Birmingham Boiler Repairs

The Challenge

15 years of paying high fees with little to show for it. The business needed a website that actually brought in work.

The Situation

Dave had been paying for expensive marketing services for 15 years, including directory listings like Yell, with minimal return on investment.

His legacy 15-page website wasn't generating enquiries, especially during challenging summer months when heating work is traditionally slower.

The business was heavily reliant on word-of-mouth and repeat customers, with little online visibility for new customer acquisition.

The Goals
Increase online visibility for local heating and gas services
Generate consistent enquiries, especially during quieter summer periods
Expand service area reach into new Birmingham neighbourhoods
Rank competitively against established local competitors
