Where to start

What one Tracy plan should cover

A Tracy service business that hires Lithium Marketing gets the website, the search work, the ads and the phone line from one team. Tracy's population grew 9.4% from 2020 to 2025, and the city has 30,228 housing units.

That growth changes the work. The Stockton-Lodi metro area holds 823,815 people, and Tracy keeps adding streets on its edge. A business that serves only the older part of town misses the customers there, so the plan starts with the trades you sell and the parts of Tracy you cover.

The Tracy market

Growth, owners and the housing Tracy has

Tracy's median home was built in 1995, and 65.0% of its occupied homes are owner-occupied. The median home value is $699,000, so the photos on the site have to show finished work on homes at that level, not a stock image.

Part of the city is new: 12.7% of its housing went up in 2010 or later. Newer houses need maintenance, upgrades and remodels, while older homes need repair and replacement work. A plan that speaks to both buyers needs a page for each kind of job, not one list of services.

Trades in San Joaquin County

Where the county's contractors cluster

San Joaquin County has 183 residential remodelers and 179 landscaping services. In a field that size, every competitor can list the same services, so the business that shows finished projects and recent reviews gives a homeowner a reason to pick it.

Every trade has its own searches to answer. Excavation, pest control, painting and roofing companies work across the county, and each can build a page for the jobs it wants and skip the general list.

How the work runs

How a Tracy program gets built

Tracking goes on before any budget moves, because every later choice depends on knowing which calls come from search.

1

Start with a call audit

Before anything changes, tracking goes on the site, the profile and the ads, and the first report shows which searches already produce calls.

2

Rebuild what loses the call

If the site is slow or the phone number is hard to find on a phone, that gets fixed before more money goes into traffic.

3

Put pages where the searches are

SEO covers the trades and the parts of Tracy you serve, while Google Ads buys the jobs the crews can take in the next few weeks.

4

Answer what the plan produces

The receptionist picks up every call the first three generate, books the visit and sends an urgent caller to a person.

FAQ

Questions Tracy owners ask about one agency

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What should a Tracy business fix first?

Start with the costliest gap. Calls that ring out after hours point to the AI receptionist, a slow site that hides the phone number points to a rebuild, and tracking that shows both are healthy points to search or ads. A co-founder reviews the tracking, site and profile on the first call and puts the fixes in order.

Can I hire Lithium for one service?

You can. Start with the website, the SEO, the ads or the receptionist, and add the next service once the calls justify it. All four services report into one call tracking setup, so the second purchase is judged on the calls it brings, not on a new set of numbers.

What am I signing when I hire Lithium?

The usual service agreement starts with six months, then continues month to month with 30 days' notice. Website builds, SEO and Google Ads follow that schedule, and the AI receptionist has no contract at all.

Who handles our account if we hire you?

Allison McKenney, your account manager, handles day-to-day questions, and a co-founder runs the strategy calls. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, and we work with every client by video.

Do you work with trades other than plumbing?

Lithium works with plumbers, HVAC companies, roofers, electricians, remodelers, landscapers, painters and restoration firms, and the same plan fits a one-truck shop or a company with several crews.
