The Alignthority® Accelerator: From Expert to Category Leader
Most marketing advice is built for "round hole" businesses. But you’re a star-shaped peg. You don’t need more hustle—you need a strategy that leverages your brilliance.
Over three months, we move beyond theory to build your Alignthority® engine. This is a high-touch, collaborative lab where we bridge the gap between your deep expertise, mission, and values and the data-backed reality of what your clients are actually searching for.
What we’ll build together in the Alignthority® Accelerator:
Your Sphere of Authority™: We pinpoint the high-value niche where your expertise meets market demand.
Your Visibility Blueprint: We deploy SEO strategies that attract "ready-to-hire" clients, not just "looking-to-browse" traffic.
Your Content Engine: We create a roadmap for content that works harder over time, turning your blog into your most effective salesperson.
The High Cost of Marketing Mismatch
Every feel like modern marketing doesn’t fit quite right? You know the story: Wasted hours on social media that doesn't convert. A website that attracts the wrong leads. Messaging that feels like a 'selling out' version of yourself. I hear this over and over again from clients: marketing tactics are misaligned, their vision isn’t maintained, and their brand integrity is eroded. Our Alignthority® Accelerator is the clear, sustainable, strategic marketing approach that solves the ill-fitting suit problem of modern marketing.
Over three months together, we’ll make big moves with a right-fit strategy, using my signature Alignthority® System that’s both flexible and sustainable.
How my search funnel-fueled marketing strategy accelerator works.
The Alignthority® Accelerator is crafted for established consultants and subject matter experts who have a proven offer but are tired of the social media hamster wheel and want a lead generation system that they actually own. It’s high impact and bespoke—no cookie cutter nonsense here. Over our three months together, the phases typically look like the following:
-
It starts with a spark.
Over three working sessions, we'll lay the groundwork for our partnership. This means clarify your goals, creating your core message, and designing your Sphere of Authority.
You will walk away from those first three sessions with a "Sphere of Authority" document you can use immediately to improve your current social media or email marketing.
-
Now that we have your message solidified, we’ll craft your Alignthority® Marketing Strategy.
In this phase, we’ll create a written document, including documenting your top SEO funnel content opportunities to build your thought leadership and visibility.
-
Engineer your own luck with a handcrafted marketing funnel.
We'll build a search-optimized content engine that generates high-value leads while you sleep, moving you from 'best-kept secret' to the go-to authority in your niche.
We know our way around the search engine—and we also know that the vast majority of SEO strategies fail knowledge businesses (if you're a consultant, coach, attorney, creative, or service provider, that's you). Our SEO & content strategy intensive is designed differently and to speak to your highest and best clients every step of the way.

“Working with Sarah Moon has taken 30 to 50% of my sales pipeline work and made it irrelevant because now I am getting Stripe dings from people who never even made it on my pipeline. She has amplified my thought leadership to such a degree that people want to work with me and they are silently looking and lurking and watching and buying without me having to do every single touch, every single call, every single day. Working with Sarah has amplified my authority in ways that I had never imagined.”

The short story? Search drives one THOUSAND percent more organic traffic than social media. The numbers tell a very compelling tale. The data we uncover in the search engine can help us make better designers, more fully understand our audiences, and stay ahead of the trends.
The long story? I believe in evergreen marketing that make your job easier in the long run. Personally, I used search to grow SM&Co from a one person freelance business serving local clients, to an agency serving clients globally, and now a boutique consultancy. I believe in this framework because it’s been our foundation for over a decade.
As I said, no other source has such rich data. So even if you're not planning on making SEO a cornerstone of your marketing, it still is a treasure trove of data from real humans.
-
I’m happy to coordinate with them, just know they may charge you additional fees and I’m not comfortable mediating between the two of you in case of disagreements. (I have stories!)
-
In limited cases I offer a custom website add-on to the Accelerator, call the Signature Implementation Alignthority® Accelerator. Please mention your interest in that in your inquiry.
We only create sites on Squarespace at this time, due to the ongoing expense and complexity of WordPress sites not being appropriate for my clients.
