The Problem

You're losing money.
Right now. Every day.

While you're under a sink or up on a roof — your phone rings. You can't answer. It goes to voicemail. The customer calls the next tradesman on Google. That competitor just answered your call.

Invisible on Google

95% of clicks go to the top 3 results. If you're on page 2 or 3, you effectively don't exist to new customers searching right now.

Page 1 vs Page 3 = 95% vs 3% of clicks

Missed Calls = Lost Jobs

The average tradesperson misses 23% of calls while on the job. 78% of those callers immediately book with the next business that answers.

23% of calls go unanswered every day

Not Enough Reviews

Your competitor has 60 Google reviews. You have 7. Customers instinctively choose the business that looks more established and trusted.

44% of clicks go to top 3 map results

FAQ

Questions we get all the time

We fix the technical stuff on your site, build content Google wants to show, sort your Google Business Profile fully, and build citations across the web. Most clients see real movement in 60–90 days. Top 3 usually takes 4–6 months depending on how competitive your area is.
A professional 5-page mobile-ready website — Home, About, Services, Contact, and one trade/location landing page. Live in 5 working days. Includes basic on-page SEO, click-to-call, contact form, and 1 month of free support. We also write all the copy so you don't have to.
When you miss a call on site, the AI texts the customer back within 2 seconds. It asks what job they need, where they are, and when they want it done. It books it into your calendar and sends you a notification. You just show up and do the work.
Google Ads can bring leads in 48 hours. SEO takes 60–90 days for real movement, with serious ranking gains at 4–6 months. The AI starts catching missed calls from day one.
Checkatrade charges £300–400/month for leads you share with 4 other tradesmen. We build you a system where leads come to you exclusively. One of our Bournemouth electricians cut his cost per lead by 72% compared to Checkatrade within 6 months.
GoHighLevel is a DIY platform that takes 10–20 hours a month to manage yourself. We build and run the whole thing. You're a tradesperson, not a marketer. You shouldn't be setting up automations at 11pm.
The £300 website is one-time — no contract. Monthly SEO and automation packages start with a 3-month minimum (so we can build your system and actually show results), then roll monthly. You stay because it's making you money, not because you're trapped.
Yes. We write all the copy. We can work with stock photography or guide you on taking quick job photos on your phone. Most clients just send us a few details about what they do and we handle everything else.
Yes — that's a core part of every package. We optimise it fully, set up weekly posts, build out all your services, and start getting you into the Map Pack. The top 3 map results get 44% of all local clicks — we put you there.
We started in Somerset and Dorset and know this market inside out. But we now work with trades across the UK. Local SEO principles work the same whether you're in Taunton or Newcastle.

Your competitors are already doing this.

Every day you wait is another day they're taking your customers. 15-minute call. We'll show you exactly what's happening in your area — your Google ranking, your missed calls, what your competitors are doing — and how to fix it. No obligation. No sales pitch.
