One plan, four services
What one Simi Valley plan covers
A Simi Valley service business often buys the website, the search work, the ads and the phone answering from different people, and each one reports a different number. Lithium Marketing puts all four on one plan so the calls that come in can be counted in one place. Ventura County has 22,992 business establishments, and the trades among them compete for the same local searches.
The county’s trade mix shows where that competition is thick: 425 residential remodelers and 335 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors work in Ventura County. A business that sells more than one of those services needs a page and a phone script for each, or one general page has to carry them all.
What can go on the plan
Choose the first service, then add what the calls support
Every service reports into the same call tracking, so a second one can be added later without changing how the first is measured. Each card opens the Simi Valley page for that service.

One search, four services
How the four services meet the same search
Every service in the plan points at the same searches. When we checked “plumber simi valley”, Google put the Map Pack first and showed no ads, which tells a service business where the attention sits: the profile and the reviews before the website. A hub plan puts SEO on the profile work, web design on the page the listing links to, Google Ads on the searches that need a call this week, and the receptionist on the calls all three produce.
“plumber simi valley” draws 880 searches a month, and those searches split by job: a drain clearing, a repipe, a water heater. A plan that treats them as one service leaves the owner buying ads for work the crew does not want and writing one page for three different customers.

The Oxnard-Thousand Oaks-Ventura metro area holds 830,851 people, and Simi Valley sits inside it. Simi Valley is part of the Greater Los Angeles Area, and Simi Valley’s median household income is $122,081; the city holds 3,005 people per square mile.

The county’s trade mix
Where Simi Valley’s trades sit in Ventura County
Ventura County lists 309 landscaping services, a trade that sells design, installation and maintenance as separate jobs and needs a page for each.
A business that sells two of these trades should not send both to one page. The website gets a page per service, Google Ads gets a campaign per job type, and the receptionist gets a rule for which calls need a person now.

The order we recommend
Which part of the plan goes first
The first month is for measuring and fixing the page that takes the call; the other work follows the numbers.
1
Put a number on today’s calls
We add call and form tracking to the site and any running ads, and count the calls the Google profile sends, so the first report shows which Simi Valley jobs came from where.
2
Repair or rebuild the landing page
If the site is slow or awkward on a phone, it gets fixed or rebuilt before more traffic is sent to it.
3
Give each trade its own path
The trade with the clearest demand gets its pages and Google profile work first, and the next trade follows when the calls support it.
4
Answer what arrives
The AI receptionist takes the calls the plan produces, and custom automation, scoped on its own, handles the follow-up work.

FAQ
Simi Valley marketing questions from owners
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
What should we fix first?
Start with the part that feels broken, then test it against the numbers: how many calls rang out last month, how many forms arrived, how many became booked jobs. A co-founder reviews those with you on the first call and names the one service to start with.
Can we start with one service and add others later?
One service is a fine place to begin. A website, SEO, Google Ads or the phone line can run on its own, and the others can be added once the first one has produced enough calls to justify the next invoice. All of them report into one tracking setup, so the measurement does not change.
Who runs the strategy calls?
A co-founder runs them. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, working with every client by video. Allison McKenney handles the day-to-day questions.
Is each service priced on its own?
Each service carries its own price and scope. SEO is a monthly retainer sized to the market, Google Ads adds a management fee on top of the ad budget, a website is quoted as a project, and custom AI automation is scoped after a free discovery call. Nothing is bundled into one number you cannot see.
Can one plan cover a business with several trades?
One plan can carry several trades. Each trade gets its own website page and ad campaign, and the receptionist takes a different set of calls for a repair than for a remodel. The county trade mix is wide, and a plan can hold more than one trade without blurring the offer.
