If you’re a tradesman in the South East, you’ve probably heard the horror stories. You’ve heard of lads spending a fortune on "SEO" or big agency "packages" only to have their phone blown up by tyre-kickers while they’re trying to get a job finished.
Most tradesmen we talk to in Carlow and Kilkenny don't want a "viral" business. They just want consistency. They want 2 to 5 solid leads a week that they can actually handle without losing their minds.
At Your Marketing Story, we’ve built a "Tradesman Framework" that fits your life, not the other way around. Here is the honest truth about how it works.
1. You don't need a "Big City" Budget
Despite what the big agencies tell you, you don't need to spend €1,000 a month to get noticed in the South East.
The Reality: Because we target specifically (e.g., just a 20km radius of your base), your ad spend goes much further.
The Strategy: For the cost of a few breakfast rolls and coffees a week, we can put your services in front of people in your area who are actively looking for a quote right now.
2. Stop the "Interruption" (Email Leads over Phone Calls)
The biggest complaint we hear? "I can't answer the phone when I'm on a roof/under a sink."
The Solution: We set up your ads to drive Email Leads or Contact Forms rather than direct calls.
The Benefit: You get a notification with the customer's name, number, and the job details. You can review these in the evening or over your lunch break when you actually have the time to talk. No more "hiding" from the phone while you're working.
3. Join the 21st Century: The AI Voice Agent
If you really want to scale but hate the admin, this is the game-changer. We can now set up an AI Voice Agent for your business.
How it works: If a customer calls your number while you’re busy, the AI answers in a professional, human-sounding voice.
The Result: It can answer basic questions ("Do you do emergency call-outs?"), take the customer's details, and even book a quote directly into your calendar. You finish your day's work, open your phone, and see your appointments already lined up.
4. Quality over Quantity
We don't want your phone "hopping." A phone that hops with bad leads is just a distraction.
The Strategy: We use specific targeting to filter out people looking for "the cheapest guy." We target homeowners and property managers in the South East who value reliability and quality over a "bargain" price.
The Goal: 2 to 5 high-quality enquiries every single week. Consistent, manageable, and profitable.
Let us handle the "Story," you handle the tools.
You’re great at what you do. You shouldn't have to be a marketing expert too. At Your Marketing Story, we speak your language. No jargon, no fluff—just a steady stream of work so you can plan your months ahead with confidence.
