SEO is a long game. Most clients see measurable improvements within 3–6 months. Realistic expectations set during onboarding.

Agents begin the initial audit within 48 hours. First report and action plan within the first week.

Two hours after the initial crawl completes. Crawl time depends on number of pages.

Those are tools — they hand you data and reports, and you (or your agency) do the work. Berlin is a service. You get a senior FDM (Forward Deployed Marketer) who owns your strategy, and agents that execute it. We use tools like these internally alongside our own. You don’t manage them; we do.

Every account runs on shared playbooks, crawl history, and strategy documents — not tribal knowledge in one head. If your FDM moves on, the next one onboards from the existing context within a week and you keep going without a reset.

You do. Everything we produce — content, reports, dashboards, keyword research, redirect maps — is yours. If you ever leave, you take it with you.

We work with SaaS, e-commerce, marketplaces, and B2B services from seed-stage startups through mid-market. If we’re not a fit for your situation, we’ll tell you on the first call — we’d rather decline than take on work we can’t do well.

Whatever works for your team. We can ship directly if you give us CMS or repo access. We can open PRs for your engineers to review. Or we can hand off prioritized change lists for your team to execute. Most clients start with one mode and loosen it as they build trust with us.
