ABOUT TVI

We built this for our own businesses first.

Treasure Valley Insider is not an agency that learned about service businesses. It is a group of people who run service businesses and got tired of not being able to see whether the marketing was working.

Who started it

The guy who built it, and why.

Brayden Dunn

Founder

Brayden started Dunn Restoration, exited a pest control company, and founded lighting companies before any of this existed. Service businesses and brick and mortar. Trucks, crews, a phone that has to get answered on a Saturday, and payroll that does not care whether it rang.

He built the first version of these tools for his own companies. Not to sell. He wanted to know whether the marketing was actually working, and he wanted the answer in a form he could do something about before lunch.

That is still the test for everything here. The geo grid, the review engine, the citation checker, the portal: each one exists because a company he runs needed it on a Tuesday morning. If a tool cannot earn its keep on our own businesses, it does not go in front of yours.

His specialty is service businesses and brick and mortar, which is a polite way of saying he has stood where you are standing. Same seasonality, same hiring problem, same slow week in February. That is who this company was built for, and it is who we are still building it for.

We were the customer before we were the vendor.

Why it exists

Why an operator built a marketing company.

Every owner we know has the same story. You pay somebody for marketing. A report shows up. It has impressions on it, and reach, and a chart that goes up. Nobody can tell you whether the phone rang more because of it.

We are not interested in that report. Everything on this site is pointed at one question: is this making the phone ring, and can you see it. That is why the geo grid is a picture of your position neighborhood by neighborhood instead of one flattering average. That is why you get a portal instead of a PDF.

The team

A small team, and you will know all of them.

Nobody here is an account manager reading from a script. You get the person who does the work, and they have run a business like yours.

Kaydyn Dunn

Partner

Brayden's wife, and part of the team. TVI is a family business in the plain sense of the phrase.

Jake

Growth Strategist, Multi-Market

Jake works with owners outside the valley. He travels for the work and runs our multi-state accounts, so a business three states away gets the same attention as one down the road.

Trevor

Growth Strategist, Social

Trevor came up in car detailing and automotive, so he has sold to the same customer most of our clients sell to. He works the social side of the strategy: what your feed says about you before anyone picks up the phone.

Photos are on the way. We would rather show a plain placeholder than a stock photo of somebody who does not work here.

What we operate

What we actually run.

These are ours, not case studies. The playbook we sell is the one we use on them.

Service businesses

Restoration, pest control, and lighting companies, started and run by the founder.

A local media network

Our own community publication in the Treasure Valley, printed and delivered.

The software behind all of it

The portal, the geo grid, the review engine, and the reporting, built in house.

A client roster

Service businesses running the same playbook, in and beyond the valley.

How we work

How we work with you.

  • Month to month. No long contract, leave whenever it stops being worth it.
  • You own everything. Your profile, your listings, your reviews, your site, your data. It is all in your name.
  • One person you can call, who knows your account and has run a business like yours.
  • If the math does not work for your business, we will say so on the first call.
See the month by month processWhat local SEO actually is

Talk to somebody who has run one of these.

A short call, an honest read on where your visibility actually stands, and a straight answer about whether we are a fit. If we are not, we will point you at who is.

SEO Essentials starts at $750/mo and SEO Pro at $1,500/mo, and your portal comes with either plan. Social Media Management starts at $850/mo standalone or $650/mo as an SEO add-on. Google Ads management is a $1,000 one-time setup plus $650/mo, with your ad spend separate, and Meta ads management is coming soon. Custom Local Campaigns start at $2,500. SEO is where most clients start, and it is not everything we build: the portal itself, the review engine, digital and tap-to-share cards, custom CRM and internal tools, and Scout, the marketing app we wire into your account.
