See how your SEO agency is really doing.
See what you owe each client, where your team's hours go, whether delivery is on pace, and how the agency is doing this month. One place, not five.
Can you answer these four questions about your agency right now?
No looking things up. No opening another tab.
What work do you still owe each client this month?
Not a guess. The real list, for every client.
Which client takes the most time but pays the least?
The one you'd raise the price on, if you had proof.
Are you ahead or behind on this month's work?
The month is 43% over. Is 43% of the work done?
Is the agency doing better or worse than last month?
Money in, money out, work done. Not a gut feeling.
Everyone teaches you how to rank. Nobody teaches you how to run it.
You learned how to get clients ranked. Nobody taught you the rest: sending reports, keeping track of the work, paying your team, and knowing if you made money this month.
That part is what Lumea does.
Your agency runs in Lumea. That's why the numbers mean something.
You don't fill out a report. You do your normal work, and Lumea turns it into numbers.
Run it
Your clients, monthly work, team hours and new leads all live in Lumea.
Measure it
As you work, Lumea keeps count. What got done, who did it, and what it cost.
Improve it
Open Reports. See what's going well and which client needs you.
This is what I couldn't see before Lumea.
I knew my clients. I knew what they paid. I worked hard.
But I couldn't tell you if the agency was getting better or worse. Or where my team's time went. Or which clients were costing me too much.
Now I can see it in 45 seconds.
Your client sees their new leads. You see if they followed up.
When someone fills out a form on your client's website, the lead shows up in your client's Lumea login. Their team calls, texts or emails each one. Then they mark it won or lost.
Every lead has a time on it. Every call, text and email gets logged. So when a client says SEO isn't working, you can see if they followed up on the leads they got.
Lumea doesn't track phone calls. It tracks the leads from your client's website, and what your client did with them.
Your client asks what you did this month. The answer is already on your screen.
No "let me get back to you." No digging through folders after you hang up.
- Every task done this month, with links to the pages
- Their Google numbers, month by month
- What they pay and what they got for it
- A report you can send before you hang up
Then you turn it around.
"You have twenty new leads nobody on your team has called."
He called to ask what you're doing. Now you're showing him what his team isn't doing.
Everything your agency does, in one place.
Numbers you type in by hand get old fast. In Lumea, the numbers come from the work itself, so they stay current.
Never forget to follow up on a sale.
Every business you're trying to sign has a stage, a next step and a due date. Lumea shows you who needs a follow-up today, and who is late.
- Move each deal through your stages: lead, contacted, qualified, proposal, negotiating
- See your open pipeline and what it's likely worth
- Bring in your list from a spreadsheet with Import
- Won and lost deals keep their history
One page for each client.
Click a client. See what they pay, what work you owe them, who worked on it, and what's done.
- Name your own packages
- Save each month's price
- Keep notes your whole team can see
- Archive a client and keep their history
Each month's work is ready for you.
Set up a client's monthly work once. Every new month shows up already filled in, with what you owe.
- Monthly tasks for each client
- A note and a doc link on every task
- Skip a month, and write down why
- Send topical map pages right into the month's work
Every hour is tied to a client.
Your team clocks in for the client they're working on. That's how Lumea knows which clients take the most time. It makes payday easier too.
- Clock in and out as many times a day as you need
- Every hour tagged to a client
- Approve a pay period and it locks
- Old pay rates stay saved, so a raise doesn't change past pay
- Set bonus rules for each person
Your reports. Only you see the money.
What comes in. What goes out. How many hours your team worked, and on what. What work is done, and what's left.
- Money: what comes in, what goes out, and what's left
- Team: hours for each person and each client
- Work: what's done and what's late, worst first
- Google: each client's numbers, month by month
- Your team can't see the money
I made the same mistake twice.
First time
I used to own a company that built homes. I had no real system. I had spreadsheets and a QuickBooks account I didn't understand.
Later I worked for a company that made over $100 million a year. They checked their numbers every day. The bosses made choices from facts, not gut feelings.
If I had known that back then, my company would have turned out different.
Second time
Years later I started an SEO agency. And I made the same mistake. I had 20 clients, a small team and good work. But the facts about my own business were spread across Google Drive, Docs and Sheets.
I looked for software to fix it. Every tool was built for some other kind of business. So I built Lumea. My agency has run on it every day since.

Don't move your whole agency. Start with one client.
Try Lumea on real work first. If you like what you see, add the rest.
Add one client
Their name, package and price.
Bring in their topical map
Upload the one you already have.
Add this month's work
Pick pages from the map for this month.
Track your team's time
Clock in for that client.
Open Reports
See the work pace and the hours.
What you'll see in 14 days
By the end of week one, you'll know two things about that client. Is the work on pace? And how many hours did your team spend? Month to month numbers show up after month two.

Before you start the trial.
What happens after 14 days?
Your trial ends. We don't have your card, so you won't be charged. To keep going, pick the plan that fits how many clients you have.
What counts as a client?
A business you bill every month. Businesses you're still trying to sign don't count. Clients you've archived don't count.
I don't have time to move everything over.
You don't have to. Start with one client. Try it on real work. Move the rest later if you like it.
Isn't this another dashboard?
No. A dashboard shows you numbers. Lumea creates the numbers from the work your agency is already doing.
Your team clocks time, completes work, manages leads and runs clients inside Lumea. Those actions become the numbers you see in Reports.
It's the operating system underneath the dashboard.
Why not build this myself in Notion or a spreadsheet?
You can. But then you're building and maintaining your own software.
Notion doesn't know what a topical map is. It can't tie your team's hours to what a client pays. It can't give your clients their own login to see their leads.
You'd be recreating what Lumea already does, then maintaining it yourself.
Does this replace Semrush or Ahrefs?
No. Those tools help you do SEO. Lumea helps you run the business. Keep using both.
How long until I see useful numbers?
Work pace and team hours show up in week one. To compare one month to the next, you need two months of data.
Do team members cost extra?
No. Every plan comes with as many team members as you want. You pay by client, not by person.
Can my clients see my business numbers?
No. Clients only see their own leads. They never see your income, your team's hours, what you pay people, or your other clients. Your team can't see the money side either.
Does Lumea do payroll?
No. Lumea tracks hours, pay rates and bonuses. When you approve a pay period, it locks. Then you send the numbers to whoever does your payroll. Lumea never sends money or files taxes.
Can I take my data with me?
Yes. Export it any time. Nothing gets locked in.
I do SEO for my own business, not for clients.
