Choose what to grow
Marketing for the St. Petersburg jobs you want next
Lithium Marketing plans and manages websites, SEO, paid ads and AI phone answering for St. Petersburg service businesses. With 481 residential remodelers in Pinellas County, a remodeling company needs to give buyers a reason to request its estimate. The same question applies across the trades: which jobs do you want, and why should someone hire you?
Start with your schedule and the work that pays well after labor and materials. If those services barely appear on your website, fix that before promoting them. If the pages already explain them well, we can concentrate on SEO, Google Ads or answering the calls you receive. You get a recommendation tied to your business, with a price for the work proposed.

Sell the service behind the search term
The search “plumber st petersburg” records about 1,900 searches a month. A plumbing company seeking more installation work should explain those installations as carefully as its repair service. We match the pages and campaigns to the jobs you want, then review the requests they bring.
Pest control has its own search demand: about 590 monthly searches for “pest control st petersburg”. If you sell both initial treatments and ongoing service, customers need to understand the first visit before they commit to anything longer. Your ads, website and phone answers should describe the same offer.

Who you serve
Plan around the property and the hiring decision
In St. Petersburg, owners occupy 62.8% of occupied homes. If you also work with landlords or property managers, explain how they request service and arrange access. We can give that work space on the site and make sure the person answering the phone knows what information to collect.
St. Petersburg sits on the Pinellas peninsula between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. A broad regional campaign can reach places you do not take jobs. Give us your service-area list so the website, ad targeting and receptionist all use the same coverage.

Win the work you can show
Specific projects make a stronger sales pitch
Landscaping services account for 475 establishments in Pinellas County. If that is your trade, a customer needs more than a general promise of a beautiful yard. Show work you have completed, describe the maintenance or installation offered and put an estimate request beside it.
When your company promotes a specialty, its service explanation belongs in the searches and ads for that work. Tell customers what an estimate includes and which details you need before arranging it. A customer who understands the offer gives your team a better starting point for the call.

From priorities to work
Decide what deserves your next marketing dollar
A full program is an option, but the starting point comes from the work your business needs.
1
Name the jobs worth pursuing
We discuss your margins, capacity and service area. That gives us a reason to promote one service before another.
2
Examine how buyers reach you
We inspect your site and search presence, plus any running campaigns. Call and form tracking help show where recorded leads originate.
3
Propose the work in order
You get a scope for the recommended services, with costs and responsibilities. Website changes, search campaigns and reception each have a defined purpose.
4
Use booking feedback to choose what follows
You tell us which leads became jobs and which missed the mark. We use that feedback with campaign and website reporting to decide what to improve or expand.
A service business example
Dixie Glass invested across its website and search marketing
On the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Dixie Glass hired Lithium for website design, SEO and Google Ads. Its case shows the results of that broader program. The accompanying recommendation comes from Marc Rickabaugh at Rickabaugh Construction, who describes the website and SEO work for his own business.
Glass“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!”

FAQ
Sorting out your St. Petersburg marketing investment
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Can I hire you to improve only part of our marketing?
You can start with a single service. We look at what you already have and recommend work that addresses the next obstacle to booking jobs. A functioning website may need better search visibility; a busy phone may need reception. You do not need to replace the whole program to make progress.
How do you decide what our business should spend?
The proposed work determines the fee, and the revenue you keep from a typical job helps set a sensible budget. More services or cities can mean more content and campaign work. Google Ads pricing also depends on ad spend, channels and landing pages. Custom automation gets a separate quote after discovery.
Who will I work with during the project?
A co-founder leads the strategy call, and Allison McKenney handles day-to-day questions as your account manager. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, working with every client by video. You review priorities and progress without leaving your business.
What commitment comes with a marketing program?
The usual agreement begins with six months of service, followed by monthly renewal with 30 days' notice. That gives ongoing work time to develop. The AI receptionist has no contract and can be canceled anytime; custom automation is separately scoped. We confirm the terms for the services you choose before starting.
What should I bring if I have never hired an agency?
Bring your website address, service list and an idea of the jobs you would like more of. Tell us where you work and how customers currently reach you. Existing ad reports help if you have them, but you do not need to prepare a marketing presentation.
Free action plan
Put your St. Petersburg growth priorities into a free plan
Bring the job list you want to grow and tell us what your schedule can handle. The free plan begins with a short video call: a co-founder examines your marketing and recommends where the next investment belongs.
