AI is revolutionizing how customers find businesses like yours—florists, restaurants, accountants, and more.
At stevemann.co, we help small businesses in Connecticut, including Fairfield County and Litchfield County, change their marketing to work with AI.
By using AI marketing we ensure your business stands out to prospective customers and converts inquiries into loyal clients.
AI decides if it recommends your business but you can change that... take a look.
Customers now ask different questions.
“Who’s the best [service] near me?”
“Which company should I trust?”
“Who can solve this problem quickly?”
AI answers those questions.
If your business isn’t optimized for AI, someone else gets the referral.
That's where I come in. I'll optimize your marketing for AI so your prospects become customers.

Frequently asked questions
What do you actually do for small businesses?
I help local small businesses make marketing clearer, simpler, and more effective. That usually means cleaning up how the business explains what it does, improving how leads turn into calls and inquiries, and bringing focus to what’s worth doing and what’s not.
What kinds of businesses do you work with?
I work with local small businesses that are past the DIY stage and want more predictable results from marketing. This often includes professional services, healthcare practices, home services, and local business to business providers.
Do you work with very small businesses or solo operators?
Yes, as long as the business is established and wants to improve how marketing brings in customers. Readiness to make practical changes matters more than company size.
Are you a marketing agency?
No. I’m not an agency. I don’t sell bundles of tactics or long retainers. I work directly with business owners and small teams to bring clarity, direction, and follow-through.
What does "part-time marketing lead" mean?
It means I act as your marketing lead without being a full-time employee. I help set priorities, guide decisions, manage vendors when needed, and keep marketing focused on r
Do you replace our current marketing vendor or agency?
Not necessarily. If you have a vendor doing good work, I help make them more effective. If things are unclear or unfocused, I help clean it up and decide what to keep or change.
How is this different from hiring a full-time marketing person?
A full-time hire is expensive and often unnecessary for small businesses. I provide experienced marketing guidance and leadership on a part-time basis, without the overhead or long-term commitment.
How quickly will I see results?
Many small improvements show up quickly. Larger impacts usually happen over 60 to 90 days.
Do you focus on digital or traditional marketing tactics?
I focus on whatever helps the business get more calls and inquiries. That often includes website improvements, local search, reviews, follow-up, and vendor coordination. The best tactics drive results, no matter what they are.
Do you work locally?
Local small businesses are my primary focus. Working locally allows for better understanding of your needs, better tactics, and better results.
Do small businesses really need AI for marketing?
Most small businesses don’t need “AI.” What they need is marketing that works better. AI is useful when it speeds up effective marketing, If it doesn’t do that, it’s not worth using.
Will AI help me get more leads?
It can. AI can figure out what’s working, create new content faster, and speed up marketing improvements.
Whats the best way to get started?
The best first step is a short reset to identify what’s blocking results and what to fix first. From there, we decide whether ongoing help makes sense.
