Trades and home services marketing

Stop losing jobs to the next bloke.

You are on the tools, so the phone rings out and the customer calls someone else. We bring in high-intent local enquiries and make sure every single one gets answered, even after hours.

The missed call is the real leak, not the lead

For most trades the problem is not getting found. It is the ninety seconds after. A homeowner with a burst pipe taps the first number, and if it rings out they tap the next one. The job is gone while you are under a house or up a roof. We bring in the enquiries and make sure not one slips through while you work.

The channel mix that suits trades

The channel mix that suits trades

We build Google Ads around high-intent searches like emergency, same day and near me, tied to your Primary Service Area. Where you qualify, Local Services Ads and the Google Verified badge sit at the top and charge per lead. Local SEO and suburb pages compound underneath.

  • High-intent and emergency search by suburb
  • Local Services Ads and the Google Verified badge
  • Google Business Profile and suburb pages for the map pack

Every call and message answered, instantly

This is where being a software company changes things. ConversAI is our own product, not a tool we resell. The AI voice agent picks up when you cannot, after hours and on the tools. It answers the common questions, qualifies the job, captures the details and books it into your diary. Live chat does the same on your site.

  • AI voice agents answer when you cannot
  • Live chat qualifies web enquiries on the spot
  • Missed calls become booked jobs, not lost ones
Watched constantly, not glanced at monthly

Watched constantly, not glanced at monthly

We are AI-first, which for us is not a slogan. Our AI agents run against the Google Ads API to audit your account every night, and a human reviews and ships the changes. Budget moves toward the hours and seasons that convert, so air conditioning in summer and heating in the cold are caught as demand shifts.

  • Nightly AI audit of your Google Ads account
  • A human reviews and ships every change
  • Budget flexes with seasonal demand
Measured on jobs, not vanity

Measured on jobs, not vanity

We put call tracking on everything, so you can see which spend actually rings the phone, which keyword and which suburb produced the booking, and what a job costs to win. No credit for clicks that went nowhere. You get a plain read on cost per genuine enquiry and cost per booked job.

  • Call tracking on every channel
  • Cost per genuine enquiry and per booked job
  • A clear line from spend to work in your calendar

Why trades choose us

Built for businesses run from a ute.

Three reasons hands-on operators pick Caffeinate over a generic agency.

01

We close the missed-call gap, not just open the tap

Most agencies sell you more clicks and leave the answering to you. We bring the high-intent enquiries in and then catch every one with AI voice agents and live chat, so the call that comes while you are on the tools still turns into a booking. That is the difference between paying for leads and winning jobs.

02

We build the software, so we operate it for you

The AI that answers your calls is our own product, ConversAI, not a tool we resell. Our AI agents audit your Google Ads account every night and a human reviews and ships the fixes. You get systems that are watched constantly, from a team that ships real software rather than slideware.

03

Local and intent-first, the way trades are found

We spend on the emergency and same-day searches in the suburbs you actually service, set up Local Services Ads and the Google Verified badge where you qualify, and build the Google Business Profile and suburb pages that win the map pack. Every dollar is pointed at work you can reach.

How it works

From first call to a fuller calendar.

Phase 1 Week 1

Listen and map the service area

We learn your trades, your best jobs and the suburbs you want more of, then map your Primary Service Area and the emergency and same-day terms that matter. We audit your current Google Business Profile, website and any existing ad spend so we know what is leaking.

Phase 2 Weeks 2 to 3

Set up tracking and answering

We put call tracking on every channel and stand up the AI voice agent and live chat trained on your business, so no enquiry rings out from day one. Where you qualify, we begin the Local Services Ads screening and licence and insurance verification.

Phase 3 Weeks 3 to 4

Launch the high-intent campaigns

Google Ads go live on your intent and emergency searches in your service area, alongside Google Business Profile optimisation and the first suburb and service pages. Meta retargeting starts catching the people who looked but did not book.

Phase 4 Ongoing

Audit nightly and compound

Our AI agents audit the account every night and a human ships the fixes, so spend keeps following what converts through seasonal swings. Local SEO builds month on month, your review base grows, and the reporting ties spend to booked jobs.

Common questions

What trades ask us first.

I am on the tools all day and cannot answer the phone. How does that get fixed?

This is the exact problem we are built for. Our AI voice agents answer when you cannot, after hours and while you are working, qualify the job, capture the details and book it into your diary. Paired with AI live chat on your site, every call and web enquiry gets handled the moment it arrives, so it never becomes a job for the next business.

Will Google Ads actually bring me the right jobs or just tyre-kickers?

We build campaigns around high-intent searches like emergency, same day and near me, tied to the suburbs in your Primary Service Area, so you pay for people who need the work done and can be reached. Call tracking then shows which keywords and suburbs produced real bookings, and we shift budget toward those. See Google Ads for how we run it.

What are Local Services Ads and can I get the Google Verified badge?

Local Services Ads sit at the very top of search and charge per lead rather than per click, and they suit trades well. To qualify you generally need an ABN, public liability insurance and the trade licence your state requires, then you pass Google’s background and licence check, which can take a week or two. We handle the setup and screening and keep the listing optimised once it is approved.

My work is seasonal. Can the marketing flex with that?

Yes, and it should. Air conditioning peaks in summer, heating and hot water spike in the cold, and demand for most trades moves through the year. Our nightly AI audit and active management push budget toward the hours and seasons that convert and ease off when they do not, so you are not burning spend in the quiet weeks.

How do I know the marketing is actually working?

We put call tracking on every channel so you can see which spend rings the phone, which keyword and suburb produced the booking, and what a job costs to win. You get a plain read on cost per genuine enquiry and cost per booked job, not clicks and impressions that do not pay the bills.

How are you different from the lead-aggregator middlemen?

Aggregators sell the same lead to several trades and you fight over it. We build your own marketing and your own answering systems, so the enquiry comes to you, gets answered instantly and belongs to you. You own the customer and the relationship, not a marketplace that resells your job to your competitors.

Do I need a new website to start?

Not always. We can run ads and stand up the AI answering on your current site to stop the leak quickly. If your site is slow or does not convert, a fast trade website built to turn visits into calls is usually worth it, but we will tell you honestly whether it is the first priority for your money.
