The problem

Dave was spending £300 a month on Checkatrade chasing shared leads alongside 10 other plumbers. His existing website hadn't been updated in years and wasn't ranking for any local search terms. He was missing 3–5 calls a week with no follow-up in place.

What we installed

• New conversion-optimised website with service and location pages
• Local SEO targeting Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch
• Missed call text-back automation
• Google Business profile optimisation

The outcome

First direct enquiry came in within 9 days of the website going live. By week six Dave was receiving 8–10 new enquiries per week — all direct, no platform fees.

The problem

Mark's website hadn't been touched since 2019 and was sitting on page 3+ for every relevant search term. He had no CRM, no follow-up system, and was relying entirely on repeat work and referrals to keep busy.

What we installed

• Full website rebuild with SEO-optimised service pages
• Local SEO for Poole, Bournemouth and surrounding areas
• Google Business profile management and keyword targeting
• CRM and automated enquiry follow-up sequences

The outcome

Google Business impressions increased significantly within the first month. By week seven Mark was ranking on page one for his core search terms and averaging 8–12 new enquiries per week.

The problem

Ryan's building business suffered from a seasonal feast and famine cycle — busy summers, dead winters. His only online presence was a basic Facebook page. He had no way to generate consistent work year-round.

What we installed

• New website with portfolio, service and location pages
• SEO targeting extensions, renovations and new builds
• Automated review request sequences
• Year-round content and visibility strategy

The outcome

Review count grew from 4 to 31 Google reviews in 90 days. Ryan now has consistent year-round enquiries and had to take on an additional labourer to keep up with demand.

The problem

Scott was spending £500+ a month on Rated People and MyBuilder, buying shared leads that were sent to 5 or 6 competing roofers at the same time. Conversion was low and the leads were often poor quality.

What we installed

• SEO-focused website built for direct organic traffic
• Google Business dominance strategy for local roofing searches
• Automated follow-up sequences to maximise lead-to-booking conversion

The outcome

Scott switched off both paid lead platforms entirely by month two. Direct enquiries from his website now exceed the volume he was getting from platforms — with zero cost per lead.

The problem

Tom was missing calls constantly while on the tools with no way to follow up. Potential customers would call once, get no answer, and call a competitor. He estimated losing 3–4 jobs a week this way.

What we installed

• Missed call text-back automation (fires within 60 seconds of a missed call)
• New website with clear calls to action
• Google Business profile optimisation

The outcome

In the first 7 days after go-live, Tom's text-back system caught 7 missed callers. Four of them replied and booked jobs — two of which were boiler replacements worth over £2,000 each.
