Place Digital
About the company
Place Digital is a boutique, mission-driven marketing agency dedicated to helping therapy practices and rehab centers grow in sustainable, ethical, and genuinely life-changing ways. We’re not a traditional agency — we exist because the mental-health industry deserves better than burnout culture, predatory marketing tactics, and one-size-fits-all strategies.
We help practitioners build profitable, fulfilling practices through trauma-informed, results-driven digital marketing — including SEO, Local SEO/GBP optimization, content strategy and writing, and high-quality website design.
Because when therapists thrive, so do their communities.
We’re a fully remote team spread across the United States, Western Europe, and South Africa. We operate with the heart of a small team and the impact of a deeply specialized agency. Every person here plays a meaningful role in shaping the experience our clients (and their clients) receive.
Our Values
- Excellence. We are a small team that delivers world-class results. We hold ourselves to a high bar and aim to exceed it, even when the marketing landscape is shifting beneath our feet.
- Integrity. We prioritize ethical marketing over gimmicks, operating with honesty and transparency. We tell our clients what they need to hear, not what they want to hear.
- Collaboration. We see our clients as partners in their success, and we work across departments to deliver the most comprehensive and informed strategies.
- Clarity. We communicate with each other clearly and respectfully, and our clients always know what’s going on. No one is in the dark, and no one is disrespected.
- Enthusiasm. We love what we do, and we find deep satisfaction when helping our clients achieve their goals. We are our clients’ cheerleaders and see their success as our own.
Why Work With Us
- A calm, supportive, fully remote environment.
- Full time, salaried position ($70,000-$80,000, DOE).
- Work that directly contributes to better mental-health access.
- A small team where your voice matters.
- Opportunities to grow your expertise and take ownership.
- Meaningful work, mission-aligned clients, and work you can be proud of.
- At Place Digital, you’re not just joining an agency — you’re joining a team that genuinely cares about the people behind the practices and the people behind the work.
About the role
- Lead with insight: Conduct meaningful keyword research and competitor analysis that helps our therapy and rehab clients be found by the people who need them most.
- Shape high-impact content: Optimize on-page elements — from metadata and URLs to internal linking and content structure — to drive sustainable, ethical, client-attracting growth.
- Strengthen foundations: Perform technical SEO audits, identify opportunities, and collaborate with our team to implement fixes that support long-term stability and performance.
- Elevate local visibility: Build and execute thoughtful Local SEO and Google Business Profile strategies so our clients show up clearly and confidently in their communities.
- Measure what matters: Track, analyze, and report on core KPIs (traffic, rankings, conversions, CTR, and beyond) — translating data into clear recommendations and real-world impact.
- Collaborate with purpose: Partner closely with our content, design, and website teams to weave SEO best practices into every stage of production.
- Stay curious and evolving: Keep an eye on search updates, tools, and industry shifts, ensuring our strategies remain ahead of the curve — and always aligned with trauma-informed, sustainable marketing principles.
- Lead client strategy calls, clearly communicating SEO performance, wins, challenges, and next steps.
- Present analytics updates including traffic trends, keyword movement, conversions, and technical improvements, translating data into actionable insights.
- Proactively address performance decreases with clear explanations, recovery plans, and timeline expectations.
- Showcase recent optimizations, completed deliverables, and measurable improvements to reinforce value and ROI.
- Manage high-level client relationships, building trust through transparency, responsiveness, and strategic guidance.
- Adapt in real time during calls, pivoting discussions based on client priorities, questions, or unexpected concerns.
- Collaborate with internal SEO specialists, content teams, and technical teams to ensure deliverables align with client goals.
- Set clear expectations, timelines, and KPIs to maintain alignment and prevent miscommunication.
- Identify growth opportunities and upsell additional SEO services when aligned with client objectives.

- Proven experience leading client calls and presenting performance data, including organic traffic, keyword rankings, conversions, and technical SEO metrics.
- Tool-proficient: You’re comfortable using Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, and other industry-standard SEO tools to uncover insights and guide decision-making.

- Demonstrated ability to manage and retain client relationships, including handling performance concerns and difficult conversations with professionalism.
- Tech-friendly: Familiarity with Moxie and GSuite is a plus, but not required — we’ll support you in getting up to speed.
