Local search visibility, Google Maps and listingsLocal marketing services for businesses & SMEs
To improve local visibility for your Swiss business or SME, we keep your Google Business Profile current, manage customer reviews and connect local content and paid campaigns to qualified enquiries, bookings or measurable shop visits.
The starting signal is written down before work begins, such as the first qualified enquiry, an attributable booking or measured additional revenue.

One signal per business
A practice does not assess a contact the same way as a shop. We define the useful action before the work starts, then apply the same rule throughout.
Practices
Appointment enquiries and attributable calls, with factual content approved before publication.
Shops
Visits, redeemed codes and sales linked to a local offer defined before the campaign.
Restaurants
Bookings, orders and demand for the service or time slot the restaurant wants to fill.
Trades & services
Qualified quote requests based on location, job type and the information needed to respond.
Built for Switzerland
Local communication
We account for the service area, language region, available capacity and the real sales path. Advertising cannot replace pricing, response time or the customer experience on site.

How Starkio is paid
After the first signal
Before launch, we agree the action, data source and time period. Performance-linked fees only work when your team can handle the contact and revenue can be assigned with reasonable confidence.
Before the agreed signal
There is no agency management fee for the defined setup. Any media budget required is paid directly by your business to the advertising platform.

Promises and conditions
What does “no fee before the signal” mean?+
Starkio does not charge agency management fees for the setup defined in the agreement. If a campaign needs media spend, your business pays that amount directly to the platform.
What counts as a qualified enquiry?+
It depends on the business. The definition can include location, service, valid contact details and a specific need. Those rules are written before launch and applied consistently.
How is a sale assigned to Starkio?+
We only use agreed sources such as a form, tracked number, code, booking or point-of-sale record. If the link to the sale is unreliable, that sale should not be included in revenue sharing.
Does this fit every SME?+
The model does not fit every SME, because it needs a defined offer, capacity to respond and usable measurement. If those conditions are missing, Starkio can begin by putting the local presence in order.
Your Starkio model
Define your signal
You will receive a proposal stating the action, measurement source, exclusions and fee model. We do not need access to your accounts for the first conversation.
