ABOUT IECAN
Professional service firms deserve websites they own, intake systems that qualify prospects automatically, and honest pricing from a company that works for them — not the other way around.
The professional services marketing industry has a problem. The dominant players charge $10,000–$25,000 per month for websites their clients can never leave. Try to cancel? Your site disappears. Try to take your files? They don't exist — your website is locked inside a proprietary platform you never owned.
Meanwhile, AI search is fundamentally changing how clients find professionals. ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity — these tools are answering the questions your prospects used to type into Google. The firms that appear in those answers get the call. The rest get nothing. And the companies charging $15,000 a month reportedly can't even optimize for AI search — because they never built for it.
IECAN exists because we saw both problems and realized they have the same solution: build websites from scratch, optimized for how search actually works now, with intake systems that qualify prospects automatically — and let the client own every file. One-time pricing. No lock-in. No hostage situations. No subscriptions required for the website to keep existing.
Every site we build ships with the AI search architecture most agencies don't even know how to implement. And for firms that want to go further, we offer active AI search optimization as an add-on — but only when the site is ready to produce measurable results. We don't charge for something that can't work yet. That's the difference.

PRINCIPLES
Every file we create is yours. HTML, CSS, JavaScript — delivered to you, hosted wherever you choose. No proprietary CMS. No lock-in. If we disappeared tomorrow, your website would still work exactly as built.
AI search optimization takes time. New sites need content depth, crawl history, and entity recognition before optimization produces measurable results. We don't charge for something that can't work yet. We tell you when you're ready — not before.
Our prices are on the website. No discovery call required to find out what things cost. No bait-and-switch. No hidden fees. Pricing is subject to annual review — we don't pretend otherwise.
Every website we build starts with the intake system, not the homepage. The intake qualification process determines how your site is structured, what questions get asked,
