Getting
started

The first call, the first weeks, and what we need from you to begin.

01

How fast will I see results?

Ads and the AI receptionist start working in the first weeks. Local SEO builds momentum over 3–6 months — that’s the honest timeline anyone should give you.

02

Do you work with my industry?

We focus on local service businesses — home services, medical, legal, real estate, auto, beauty and more. If your clients call before they buy, the playbook fits.

03

What does the first call look like?

Twenty minutes about your goals, your market and your current numbers. No slides and no pitch — we ask questions, you get a straight recommendation and a plan with a quote within three days.

04

Do I need to prepare anything?

Nothing formal. Your website address, a rough monthly budget and what “more clients” means for you is enough. Access to Google Ads or your Business Profile helps, but can wait until we start.

05

Do you sign an NDA?

Yes. Send yours or ask for ours — we sign before any details of your business are discussed.

Pricing &
contracts

Fixed quotes, monthly plans, and what happens if you want to stop.

01

What does it cost?

A fixed quote after a 20-minute call and a look at your current numbers. No hourly meters — the price you sign is the price you pay. Ongoing work is a flat monthly plan; see the Pricing page for the tiers.

02

Are there long-term contracts?

No. Plans are monthly and you can cancel anytime. We keep clients with results, not with paperwork.

03

What’s included in the monthly plan?

Management of the channels in your plan, the AI receptionist, tracking, a monthly report with booked jobs and cost per lead, and a person to call. Ad spend is paid to Google or Meta directly and is not part of our fee.

04

Do you charge setup fees?

Only when there is real setup work: a new website, a store, an app or a from-scratch ad account. It is quoted once, in writing, before we start.

05

Can I pause the plan for the off-season?

Yes. Seasonal businesses pause ads and keep the AI receptionist and the site running. Tell us the dates and we adjust the plan.

Ads &
leads

Which ads to run, how we count a lead, and what a booked job should cost.

01

Google Ads or Local Services Ads?

Usually both. Local Services Ads win on cost per call, Search wins on job size and control. We start with the mix that fits your budget and move money to whichever books more jobs.

02

How do you track a booked job?

Every call, form and chat is tagged to its source, and the AI receptionist writes the booking into your calendar. The monthly report shows jobs, not clicks.

03

What is a good cost per lead?

It depends on the job size: a dental implant lead and a drain cleaning lead should not cost the same. We benchmark your industry and city in the first report and set a target per booked job.

04

Do I need a big budget to start?

No. Most local businesses start between $1,500 and $3,000 a month in ad spend. Below that, we usually recommend fixing the Business Profile and the site first.

AI
receptionist

What it does on the phone, in which languages, and where a human steps in.

01

What exactly does the AI receptionist do?

It answers every call 24/7, qualifies the lead, books the appointment into your calendar and sends you a summary. You only talk to people ready to buy.

02

Does it speak Spanish?

Yes — English and Español, switching by the caller’s first words. Bilingual answering is included in every plan.

03

What if the caller wants a human?

The call is transferred to you or your team right away. If no one picks up, the receptionist takes the details and a person calls back — within one business hour on weekdays.

04

Where do the bookings go?

Into the calendar you already use — Google Calendar, Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan and most booking tools. You get a text and an e-mail with every new appointment.

05

Can I listen to the calls?

Every call is recorded and transcribed. You can read or listen to any conversation in your dashboard the same day.

Websites,
SEO & Maps

Timelines, platforms, ownership — and how long local search really takes.

01

Do I need a new website?

Not always. We audit what you have first — sometimes a tune-up and tracking are enough, sometimes a rebuild pays for itself. You get a straight recommendation either way.

02

How long does a website take?

A business site: 4–6 weeks from brief to launch. A store: 6–10. Custom software is scoped per project with a fixed date. Either way, you click a working version by week two.

03

WordPress, Shopify or custom code?

Whatever your business needs, not what we prefer: WordPress for content sites, Shopify or WooCommerce for stores, custom code when a boxed product would bend your process.

04

Who owns the site and the code?

You do — always. Domain, hosting, code and content are registered to your business and stay with you if we ever part ways.

05

How long does local SEO take?

The Business Profile and reviews move within weeks; the map pack for competitive searches takes 3–6 months. We show the rank grid every month so you see the progress, not just the promise.

Working
together

Who you talk to, how we report, and what happens after launch.

01

Who is my point of contact?

One strategist who knows your account, reachable by phone, e-mail and messenger. No ticket queues.

02

How do you report results?

One page a month: booked jobs, cost per lead, calls answered, rankings, what we changed and what comes next. Plus a dashboard you can open any day.

03

What happens after launch?

A care plan: hosting, backups, updates, monitoring and a person to call. The next improvement is planned when the numbers ask for it, not by a calendar.

04

Can you fix what another agency built?

Yes. We audit the accounts and the site first, keep what works and rebuild only what costs you calls. You keep full access to everything throughout.
