The Real Problem

Right Now, Someone in Your City
Is Searching for What You Do.
They Won't Find You.

Here's the hard truth: 97% of people research a local business online before they ever pick up the phone. If your Google presence is weak, your reviews are thin, and no one follows up when a lead calls - you're not just losing jobs. You're funding your competitor's growth. Every month you wait is another month of leads going straight to whoever shows up first.
Lost Revenue
📵
Leads go cold before you call back
You're busy on a job. A lead calls, gets voicemail, and books the next person they call. Without an automated follow-up system, you lose those leads every time.
Missed Visibility
🔍
You're not showing up on Google Maps
The three businesses in the Google Map Pack get the majority of local calls. If your profile isn't optimized, you're invisible to the customers who are actively looking.
Trust Gap
⭐
Not enough reviews to win the comparison
Customers compare businesses before they call. If you have 8 reviews and your competitor has 120, they pick your competitor. It doesn't matter how good your work is.
Operational Drag
📞
Booking is a manual, time-draining process
Three back-and-forth calls to schedule one appointment. Cancellations with no automated reminder. A simple online booking system recovers hours of your week.
The Solution

Other Agencies Build Websites.
We Build Revenue Systems.

A website is a brochure. A growth system is a machine that works 24/7 - finding leads, following up before they go cold, collecting reviews, booking appointments, and sending you reports while you focus on the actual work.

That's what we build. And we manage every piece of it for you, every month.

Common Questions

Answers Before You Ask

If you complete the full 90-day program on a Growth System or Full Growth plan and do not see measurable improvement in leads, calls, or booked jobs versus your starting baseline, we keep working at no charge until you do. We track those metrics together from Day 1, so there is no disagreement about the baseline.

It depends on the channel. Google Business Profile visibility usually improves in 30–60 days, paid ads start producing leads in the first 1–2 weeks, and SEO takes 60–120 days to move meaningfully. The 90-day window gives every channel enough time to produce real data.

We have three monthly plans: Visibility at $397/month (Google Business Profile, reviews, local SEO basics), Growth System at $797/month (adds CRM, automated follow-up, and reporting), and Full Growth at $1,497/month (adds Google or Meta ad management). Ad spend is billed separately by the platforms, with no markup.

No long-term contract. We work month to month with 30 days notice to cancel. We do ask for a 90-day commitment at the start, because that is the minimum time needed to measure results. After 90 days you own everything: the CRM data, automations, review system, and ad accounts.

Local service businesses across BC: home services (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, landscaping, cleaning, renovation), professional services (accountants, lawyers, brokers), health and wellness (physio, chiropractic, dental, med spas), and auto. We limit how many similar businesses we take per city to avoid competing against our own clients.

Fast. Day 1 is a strategy session and access setup, days 2–9 are the system build (CRM, automations, Google Business Profile, ad accounts), and Day 10 is the go-live walkthrough. Most clients are fully live within two weeks of signing.
