How it works

Four steps, no binder nobody reads

  1. Step 1

    Free 20-minute call

    You tell me what's slowing things down. I tell you what I'd fix first, even if you don't hire me.

  2. Step 2

    A written quote

    A fixed price and a delivery date for a project, or the plan that fits. Nothing starts until you say yes.

  3. Step 3

    I learn how you work

    A walkthrough or phone videos of the job, so everything I make matches how the work really gets done.

  4. Step 4

    You review, I finish

    You mark up the drafts, I revise, and you get files your team can use, plus help rolling them out.

Chandler May, founder of Marshall & Main
About

An owner, not just a consultant

I'm Chandler May, founder of Marshall & Main and co-founder and CEO of Tino's Pet Grooming, a grooming, boarding, daycare and dog-training business in the Jackson area. Our third location opens in November.

I wrote our SOP manual, daily checklists and employee handbook, built a DOL-registered apprenticeship for new groomers, manage our Google listings and website, and built the software we run all three shops on.

Before that I spent 15 years in sales and marketing, mortgage lending and real estate, and I have a marketing degree from the University of Memphis. Marshall & Main is the same work I do for my own business, done for yours.

Questions

Good to know

What's the difference between a project and a plan?

A project is a one-time job with a fixed price, like an SOP manual or a website. A plan is ongoing help every month: your Google profile, website, SOPs and marketing keep moving without you having to manage them.

How do plan terms work?

You pick a 3, 6 or 12-month term. Longer terms cost less per month, and 12-month plans skip the onboarding fee. After your term, the plan continues month to month at the 3-month rate until you cancel. Unused hours don't roll over.

Do you only work with local businesses?

No. I'm based in Madison, Mississippi, and I meet local owners in person, but most of the work happens over video calls and shared documents.

What kinds of businesses do you help?

Shops and service businesses with 3 to 50 people: grooming, beauty, restaurants, nutrition clubs, retail, clinics, fitness and home services.

Who pays for software and ads?

You do, directly, so the accounts stay in your name. That includes tools like your booking system, texting service, domain and ad spend.

Do you guarantee Google rankings?

No one honest can. I do the work that moves local rankings: your Google profile, reviews, website pages and listings. Your monthly snapshot shows what changed: calls, views, reviews and visits.

Do you use AI?

Yes, as a tool for speed. I do the interviews, structure and final wording myself, and I review every page before you see it.

Is the handbook legal advice?

No. It's a clear, complete draft for your attorney to review, which usually makes that review faster and cheaper.
