§ 01 · The problem

You already know the problem. It's costing you calls every week.

№ 01 · The agency route

You've tried the agency route. Three thousandup front, fifteen hundred a month, and a "monthly report" that doesn't explain why the phone still isn't ringing.

№ 02 · The DIY route

You've tried the DIY route. A weekend lost to Wix. Another weekend lost to GoDaddy. The site looks fine. It doesn't get you calls.

№ 03 · The wait

So you put it off. And every week, customers Google "[your service] near me," ask Siri, ask ChatGPT — and call whoever shows up first.

§ 02 · The shift

The way customers find you has changed. Most local sites haven't caught up.

Five years ago, ranking on Google was the whole game. That's not the game anymore.

Most websites built before 2024 were never engineered for what's happening now. Including the ones agencies are still selling for $5,000+.

Voice

Your customers are asking Siri "find a [service] near me."

LLMs

They're asking ChatGPT "who's the best [service] in [city]?"

Overviews

They're using Google's new AI Overviews instead of scrolling through blue links.

The cost

If your site isn't built to be read and recommended by these systems, you're invisibleto a growing share of your local market. Most local business sites we audit are completely invisible to AI crawlers. That's a fixable problem — but the fix isn't a faster template.

§ 03 · What we do

Three pieces. One system. Built in 24 hours.

Most "website" companies sell you a website and walk away. The website is one piece of how customers find you. Without your Google Business Profile dialed in, and without a way to capture the high-intent searches happening right now, the site sits there.

We build all three pieces together, so they actually work as one system.

Piece 01 · The Website

A premium, fast, conversion-engineered site.

Not a template — built specifically for your city, your services, and the way local customers actually search. Engineered to be found by Google, Siri, ChatGPT, and AI search. You own the code, the domain, everything.

Built in 24 hours · Yours forever

01
Piece 02 · Google Business Profile

Audited and optimized across 47 ranking factors.

We audit your profile against the 47 factors Google uses to rank local businesses, fix what's hurting you, and unlock what's missing. Most profiles need 10–15 specific improvements — we make them all in week one.

Categories, services, descriptions, photos, schema sync between your site and your listing — so you stop losing the local Map Pack to competitors who have less experience but better profiles. Usually the fastest source of new calls in the first 30 days.

Audit + improvements · Live in week one

02
Piece 03 · Google Ads Playbook

A complete, ready-to-run campaign.

Ad copy, keyword groups, negative keywords, landing page mapping, budget guidance, the whole launch sequence — mapped to your exact services, city, and target keywords.

Plus a recorded walkthrough video so you launch confidently. Or hand it to whoever runs your ads.

Yours to launch on day one

§ Stack closer

This is what local lead generation actually looks like in 2026. Not just a website. The complete system, built in a day, owned by you.

Website + GBP + Ads · 24 hrs
§ 04 · The monthly

The setup is the start. The monthly is what closes the gap.

Most providers stop at delivery. The site is live, the GBP is dialed, the ads playbook is in your inbox — and then nothing. Six months later you're back to square one, wondering why the calls slowed down.

The monthly is what keeps the system improving. Every month we re-run the same Gap Report you got for free — except now we're measuring how much the gap closed. You see your rank move. You see reviews climb. You see AI search start citing you. In real numbers.

What's in every monthly tier:

  • Monthly Gap Report — The same audit format, re-run on your business every 30 days. You see exactly what moved.
  • Recorded video walkthrough— A 10-minute video each month showing what changed, what we did, and what's next. Watch it in the truck. Skip the call.
  • Google Business Profile management— Weekly posts, photo uploads, Q&A monitoring and responses, service catalog updates. The activity Google rewards.
  • Review acquisition system — NiceJob built into your workflow. Customers get a text within an hour of job completion asking for a review. Happy ones go to Google. Unhappy ones go to you. Normally $150/month standalone — included.
  • Call tracking— CallRail set up across your website, GBP, and ads. Every call attributed to its source so you know what's working. Normally $45/month standalone — included.
  • Blog content — 2–4 SEO-optimized blog posts per month, targeting the searches your customers actually run. Written for operators, not for Google.
  • Quarterly new page — A new service page or city page each quarter. Targeted to expand what you rank for over time.
  • Monthly competitor watch — We track your top 3 local competitors. When they change something — new service, new schema, new pricing — you find out from us.

If you also want us running your Google Ads, that's the Growth tier (below). Honest ad management requires ongoing weekly work, and at $497/mo we'd be lying if we said we could do it well. We're upfront about that.

§ Cancel anytime after month 3. The site, the GBP work, and the playbook are yours either way.

§ 05 · Pricing

$997 to build it. Pick a monthly to keep it working.

§ 06 · The guarantee

If the gap doesn't close in 90 days, we work for free until it does.

Most agencies measure things you can't verify. "Impressions." "Engagement." "Brand awareness." We measure three things you can:

  • Where you rank for your top local searches
  • How many Google reviews you have
  • Whether AI search can see your business

These are the same three KPIs in your Gap Report. We measure them on day one. We re-measure them on day 90.

If at least two of the three haven't measurably improved by day 90, we keep working at no monthly charge until they do.

This is a real guarantee because the metrics are objectively verifiable. Anyone can pull rank data. Anyone can count reviews. Anyone can ask ChatGPT about your business.

We can offer this because we already know what works. We're not guessing.

§ 08 · Who it's for

Who this works for.

