So our company name is three words [one][two][three]
but everyone either searches for us with [one] {space} [two][three] or [two][three]
What I've been doing is trying to figure out how to convince google to still bring us up even the users leaves a space between our first and second and third letter.
We paid a very expensive SEO consultant to help us but all he did was waste time and money.
Any guidance like meta tags etc to try and see if we can get any basic result before we put some more money on this?
Thanks in advanced

You can't get useful advice without going into specifics, someone could help you get everything right for local business search, which would be great for a restaurant but not so useful if you are selling specialised engineering equipment where your customers are thinly spread across the country.

What experts?Google doesn't provide SEO services or anything close to it, anyone claiming to be affiliated with google is probably a fraud.
How significant is searching for your business name, it’s the search terms that new customers use for the service/product you supply that are most important and appearing ahead of potential cmmpetion when said search terms are used.
If the issue is your business name is made of fairly generic word which make it hard to find it might be worth while and much cheaper than spending a fortune with google in the long-run to think of a new co. Name rebranding or running a sister company focussed on web based business. I guess this depends on how much you see your future business relying upon the web though?

it will be heavily based on the web.

We have seen SEO improve with our bigger clients adding us to their website which should 'build trust' with Google.
But re-branding would be a mistake. We are known in our area of work as "[second] [third]" which was what made us in the early days.
I contacted the person who owns a similar domain and they didn't get back and they're based in Korea. I don't even know if they will sell.
Google Ads is a good alternative and we discussed it and might give it a go.
