Where the public evidence points
Balefire qualifies through a current downtown Wichita office, explicit 2015 founding, substantive technical and local SEO delivery and both named and anonymized quantified cases. The site calls the team small but does not publish a current roster or headcount, so capacity remains Not published. All scopes are customized after discovery, and no exact recurring SEO fee is public.
Current first-party pages establish a 2015 founding and downtown Wichita office
SEO delivery includes intent research, on-page and technical work, local search, content and monthly lead reporting
Published cases disclose traffic, lead, conversion and sales outcomes while identifying mixed-channel contributions

Questions for the sales call
- Confirm the current team size and name the SEO strategist, writer, developer, paid-media lead and account owner assigned to the work.
- Request analytics, Search Console, CRM and advertising exports for a comparable account with exact dates and organic, paid, redesign and brand contributions separated.
- Obtain a priced scope defining recurring SEO, content, website, ads and reporting work, implementation responsibility, contract term and asset ownership.
What this profile does not prove
- All results are company-authored, two named cases combine SEO with websites and paid or reputation work, and the third client is anonymized.
- The current site does not publish enough roster or headcount evidence to award capacity points.
- No exact current recurring SEO fee is public, so commercial clarity remains unscored.
