Run by someone who does the work
VeloRank is led by founder Scott Foster, who has spent years in the day-to-day of local search — technical audits, Google Business Profile optimization, and citation cleanup — for small and service-based businesses. He also builds software for real estate and small-business owners, so he understands these problems from the operator's side, not just the marketing side. Scott is based in Rosemount — where he also serves as a volunteer firefighter — and is a member of the Dakota County Regional Chamber. He brings that same show-up-and-do-the-work approach to every client he takes on.
