Sound Familiar?

Every contractor we talk to says the same things.

These are real quotes from contractors who landed on Heist after firing their second agency of the year. If you nodded reading any of them, keep going.

I've spent $80K on marketing this year and I still don't know where any of my leads come from.

— Asphalt contractor, $1.2M

My phone rang 14 times last week and 12 of them were tire kickers.

— Remodeler, $1.8M

My last agency sent these reports full of charts. I'd ask them what it meant and they'd just send another chart.

— Painter, $900K

You're not the problem. The agency you hired is.

What makes Heist different

The old way isn't working. We built the opposite.

Twelve specific things that change when you stop hiring marketing tourists and start working with a real partner.

The Old Way
The Heist Way
12–24 month lock-in contracts
Month-to-month with 30-day notice — no long-term lock-in
Hosting hostage (site lives on their server)
Site lives on your hosting from day one
Take your website when you leave
Website code + files in your name, always
Take your CRM data when you leave
CRM built inside your account
GBP set up in their name
GBP in your name, we manage with your permission
Hidden cancellation fees + fine print surprises
Transparent cancellation policy in our Terms — no surprises
Owners hide behind account managers
Craig is your account manager — by choice. Direct call, text, email, same day, same number. He loves it.
Quarterly "business reviews" that turn into upsell meetings
Monthly Momentum Meetings — real numbers, real progress, real work shown
Reports that hide what's actually happening
Numbers that defend themselves
White-label opacity (you don't know who's doing the work)
Everything in-house. We practice what we preach — control, transparency, speed.
Bait-and-switch pricing
You get what you pay for — and usually more
Marketing only — won't touch your sales, ops, or growth strategy
We work in marketing, sales, ops, and growth coaching. Marketing is the entry point, not the whole job.

Built for contractors. Only contractors.

What works for a painter doesn't work for an HVAC company.

We've spent years figuring out what actually makes the phone ring for home service contractors. It looks different depending on the trade. Here's who we know how to help.

01

Paving & Asphalt

Multi-city service area mastery, GBP that ranks across every city you serve, and the residential-to-commercial growth path mapped out.

02

Landscaping & Hardscaping

Visual-heavy SEO, design-build positioning, and the playbook to step up from residential maintenance into commercial projects.

03

Remodelers

Kitchen, bath, and full-home positioning. Before/after galleries that actually convert. Premium pricing without apology.

04

Painters

Interior, exterior, cabinet, HOA workflows. The 40-page-minimum SEO build that makes Google take you seriously.

The Stack

Three systems. One goal: your phone ringing with the right jobs.

01

Own a website that ranks

Most contractor sites are 8 pages and wonder why Google ignores them. We build 40+ page sites with the SEO baked in from day one. Schema, meta, speed, local content — done right the first time.

02

Dominate the local pack

Google Business Profile optimization. Citations cleaned and built in the right order. Reviews automated at the moment a job finishes. The full local SEO framework — done for you.

03

Book more of the right jobs

CRM set up right. Automations that don't break. Lead scoring so your team chases the $20K job first. Follow-up sequences that make sure no lead slips past day three.

Who Heist works for

We're vitamins for healthy businesses — not a defibrillator for dying ones.

To grow a healthy business, you have to have a healthy business. Just because one part isn't working doesn't mean it's unhealthy everywhere else.

Vitamins and good sleep can change your life — even though the rest of your body is healthy. That's what we are. We sharpen what's already working. We don't resurrect what isn't.

You're a fit if you have

✓ A full-time estimator / bids person

✓ Someone who can intake new leads at volume

✓ At least $250K in annual revenue

✓ A genuine want to scale — not just survive

Plant your flag.
Own your backyard.

The Secret Weapon

Meet Sammy. The AI exec assistant who never sleeps and never misses a task.

Sammy — the Heist Marketing AI exec assistant

Sammy is the layer that makes Heist faster than any agency you've worked with. He drafts your follow-up sequences, watches your inbox for the $20K leads, flags anything that looks off, and keeps every Momentum Meeting moving with real data — not vibes.

He's not a chatbot. He's not a popup. He lives inside the back office of every Heist build and quietly takes the busywork off your plate so Craig and the team can spend their time on the work that actually grows your business.

Sammy's three rules: Never lose data. Never send a client-facing error. Never waste time spinning wheels.
