FOR LOCAL TRADES

Don't take my word for it.
Try it yourself.

You scanned the code, and you've heard the pitch a hundred times before. Forget the pitch. Below are three things you can try right now – a live demo, a live trade's website, and a 30-second calculator. Have a poke about, then decide if this would benefit your business.

Try It Yourself

1. See the missed-call fix work – 10 seconds

Call 07455 702309 from your mobile.

Let it ring, listen to the message (or don't), hang up, and watch the text land on your phone.

That's exactly what your customer gets the second you can't answer – under a sink, up a ladder, hands full.

The job that would've gone to the next name on Google stays yours.

2. See what missed calls are costing you – 30 seconds

Punch in your average job value and how many calls slip past you in a typical week – three sliders, that's the lot.

No sign-up, no email; your number's on screen almost instantly. It's honest, rough maths, not a scare tactic – but for most trades it usually shows a surprising number, quietly walking out the door.

Tick off what you've already got sorted and it shows you exactly where the work's leaking.

3. Play with a live trade website

This is ACME Plumbing Services – a full demo website we built, live, with an AI assistant that actually knows plumbing.

Go on it.

Ask the chatbot a proper question ("my combi's losing pressure, can you come out?"), book yourself a job, see how it handles it.

Currently it's trained on generic plumbing knowledge:
- over a hundred FAQs
- rich-text documents (such as 'Understanding Estimates, Pricing & What to Expect During a Service Visit')
- multiple uploaded documents providing more insight

And your business information will be added to that knowledge base to provide a fully comprehensive information source about your business for customers and prospects visiting your website. Plus a booking form and follow-up automations.

Then picture it with your name, logo & branding on it, answering your customers, with your business information at 11pm while you're asleep.

Try asking the chatbot:

"Do you do emergency call-outs?"

"How much to fix a dripping tap?"

"Can I book someone for Tuesday?"

What It Actually Is

When you're ready, here's the whole job – three easy things done properly:

1. Get Found

Your Google profile sorted so customers find you first, not the firm two towns over.
Lead capture optimised website with customised chat bot, enquiry and booking form – all with follow-up automations and tracking.

2. Catch Every Enquiry

Missed calls texted back
The website chatbot answering round the clock
Every lead chased.
Nothing dropped.

3. Build Your Reputation

Every finished job asked for a 5-star review, automatically.

That's it. A lot of what agencies pile on top of that, you don't need.

The Offer

£197/month. No setup fee. No contract.

Everything built, set up and run for you.
This is a totally done-for-you service

This is exactly what's included for that monthly fee:

Google Business Profile – optimised to show up higher on search result pages (created if you don't have one)
Website – built for capturing leads and getting found on Google (or keep your existing website if you prefer)
Chat bot – built in to the website (or added to your existing website)
Missed call text back – sitting behind your existing phone number to catch all the calls you miss
Review requests – every completed job sent a review request with follow-ups, plus review cards to hand to your happy customer
Review builder – past customers sent review requests to quickly improve your visible reputation
Tracking – every touch point tracked: online enquires, missed calls, bookings, website interaction and reviews
Reporting – monthly reports showing everything tracked so you know exactly how this is working for your business

Note: this is a bundled package and some of the above will be sold as additions in the future.

FOUNDER'S OFFER

£147/month. No setup fee. No contract.

Plus: First month free.

Everything in the regular offer but the risk is all mine.

I'm taking on the first handful of local trades as founding clients: your first month free, then £147/mo locked for life – the price never goes up, and there's no contract.

See it working before you pay a penny; if it's not earning its keep, walk away. And you still own everything – your site, your profile, your leads – nothing's held hostage if you leave.

The risk's mine, not yours – I only stick around if it's actually working for you.

And all I ask back is honest feedback and a review if I've earned it.

Note: Founding rate is for the first five trades – after that it's £197.

Whilst I've been providing local businesses with online marketing for nearly 20 years, LLE is new so hence the founder's offer.

WHy Me

I'm not a faceless funnel run from who-knows-where. I'm John – a real person you can actually get on the phone, who'll tell you straight what you need and, more usefully, what you don't.

Local Lead Engine is new. I'm not. I've been building websites and doing SEO and marketing for the best part of 20 years – long enough to know what genuinely moves the needle for a trade business and what's just expensive noise, with live sites I can reference for you.

And here's how I work: ask me anything. Your Google ranking, your reviews, why your website isn't bringing the calls in - anything. I'll give you a straight, useful answer whether you ever pay me a penny or not. No catch, no hard sell.

