# Free Marketing Consultation — Your Market, Mapped


Before anyone should sell you marketing, someone should measure it. The free consultation is a working session, not a sales call: we pull real data on your market, score your current presence, and hand you a plan you can execute with us or without us.

## What Happens in the Consultation?

Forty-five minutes, four steps:

1. **Service-area mapping** — the cities you serve, the trades and services you want to grow, and where the margin actually is. Growth plans built on your goals, not on generic keyword lists.
2. **Presence audit** — where you rank for your top services in your top cities, the state of your Google Business Profile and reviews, your website's speed and conversion paths, and any live ad accounts. Real numbers, on screen, while you watch.
3. **Competitor teardown** — who's taking the calls you want, and which specific signals put them there: their pages, their reviews, their ads. The gap between you and them becomes a checklist.
4. **Channel plan** — the sequence that fits your trade and budget across [SEO](/services/seo/), [Google Ads](/services/ppc/), [Local Service Ads](/services/local-service-ads/), [Meta Ads](/services/meta-ads/), your [website](/services/web-design/), and [follow-up automation](/services/automated-outreach/). Emergency trades sequence differently than project trades; the plan says which comes first and why.

## Who Is This For?

Owners and GMs of home-service companies — [plumbing](/industries/plumbing/), [HVAC](/industries/hvac/), [roofing](/industries/roofing/), [restoration](/industries/restoration/), [remodeling](/industries/remodeling/), [electrical](/industries/electrical/), [construction](/industries/construction/), [painting](/industries/painting/) — in three situations: never invested in digital marketing, burned by an agency that reported clicks instead of jobs, or currently running marketing that nobody can prove is working.

## What Do You Leave With?

A written summary: your current rankings, your competitor gaps, and a prioritized plan with rough budget ranges. It's yours either way. If we're a fit, the plan becomes the engagement. If we're not — wrong trade, wrong market timing, or you'd rather run it in-house — you still have the map.

## Why Free?

Because the audit sells better than any pitch. Our track record came from doing this inside a contracting business first — the same playbook later turned $360K in ad spend into [$2.8M of year-one revenue](/case-studies/) for a client. Showing you your market costs us an hour; if the numbers make the case, no persuasion is needed.

## What Should You Have Ready?

Nothing mandatory, but three things sharpen the session: access to your Google Business Profile, last month's lead count and source (even a guess), and your average job value. With those we can talk cost-per-booked-job math instead of generalities.
