A quick note
You’re great at the work. Getting the phone to ring is the hard part.
Most trades we talk to have tried marketing before. It usually goes like this:
- You paid for ads, and the calls were people asking for free advice.
- Competitors with worse reviews show up above you on Google Maps.
- You get a monthly report full of “impressions”, and no idea how many jobs it brought.
- You’re locked into a 12-month contract you can’t get out of.
We fix that. We only work with home-service businesses around Edmonton, and we measure one thing: booked jobs.

Questions you’re probably asking
How much does an Edmonton digital marketing agency cost?
It depends on how many services and towns you want to win and how competitive your trade is. After the free audit we send a fixed monthly quote in writing, with no setup surprises. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and never marked up.
Do you lock clients into long contracts?
No. We work month to month with 30 days notice. Website projects have a fixed scope and price.
Who owns the ad accounts, website and data?
You do. Your Google Ads account, Google Business Profile, analytics, website and content are in your name. We work inside them with access you can remove at any time.
Why do you only work with home-service businesses?
Because focus makes us better and faster. We already know the searches, seasons, costs and Google rules for trades like roofing, HVAC and plumbing, so you are not paying for us to learn your industry.
Will you work with my competitors?
Not in your area. We take one business per trade per service area, so we never bid against ourselves for the same customer.
How quickly will I see results?
Google Ads and Local Services Ads can bring calls within days of going live. Google Business Profile fixes show within weeks. SEO usually takes three to six months to build real momentum.
What is in the free audit?
A review of your Google Ads (if you run them), Google Business Profile, website and top three local competitors, with the three changes most likely to bring in more jobs. It is yours to keep whether or not you hire us.
