THE OLD WAY IS DEAD

Your Customers Already Decided Before They Called

Today's customer checks your reviews, looks for a booking link, and texts a question. All before picking up the phone. If your system doesn't respond fast, they move on to the next captain. Click the screen below to see what is really behind a BurtSide website.

The website is what they see. The system is what makes you money.

THE NEW WAVE

AI and Automation Are Not the Future. They Are Right Now.

While you are on the water running trips, your system is working. A customer texts at 10pm asking about Saturday availability. Your AI responds in under two minutes with pricing, trip options, and a booking link. By the time you wake up, the trip is booked and confirmed.

After every trip, a review request goes out automatically. Your email list gets seasonal updates without you writing a word. Cancellations trigger waitlist notifications. No-shows get follow-ups.

The captains and marina owners who adopt this now will own their markets for the next decade. The ones who wait will keep losing bookings to competitors who got there first.

That's BurtSide. Built specifically for the way marine businesses actually operate.

THE PROCESS

Three Steps. No Tech Headaches.

1

We Talk

Tell me about your operation. How you book, where you lose leads, what's eating your time. 15 minutes is usually enough.

2

I Build It

I set up your entire system. Website, AI chat, booking, review automation, follow-up sequences. You don't touch a thing.

3

You Run Trips

Your system works while you're on the water. Leads get responses. Bookings get confirmed. Reviews get requested. All without you lifting a finger.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Built by Jared. Built for You.

With over 17 years in the technology industry, I've spent my career building systems that make businesses run better. Automation, AI, workflows that eliminate the stuff that slows people down.

I brought all of that to the marine world because it's where I've always wanted to be. Fishing and boating aren't a hobby I picked up. They're part of who I am. And I got tired of watching captains and marina owners lose bookings while they were on the water because nobody ever built them the right system.

Now I do.

Based in Richmond, VA with my wife, daughter, son, and our dog Gillson.
