If You've Been Burned By "Marketing Experts" Before, You're Not Alone

Every week, tradies across NZ & AUS tell us the same story. We're changing how this industry treats you.

💸 You Spent Thousands on Ads That Brought ZERO Jobs

You hired an agency. They promised "awareness" and showed fancy dashboards full of clicks and impressions—then went quiet when you asked, "Where are the jobs?"

"Spent $5k with an agency. Didn't book a single job."

🤡 The Only "Leads" You Got Were Cheap Time-Wasters

When the phone DID ring, it was people asking "What's your cheapest option?" or "Can you match this other quote?" These aren't customers who value quality work. They're bargain hunters who'll nitpick every detail and leave you a 3-star review because you wouldn't work for free.

"Tired of tire-kickers who want champagne work on a beer budget."

😤 Nobody "Gets" Your Business—They Just Want Retainers

Corporate marketing agencies treat your construction company like every other client. Same templates. Same strategy. Same BS. They've never worn work boots, never dealt with a difficult homeowner, never stressed about making payroll when work dries up.

"If my jobs had no guarantees, my clients would tell me to get lost."

Here's Why Every Marketing Agency Has Failed You

(And it's not your fault)

Why generic campaigns fail local tradies

Every agency you've hired uses the SAME playbook designed for e-commerce stores and SaaS companies. They target "homeowners within 25 miles" and blast generic ads about "quality craftsmanship" and "years of experience."

That's why you only attract price shoppers.

These cookie-cutter campaigns can't tell the difference between someone ready to drop $50K on a kitchen remodel and someone just "browsing" on their lunch break.

Worse? These agencies get paid whether you book jobs or not. They have ZERO skin in the game.

So they optimize for THEIR goals (keeping you on retainer), not YOUR goals (booking profitable jobs).

Introducing: The Local-Proof-Engine™

Built exclusively for NZ & AUS residential contractors. You only pay for results. If we don't deliver, you get a full refund.

1

Show Your REAL Work

We create campaigns that showcase YOUR actual completed projects—with specific details homeowners care about. Not "We do quality renovations." But real transformations with real details. Your work does the talking.

2

Filter Out Tire-Kickers BEFORE They Waste Your Time

Using proprietary targeting and qualification questions, we pre-screen leads BEFORE they reach you. Our in-house sales team personally calls every prospect and verifies they have real budgets, real projects, and real timelines.

3

Pay Only For Results

One-time setup fee. Zero monthly retainers. We take 1%–3% of the jobs we help you book. If you're not making money, neither are we. Simple as that.

Real Contractors. Real Results. No BS.

Why We Only Work With Residential Contractors

We're specialists. No dentists, lawyers, restaurants, or SaaS—just tradies across NZ & AUS.

1) We Speak Your Language

No corporate buzzwords. No "synergy" or "brand awareness" nonsense.

We talk about job bookings, crew schedules, and profit margins—the stuff that actually matters when you're running a trade business.

2) We Know What Works

We've helped 30+ residential contractors in your exact situation:

Burnt by agencies
Stuck in feast-or-famine
Tired of tire-kickers
✅ Wanting steady, profitable work


We know the objections homeowners have. We know the questions that qualify serious buyers. We know how to showcase your work in a way that attracts quality clients—not price shoppers.

3) We Have Skin in the Game

When you win, we win.
When you don't book jobs, we don't get paid.

That's how confident we are in this system.

No other agency will put their money where their mouth is like this. They can't—because their generic templates don't work well enough to guarantee results.

Ours does.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from every other agency I've tried?

Three massive differences:

1. We exclusively work with residential contractors—no other industries. We know your business.

2. Our in-house sales team personally calls and qualifies every lead before it reaches you—so you only talk to warm, ready-to-buy prospects.

3. We don't charge monthly retainers—we take a small revenue share (1%–3%) of the jobs we help you book. If you're not making money, neither are we.

No other agency operates this way because they can't guarantee results. We can.

What if I'm in a competitive market?

Even better. Competitive markets have MORE demand—you just need to stand out.

The Local-Proof-Engine™ is specifically designed to make you the obvious choice by showcasing your actual work (not generic claims), targeting homeowners who value quality (not price shoppers), and pre-qualifying leads so you're not competing on price.

In competitive markets, most contractors use the same boring ads. That's your advantage.

How quickly will I see results?

Most contractors get their first qualified lead within 5–10 days of launch.

We guarantee results within 90 days or you get a full refund.

But honestly? Most guys are booking their first job within the first month.

Do I need to be "tech savvy"?

Hell no.

For Done-For-You clients: We handle everything. You just be ready for a site visit.

For DIY clients: Our training is built for tradespeople, not marketing nerds. If you can use a smartphone and send an email, you can do this.

What if my crew is already busy?

Then you don't need us right now—and that's totally fine. Bookmark this page and come back when your schedule opens up.

But ask yourself: Would you rather have 3–6 months of work lined up, or constantly stress about where the next job is coming from?

Most contractors wish they'd started building their pipeline BEFORE they needed it.

Can I switch from DIY to Done-For-You later?

Absolutely.

Start with the DIY program ($997). Learn the system. See how it works.

If you decide you'd rather have us run it for you, we'll credit your $997 toward the Done-For-You setup fee.

Zero risk. Total flexibility.

How does the revenue share work?

Simple:

After we set up your campaigns (from $2,997 NZD), we take 1%–3% of the jobs we help you book.

Example:

  • • We generate a qualified lead
  • • You quote the job at $40,000
  • • You book the job
  • • We take 1%–3% ($400–$1,200) once you're paid

No monthly retainers. No hidden fees. We only get paid when you get paid.

What if the lead doesn't convert into a job?

You don't pay us anything.

We only take revenue share on jobs that actually close.

If a lead doesn't convert (they hire someone else, change their mind, whatever), you owe us nothing.

We're literally betting on your success.

Stop Chasing Jobs. Start Booking Them.

Every day you wait is another day your competitors are filling their pipeline while you're stuck refreshing your email hoping for referrals.

Here's what happens if you do nothing:

  • You'll probably waste another $5K on an agency that overpromises and underdelivers
  • You'll spend another year stuck, stressing about payroll
  • You'll keep getting calls from tire-kickers who waste your time and never book
  • You'll eventually burn out and wonder why you didn't act sooner

Or you can take control right now. Choose your path:
