Client Testimonial
"I've had 15 years of people pretending to know what they're doing with no real proof but charging a lot. My most recent was £22,000 over 18 months, then £780 a month to a directory with nothing to show. Within 1 month I was on the first page, majority of the time in first place. He's the first person who really knows what he's doing without the extortionate price tag."

Birmingham Boiler Repairs

15 Years of Expensive Marketing, Zero Results

Dave had tried every marketing option going — directories, lead gen, agencies. Nothing worked.

The Situation

Dave had been paying for expensive marketing services for 15 years, including costly directory listings and lead generation platforms, with minimal return on investment.

His previous providers charged £22,000 over 18 months, followed by £780/month to a major directory service — with barely any calls to show for it.

His legacy 15-page website wasn't generating enquiries, and the trade was heavily reliant on word-of-mouth with little online visibility.

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
