Start here
Lithium Marketing runs the website, the SEO, the Google Ads account and the AI receptionist for Metairie service businesses, and plans them in the order that produces calls. Metairie is an unincorporated community in Jefferson Parish inside the New Orleans-Metairie metro area of 970,849 people, so the plan covers the cities your crews reach, not only this community.
The order matters more than the list. If the phone number is buried, the search work behind the site has nowhere to send the call; if the ad lands on a page that does not answer the question, the click is gone. We start with the step the call report can show, then add the next service when the numbers support the cost.
The four services
Each card below opens that service’s Metairie page, so you can read the numbers for one before you commit to it.
Search in Metairie
The click prices in this market separate the trades: $31.96 for “plumber metairie”, $5.81 for “roofing company metairie” and $6.89 for “landscaping metairie”. Where a click costs more, the first spend belongs in pages and the profile; where it costs less, a small ad test can answer a question quickly.
That spread is why the plan starts with your numbers, not with a package. A plumber with a slow site needs the site and the profile before more traffic; a landscaper whose site is sound can test Google Ads on a modest budget. The first call decides which of the four services to start with.

The Metairie market
In Metairie, 62.1% of the occupied homes are owner-occupied. A marketing plan for that kind of market should speak to the person who signs the check, with copy that answers what a visit includes, what it costs and how soon a crew can start.
The median home in Metairie was built in 1972, and 68.8% of Metairie’s housing was built before 1980, so most jobs are on established houses. That is why the plan starts with the site and the profile: the searches for those jobs are already happening, and the business needs a page and a phone line ready to catch them.

Trades in Jefferson Parish
The trade base sits in Jefferson Parish: 159 residential remodelers, 240 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors and 137 electrical contractors. With that many names to compare, a customer needs the job and the finished work on the page, not a list of everything the company has ever done.
Landscaping is the same idea with different jobs: maintenance, beds and installs each need a page that names the work. A page written for the job the owner wants more of does more than a page titled after the whole company.

The order of work
A report you trust comes before a campaign you pay for.
We add call and form tracking to the site, the Google Business Profile and any ads already running, so the first report can count calls and leads before more money goes out.
If the site is slow on a phone or the number is hard to find, that gets fixed before more traffic is bought.
Service pages come next, written for the searches that name Metairie and the nearby cities your crews cover.
Google Ads covers the jobs you need sooner, and the AI receptionist answers the calls the other work produces, including the ones that arrive after hours.
Proof
Marc Rickabaugh of Rickabaugh Construction, quoted beside the card, hired Lithium for a website and SEO. The card itself covers another project: the garden center Drake’s 7 Dees, which took a new website, SEO and Google Ads from Lithium.

“We used the team at Lithium Marketing to update our website and increase our SEO. We couldn't have been happier with the results! We receive compliments about our updated website on a regular basis!”
Marc RickabaughRickabaugh ConstructionAround Metairie
Metairie is bordered by New Orleans to the east, Kenner to the west, Lake Pontchartrain to the north, so the nearest customers often cross a boundary without noticing. New Orleans, Kenner and Baton Rouge each have their own marketing page, and the Mississippi cities and the rest of Louisiana sit in the same list.

FAQ
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
It depends on where the path from search to phone is weakest. If the phone rings out, the receptionist comes first. If the site loads slowly or hides the number, the site comes first. If both work and the phone is quiet, SEO or Google Ads comes first. The tracking tells us which.
A business can hire one service, such as a website or Google Ads, and add the rest when the report supports it. The tracking set up at the start follows the later work, so a second service is measured like the first.
A co-founder runs every strategy call. Allison McKenney is the account manager for day-to-day questions, and she answers them by email or phone. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, with team members in Portland, Bend and Seattle, and we work with every client by video.
Send access to the website, the Google Business Profile and any ad account, plus a list of the services and cities you sell. One call with the person who runs the crews is enough to start. We write the plan from those, and you review it before any work starts.
The report shows it, and we say so. A service that adds no calls gets changed or dropped at the next review, because the point of the plan is the calls it produces. The tracking makes that judgment possible without guessing.
Free action plan
A free plan starts with your current site, the services you want more of and the cities your crews reach. On a short video call, a co-founder will put the four services in an order that fits.
