About GrowDesk
We help businesses grow on the internet.
GrowDesk is the AI marketing team for growing businesses. It started as the tool we used for our own clients. It worked well enough that we made it available to everyone.
How it started
Built for our clients. Then for everyone.
I've built more than 250 websites and run the marketing for most of them. I've built software, led product teams and taken products to market. Today I work with growing companies as a fractional CMO and growth officer, and build AI automation that takes work off their teams.
Across all of it, one problem kept showing up: marketing. Most small and mid-sized businesses don't have anyone dedicated to it. When they do, that person is usually stretched thin, learning as they go, or working without the right tools. Good companies lose to competitors who simply show up better online.
So I built a tool for my own clients. It checks how a business shows up in Google and in AI answers, finds what's holding it back, and does the work every week: fixes, content and posts, ready for approval. It worked so well that I turned it into a product.
That product is GrowDesk, and here we are.

What we believe
Marketing should get done.
Owners don't need another tool to learn. They need the work to happen, explained simply, with them in control.
Do the work, not the dashboard
Most marketing tools show you a chart and leave the rest to you. We find what to fix, then write it, fix it and post it.
Plain English
No jargon and no 40-page audits. Every fix says what is wrong, why it matters and what to do.
You stay in charge
Nothing goes out under your name until you approve it. It is your business and your voice.
Our team
Small team. Lots of reps.
