Where to start
A customer in Savannah who finds your business online should reach someone who can book the work, and that is the chain Lithium Marketing builds: the website, the search pages, the Google Ads and the phone line. More than 100 distinct neighborhoods sit inside six principal areas of the city, from Downtown and Midtown out to the Southside and the Westside, and one service-area page cannot speak to all of them.
Savannah is the county seat of Chatham County, and the city limits cover only part of the ground a trade business works. The metro area around Savannah holds 438,314 people, so a plan that stops at the city line leaves customers out.
The four services
Each service stands on its own, so you can start with one and keep the others in reserve until your call numbers ask for them.
What customers type
The phrases that bring a Savannah service business a job name the work: a water heater that quit, a roof with a leak, a yard gone to weeds. Agency shopping is a smaller pool, and it can dry up in a slow month, which is why the plan starts from the work you want, not from the label you carry.
When we looked at the results page for “plumber savannah”, the Map Pack came before every organic result, and Angi, Yelp, Thumbtack and Reddit all sat in the top ten. A customer can meet a forum thread or a directory page before meeting your site, so the first task is making your name, your phone number and your services agree everywhere they appear.

The market
The city covers 109 square miles, and Chatham County holds 311,855 people. A business that treats the whole county as one market ends up with a single page written for nobody in particular, so the plan gives the biggest places their own page and leaves the rest to a service-area page.
Owners occupy 45.4% of Savannah's occupied homes, and Chatham County runs at 56.8%. Inside the city a larger share of homes is rented, so property managers and tenants deserve pages and call scripts of their own.

The trades
Chatham County lists 93 residential remodelers, 92 landscaping companies and 85 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors. In a field that crowded, a customer is often choosing between names that sound alike, so the differentiator is a finished job with a photo and a review, not the sign on the truck.
The county lists 26 pest control companies. A firm in a smaller field can cover every treatment it sells with its own page, which a general home-services page cannot.

The order of work
We start where the loss is easiest to see, then add the next service once the numbers justify it.
Tracking goes on the site, the profile and any live ads, so the first month shows which searches already produce Savannah work.
A slow template or a form that fails on a phone gets fixed before anything else is added, since every service sends people there.
Service pages for the jobs you want, area pages for the parts of the county you cover, and a paid campaign for whatever needs booking sooner.
The AI receptionist takes the calls the pages and the ads generate, and the automation handles the follow-up text and the review request.
A client example
Byers Septic Service is a septic company that hired Lithium for a new website, SEO and Google Ads. Dave Turin, who runs the excavation business Dozer Dave, adds his recommendation of co-founder DJ Van Zanten beside the card.

Pricing
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.

$1,300–$3,000

Typical local SEO retainer, scoped against your revenue per lead.
From $500

Scoped
after discovery
Clear, upfront pricing after a free discovery call. Custom builds typically take 1–2 weeks.
Optional hosting and maintenance: $99/month. Secure private hosting on a dedicated high-speed server, daily backups, software and security updates, and basic website changes are all included. Most clients choose this option to keep their new website updated and running smoothly; it is not required.
Our usual service agreement starts with six months, then continues month to month with 30 days’ cancellation notice. Your written agreement sets the final terms. The AI receptionist has no contract.
FAQ
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Put the money where the leak is biggest. If calls ring out unanswered, the phone line comes first; if the site is slow on a phone, the site comes first. Tracking goes in before either, so the answer comes from your own numbers, not from a guess.
You can. Whatever you add runs through the same tracking as the first service, so the calls stay in one report and one place to compare them. A co-founder will show you what the addition does to the monthly total before you commit.
Because the build depends on the systems it has to reach. Custom automation is scoped after a free discovery call, once we know what it connects to and what it has to do. The other services have published prices you can read before you call.
Every service reports into the same call tracking. A call from an ad, a call from the Google profile and a call from an organic page land in one place, each tagged with the search behind it. That lets you compare what each service brings without stitching three dashboards together.
Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, and works with every client by video. That changes nothing about the work: strategy calls go to a co-founder, an account manager handles the day to day, and the reports are the same ones every client gets.
Free action plan
Your site, your service list and the parts of Chatham County you cover are enough to start. A co-founder will read them before a short video call and come back with the first service to fix.
