Commercial Advisory

Your expertise
deserves a business
that runs like it.

I help premium service firms get found, recommended, and chosen — by AI and by people. I diagnose how AI systems represent your company and build the signal architecture that changes what they say about you. And I audit and fix the commercial infrastructure underneath it — what the market sees when they look you up, and how the business is actually built to sell.

The Work

Every part of how your business faces the market. Audited, prioritized, and fixed.

Most premium service firms are built on deep expertise and relationship capital. But the commercial infrastructure around that expertise — the website, the sales process, the CRM, the PR, the way the founder shows up online — often hasn't kept pace. I run a full audit of both: what the market sees when they look you up, and how the business is actually structured to convert that visibility into revenue. Then I fix what matters.

Brand, Digital & Positioning
Website strategy and rebuild direction. Messaging. Visual identity. SEO and AI discoverability. Making sure what people find when they look you up matches the caliber of what you actually deliver.
Sales Infrastructure & Lead Generation
CRM. Lead nurturing. Sales process design. Conversion optimization. Strategic partnerships and referral frameworks. The systems that turn interest into revenue — built from scratch if they don't exist.
PR, Content & Thought Leadership
Press releases built and distributed. Founder personal brand. LinkedIn. Social media strategy and execution. Media placement. The third-party credibility signals that open doors before you walk through them.
Go-to-Market for New Entrants
For founders and founding teams entering new markets or launching new offerings: the full commercial buildout — from competitive positioning and branding through sales infrastructure, marketing collateral, and first client acquisition.

Your prospects are asking AI who to trust. Are you in the answer?

When a high-value prospect — or the person about to refer one — wants to know who the best firms are in your category, they increasingly don't search Google. They ask ChatGPT. They query Perplexity. They check Google AI Overviews. And they act on what comes back.

AI systems don't return a list of links. They select, summarize, and recommend. They surface the companies that have been built to be understood by machines — and they ignore the rest, regardless of how good those companies actually are. Your Share of Model is the percentage of relevant AI-generated answers that include your company. Most premium service firms have never seen that number.

Most leadership teams find that conversation clarifying. A few find it urgent.

Case Stories

What it looks like when the infrastructure matches the expertise.

New Market Entrant · Ultra-Luxury Travel
Entering the U.S. market with no infrastructure, no presence, and a hard deadline.

A European ultra-luxury private jet tour company needed a full U.S. market presence from scratch — with bookings required within months for an inaugural departure. No website strategy, no social media, no CRM, no PR, no sales systems, no partnerships, no marketing collateral. The CEO had no personal digital presence.

What I Built
Complete U.S. go-to-market roadmap with phased execution across sales, marketing, PR, and operations
Competitive positioning against established players in the ultra-luxury travel space
Social media accounts created and content strategy launched from zero
CRM and lead generation infrastructure selected and implemented
PR strategy with press releases written and distributed to luxury travel media
CEO personal brand and LinkedIn presence built
Marketing brochure and sales collateral written for UHNW audience
Strategic partnership framework for luxury hospitality, concierge, and wealth management channels
AI Visibility · Private Aviation
The most valuable domain in private aviation. Invisible in every AI answer that mattered.

A newly launched private aviation company held arguably the strongest domain in the category. When prospects queried AI platforms for the most reputable private jet providers in the US, eight companies were named. This firm was not one of them. The AI knew the domain existed. It did not know the company. It was returning a founding date three decades off, naming no current leadership, and surfacing competitors with inferior credentials ahead of a company with a genuinely strong operational story.

The gap: Domain authority and AI entity authority are completely different things. The firm's commercial assets — certifications, leadership, service architecture — were invisible to the machines shaping its prospects' first research step.

What the Audit Found
Entity Establishment failure: AI conflated domain acquisition history with company history, returning a founding year from the 1990s for a 2024 launch
Zero Organization schema or Person schema — no machine-readable identity layer for leadership or services
Content architecture written for human impressions, not AI extraction — the AI could not answer basic questions about what the company does
Single-source citation dependency — one third-party comparison site was shaping the AI's entire working model of the category
No Google Business Profile, no Knowledge Panel, no review signal visible to AI systems

About

Senior advisory. Not a marketing agency.

LockePoint is led by Christine Frost — 25+ years in business development and relationship sales across the HNW ecosystem, including private aviation, luxury travel, yachting, private residence clubs, and the firms and brands that serve affluent clients.

I operate as a strategic partner embedded in your business — not an outside vendor delivering a report. I start with a diagnosis. I identify what's costing you credibility and revenue across every dimension of your commercial operation. And then I fix what matters — in priority order, with senior judgment, and with the hands-on execution that actually moves the needle.

"I built LockePoint because I kept seeing the same pattern — exceptional firms being outpresented by competitors with half the substance. And new ventures with real offerings but no commercial infrastructure to bring them to market. The fix isn't more marketing. It's smarter commercial infrastructure."

— Christine Frost, Principal

Start with a conversation.

The first step is a brief conversation to determine fit. I work with a small number of clients at any given time to maintain the depth of engagement that makes this model work — not every firm is the right fit, and that's by design.

If what I've described resonates, reach out. No pitch. Just a candid conversation about where you stand.
