How an LSA-first growth system actually gets installed.

Most agencies sell strategy. We install plumbing — for the funnel, not the building. Here's the exact sequence we run for a new account, what gets turned on first, what waits for Google's clock, and what your team will (and won't) have to do.

Google
A / Foundations

What a Local Service Ad actually is.

Three slots at the very top of Google. Above paid ads. Above the map pack. Above organic. You only pay when a real customer reaches out.

Top of Google

When someone searches "[your service] near me," Google puts three verified businesses at the very top. Above regular paid ads. Above the map. Above directory sites like Yelp. That block is Local Service Ads, and it's the highest-intent real estate on the page.

Pay per qualified lead

You only pay Google when a real customer calls or messages. Bots, tire-kickers, and wrong-intent searches cost you nothing. Add the Google Guaranteed badge and customers click your business first — every time.

A.1 / Smart websites + LSAs

How a smart website feeds your LSAs (and your Google score).

Most operators think of the website and the LSAs as two separate things. They're not. Google decides who gets the top three LSA slots based on signals your website is constantly sending — and a slow, generic site quietly tanks your ad performance.

Speed signals → ranking signals

Google measures Core Web Vitals (load speed, layout stability, time-to-interactive) on every page in your domain. A site that loads in 1.2 seconds outranks a site that loads in 4.8 seconds for the same query — and Google's LSA algorithm uses the same domain quality scores when deciding which three businesses to show. Slow site = lower LSA visibility, even if you're outbidding everyone.

Conversion signals → quality signals

When an LSA click hits your website and the visitor calls or fills a form, Google logs that as a conversion. The more conversions per click, the higher your LSA quality score, the lower your cost-per-lead, and the more impressions you get. We build every page on a conversion-first frame: clear hero CTA, sticky call button, social proof above the fold, mobile-thumb-friendly forms. Conversion rate goes up, LSA cost goes down.

Review signals → trust signals

Your Google Business Profile review count and average star rating are the single biggest LSA ranking factor besides bid. We embed live review schema markup on every site we build, push reviews to your Google Business Profile through smart-time review requests, and intercept negative ones before they hit your public listing. More reviews + higher average = top of the LSA stack.

Local SEO + LSAs together

Beyond the LSA block, the next thing on the page is the local map pack and organic results. Your website's structured data, local schema, NAP consistency, and city-level service pages decide whether you show up in those slots too. We build city + service-pair pages (e.g. "tankless water heater install · Tampa") that capture intent your LSAs miss, doubling the surface area of your Google presence.

The full funnel: search → booked

Customer searches "plumber near me" → sees your LSA at top with Google Guaranteed badge → clicks → lands on a fast, conversion-optimized page → taps the sticky call button or fills the form → request goes straight into the CRM → automation fires within 5 seconds → conversation continues by SMS until the job is on your calendar. Every step measured, every gap plugged. The website doesn't just exist next to the LSAs. It is the LSAs.

B / The install

What happens, in order.

A clean, sequenced rollout from the audit call to the first booked job. No handoffs, no waiting on a project manager — it just runs.

Day 0

Free 30-minute audit.

We pull your Google Business Profile, current ad spend, and 90 days of call data. We map every leak in dollars and hand you the leak report. Free even if you never hire us.

Day 1

Phone, calendar, and CRM connected.

We hook into your existing phone system and calendar. Nothing changes for your team — calls still ring the same lines. We just start capturing them.

Day 1–2

Missed-call text-back goes live.

The instant a call rolls to voicemail, an SMS lands in the caller's pocket. Your team takes the conversation from there. Most callers book before they dial the next business.

Day 2

Confirmation + reminder sequences turned on.

Every booked job gets confirmation, 24-hour reminder, and morning-of reminder. Customers who can't make it reschedule themselves before the truck rolls.

Day 3–5

Reactivation campaign queued.

We segment your dormant customer list by service history, last-job date, and ticket size. The first reactivation wave goes out by the end of the first week. Most accounts see book-backs inside 72 hours.

Day 5–7

Reputation engine on.

Smart-time review requests fire two hours after job completion. Negative responses get intercepted on a private feedback form before they hit Google. Review volume typically 3× inside 90 days.

Day 7–14

LSA verification submitted.

License, insurance, owner background check, business profile cleanup. Google's approval window is 5 to 14 days and we can't compress it — but we prepare every document so it clears on the first review.

Day 14–21

LSAs go live.

Bidding starts. We watch every lead inside 24 hours, dispute the bad ones, and tune bids by service and zip. Qualified-call cost typically 40–60% below your old Google Ads CPA by the end of week 3.

Day 30

First performance review.

You get a 1-page report: booked jobs, no-show rate, LSA cost-per-call, recovered revenue, and the projected next-90-day curve. Then we tune. Every week, every month, until you cancel.

C / Honest answers

What operators ask us.

The audit is free. If we can't show you at least $5,000/month in recoverable revenue on the call, we don't take you on. The audit alone is worth the time even if you never hire us.
Because humans book better. We've tested both. A real person on the phone closes meaningfully more bookings than any voice AI we've used. Your team stays on the line. We make sure they have more good calls coming in and a system that catches the ones they miss.
48 hours for the missed-call text-back, reminder automations, and reactivation campaigns. 2 to 3 weeks for the full setup including Local Service Ads (Google has an approval window we can't compress). No padding.
No. We run the system. You get a one-page dashboard so you can see what's happening if you want to, but your day-to-day doesn't change. You service the work. We service the funnel.
