Omni Search Labs

When you work with Omni Search Labs, you will never be handed off to a junior account manager, a rotating intern, or an outsourced support team. Instead, you work directly with a senior team led by founder and lead strategist Chris Sheehy. The studio brings together 3 senior-level experts who span 80 years of combined digital experience across search visibility, advanced website development, and digital marketing strategy. This structure allows us to provide the strategic depth of a large agency with the dedicated attention of a boutique partner.

Chris Sheehy’s career began in 1997, long before Google became a household name. He started by building and marketing his own company, and automotive insurance website, which quickly earned a Website of the Year nomination. That early success proved that search visibility is about connecting human needs with reliable solutions. Chris went on to build multiple successful companies, selling two of them, including his former SEO agency, Sidewalk Branding Co., which was acquired in 2022. He then served a three-year transition term as Director of Digital Services at Brave River Solutions before returning to agency ownership under the Omni Search Labs brand. To expand the studio’s technical capabilities, Chris brought on two of the most creative and experienced Squarespace developers in the region, adding 50 years of combined design and development expertise to the team.

Our background as business owners first and marketers second makes us unique in this industry. We have met payroll, managed profit and loss statements, and navigated economic downturns just as you have. We do not view your marketing budget as a means to generate empty clicks or vanity metrics. We view it as an investment that must generate a return. Because of this, we always filter our advice through the lens of fiscal responsibility and operational reality.

Our collaborative work style is based on the concept of Kaizen, or continuous improvement. We treat our partnerships as a relationship where we are constantly learning, testing, and refining our strategy together. This commitment to education extends beyond our client work. Chris has had the privilege of contributing to the curricula, lectures, entrepreneurial subject matter expert, and advisory committees of institutions such as Columbia University, Rhode Island School of Design, Rhode Island College, New England Tech University, Johnson & Wales, and the University of Rhode Island.

When you partner with Omni Search Labs, you get a team that values integrity and transparency above all else. You get peace of mind knowing your digital presence, whether we are building a custom Squarespace site from scratch or optimizing an existing platform, is guided by three decades of proven industry leadership.

Experience Pays Dividends is more than just our tagline. It is the promise we make to every client.
