LOCAL LEAD GENERATION • A PRACTICAL 2026 APPROACH

Good at the work.
Hard to find online?

A quiet website and another paid lead list won’t build your business. We help local contractors and service businesses build a clearer path from being found to being contacted.

Start a conversation about your scope. Not a promise of instant customers.

Built for businesses that do the work.
Construction • Trades • Local services

Your business. Your presence.

Managed campaigns, not pay-per-lead.

Clear scope before you start.

WHY ANOTHER LEAD LIST ISN’T THE FIX

Tired of paying to race for the same job?

You don’t need a louder sales pitch. You need a presence that helps people understand your business
before they call.

The same inquiry. Several businesses.

A shared inquiry can go to more than one contractor. You pay for a chance to respond, not a customer who has chosen you.

The conversation starts with price.

When every quote looks alike, it’s harder to show why your experience, reliability and workmanship are
worth choosing.

Keep paying. Keep starting over.

Buying the next inquiry doesn’t necessarily improve your website, reviews or local presence. Stop spending, and that source can stop too.

ONE CONNECTED OFFER. FIVE PRACTICAL PARTS.

Build a path to your business.
Not another list to chase.

Gold Leaf Lead Gen brings the essentials together in one entry retainer. Each part has a job: help people
find you, trust you and get in touch.

Google Business Profile optimization

Review your profile, clarify your services and areas, and improve the accuracy of your hours, photos and business information as appropriate. Give local customers a clearer picture of what you do.

Testimonial capture & reuse

Make it easier to ask real customers for honest feedback. Reuse approved testimonials where people are deciding whether to call.

A landing page built for inquiries

Clear services, service areas, proof and an obvious way to contact you. A focused destination for your campaigns, even if your current site needs work.

Ad campaign management

We plan, manage and refine campaigns for your business within the agreed budget. You pay for management and ad spend—not a list of shared inquiries.

Light AI search visibility

Clear service and location information, helpful FAQs and structured business information make your business easier to understand across search tools.

Start with the profile. The landing page, testimonials, ads and search information follow in the sequence agreed for your scope.

DIRECT INQUIRIES. A STRONGER FOUNDATION.

Build your presence, not someone else’s list.

THE DIFFERENCE

Shared lead platforms

Gold Leaf Lead Gen

How people find you

An inquiry is distributed by a lead platform.

People contact you through your profile, page or campaigns.

What you’re building

Access to the next batch of inquiries.

Your own business presence and a direct inquiry path.

Why they contact you

Often to compare several quotes quickly.

They can see your services, work and customer feedback first.

What you pay for

Access to inquiries under a platform’s model.

Agreed management fees plus a separate ad budget.

“Owned” means your presence and your inquiry path—not ownership of a person. We don’t sell the same inquiry to other businesses. A customer can still contact other contractors.

A FOCUSED FIRST STEP

First 30 days

Google Business Profile. That’s the focus.

We start with the information people see when they look for your business locally. A practical foundation—not a rushed promise to launch everything.

Review the profile

Look at your current Google Business Profile and identify what needs attention.

Get the essentials accurate

Review services, service areas and opening hours against how your business actually operates.

Add useful trust information

Update photos and business details as appropriate, using the materials and access available.

Record a baseline & check in

Note the starting position, review completed changes and agree on the next steps.

A starting point, not a results deadline.

The first 30 days do not promise leads, rankings or a full-system launch. The broader landing page, testimonial, ad and search work is sequenced afterward, based on your agreed scope, access and materials.

ONE BUNDLED ENTRY RETAINER

A clear plan. A scope that fits.

The five essentials are bundled into one practical offer. We confirm what your business needs, the order
of work and the cost before you start.

LOCAL HOME SERVICES & SERVICE BUSINESSES

Gold Leaf Lead Gen
Pricing based on your scope

One retainer for a clearer local presence, stronger trust information and a direct path to contact your business.

Talk through your scope before making a commitment.

Included in the agreed scope

Management fees and ad spend are separate. Your fees, ad budget and scope are confirmed before work begins.

Google Business Profile first. Broader elements follow by agreed scope.

Subscription & renewal

Your retainer fee, billing schedule, any minimum term, renewal arrangements and cancellation terms are confirmed in writing before sign-up. Review them before agreeing to the plan.

Support & warranty terms

Ongoing support scope, how to request help, and any warranty or refund terms are confirmed in writing before sign-up. No lead, ranking or revenue guarantee is part of this page.

More locations or a bigger project?

For multi-location businesses, larger campaigns or complex website needs, start with a consultation so we can agree on the right scope.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS BEFORE YOU START

What you need to know.

Does my old website need to be replaced?

Not necessarily. A focused landing page can give campaigns a clear destination without replacing your whole site. We review what you have and agree on what needs changing.

Is ad spend included in the retainer fee?

Management fees and ad spend are distinct. We agree on the management cost, ad budget and what each covers before you start. There is no preset ad budget on this page.

Are these shared leads?

We don’t sell the same inquiry to other businesses. People contact you through your business presence and campaigns. They remain free to ask other contractors for a quote.

What should I expect in the first 30 days?

Google Business Profile work only: a profile review, accurate services, areas and hours, appropriate photos and trust information, and a baseline/check-in. No promise of leads, rankings or a full-system launch by day 30.

Can you get my business recommended by AI?

No one can guarantee an AI recommendation. We make service and location information clearer, add helpful FAQs and structure business information. These are useful basics, not a promise of visibility.

Who follows up on the inquiries?

You or your team handles calls, replies, quotes and bookings. We agree on where inquiries go so you know who is responsible. Campaign management is not a substitute for your follow-up.

What ongoing support is included?

Support is defined by your agreed scope. Before sign-up, we confirm what is managed, how to request help, and any warranty or refund terms in writing. Ask about anything you need included.

How do renewal and cancellation work?

The fee, billing schedule, any minimum term, renewal arrangements and cancellation terms are confirmed in writing before sign-up. There are no assumed month-to-month or cancel-anytime terms here.
