Make your next marketing dollar count

Plano marketing starts with the work you want

For a Plano service business, Lithium Marketing connects the website, search campaigns and phone answering to the jobs you want more of. Residential remodelers account for 295 establishments in Collin County. If you sell projects in that field, showing a homeowner why to request your estimate deserves as much attention as getting another website visit.

A repair company may need a faster way to turn searches into calls; a landscaper may need better pages for installation work. We choose the work around that difference. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, working with every client by video.

Who can hire your team

Explain property work to the person arranging it

Homeowners occupy 56.9% of occupied housing in Plano. If you also work for rental owners or property managers, give them clear instructions for requesting service, including who should discuss access and authorize the job. Carry that explanation through your website and phone answers.

Plano extends into Denton County as well as Collin County. Plan your coverage around the cities and addresses your crews serve. A county-wide campaign can reach beyond your working area, while a Collin-only plan can leave out part of Plano.

Stand out through your work

Give buyers more than a trade label

Electrical contractors have 205 establishments in Collin County. If your electrical offer includes both repairs and larger upgrades, photographs and descriptions should help a buyer tell them apart. We use that distinction when deciding which pages to write and which jobs to advertise.

Roofing contractors number 133 in Collin County. For a roofer, the estimate process and examples of completed work belong near the call button. The same principle applies across trades: show the customer what hiring you involves before asking for the call.

A spending decision you can explain

Choose the next move for your Plano business

Start with where customers are getting stuck, then give the proposed work a budget and a way to judge it.

1

Find the missed opportunity

We review your website, search visibility and existing lead reports with you. You tell us which jobs you want and where the schedule has room.

2

Choose the first investment

We recommend the site, SEO, advertising or phone work that addresses that gap. Each service has a defined scope, so you can decide what to fund.

3

Make the offer consistent

Your advertised service, website explanation and phone answers should describe the same job and coverage. We correct mismatches as part of the agreed work.

4

Compare leads with booked work

Reporting shows calls and leads; your booking feedback tells us which became jobs. That gives the next budget decision a business reason.

A service business marketing example

F&W Fence built its marketing across several services

For F&W Fence Co., Lithium delivered a website, SEO and Google Ads. Its case study follows search visibility and conversions across that work. The accompanying words are from garden center owner Drake Snodgrass of Drake’s 7 Dees, describing his experience with search marketing and a website redesign.

Decide how far to market

Compare Plano with the other places on your job list

Use the Allen or Richardson marketing pages when those cities are part of your schedule. Frisco, Carrollton, McKinney and Garland have their own pages too; the Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas links widen the view for a business planning beyond Plano.

Pricing

Build a budget from the services you choose

Lithium publishes a typical price for four of its five services, and AI automation is quoted after a free discovery call. Your proposal depends on scope, competition and ad spend.

FAQ

Decisions to make before hiring a marketing agency

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

Can you help me choose between SEO and ads for Plano?

We compare the speed you need, your existing search visibility and the cost of reaching buyers for your services. Ads can test an offer while SEO improves your longer-term presence. If the site makes it hard to request work, that problem belongs in the plan too. You get a recommendation tied to your budget and available crew time.

What should a smaller service company spend on marketing?

Start with a budget your booked work can support. We ask what a typical completed job brings in, what it costs you to do that job and how many leads become customers. Those answers help set a sensible spending limit. A small team can begin with a single service; a larger package needs a reason.

Will I be tied to a long marketing agreement?

The usual commitment is six months, followed by monthly renewal with 30 days’ notice. That gives the agreed work time to run and be reviewed. The AI receptionist has no contract. We spell out the terms for the services you choose before you approve the proposal.

Can I keep my existing website and hire you for another service?

A working website can stay in place while we handle another service. We check its speed, service information and contact forms before sending more visitors to it. If a landing page or repair is needed, we explain the work and cost so you can decide without buying a full rebuild.

Who helps when I need to change my marketing priorities?

A co-founder helps you make strategy decisions, and Allison McKenney is your account manager for day-to-day questions. Tell us when your service area, staffing or preferred jobs change. We can then review the affected pages, campaigns and phone information with you, using your lead reports to guide the next steps.
