Who it's for

A small business AI consultant for owner-led firms

We work with owner-led small businesses and SMEs of 2 to 50 staff, mostly service businesses: consultancies, agencies, recruitment firms, trades, clinics and practices. The pattern is the same in all of them. Enquiries land in inboxes, bookings happen by email, and the owner answers everything. An AI consultant for SMEs is useful when that owner wants the week back without hiring someone to run the tools.

  • 01Enquiries arrive four ways and nobody can say how many came in last week.
  • 02Follow-up depends on someone remembering, so the warm ones go cold on a busy Thursday.
  • 03Three or more tools you pay for monthly that do not talk to each other.
  • 04The team uses AI already, and nobody has agreed what good looks like.

Where

London based, in person across the South East and the Midlands

The review runs in person across London, the South East and the Midlands, and remotely for the rest of the UK. The build happens wherever we are, with you seeing it on your own domain by day five. AI for small business UK-wide works the same way: the review moves online and the rest of the engagement does not change.

Experience

Twenty years in marketing, in agency and in-house roles

Our work includes B2B lead generation for La Fosse, a recruitment firm; search for Bupa Global and for Haleon brands including Anadin, Otrivine and Voltarol; and websites, search and Google Ad Grants for more than 50 charities.

How it works

Call, review, then build

The same three steps every time, so you know what the next one costs before you take it.

  1. 1Free

    A 20-minute call

    You tell us where the week goes. We tell you whether a review is worth your money and, if it is not, you leave with a straight answer. No pitch.

  2. 2From £350

    The paid review

    Built around what you need. For AI visibility, we run the questions your customers ask AI tools and score what comes back. For AI implementation, we spend ninety minutes with whoever answers your enquiries and time how one is handled today. Either way, you leave with a two-page plan.

  3. 3Fixed quote

    The build

    The plan says what. Usually a CRM you own, and an audit of what AI says about you where enquiries start online. It is handed over with the logins and a written runbook.

About

An AI consultancy that builds its own products

Fidesq brings twenty years in marketing, a CIM Advanced Certificate in Marketing and an MSc in Design for Interactive Media, together with the product background behind the projects we build alongside the consulting work. We build with AI, so the price buys a running system on hosting in your own name, not a licence.

FAQ

Questions owners ask an AI consultancy

What does an AI business consultant do?
An AI business consultant finds the places in a business where AI changes the week and builds them into a system the business owns. Here that means a timed review of how you handle enquiries, a CRM or similar system built in 10 working days, and a care plan that keeps it running afterwards.
Do you work with businesses outside London?
Yes. We are based in London and run reviews in person across London, the South East and the Midlands. For the rest of the UK the review runs remotely, and the build is the same wherever you are, because you see it running on your own domain rather than in a room.
What size of business do you work with?
Owner-led businesses and SMEs of 2 to 50 staff, mostly service businesses. Below two, there is usually nobody to hand the enquiries to. Above about 50, permissions, audit trails and procurement change the right answer and you will be better served by a larger firm. We say so on the call if that is you.
Do I need to be technical?
No. You need to know how your business handles an enquiry today and be willing to hold the hosting and data accounts in your own name. We build the system and hand it over with a written runbook. Small changes afterwards are a request, not a developer quote.
What happens on the 20-minute call?
You describe where the week goes and what you already pay for. We ask how an enquiry gets handled and who follows up. By the end we tell you whether the £350 review is worth it for you, and if it is not, what we would do instead. Nothing is sold on the call and there is no follow-up sequence.

Why Fidesq

We test this on ourselves first

The method we sell is the method we use on our own marketing and our own business. Four things make the work different.

01

Twenty years of marketing behind every fix

Twenty years in digital marketing, seven of them as an agency SEO manager running search for Bupa Global and Haleon brands and carrying seven to eight retainers at once. We know where a small business actually loses enquiries.

02

Built on your work, not a template

The review starts with a timed test of your own enquiry handling, and the build runs on your domain with your own enquiries in it before the second half of the fee is due.

03

You own what gets built

The hosting account, the code and the data are in your company's name from handover. There is no licence to renew and nothing stops working if Fidesq does.

04

We build our own products

Fidesq builds consumer software alongside the consulting work. We understand products, not just marketing.
