Get Found Before They Search for Anyone Else.
Most homeowners start and end their search in under five minutes. They open Google, scan the top results, and call whoever looks most credible. We make sure that's you — through local SEO, GBP management, AEO, and paid search when you're ready to scale.
The Layered Approach
No single channel gets you found everywhere. Local SEO, GBP, AEO, and paid search each reach a different homeowner at a different moment. We build all of them as one connected system, not four separate vendors.
Local SEO — the organic foundation
We research the exact searches your next customer is typing and build your site, content, and citation profile around them. Not broad industry terms, but the specific local searches — “HVAC repair near me,” “emergency plumber [city name],” “garage door opener replacement” — that produce actual calls.
Google Business Profile — your map pack presence
The map pack appears above organic results and drives more clicks than any other placement for local searches. We claim, verify, and fully optimize your GBP — complete profile, precise service areas, weekly posts, photo updates, review responses — and monitor it as an active channel, not a set-it-and-forget-it listing.
AEO — being found by AI assistants and voice search
When someone asks their phone 'who's the best electrician near me' or uses Google's AI Overview, traditional SEO rankings aren't always what surfaces. AEO builds the structured data, direct-answer content, and citation authority that gets your business named and cited — not just listed — when AI assistants answer local service queries.
Paid search and social — layered in at Full Demand Gen
Once the organic foundation is earning results, paid search multiplies your visibility on the highest-intent searches. We manage Google and Facebook ads week-to-week, with ad spend billed at cost — no markup, no black box. You see exactly where your money goes.
What's Included
Local SEO built around how homeowners actually search
We target the searches that produce jobs — 'emergency plumber near me,' 'HVAC tune-up near me' — not broad industry terms that attract researchers instead of buyers.
Google Business Profile management
Complete, verified, and optimized — with weekly posts, review responses, photo updates, category precision, and ongoing monitoring. Your map pack position is an active project, not an afterthought.
Conversion-focused website
Built to turn visitors into calls, not just to rank. Fast-loading, mobile-first, with clear CTAs, trust signals, and a structure that moves someone from 'found you on Google' to 'called you' in the fewest possible steps.
Paid search and social ads
Managed week-to-week — no markup on ad spend, no long-term commitments per campaign. You see exactly where your budget goes, and we optimize based on what's producing calls, not clicks.
What Ranking #1 Actually Changes
more traffic for businesses ranking in the Google map pack
The three businesses in the local map pack capture more clicks than everything below them on the page combined. Position one in the pack gets roughly twice the click-through rate of position three. Getting into the pack is the single highest-leverage move for a local service business — and most contractors aren't doing the work to get there.
When someone asks a voice assistant or an AI chatbot who to call for a burst pipe, traditional search rankings don't always determine the answer. We build the structured data and citation authority that gets your business named — not just listed — when AI assistants field local service queries. It's early, but the contractors building this now will have a significant advantage within 18 months.

Common Questions
What's the difference between SEO and AEO?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is about ranking in Google's traditional blue-link results and map pack. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is about being cited by AI assistants — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google's AI Overviews, and voice search — when someone asks 'who's the best plumber near me?' The signals that drive AEO are different from traditional SEO: structured data, authoritative local citations, direct-answer content, and trust signals. Both matter. We build for both.
How long until I show up in local search results?
Paid search can drive calls within 48 hours of launch. Google Business Profile optimization typically shows meaningful movement within 30 days. Organic local SEO — ranking in the map pack and page-one results — takes 60 to 90 days to show significant movement, and compounding improvements continue well beyond that. We'll set clear expectations for each channel when we build your plan.
Do I need to run ads to get found?
No. Organic local SEO and Google Business Profile optimization alone can get you into the map pack for high-value searches without spending on ads. Paid search is additive — it accelerates volume once the organic foundation is in place, and it's particularly effective for high-urgency searches where speed matters. We recommend paid only when the organic foundation is solid and you're ready to scale.
What does 'managing my Google Business Profile' actually mean?
It means keeping every field complete, accurate, and optimized — business category, service areas, service list, hours, photos, and attributes. It also means posting weekly updates, responding to every review (positive and negative), monitoring for unauthorized edits, and tracking which profile features are driving calls and direction requests. Most contractors set up their profile once and never touch it again. We treat it as an active marketing channel.
Can I rank in towns where I don't have a physical office?
Yes, within reason. Google's local algorithm uses your verified service area, citation consistency, and job history signals to determine where you show up — not just your registered address. We build your service area signals properly so you rank in the towns you actually serve, not just the city your office is in.
