Your customers are asking. Google is answering with someone else.
We get established South African service businesses into Google's local pack and into the answers ChatGPT, Perplexity and Copilot give. Start with a free Visibility Check: twelve real searches, run live on your phone.

Why this keeps happening
The businesses at the top of the results are often not businesses at all. In September 2026 we searched "best solar installers Johannesburg" and "best air conditioning installers Johannesburg". The organic results were Procompare, Snupit, ZenSolar, SolarZA and Local Pros — lead-generation companies. They rank, and then sell your own customers back to you as leads.
Searching has also moved. Buyers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Copilot who they should use for a job in their town. Those answers are built out of Google Business Profiles, websites and reviews. If yours are thin or missing, you are not in the answer, and you will never know you were left out.
The Visibility Check, free
We take the three jobs you most want to be called for, and run each one in four places. That is twelve checks. We do it on your phone, in front of you, and screenshot every result with the date on it.
| Search | Google local pack | ChatGPT | Perplexity | Copilot |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Job 1 in your town | Are you in the map results? | Are you named? | Are you named? | Are you named? |
| Job 2 in your town | Are you in the map results? | Are you named? | Are you named? | Are you named? |
| Job 3 in your town | Are you in the map results? | Are you named? | Are you named? | Are you named? |
You keep the screenshots and the list of who is beating you, whether you work with us or not.
The Visibility Fix
If you decide to go ahead, this is the work:
- Your Google and Bing business profiles rebuilt: correct categories, hours and service areas, duplicate listings removed, and your name, address and phone number made consistent everywhere they appear.
- A new website built on our hosting, covering up to six of your main services and up to six of the areas you work in. Extra pages are quoted separately.
- LocalBusiness and FAQ markup, so Google and the AI tools can read what you do and where you do it.
- A quote form that reaches your WhatsApp and your inbox, and logs every enquiry in a sheet you can see.
- You see the finished site on a private link first. You pay after that, before it goes live on your domain.
We do not touch your existing website and we do not take ownership of your Google profile. We take Manager access only, and it comes off the day you leave.
What it costs
Visibility Check
Twelve live searches on your phone, plus a written audit you keep.
Visibility Fix
The Google profile overhaul and the new site. Paid once, before go-live.
Quote Automation
Optional add-on. Enquiry comes in, a priced PDF quote goes out by email.
Visibility Engine
Hosting, a weekly Google post, review requests, one new page a month, a one-page report, and the 60-day re-tests.
Hosting only
If you stop the monthly work, your site stays up. No reporting, no changes.
How you will know it worked
Day 1
All twelve checks screenshotted before we change anything, plus your Google profile's calls, direction requests and website clicks for the last 90 days.
Day 30
The same twelve checks, sent to you whether they have moved or not.
Day 60
Day 1 and Day 60 side by side, with your profile figures and every enquiry the quote form logged.
What we promise, and what we don't
By Day 60 you will appear in at least one of the twelve checks you were missing from on Day 1. If you don't, you get 30 days of the Visibility Engine free.
That holds as long as you do your part: send us photos of your work, ask your customers for Google reviews, and answer the leads that come in.
We do not promise a position, a number of leads, or an amount of money. Nobody can promise those, and anyone who does is guessing.
Is this for you?
It fits if
- You have been trading for a few years and the work is good.
- Your customers rate you well.
- A single job is worth thousands, not hundreds.
- People who already know you can find you, and nobody else can.
It doesn't fit if
- You have just started and have no reviews yet.
- You are a franchise or part of a national chain.
- You would rather not ask customers for reviews or send photos of your work.
- There is nobody to answer the phone when the leads start.
Questions
What does the free check actually involve?
A call or a visit of about half an hour. We agree the three jobs you most want to be called for, run all twelve searches on your phone, and screenshot the results. You get the screenshots and the names of the businesses appearing instead of you.
Do I have to buy anything afterwards?
No. There is nothing to sign at the check and no obligation of any kind.
Do you take over my Google listing?
No. We ask for Manager access, which lets us fix the listing while you stay the owner. You can remove that access yourself at any time, and we remove it when you leave.
What happens to my current website?
Nothing. We build a new one on our hosting and show it to you on a private link. Your existing site stays exactly as it is until you have seen the new one and decided.
When do I pay?
After you have seen the finished site and before it goes live on your domain. There is no deposit.
What if I want to leave?
Thirty days' notice. You either keep the site up on hosting only at R450 a month, or we export it and point your domain wherever you want. A site you have paid for is never taken down.
