Case study: Home services
No customers, no reviews, no website. Just a network of people the owners knew. We started social media on day one, built the website and Google profile behind it, and answered the questions homeowners search. Four months later the phone was ringing two to three times a day.
Evolution Media Group launched a brand new home services company with social media from day one, then a website, Google Business Profile, and SEO and AEO content including FAQs, guides, and blogs. Social media produced the first job within two weeks, search produced the first lead within 30 days, and by month four the company had 2 to 3 leads a day and was generating $250,000 a month with no paid ads in the first three months.
The challenge
The company was brand new. The owners had a network of people they knew and nothing else: no website, no Google profile, no reviews, no customers, and no name anyone recognized.
They needed work right away to keep the business going, and a system that would keep producing leads long after their personal network ran out.
Every piece had to be built from nothing, and the business needed jobs from the first week.
What we built
Timeline
The results
By month four the company was generating $250,000 a month, driven mainly by organic search and AI-driven leads from Google. There were no paid ads in the first three months.
The owners added crew, expanded into new services, and grew into new towns. They invested in people and equipment to keep up with demand.
While other contractors in the market were looking for steady work, this company was booking weeks out.
"I thought this might help us get a job or two each month, which would have paid for the marketing, but this is beyond what I ever expected. We are booking out weeks when other contractors can't find steady work."
The owner, in conversation with Harrison Smith
Why it worked
Social media reached the owners' network on day one and produced jobs while the slower channels were being built.
Website, then Google profile, then content. Each piece made the next one work better, and nothing was wasted on ads before the foundation could convert.
FAQs and guides reached homeowners during their research, so the company was a familiar name by the time they were ready to hire.
With no old listings or mismatched details to fix, Google and AI tools got one consistent story about the business from the beginning.
What is next
They are still a client and booked out three months ahead. We keep building the pipeline as they add services and expand into new territory.
