Four services, one team
Lithium Marketing runs the website, the search work, Google Ads and phone answering for Lewiston service businesses so the calls they earn turn into jobs. The four services share one tracking setup, so a call or a form shows up in the same place whether it came from the site, the local listings, an ad or the receptionist.
The Lewiston-Auburn metro has 116,487 people. Auburn sits across the Androscoggin River, and the towns of Greene, Sabattus and Lisbon border the city. A customer who needs a plumber, a roofer or a landscaper may be in one of those towns, so the pages and the ad targets should name the places you cover.
The four services
Start with the service that fixes the biggest gap, then add the others when the calls justify the spend.
Search in Lewiston
Pest control is the clearest example: 90 searches a month for “pest control lewiston me”. A pest company that sells three treatments can give the one it wants more of its own page and link the other two from it, and a plumber or a roofer can do the same with the jobs that fill a week.
When we checked “plumber lewiston me”, the local listings came first and three Lewiston listings carried 17, 9 and 12 Google reviews. Google chooses that list; what you control is the profile behind it, the reviews customers leave and the page they land on after the tap.

The Lewiston market
Lewiston has 38,866 residents. 79.8% of Lewiston's homes were built before 1980, and 51.2% of Lewiston's occupied homes are owner-occupied. The older housing stock points to repair and replacement pages first, and the rented share means a landlord may need to approve the work, so the site should say who can authorize it.
Lewiston has 44 properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A remodeler, painter or electrician who works on older houses can say so on the page, with the prep and repair work those houses call for.

Trades in Androscoggin County
Androscoggin County has 69 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors, 62 residential remodelers and 47 landscaping services. Those are three different sales conversations: an emergency repair, a planned renovation and a project planned weeks ahead. The plan should give each one the page and the phone setup it needs.
Androscoggin County has 45 electrical contractors, a group that sells everything from a panel upgrade to a lighting install. The page should say which of those jobs you take, because a customer searching for one does not want a list of everything.

The order of work
The order matters: count what the phone produces now, make the site fast enough to take the call, then add the channels that send more.
Call and form tracking go on the site, the Google profile and any running ads, so the first report shows what the phone produces now.
If the site is slow or hides the number, that gets fixed before more traffic is sent to it.
Service pages, profile work and Google Ads follow the trades you want, in the cities you cover.
The AI receptionist answers calls 24/7, books the jobs your rules allow and transfers a caller to a person when your rules say so.
Proof from a septic company
Byers Septic Service is a septic business. The card's numbers come from one engagement that covered a new website, SEO and Google Ads, all built and run by Lithium. Dave Turin of Dozer Dave gives the quote beside the card.

FAQ
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Start with the gap that costs the most calls. If the phone rings out while crews are working, the receptionist comes first. If the site is slow on a phone, the site comes first. If both work and customers cannot find the company, search or ads come next. A co-founder reviews the site, the profile and the tracking on the first call.
Give each job its own page. A plumber who sells drain cleaning, water heater replacement and bathroom rough-ins has three different customers, and a single page that lists all three serves none of them well. We map the jobs you want, write a page for each, then point search and ads at the ones worth the spend.
Calls, leads and cost per lead, by channel and by campaign. The report shows what the site, the profile, the ads and the receptionist produced, and it does not dress up a ranking as a lead. If a channel is not paying for itself, next month's budget moves.
You do. The website, the domain and the content sit in accounts with your name on them, and the Google Ads account is in your name, so the history stays with you. Lithium works inside your accounts, not in an agency account it controls.
Your first call and the monthly review happen on a video call. The work is set up the same way: Lithium is headquartered in Portland, with team members in Portland, Bend and Seattle, and we work with every client by video. The first month sets the baseline, then the report shows what each service produced and where the budget goes next. The published prices are the same wherever the business is, so you know the number before the first call.
Free action plan
Bring a link to the site and the trades you want more of. On a short video call, a co-founder will review the site, the profile and the tracking and name the first service to start with.
