Is your website making your business look smaller than it is?

For many established businesses, yes. The work is excellent, but the website is dated, hard to find on Google, and missing from AI tools like ChatGPT.

That gap costs you. Buyers judge you before they call, and the ones who can't find you choose someone else.

You're losing work you never hear about

  • Calls go to voicemail after hours and never call back.
  • Website enquiries wait days for a reply.
  • Quotes are built by hand, one at a time.
  • Competitors with weaker skills win because they look more current.

It isn't a talent problem. It's a systems problem.

You've built something good. You shouldn't have to answer every call yourself or rebuild your website every few years to stay visible. Good businesses deserve to be found, and chosen.

How much are missed calls and slow replies costing you?

$60,000

What Cushion & Squab estimates it saves by automating its quotes. Slow, manual follow-up costs more than most owners think.

Most owners never see what they're losing, because customers who give up don't tell you. Our free Revenue Leak Calculator estimates your yearly loss in about two minutes, and shows all the maths.

The studio

A web design and SEO partner that thinks like a business owner

Magnetic Brand Limited was founded in 2022, built on Lori's 25+ years in brand and web design and commercial photography. Our clients range from an international fiduciary group and a national wayfinding consultancy to engineers in Fiji and a family transport company in Cincinnati.

We know you don't want a pretty website. You want one that brings in the right enquiries and saves you time. That's what we build.

What we do

Four ways we make a business easier to find and choose

  • Smart websites

    Websites that load fast, read clearly and turn visitors into enquiries. Every build includes copywriting, SEO setup and connections to the tools you already use.

    From $5,000 +GST

    See website design
  • SEO and AI search visibility

    We help you rank on Google and get mentioned by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews. Clear pages, strong local signals, and content that answers the questions your buyers ask.

  • Brand design

    Logos, brand identity and messaging that match the quality of your work, so your business looks as established as it is.

  • Smart systems

    Behind-the-scenes systems that catch the leads and hours your business is losing.

    • Never miss a lead

      An AI receptionist answers when you can't, and missed callers get a text back straight away.

    • Quote and invoice faster

      Quotes built from your website form and sent through your accounting system, such as Xero.

    • Turn visitors into enquiries

      Lead capture and instant follow-up, connected to your CRM or inbox.

    Setup from $3,000 +GST, then a monthly plan

    See smart systems

What changes when your website works as hard as you do?

Four things, in the order most businesses notice them.

  • Your site reflects the quality of your work.
  • More of your calls and enquiries turn into conversations.
  • Quotes go out faster, with less admin.
  • Your business shows up when people search on Google or ask AI tools.

How it works

How does working with Magnetic work?

We start with an audit, agree a clear plan and fixed quote, then build and support what we launch. You always know what's happening and what it costs.

  1. Audit

    Start with the free calculator, or book an audit. Either way, we find where your business is losing leads, time or visibility.

  2. Plan

    You get a prioritised plan and a fixed quote. No surprises.

  3. Build and launch

    We design, write, connect and test everything before it goes live.

  4. Support and grow

    A monthly plan keeps your systems running, your SEO growing and your site improving.

Become magnetic.

What is AI search visibility, and why does it matter?

AI search visibility is how often tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews mention and link to your business when someone asks for help. As more people research with these tools, being mentioned there is becoming as important as ranking on Google.

AI tools favour businesses with clear, well-structured pages, consistent details across the web, and straight answers to common questions. We build all three into every website we make.

Case study: Cushion & Squab

Quotes that build and send themselves

Cushion & Squab makes custom cushions and squabs, so every quote is different. We built a quote automation that turns website enquiries into quotes and sends them through Xero, with far less typing.

What clients say

  • Enquiries used to sit in the inbox for days. Now every lead gets an answer the same hour, and we're booking work we used to lose.

  • Our website finally looks like the business we've built. Clients mention it on the first call.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website cost with Magnetic?

New websites start from $5,000 +GST and include copy, SEO setup and data connections. A one-page launch site is $2,500 +GST, and branding is quoted separately.

Do you only work with Auckland businesses?

No. We're based in Matakana, Auckland, and work with businesses across New Zealand and overseas, including clients in Fiji and the United States.

What is the difference between SEO and GEO?

SEO (search engine optimisation) helps your business rank on Google. GEO (generative engine optimisation) helps AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews find, trust and mention your business.

How long does SEO take to work?

SEO builds over months, not days. Most businesses see early movement within a few months, with stronger results as content and links build over time.

What is an AI receptionist?

An AI receptionist answers your business phone when you can't, handles common questions, and takes booking or enquiry details. It then sends those details to you or your system so the lead doesn't go cold.

Will callers know they're talking to AI?

Yes. We set up every voice system to tell callers it's an AI assistant and whether the call is recorded, in line with the Privacy Act 2020.

How much do smart systems cost?

Setup starts from $3,000 +GST, which covers scoping and the build. A monthly plan then covers running costs, monitoring and improvements.

Which audit should I start with?

Choose the Revenue Leak Audit if you're losing calls, quotes or follow-ups. Choose the Brand & Visibility Audit if your website, brand or search presence is holding you back.

Do you offer brand photography?

Brand photography is handled by our sister studio, Lola Media Design. We can bring them into your website project so everything matches.

What platforms do you build on?

We build on WordPress and modern frameworks, and we choose the right fit for your business.
