The challenge

Great work. Nobody could find it.

Like most of the contractors we work with, Empire Home Solutions had the reputation, the crews, and the craftsmanship. What they didn't have was a system turning that into online visibility and booked jobs.

🚧

Where they started

  • Limited search visibility; local homeowners couldn't find them
  • No paid strategy to compete for high-intent traffic
  • Missing leads and opportunities across the Cincinnati market
  • Needed a pipeline that filled during peak season
What we did

What happened. Since February 2025, daily organic impressions grew from under 200 to 500+, totaling over 65,000 impressions and 472 organic clicks in twelve months — more than 2.5× visibility.
