The goal was more exclusive calls and enquiries, a lower cost per booked job and a pipeline the owner controls.

The challenge

Where the business was 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 steady) was not being planned for, so budget ran out when demand was highest.

The approach

Three services, one goal

We focused on Business Listings & Citations, AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) and Local SEO & Google Maps, the three channels with the best cost per booked job for electrical contracting businesses in Jurong. Every call, form and chat was tracked to a booked outcome from week one, so every decision was based on revenue, not clicks.
