Ethan, Beyond 99x founder
No account managers. No agency bloat.

One person does the sales, the setup, and the work.

I'm Ethan — I knock on doors, run the audit, rebuild the profile, and stand behind the results myself. When you message Beyond 99x, you get me, not a ticket number.

That means faster fixes, straight answers, and zero corporate padding on the invoice.

Rebuild + NFC
Profile rebuilt properly, tap-to-review stand on your counter, live in days.

Step 02, up close

Tap. Review. Done.

No app, no typing a business name into Google. A customer taps their phone on the counter stand and their review screen is already open. Try the demo.

Who I Am

Final-year BCom Marketing student. Full-time local search operator.

Ethan Popplestone

I'm Ethan Popplestone. Beyond 99x started because I kept watching genuinely good barbershops, cafés and mechanics in Stellenbosch lose walk-ins to shops with worse service but better Google reviews.

That's not a marketing problem. It's a visibility problem — and it's fixable in weeks, not years, if someone actually does the unglamorous work: fixing your profile, getting the citations consistent, making it stupidly easy for happy customers to leave a review.

So I do that. Door to door, one storefront at a time, while finishing my degree.

The honesty part

No account managers
You message me directly. I'm the one who does the work, so I'm the one who answers.
No agency bloat
One person, low overhead, prices that reflect it. Not funding a Cape Town office you'll never visit.
Direct access, always
WhatsApp me. That's the support line. It always has been.

How It Works

From invisible to the Map Pack, step by step.

No vague "we optimise your presence" language. Here's exactly what happens, in order.

01
The audit
I pull your current Map Pack position, review count and velocity, and NAP (name, address, phone) consistency across every directory Google checks. You get the real numbers, not a sales pitch.

Google Business✓ Matches
Facebook△ Old address
Yellow Pages SA✗ Missing
02
Profile rebuild + NFC setup
Categories, services, photos and posting cadence all get rebuilt properly, plus an FAQ page on your site built to answer what customers used to ask on your listing directly. Your NFC tap-to-review stand goes on the counter the same week, wired straight to your Google review link.

Review compounding
With friction gone, review velocity climbs, Google weighs recent, steady reviews far more than a stale pile from 2019. Every week compounds on the last.

04
Ranking movement, 60–90 days
This is how long Google actually takes to trust the new signal, not a sales estimate. Position moves happen gradually, then noticeably.
