Website
Three pages that work on a phone, on your own domain, in your name.
Bauer Automate is a Calgary, Alberta company that helps local businesses get found online. Digitize Your Business is a fixed-price package for owner-run businesses in Canada: a website on your own domain, your Google listing claimed and completed, and email that lands, followed by a report card every month, graded A to F.
A website, a Google listing, and email that lands
Google listing
Claimed, completed, photos and hours right, so the map shows you and not a guess.
Email that lands
The records that tell Gmail and Outlook your invoices are really from you.
Priced like a shop rate.
Start with the report card, or go straight to the build. Each part has a fixed price, and you know it before you say yes.
Presence Report Card
A twenty-page report, graded A to F, on where you stand today. The full price comes off the build if you go ahead within 90 days.
Fixed price, confirmed before you say yes.
What is included
What is graded: your website (does it load, is it fast on a phone, does it have the basics), your Google listing (is it complete, and how does it compare to the three businesses nearest you), your reviews (how many, how recent, whether you reply), your email records, how you show up in a local search, your social pages, and what a public security scan can see. The last page says what we would do about it.
Presence Launch
The one-time build.
Fixed price, one time.
What is included
A domain name in your name. A website with three pages (home, services, contact) that works on a phone. Your Google listing claimed and completed with photos and hours. The email records that tell Gmail and Outlook your messages are really from you. Analytics so you can see visits. A small kit for asking customers for reviews. One round of changes. We run the report card again after launch so you can see the grade change. Bookings or an online shop are not in the standard build; we quote them separately after the consultation.
Presence Care
Keeping it running, in three levels: Keep, Care and Grow.
Three levels, no contract term. Monthly prices are confirmed before you say yes.
What is included
Keep keeps the site online, the domain renewed and the certificate valid, with a short check-in by email each quarter. Care adds the monthly report card, a reminder and templates for asking customers for reviews, two content changes, and two posts on your Google listing. Grow adds posts on two social channels and a quarterly call. You can stop any of them at any time, and there is no contract term.
Digital Foundation
For a business on a free Gmail address that wants email and Teams on its own domain.
Fixed price, confirmed before you say yes.
What is included
Everything in Launch plus a Microsoft 365 setup done properly: email on your own domain for each person, shared inboxes like info@ and sales@, Teams, and sign-in protection switched on from day one, with your mail moved over on a planned evening and two training sessions so everyone can use it. Complete adds a place to keep documents, policies and training that staff can find, built on SharePoint, with a third training session.
Local Presence (exploring). We are exploring a review-request and reply system that runs on your own Zoho One account. It is a pilot, run by hand with our first five founding clients, and it is not for sale yet. If you want to hear when it is ready, tell us in the free consultation.
One page a month, graded A to F.
Your website, your Google listing, your reviews, your email, how you show up in a local search, your social pages, and what a public security scan can see. The last page says what we would do about it. No jargon, no rankings promises. We do not sell rankings. We build the thing, claim the listing, fix the email, and show you the same report every month.
Who Digitize Your Business is for
- Owner-run local businesses with no one on staff for this: trades and home services, main-street shops and food, and small professional practices.
- A new business that needs to start properly.
- A business whose Google listing says "Claim this business", whose website is a Facebook page, or whose invoices land in junk.
If you are a franchise location, your head office usually owns the website and the rules for your Google listing, so this is usually not the right fit. If you already have a marketing person or a website that is working well, you may not need this.
How it works
1. Talk
A free consultation: twenty minutes, no cost. We show you what we found and what we would build.
2. Tell us
We send a short list: your logo if you have one (if not, we set your name in a clean typeface), a handful of photos, your hours and services, and twenty minutes on a call to claim the Google listing together. Google sends the verification to you, not to us.
3. See it first
We build, and you see the site before it goes live. One round of changes is included.
4. Keep going
After launch we run the report card again so you can see the grade change, then send one every month on a Care level. The domain is in your name. If you leave, you take it with you.
What Digitize is not
- We do not sell rankings or promise a place on Google. We build the thing, claim the listing, fix the email, and show you the same report every month.
- We are not an SEO retainer or a content strategy.
- We do not build online shops or booking engines in the standard package. Those are quoted separately after the consultation.
- We do not promise customers. It gets you found, and it makes the people who find you trust you; whether they buy is still up to you.
- The security section shows what a public scan can see. It is not a security review.
- We do not set up a full Microsoft 365 tenant below Digital Foundation. A complicated email setup with many sending systems is a separate fix, and we tell you in the report.
Frequently asked questions
I already have a Facebook page. Why would I need a website?
Because a Facebook page only reaches people who already know you. When someone new searches for a plumber or a barber near them, Google shows a map and a list of websites, and your Facebook page is not on that map. The website and the Google listing are what put you there.
What is a Google listing, and what does "claim this business" mean?
A Google listing is the box with your name, hours, phone number and reviews that shows up on Google Maps and in search, and claiming it means you control it. Google creates many listings automatically. Until you claim yours, anyone can suggest changes to your hours or phone number, and Google often accepts them.
Is the report card free?
No. The price is confirmed before you say yes, and the full amount comes off the build if you go ahead with us within 90 days. We do offer a free consultation where we walk through what we found and what we would build.
Who owns the website and the domain?
You do. The domain is registered in your business's name. If you leave, we hand over the domain and a copy of the site.
What does it cost each month?
It depends on the level, and you can stop any of them at any time. Keep keeps the site online, the domain renewed and the certificate valid, with a short check-in by email each quarter. Care adds the monthly report card, a reminder and templates for asking customers for reviews, two content changes, and two posts on your Google listing. Grow adds posts on two social channels and a quarterly call. The monthly price for each level is confirmed before you say yes.
Will this get me to the top of Google?
No. No one can promise that, and anyone who does is selling something else. What we can say is that a claimed listing, a real website and recent reviews are the three things Google looks at for local results, and the report card shows you every month where you stand on each.
Will this get me more customers?
It gets you found, and it makes the people who find you trust you. Whether they buy is still up to you and your work.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep the domain, we give you a copy of the site, and the monthly plan stops. There is no contract term.
Start with a conversation.
Twenty minutes, no cost, we show you what we found and what we would build.