I don't hold the good stuff back either. I'll happily walk you through exactly how I'd fix your setup, step by step – because the honest truth is most people won't go and do it all themselves, and the ones who will are exactly the sort I like working with. Either way, you come out ahead.

Help first, no strings. If it turns into work, great. If it doesn't, you've still got something worth having.

Why The Bundle

"Can't I just have the missed-call bit?"

You can - but on its own it won't do much, and I'd rather be straight with you than take your money for half a job. The three pieces are built to work as one:

Get found, but don't catch it

And you've just paid to send more people to a business that drops half of them. More traffic down the same plughole.

Catch every enquiry, but no reputation

You text back like a shot, they check your Google, see three reviews against the next firm's two hundred, and book them anyway.

Rank and rack up reviews, but never follow up

and you're filling a bucket with a hole in the bottom. The work comes in and quietly leaks back out.

Get found, catch the enquiry, back it with a reputation, follow it up – that's the full loop. Take one piece out and it leaks somewhere. That's why it's one package and not a menu - not to pad the price, but because the bits don't earn their keep on their own.

Get the loop turning and you've got the thing most trades never build: a steady stream of work you can actually rely on - and a foundation you can scale when you're ready.

Let's address some concerns

I already have a website.

this works alongside it. And if yours isn't pulling its weight, I'll build you a better one (like the ACME demo). Either way, the system catches the enquiries your current setup is quietly letting slip.

What type of businesses is this suitable for?

Any local trade where people search nearby and get in touch by phone or a form before they book - plumbers, electricians, heating engineers, builders, roofers, landscapers, that lot. It works best if you're already getting a few enquiries and want to catch and convert more of them.

Will this increase the number of calls we get?

Partly, yes. Sorting your Google profile gets you seen by more people searching locally, so more enquiries come in. The rest of it makes sure the ones you already get don't slip away. It works both ends - more coming in, fewer lost.

Do I need to change my phone number?

No. Your number stays exactly as it is. The system sits quietly behind it, spotting the calls you miss and firing off the text. Your customer notices nothing different - you just stop losing the ones you can't get to.

Is this a CRM replacement?

No. If you've already got a CRM, this sits alongside it and gets on with its own job - catching enquiries, texting back missed calls, chasing follow-ups, asking for reviews. If you haven't got one, you don't need to go and buy some complicated software - this handles the bit that actually matters without the faff.

I already text or call missed callers back.

Good - you're ahead of most. The difference is this never slips. When you're flat out, calling back off memory falls apart, and the job's gone by the time you get to it. This fires the text back the second you miss the call, every time, without anyone having to remember. And you can actually see what's converting and what vanished.

What's involved in setting it up?

Nothing, at your end. It's done for you - I set up the call tracking, build the missed-call follow-up, sort the review requests, connect your forms and test the lot before it goes live. You just carry on working.

How long does it take to set up?

Usually a few days once you've given me access. No drawn-out onboarding, no homework for you.

How quickly does it start working?

The moment it's live. Missed calls start getting texted back, enquiries start getting logged, review requests start going out. You'll see it ticking over straight away - how much extra work it brings depends on how many calls you're currently missing.

Is there a contract?

No. It's month to month - if it's not earning its keep, cancel and we're done. I'd rather keep you because it's working than because you're tied in.

What if we don’t get many calls?

Then let's have a quick chat first. If barely anything's coming in, catching enquiries isn't your first problem - and I'll tell you that straight rather than sell you something you don't need. This is built for trades already getting a bit of enquiry flow who want to hold onto more of it.

Is this marketing?

Bit of both, if we're honest. Sorting your Google profile and racking up reviews brings more enquiries in - that's the marketing side. The missed-call catch and follow-up makes sure you actually win them. Think of it less as a campaign and more as the wiring behind your enquiries - always on, doing its job whether you're thinking about it or not.

How is this different to ads or SEO?

Ads and SEO turn the taps on - more people heading your way. This makes sure the water doesn't run straight down the plughole. Pour more traffic into a business that's dropping enquiries and you just lose more of them. Get this solid first, then it's the right time to spend on ads or SEO - which I can do for you when you're ready.

What if I grow and need more?

Good - it's built to grow with you. Once the basics are catching everything, we can add local SEO, Google Ads, a bigger website, more reporting - whatever the next step is. It's the foundation, not the ceiling.

Can we add SEO or Google Ads later?

Yep. Get the enquiry-handling solid first, then bolt the traffic on. I do both - so when you're ready, you're not off hunting for another agency.

If even a small percentage of enquiries are slipping through, the cost of doing nothing is usually higher than the cost of fixing it.
