LA roofing/HVAC company floods the calendar with qualified leads

Challenge

An established roofing and HVAC company in Los Angeles was spending $8,000 per month on Google Ads with little to show for it. Their cost per lead had climbed to $185, and the leads they were getting were often unqualified shoppers comparing the lowest price. The phone was not ringing consistently, and the owner was close to cutting paid search entirely.

Solution
  • Local SEO overhaul with geo-targeted service pages and Google Business Profile optimization
  • Google Ads account restructure focused on high-intent keywords and negative keyword pruning
  • AI call tracking and intake scoring to identify which campaigns produced real booked jobs
  • Automated review generation system to build Google reputation and local map-pack authority
  • Landing page conversion rate optimization with clear offers and social proof

Dental Practice

Multi-location dental practice fills the schedule with new patients

Challenge

A growing dental group with multiple Southern California locations was receiving only 12 new patient inquiries per month across all practices. The front desk was busy handling existing patients, and the practice lacked a systematic follow-up process for missed calls or form submissions. Competitors were dominating local search and social advertising.

Solution
  • Multi-location local SEO with individual pages and listings for every practice
  • Facebook and Instagram ad campaigns targeting families and cosmetic dental intent
  • Automated booking system with calendar integration and appointment reminders
  • Patient testimonial video production and distribution across ad creative and website
  • Lead nurture sequences for consultations, cleanings, and specialty procedures

Restaurant Chain

3-location restaurant chain turns around a 23% revenue decline

Challenge

A three-location restaurant chain in Southern California had seen revenue decline 23% year over year. Online ordering was clunky, the email list was barely used, and social media had plateaued. The owner needed a coordinated digital strategy that could drive foot traffic and online orders without discounting the brand into the ground.

Solution
  • Social media campaigns highlighting signature dishes, events, and behind-the-scenes content
  • Google Ads targeting local food searches and branded competitor terms
  • Email and SMS automation with loyalty offers, new menu drops, and re-engagement flows
  • Online ordering platform optimization with upsells, bundles, and streamlined checkout
  • Local micro-influencer partnerships for authentic neighborhood reach

E-Commerce Brand

Online fashion retailer scales profitably without raising ad spend

Challenge

An online fashion retailer was running paid ads but barely breaking even with a 1.4x return on ad spend. Acquisition costs were eating margins, the website converted at only 1.2%, and email revenue was a tiny fraction of total sales. The founder needed to convert more existing traffic and make paid acquisition profitable.

Solution
  • Conversion rate optimization with A/B testing on product pages, cart, and checkout
  • Facebook and Instagram shopping ads built from catalog segmentation and creative testing
  • Email and SMS automation flows for abandoned carts, browse abandonment, and post-purchase upsells
  • Influencer marketing program with whitelisted content and affiliate tracking
  • Customer segmentation and personalized offers to increase repeat purchase rate

Legal Firm

Personal injury law firm grows qualified case leads without wasted spend

Challenge

A personal injury law firm was spending $15,000 per month on marketing but generating only 8 to 10 qualified leads per month. Cost per lead was unsustainable, and the intake team was spending hours disqualifying calls that were not real cases. The firm needed higher-intent leads and a better system to convert them into signed retainers.

Solution
  • High-intent Google Ads campaign targeting accident-specific keywords and geographic radius
  • Landing page optimization with trust signals, case results, and clear consultation offers
  • Video marketing strategy for YouTube and social proof across the website
  • Lead nurturing with automated follow-up for form fills and abandoned calls
  • Reputation management and review generation to build authority in a competitive market

Calls doubled inside the first quarter. I always know what's being worked on and why — full transparency, every week.

M. Alvarez
Home services owner, Los Angeles

We replaced a national agency. Same spend, half the cost-per-lead, and an actual senior strategist on the call.

S. Patel
Multi-location dental group

The AI follow-up caught the leads we were losing after hours. That alone paid for the engagement in month one.
