Who it's for
For the owner who does it all.
Including the marketing.
You didn't start a business to become a marketer. MKTDPT does the research, the planning and the teaching an agency would, from public data on your area to step-by-step ads, for a fraction of the price. It gets smarter every time you use it.

The math nobody puts on a flyer
What you actually get
A strategist, a researcher and a coach. In one app.
Here's what happens between “I should really do some marketing” and leads that show up on purpose.
Onboarding
Tell it about your business. Once.Answer a few plain questions (or paste in what you already have) and MKTDPT builds your company profile. Then it reads your website and drafts your brand guide: your logo, colors, fonts and the way you sound. From then on, every idea it gives you sounds like your business, not like a template.
Research
The homework agencies bill you for.This is the part most owners never get to. MKTDPT pulls public data on your area (Census and Data USA: incomes, ages, homeowners, growth) and Pew Research on who uses which apps5, then turns it into buyer personas: three to five customer types with nicknames, what they're really buying, what scares them, and where to find them. It also runs a local audit of your website and Google listing against nearby competitors. Every number comes with its source. And it keeps watching: every morning it checks the weather, storms, new-home permits and the economy for your ZIP codes, so you know when to run, not just what.
Strategy
A full-funnel plan, not a pile of posts.Ask for ideas and you get three real options at a time: campaigns with flight dates, budgets, ad sets and the ads themselves, each one aimed at a persona. Each comes with why it should work, built on your own results and industry benchmarks with sources. It covers every step: getting noticed, getting compared, getting the call, and getting the repeat customer.
Education
You learn the why, every single time.MKTDPT doesn't just hand you a plan. It explains where each move fits in the customer journey, what your customer is thinking at that moment, and what should happen next. Season by season you learn to read your own marketing, something a retainer rarely gives you.
Launch
Click-by-click, with nothing left to guess.Pick where the ads run (Facebook, Instagram, Google, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn) and get step-by-step launch instructions written for someone who has never run an ad: targeting, budget, retargeting audiences, and a tracking link for every ad. Everything goes in paused until you say go. Rather hand it off? Sub in a pro from the MKTDPT Bench.
Results
It gets sharper every time you use it.Every lead traces back to the exact ad that brought it in. The scorecard tells you what to keep, fix or cut, and every lesson goes back into your brand guide. The more you feed it (leads, results, what worked), the better the next round of ideas gets. Nothing gets lost between meetings. MKTDPT remembers everything.
Your three options
Agency-level thinking. Without the agency bill.
Plenty of agencies do honest work. But many are paid a share of your ad budget, so their paycheck grows when your ad bill does. MKTDPT earns the same either way, so it has no reason to tell you to spend more. When less is the smarter move, it says so.

Questions
Fair questions.
Do I need to know marketing?
No. That's the point. MKTDPT explains every suggestion in plain words, and the launch instructions are click-by-click. You learn as you go.
What happens after the 2 weeks?
We'll tell you the price before your trial ends. There's no card on file, so nothing gets charged by surprise. If MKTDPT isn't earning its keep, just walk away.
Is my customer information safe?
Yes. MKTDPT tracks which ad brought in each lead, not who your customers are. The AI never sees customer names, emails or phone numbers, never approves an ad, and never takes anything live without you.
Do I need a website?
It helps, and MKTDPT will tell you what your site is missing. But you can start without one. Plenty of local businesses run on a Google listing, Facebook and word of mouth.
Is the AI going to replace me?
No. It does the research and the busywork; you make the calls. You can turn AI off entirely, connect your own Claude, or use ours.
What if I'd rather someone just did it?
Sub in a pro. The MKTDPT Bench is a crew of local videographers, designers, web developers and marketers who can shoot, design, fix or run it with you.
Your marketing department, organized.
Stop guessing. Start running the right plays.
Two weeks free. No card. Set up your first company in one sitting.
