Google didn't know she existed. Every online job went to competitors with websites.

A Melbourne electrician had been in business for 6 months, running entirely on word-of-mouth referrals. She had no website, no Google Business Profile, no online presence whatsoever. She was getting 2–3 jobs per month — enough to survive but not enough to grow. Every competitor with a website and GBP was capturing the online search traffic she was invisible to.

The breaking point came when a customer told her they tried to find her on Google, couldn't, and hired someone else. Without a website, potential customers had no way to see her services, pricing, service areas, or hours. She was losing jobs she never even knew existed. Referral-only income is inherently unstable — feast one month, famine the next.

How TradesPro solved it

A complete online presence built from zero — website, GBP, SEO, and review system — all for a flat $30/mo.

5-page professional website

A clean, mobile-responsive site with services, service areas, pricing guide, contact form, and about page. Built in 7 days. Customers can now find her services and call with one click.

Google Business Profile setup

GBP created from scratch with correct categories, service areas across Melbourne, photos, and operating hours. Ranked #3–5 in Local Pack within 3 months — visible to everyone searching for electricians in her area.

Basic local SEO

On-page SEO optimisation for Melbourne suburb keywords, local citations, and consistent NAP (name, address, phone) across the web. Google can now find and rank her site properly.

Review collection system

Automated review requests sent after every completed job. 12 Google reviews in 3 months — social proof that boosts Local Pack ranking and convinces new customers to call.

“I thought word of mouth was enough. Then a customer told me they couldn't find me on Google and went with someone else. That was the wake-up call. Three months on TradesPro and I'm fully booked.”