Local Lift Engine is built for local service businesses doing $50K–$500K in annual revenue, who want to stop losing local search to companies they know they can out-work.

✓ Built for you

Running real jobs. Missing real calls. Tired of agencies.

If you're somewhere in between — already operating, growing, but feeling like the website is the weak link — that's exactly who we built this for.

Type of businessLocal service: junk removal, HVAC, roofing, landscaping, cleaning, pest control, electricians, plumbers, and similar trades
Revenue$50K–$500K annual
GeographicWe're based in the Pacific Northwest. We serve clients anywhere in the US and Canada.
State of mindDone with agency retainers that don't move the numbers
— Not the right fit yet

If you're under $50K, or a multi-location franchise.

If you're under $50K and just starting out, you need volume, not infrastructure. Spend your money on ads and on building word-of-mouth first.

If you're a multi-location franchise with an in-house marketing team, you have other tools available — and our pricing isn't built for your scale.

Too earlyPre-revenue or under $50K — focus on volume first
Too bigMulti-location franchises with in-house marketing
Wrong fitB2B services, e-commerce, or anything that isn't local + service-based

§ 10 · FAQ

Honest answers to the questions we get most.

Q.01
Is this just another AI website tool?
No. AI is part of how we build, but the value isn't the AI — it's the local market research, the technical engineering, the GBP optimization work, and the ad playbook. You can't get this from ChatGPT and a Wix template.
Q.02
Why is the monthly required? Can I just buy the setup?
The setup is the start of the system. The monthly is what closes the gap and keeps it closed. Reviews need to be collected continuously. Google Posts need to keep going. AI search citations build over months, not days. The agencies that sell "just a website" make money once and leave you to figure out the rest. We don't operate that way.

That said — if you genuinely only want the website and no ongoing work, email us and ask. We have a website-only option that's not on this page. It costs more up front and you're on your own after. We'll tell you whether it makes sense for your situation.
Q.03
What does the 90-day guarantee actually mean?
We measure three things on day one: your rank for your top local searches, your Google review count, and your AI search visibility. We re-measure on day 90. If at least 2 of the 3 haven't measurably improved, we keep working at no monthly charge until they do. This is in your contract, not a marketing line.
Q.04
Do you actually run my Google Ads?
Only on the Growth tier ($1,497/mo). At Core ($497/mo) we give you the playbook and a recorded walkthrough so you (or whoever runs your ads) can launch confidently.

Why this split? Honest ad management requires weekly work — bid adjustments, negative keywords, landing page tweaks, conversion tracking. At $497/mo we'd be lying if we said we could do it well. We'd rather be upfront and price it correctly than overpromise.
Q.05
What does "GBP optimization" actually include?
We audit your profile against the 47 factors Google uses to rank local businesses. Categories, services, descriptions, photos, schema sync, posting cadence, Q&A seeding, review acquisition system. Most profiles need 10–15 specific fixes — we make them all in week one. For most local businesses, this is the single fastest driver of new calls in month one.
Q.06
What if I just want help with my GBP?
We offer a $297 one-time GBP-only sprint — audit + 30-day optimization, no website, no monthly. Email us and ask about it. It's not on the pricing page because the full system is usually the better fit, but for some businesses it's the right starting point.
Q.07
Do I own the site, or are you holding it hostage?
You own it. Domain, code, content, everything. If you ever stop working with us, you keep the site and the playbook. We hand over the GitHub repo. No hostages.
Q.08
How is this different from what an agency would build?
Agencies typically take 4–8 weeks and charge $3,000–$10,000 for the website alone, then bill you $1,000+/month for "maintenance" that doesn't change anything. We deliver website + GBP + ads playbook in 24 hours, charge $997 to build it, and the monthly is for actual ongoing work — not maintenance. Same caliber of work. Different business model.
Q.09
How is this different from doing it myself with ChatGPT?
You can absolutely try. Most owners we talk to have already tried. The hard parts aren't the writing — they're the local market data, the technical SEO, the GBP optimization, the schema markup, the ad campaign architecture, and the design. Those are what we automated with engineering, not just prompts.
Q.10
What if I already have a website?
Most of the businesses we work with already have one. The question isn't whether you have a site — it's whether the system around it is doing its job. If your phone isn't ringing, the Gap Report will show you exactly why.
Q.11
Why don't you do strategy calls?
Service business owners don't have time for calls. You're on a job, or driving, or quoting, or hiring. We replaced every strategy call with a recorded video walkthrough you can watch in the truck. 10 minutes, on your time, explaining exactly what changed and what's next.
Q.12
Which industries do you serve?
Local service businesses — junk removal, HVAC, roofing, landscaping, cleaning, pest control, electricians, plumbers, and similar trades. We started with junk removal in the Pacific Northwest, which is where our demo lives. We've since opened to adjacent service niches and locations across the US and Canada. If you're not sure if you fit, just ask.
Q.13
How long until I see results?
GBP improvements typically start showing up within 7–14 days — that's usually the first source of new calls. Website ranking improvements compound over 4–8 weeks. Google Ads can drive calls from day one if you fund the campaign. Our 90-day guarantee covers the full ramp window. Anyone promising leads in week one without paid ads is selling you something else.
Q.14
Can I cancel?
Yes. Core: cancel anytime after month 3. Growth: cancel anytime after month 6. You keep the site, the GBP optimization stays in place, and you get a final Gap Report showing where you are. No hostages, no clawbacks.
