How the four services fit
What an Olathe marketing plan should cover
Johnson County has 18,999 business establishments, and the home service companies among them are competing for the same search-and-call. Lithium Marketing builds the four pieces that decide which name gets that call in Olathe: a website you own, local SEO, Google Ads and an AI receptionist, each with a published price.
Olathe sits inside the Kansas City, MO-KS metro area, which holds 2,270,682 people. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, working with every client by video. The four services get arranged around your trade, your busiest months and the cities you serve, because the work that wins a plumbing call is not the work that wins a remodel.
The four services in Olathe
How each service earns its place in your plan
Start where the gap costs you the most: a site that loses phone visitors, a profile that never shows, ads without tracking or a phone nobody answers.

Search demand in Olathe
The searches that bring an Olathe business a customer
About 10 searches a month name “marketing agency olathe”. The demand sits in the trades: “plumber olathe” draws 590 searches a month and “pest control olathe” draws 320. Your marketing has to meet those searches on service pages, a Google Business Profile and, where the field is crowded, paid ads.
That split changes the order of work. A page for each service you sell gives Google something to rank. The profile fills in the services and areas a map search asks about. A campaign buys the calls you need before the pages climb. None of the three carries the plan alone, which is why the first month starts with the service you most want to sell.

The Johnson County market
What the county’s housing says about your pages
Johnson County’s median home was built in 1989, and 36.1% of its homes went up before 1980. If your trade works on older houses, lead the site with repair and replacement projects, since that is the work a buyer in an older house is weighing.
Olathe is the county seat of Johnson County, and your service area can reach well past the city limits. A service page that names the cities you cover, from Overland Park to the Missouri line, answers a customer’s first question: whether the crew will come out.

Trades in Johnson County
Where the county’s trade groups stand
The Johnson County chart starts with 315 residential remodelers and includes 181 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors. When a homeowner is comparing that many companies, the service list stops separating anyone; the photos of finished work, the reviews and a page for one job type do the separating.
At the other end of the Johnson County chart sit 60 roofing contractors and 44 pest control companies. Both sell work that customers search for by service and city, so a page per repair for a roofer or a page per treatment for a pest firm gives Google an exact match, not a general one.

The order of work
How the work gets sequenced for an Olathe business
Agree the job to win first, prove it on the page, put the business where the search happens and count the calls that follow.
1
Pick the job you want next month
Choose one service, one city and one customer type to aim at, so the first month has a target you can measure, not four half-plans.
2
Show the work that wins that job
Photos, reviews and answers to the questions a buyer asks before calling, all built around the job you picked.
3
Put the business where the search happens
Google Business Profile, service pages and, if the trade is competitive, Google Ads, arranged so the same job shows up in each.
4
Count the calls, then move the budget
Call tracking ties every job to its source, and next month’s spend follows what booked work.
Proof from a service business
What combined website, SEO and ads work produced for a plumber
Sarkinen Plumbing is a Portland-area plumber, and the website, SEO and Google Ads on the card all came from Lithium; the result reflects that combined work. Dozer Dave’s Dave Turin, an excavation contractor, recommends DJ Van Zanten, Lithium’s co-founder, in the quote beside it.

Dave TurinDozer DaveAround Olathe
Marketing past the Olathe city limits
If your crews cross into Overland Park, Kansas City or Topeka, or over the state line into Missouri, each city has its own marketing page with local search figures, including Kansas City, Lee’s Summit and Independence on the Missouri side. Name the state in your ad targets there, because a customer in Kansas City, Missouri is shopping a different market from one in Kansas City, Kansas. Every other Kansas city Lithium works in appears on the state page.

FAQ
Questions Olathe owners ask about a full plan
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Do we pay for all four services from day one?
You pay only for the ones you choose. There is no bundle and no all-four commitment: the website, the SEO retainer, the Google Ads account and the AI receptionist each have a published price listed above, and custom AI automation is quoted after a free discovery call.
Can we keep our current site and add the other services?
Often, if it loads fast on a phone and can take call tracking. We check the speed, the forms and the service pages first, then either fix what is there or quote a build. Knowing which one you need matters before the other services start sending traffic to it.
Who owns the website and the ad account?
You do. The domain, the hosting, the WordPress install and the content sit in accounts with your name on them, and the Google Ads account stays yours too. Access goes to you from the start, so nothing is held back if you ever change agencies.
How long before the plan shows results?
It depends on the service you start with. A website usually runs six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch, Google Ads usually shows its first results inside the first week, and SEO takes longer: technical fixes typically move within 30 days, with local rankings at 60 to 90 days. The report counts calls and leads from the first month, whichever service leads.
What do you need from us to start?
A short call about the jobs you want, the cities you cover and the months that matter most, plus access to your site, Google Business Profile and any ad account. A co-founder goes through it with you on video and writes the first plan: what to fix, what to build and what to leave alone.
