Electrical

Example business: an 11-electrician contracting business based in Adelaide, serving the wider Adelaide area and focused on switchboard upgrades and EV charger installation. Businesses like this often get many enquiries through hipages and similar paid platforms, where the same lead often goes to three or four competitors. The goal was more exclusive calls and enquiries, a lower cost per booked job and a pipeline the owner controls.

The challenge

Where a business like this gets stuck

Small callout jobs fill the diary but rarely pay well, while switchboard upgrades, rewires and EV chargers go to better-marketed firms.
Commercial and residential work need completely different marketing, but most electricians run one generic website for both.
Many electrical businesses rely on referrals, which makes growth unpredictable from month to month.
Peak season (demand is fairly steady, with spikes around storms, summer air-conditioning installs and end-of-financial-year commercial work) was not being planned for, so budget ran out when demand was highest.

The approach

Two services, one goal

This example focuses on Business Listings & Citations and Local SEO & Google Maps, two channels that can suit electrical contracting businesses in Adelaide. Every call, form and chat is tracked to a booked outcome from week one, so decisions are based on revenue, not clicks.
