For Irish trades & local services

More of the right jobs, in the right places.

When somebody near you needs your trade, they take out their phone and search. They ring whoever comes up first. We work out how you show up on Google in the areas you cover — and we fix it.

The check costs nothing and there's nothing to sign. You get the research first — where you stand, what's missing — then you decide.

        An example dashboard with sample searches — yours is built from your own trade and areas. Most jobs run about a fortnight; longer if you want a website with it. The days show the shape of a job, not a promise.

        02 Free visibility check

        Find out where you actually stand. Free.

        A few things about your business — including the work you actually want more of. I go and look at how you come up in the areas you cover, then send you the breakdown on WhatsApp — in plain English, no report full of jargon.

        Five things, then it lands in my WhatsApp. No card, no contract, no salesman ringing you.

        I do the research myself and come back on WhatsApp, usually the same day. If there's nothing worth fixing, I'll tell you that too.

        03 The job

        One job, done properly. Then it's yours.

        This isn't a monthly thing you can't get out of. It's a piece of work: figure out how you show up on Google, fix it, hand it over.

        1. 01

          Your Google profile, fixed and set up right

          The listing people see before they ever see your van: right categories, the services you actually do, the areas you actually cover, photos, hours, the lot — filled in the way it's meant to be instead of half done.

        2. 02

          Your services described in the words people search

          This is most of the job. We find what your customers actually type when they need your trade, then write your services and descriptions around those words — so you turn up for the work you want, instead of for how you’d describe it yourself.

        3. 03

          A page for each area you cover

          Most trades have one page that says "we cover Dublin". That's why they come up for nothing. You get a proper page per town you work in, so you turn up where the job is.

        4. 04

          Reviews coming in without you chasing

          The one with reviews gets picked. We set up a simple way to ask, so happy customers leave one while the job's still fresh in their head.

        5. 05

          A simple handover

          We show you what changed and why, in the language you'd use yourself. Then it's yours — logins, pages, the lot. No retainer, nothing to cancel.

        Step two

        The job

        If it's worth doing, I tell you what I'd fix, what it costs and how long it takes — one price, agreed before anything starts. Then we do it.

        A plumber in Sligo, first on Google. Here's the search.

        This is the bit we're proud of, so we'd rather show you the search and the screenshot than a wall of logos.

        We won't promise you the same. Nobody honest can.

        More names will go up here as the jobs finish and the lads are happy for us to use them. We'd sooner have one you can go and check than five you can't.

        What we will do is look at your own situation first, for nothing, and tell you straight whether there's a job there worth paying for.

        No guarantees, no "number one or your money back", no talk of algorithms. Just the work, and what it changed.

        06 Straight answers

        The things you'd ask if we were stood at the van.

        How do I get my business to come up on Google in my town?

        Three things do most of the work: a Google Business Profile that's filled in properly with the right categories and services, those services written in the words people actually type, and a page for each town you cover. That's the job we do. Whether you call it SEO or not, there's no monthly retainer and no jargon in the handover.

        What does it cost?

        Depends what's already there, which is exactly why the check comes first and costs nothing. Once I've looked, you get one price for one job, agreed before anything starts. Nothing to pay before that.

        How long does it take?

        It's a job, not a subscription — so it has a start and a finish. Most run about a fortnight. If you want a website built with it, longer. I'll tell you the timeframe along with the price, once I've seen what needs doing.

        Will you promise me first place?

        No. Anyone who does is guessing. I'll tell you what's fixable, what isn't, and what I'd do first — then you can judge it yourself.

        I don't have a website. Am I wasting your time?

        Not at all. Plenty of trades get found without one — your profile and your area pages do most of the work. If a site would help, I'll say so, and if it wouldn't, I'll say that instead.

        What happens when the job's finished?

        It's handed over and it's yours — logins, pages, everything. No monthly obligation, nothing to cancel. Come back when you want something else done and it's a new job.

        Who do you work with?

        Irish trades and local service businesses — the kind of work where the customer is nearby and rings the first name they see. If you're not that, I'll tell you and we'll leave it.

        Do I have to talk to a salesman?

        You're talking to me, on WhatsApp, and the first thing you get is research rather than a pitch. If the answer is no, that's a fine answer.
