays inside the city limits, so our coverage follows the jobs across the metro.

Core market

Detroit

The whole city, worked neighborhood by neighborhood, Corktown and Southwest, Midtown and Eastern Market, out to the east side blocks along Mack and Gratiot.

North

Royal Oak

Up Woodward past the Zoo, a dense, walkable downtown where great marketing stands out fast.

West

Dearborn

Ford country: a huge, loyal customer base west of the city that rewards businesses who show up consistently and speak to the community directly.

Northwest

Southfield

The office towers and corridors along the Lodge and Northwestern Highway, prime territory for firms, practices, and B2B service providers.

East

The Grosse Pointes

Five lakefront communities east of Alter Road, where high value homes meet homeowners who research carefully before calling.

Inner ring

Ferndale & Hazel Park

The 8 Mile and Woodward inner ring, with young homeowners and steady year round demand for the trades.

Our office is in Brighton, Michigan, and I-96 runs door to door, roughly 50 minutes from our parking lot to Corktown. Shoots, kickoffs, and strategy sessions happen at your place whenever the work calls for it.

Pricing is built around your business: its size, its goals, and the scope of the systems you need. Single projects like a website or brand identity are priced flat; ongoing marketing is a monthly partnership, and most clients invest between $2,500 and $10,000 per month depending on how fast they intend to grow. After your initial strategy session you'll get a detailed proposal in writing, so you know exactly what you're getting before anything begins. Never a surprise invoice.

Leveret Drive is a full-service marketing agency offering branding, website design, SEO and AI search optimization, social media management, graphic design, paid advertising (PPC), and video production. Everything is built to work together, not as a disconnected campaign. Most choose to benefit from the full marketing system, but some choose one service and grow from there.

It varies by channel. Paid ads generate data and leads within weeks; SEO and AI search visibility typically build over three to six months; branding pays off from day one and keeps paying for years. We set honest timelines by channel up front so you always know what to expect and when.

AI search optimization is the practice of structuring your website so AI tools like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity cite your business when people ask them for recommendations. A growing share of buyers now research through AI before ever visiting a website, if your business isn't structured to be found there, you're invisible in those moments. We build it into every website we make.

Local search rewards relevance in the neighborhoods you serve. We build it with Google Business Profile optimization, reviews, citations, service area pages, geo targeted ads, and content tied to real Detroit locations. It is a playbook proven across Southeast Michigan, and it works block by block.

All of Detroit proper, including Corktown, Midtown, Eastern Market, Southwest, and the east side, plus the first ring around it: Dearborn, Southfield, Ferndale, Hazel Park, Royal Oak, and the Grosse Pointes. Most clients pull work from several of those areas at once, so we build campaigns around your real service footprint.

We batch them and make them count. Video shoot days, strategy reviews, and project kickoffs happen in person at your Detroit location, and the weekly execution runs remotely, which keeps your costs down.

No, we earn the partnership month over month. Projects are scoped with clear deliverables and timelines, and ongoing work continues because it's producing results, not because a contract traps you. Every agreement spells out scope, terms, and how changes are handled before you sign.

We track the metrics that connect to revenue, leads, calls, bookings, and sales, not vanity numbers. You get plain-English reporting on what we did, what it produced, and what we're adjusting next, so you always know exactly what your marketing is returning.

Yes, small and mid-sized businesses are who we serve best. Businesses with excellent reputations and word-of-mouth deserve marketing that matches, and our strategies are sized to real budgets and real teams, whether you're local to us or anywhere else.

We'll chat through your goals, review where your marketing stands today, and identify your biggest opportunities. You'll leave the call with solid suggestions you can act on whether you hire us or not.

Absolutely. Not everything needs a rebuild, we often refine what's working, fix what isn't, and fill the gaps. If a full redesign genuinely serves you better, we'll tell you why and show you what it changes before you commit to anything.

We build marketing systems, not one-off campaigns, brand, website, content, and ads designed to work together. We set realistic expectations instead of overnight promises, put plans in writing, and treat your business like a partnership: your reputation earned the trust, our job is to make sure the market can see it.
