About Me

I’m a Google certified digital marketing consultant based in Orlando, Florida. I founded Join Me Here Inc. to give small and mid sized businesses direct access to senior level marketing talent without the agency price tag or the junior account manager runaround. For more than 30 years, I’ve managed SEO, PPC, local search, and AI search strategy for businesses across the country. My clients range from HVAC companies and electricians to dental practices, law firms, and e commerce brands. Plans start at $750 a month. No long term contracts. You work directly with me.

My Background

My marketing career started in 1998 when I launched a web hosting company. The Host Group Inc. was founded in Arlington, VA. I grew it to over 3,000 customers worldwide and sold it in 2007. That experience taught me the most important lesson in business: great marketing has to come first.

Since then, I’ve managed millions of dollars in ad spend. I’ve helped local service businesses compete against national chains. I’ve helped e commerce brands cut their cost per acquisition in half. And I’ve watched Google evolve from basic keyword matching to AI driven search results.

I’ve been through every major shift in digital marketing. That’s not something you can learn in a course.

Google Certifications

I hold active certifications across the full Google ecosystem. These aren’t one time badges. They require ongoing testing to maintain.

Certification	Focus Area
AI-Powered Performance Ads	Automated bidding, Performance Max campaigns, and AI driven ad optimization
Google Ads Search	Search campaign strategy and optimization
Google Ads Video	YouTube and video advertising

Google My Business	Local search and Google Business Profile

I’m also a Level 6 Google Local Guide, which reflects deep, ongoing experience with Google’s local ecosystem.

What I Do

I take a hands on approach to every account. You won’t be handed off to a coordinator or receive automated reports with no explanation. I’m the one doing the work and the one you talk to.

Who I Work With

I work best with businesses that are serious about growth and want a partner who can explain what’s happening and why. Most of my clients fall into one of these categories:

Business Type	Common Goals
Home service companies	More calls, lower cost per lead, LSA ranking
Healthcare and dental practices	Local visibility, new patient leads
Law firms	Competitive keyword rankings, qualified inquiries
E commerce brands	ROAS improvement, shopping ad management
Agencies	White label SEO and PPC support

If you’re spending money on marketing and not sure what you’re getting for it, that’s exactly the situation I’m built for.

Why Clients Choose Me Over an Agency

Most agencies assign a junior account manager to your account after the sales call. You get monthly reports filled with charts but no real explanation of what’s working or what changed.

I operate differently.

You talk directly to me, not a coordinator
I’m actively in your account, not just reviewing dashboards
I explain findings in plain language, not marketing jargon
I flag problems before they become expensive mistakes
There are no long term contracts because I earn your business every month

What My Clients Say

“Chris crushes LSA (google local service ads). It can be a challenge to get these ads right and spend efficiently but he lives and breathes this stuff. Got me down from $350 a lead to under $50, so my budget is going much farther.”

“Christopher is a savvy marketer who is extremely detail oriented and thorough in everything that he does – plus a delight to work with! He is a digital expert and has helped our business considerably – so much so that I refer his work to others. Truly a gem and grateful to have him on the team.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Christopher Berry?

I’m a digital marketing consultant and the founder of Join Me Here Inc., based in Orlando, Florida. I’ve been working in SEO, PPC, and local marketing for more than 30 years. I started my career in 1998 by launching a web hosting company that I grew to over 3,000 customers before selling it in 2007. Since then, I’ve focused exclusively on helping businesses grow through smart, accountable digital marketing strategy.

Where are you located and do you work with businesses outside your area?

I’m based in Orlando, FL, in the Winter Park area. I work with clients across the country in states including Texas, California, New York, and throughout the Southeast. Everything is managed remotely with regular strategy calls and monthly reporting. Geography isn’t a barrier.

What Google certifications do you hold?

I hold active Google certifications in Search Ads, Video Ads, Shopping Ads, Ads Measurement, and Google Analytics. I’m also a Google My Business expert and a Level 6 Google Local Guide. All certifications require ongoing testing to maintain, so they reflect current platform knowledge, not something I passed years ago.

Why hire a consultant instead of a full service agency?

With an agency, your account is often managed by someone with one or two years of experience while a senior strategist handles the sales call. With me, the person you speak to is the person managing your account. You’re paying for 30 years of hands on experience and direct access. That combination is hard to find at any price point.

What industries do you specialize in?

My primary focus is home services, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, cleaning, lawn care, pest control, and garage doors. I also work regularly with dental practices, law firms, e commerce brands, and local service businesses across a wide range of trades. If you’re in a competitive local market where every lead matters, I can help.

How much does it cost to work with you?

Monthly plans start at $750. The right investment depends on your goals, your current setup, and which services make the most sense for your business. I don’t lock anyone into long term contracts. We go month to month, and you can scale up or down as needed.

Do you require a long term contract?

No. All plans are month to month. I earn your business by delivering results, not by locking you in.
