Contractor marketing — Sky Blue Growth Systems
Marketing for Contractor · East Bay & beyond

Paying Angi for shared leads and Yelp for clicks that never turn into jobs?

Most contractors we meet have the same story: they pay for leads that get sold to five other companies, their website doesn't bring calls, and nobody explains what the marketing money actually does. We fix that. We're a small team in Brentwood that sets up your Google listing, your website and your ads so the phone rings with real jobs — and we explain everything in plain English, every month.

Sound familiar?

You pay for leads that aren't really yours

Angi, HomeAdvisor and Thumbtack sell the same lead to you and four competitors. You're racing to call first and cutting your price to win.

You pay for clicks, not for jobs

Yelp charges you every time someone taps your ad, whether or not they ever call. And its filter can hide reviews from customers who really did hire you, so the rating you earned can quietly drop.

Your website just sits there

It looks fine, but it doesn't show up on Google and nobody calls from it. You paid for it once and haven't touched it since.

You're invisible on Google Maps

When someone in Brentwood searches 'contractor near me', your competitors show up in the top 3 with reviews. You don't.

You don't know what you're paying for

An agency sends a report full of charts you don't understand, and you still can't tell if the phone rang because of them.

Outcomes we drive for contractor

  • Your phone rings with people who found YOU on Google — not leads shared with 5 competitors
  • You show up in the Google Maps top 3 in the cities you actually work in
  • A website that turns visitors into calls — one tap to call or text you
  • Happy customers leave Google reviews without you having to chase them
  • One monthly report in plain English: calls, quote requests, where they came from

The contractor growth playbook

Your Google listing, done right

We set up and post to your Google Business Profile every week, with photos of your real jobs — so you show up when neighbors search.

A website that gets you calls

If your site doesn't bring calls, we rebuild it. One team handles the website and the marketing, so nothing gets lost between companies.

Ads that pay for themselves

Google ads aimed at people searching for your trade in your area. You pay Google directly — our management fee is separate and always on the table.

Reviews on autopilot

After each job, your customers get a simple text asking for a Google review. More reviews means more calls.

Local markets

Contractor marketing by city

We run localized campaigns, city-specific landing pages, and neighborhood targeting for contractor in the markets that matter most.

Contractor marketing — frequently asked

I'm not good with technology. Is this for me?

Yes — most of our contractor clients aren't. You don't need to learn any software. We set everything up, and your monthly report is a short plain-English summary: how many calls, how many quote requests, and what we did. If you ever have a question, you call or text Martin directly.

How is this different from Angi or HomeAdvisor?

They sell the same lead to you and your competitors — you're paying to race other contractors. We build your own presence on Google so customers find and call you directly. The leads are yours alone, and over time they cost less because your Google listing and reviews keep working even when ads pause.

Should I keep paying for Yelp ads?

Only if they're already sending you calls. Yelp charges you every time someone clicks, so a busy month can cost more than the jobs it brings, and Yelp's filter can hide reviews from customers who really did hire you. We keep your Yelp listing correct and up to date — that part is free and worth having — but we put the ad budget into Google, where people search right before they hire, and into a website you own.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $299/month and every plan is a custom quote based on your trade and the cities you cover. If you run ads, that budget goes straight to Google — you pay them directly, and our management fee is separate and always shown on your quote. No hidden costs.

Do you work with one-man operations or only big companies?

Both. A solo HVAC tech or landscaper usually starts with the Google listing, reviews and a simple website. Bigger crews add city pages and ads. We tell you honestly what makes sense for your size — we won't sell you things you don't need.
