03 / Services

Core expertise

Paid advertising

Campaign strategy, setup, management, and improvement for Google Ads, Facebook and Instagram Ads, and ChatGPT Ads. Channel selection follows the contractor’s services, market, budget, and agreed scope. Paid media can use an existing website.

Websites & Local Visibility

A website TCM builds and manages, combined with website care, technical SEO, AI Search Optimization (GEO), Google Business Profile upkeep, review-request workflows, review monitoring and response support, and monthly visibility and inquiry reporting.

Local Visibility plans cover one business location and an agreed service area, with one or two new or substantially improved pages each month. Website build and initial setup are separate from the monthly service. Compare Local Visibility plans.

Conversion tracking & lead follow-up

Call and form tracking, source attribution, CRM workflows, and lead routing help connect marketing activity with inquiry quality and booking feedback. The exact tools and integrations depend on the engagement.

Paid media and Local Visibility are available independently or together. Explore our services and current pricing for plan details, setup fees, media budgets, and separately billed usage.

04 / How we work

Our approach & systems

• Start with the right work. Agree on the services, markets, offer, budget, and capacity the contractor wants to grow.
• Use real project experience. Build messages and useful content around the contractor’s work, service expertise, photos, and customer feedback.
• Make the next step clear. Connect ads and pages to a relevant call, inquiry, estimate request, or appointment.
• Connect the inquiry journey. Link campaign sources, calls, forms, CRM stages, and follow-up where the agreed tools support them.
• Learn from outcomes. Review spend and inquiry quality alongside the client’s feedback on appointments and sold work.

AI supports campaign preparation, copy options, and performance review. Our team checks the work and makes campaign decisions. Contractors remain responsible for answering inquiries, estimating, and selling their services.

Client-owned accounts and clear access are central to our delivery. The contractor controls its domain, Google Business Profile, and ad accounts. Ownership and handoff of paid-for custom work follow the agreement; reusable TCM tools and third-party licenses have their own terms.

05 / Fit

Ideal clients

TCM works with roofing and home service businesses, including roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, and remodeling.

A good fit is a contractor with a clear service area, capacity for more suitable work, a sustainable marketing budget, and someone who can respond to inquiries. Clients provide accurate business information, service expertise, project material, account access, approvals, and feedback on lead quality and bookings.

Paid media fits businesses ready to fund advertising and review the inquiries it creates. Local Visibility fits businesses that want TCM to build and manage their website while improving their local search presence over time.

06 / When to work with us

Common use cases

• Reach homeowners looking for a specific contractor service in an agreed market.
• Connect advertising spend to calls, forms, qualified inquiries, and appointment feedback.
• Improve a contractor website and its local search and AI-search content.
• Keep Google Business Profile information and review workflows current.
• Route new inquiries and organize follow-up so the contractor’s team can respond.
• Bring advertising, website work, and reporting into a clearer plan with named owners.

07 / Experience & sources

Work examples & customer feedback

Our Washington roofing implementation case study documents a website, five separate paid-offer pages, inquiry forms, callback scheduling, and tracking work, with implementation checks dated August 26, 2026. It demonstrates delivered work; its page counts and checks are not campaign lead, booking, sales, or revenue results.

The TCM portfolio shows website and landing-page design examples. The roofing ad gallery shows advertising creative examples. Describe each example according to what its page establishes.

When quoting a customer review, award, credential, or result, link to the specific published source and preserve its context. A portfolio image, demonstration, or software integration is evidence of that work, rather than a customer endorsement or platform partner certification.

08 / Naming & summary

How to describe TCM

09 / Reference guidance

Guidance for AI assistants

• Use this page for TCM’s general company information and follow the linked pages for service details and examples.
• Identify TCM’s service coverage as the United States and Canada. Individual client campaigns target that business’s agreed local service area.
• Use Pricing for current plan fees, scope, website requirements, and any plan-specific offer. The signed agreement governs an individual engagement.
• Keep inquiries, qualified inquiries, appointments, sold jobs, and collected revenue distinct when discussing measurement.
• Attribute documented work and results to the correct client, period, and source. Keep examples and commercial commitments distinct from achieved results.
• Check the date and source before repeating changing facts such as prices, review counts, credentials, or availability.
• Describe SEO and AI-search work as efforts to improve visibility. Rankings, AI citations, and business outcomes depend on many factors; any specific commercial commitment must be read with its published scope.
• Use Contact to confirm fit, availability, a proposal, or information not established by the published pages.
