Our construction practice · Australia wide

Marketing for builders and construction companies.

More work. Then the team to deliver it. We build the website that shows what you've delivered, run the campaigns that bring in project enquiries, and when the work lands, we run the hiring ads that find the crew.

Why construction is its own practice here

Win more work and the next problem is people.

A builder with a strong name on site often has a website that doesn't show it. Developers, strata managers and homeowners look you up before they ring, see a thin page with a phone number, and move on to someone who looks bigger.

Sort that out and the enquiries start to come. Then the next problem shows up: you need concreters, labourers and leading hands to deliver the jobs, and the good ones already have work.

So we plan the website, the lead generation and the hiring together, with one team running all of it. When the work picks up, the hiring campaign is already built and ready to switch on.

Sound familiar?

  • The website went up years ago and shows none of your recent projects.
  • Enquiries come in, but plenty are jobs you'd never quote.
  • A form sits in the inbox until someone gets back from site.
  • You've knocked back work because you couldn't staff it.
  • The last job board ad brought in a few CVs and nobody who could start Monday.

How the practice works

Three stages, run by one team.

Get found, win the work, build the team. Most builders start at whichever stage is costing them the most right now, and the audit tells us which one that is.

Stage 01 · Get found

Websites and search

Before anyone rings a builder about a real project, they look you up. We build project-led websites that show the jobs you've delivered, the sectors you work in and who to call. Then we make sure Google can find them, with service and suburb pages, your Google Business Profile and a site that loads fast on a phone.

Stage 02 · Win the work

Project lead generation

Google Search reaches the people already looking for a builder like you. Meta reaches the ones who haven't started looking yet. Every campaign lands on a page built for one type of job, calls are tracked, and each enquiry gets a reply straight away, even when you're on the tools.

Pro-Build Plus: cost per enquiry fell from A$486 in Aug to A$106.95 in the week of 11 Sep, once we cleaned out the wrong search terms.

Hiring campaigns

Meta hiring ads written for the trade, with screening questions built into the form, so you get a list of locals who can actually start. Job ads have their own rules on Meta: no targeting by age or gender, and no lookalike audiences. The creative and the questions do the filtering instead.

Websites we've designed and built

Built around their own projects.

Each site is made from the builder's own jobs, photos and service areas, so it looks as strong online as the work does on site.

How we work with builders

Straight terms, before any work starts.

No package gets pitched before the audit. Once we know what's holding you back, you get a plan and a fixed quote in writing.

We're based at Valdora on the Sunshine Coast. Our construction clients run from the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane down to Melbourne, and none of this work needs us on your site.

The audit
Free. I go through your website, search, ads, enquiry follow-up and hiring myself, then call you with what I'd fix first.
Build work
Websites and landing pages are a fixed quote: 50% deposit, 50% on launch.
Campaigns
A monthly partnership, month to month with 30 days notice. No lock in.
Ad spend
Always yours, paid straight to Meta or Google.
Ownership
The website, domain, ad accounts and applicant lists stay in your name.

Straight answers

Questions builders ask us.

Anything else, call Jed on 0400 463 257.

What kind of construction companies do you work with?

Commercial concreters, facade remediation contractors, custom home builders, plastering and painting companies and other trades. If you build or fix things for a living and want more of the right work, or the people to deliver it, we should talk.

Do I need all three stages?

No. Some builders only need hiring right now. Others need the website sorted before any ad is worth running. The audit shows which stage is costing you most, and that's where we start.

How much does construction marketing cost?

We don't publish packages, because we only prescribe one after the audit. Websites and landing pages are a fixed quote, half up front and half on launch. Campaigns are a monthly fee, month to month. Ad spend is separate and always paid by you, straight to Meta or Google.

Can you promise a set number of projects or hires?

No, and be wary of anyone who does. What we can promise is that you see the same numbers we do: cost per enquiry, cost per applicant and where each one came from. Big commercial jobs also take months to quote and award, so we report the pipeline as it really is.

Do you only work with builders on the Sunshine Coast?

No. We're based on the Sunshine Coast, but we work with construction companies in Brisbane and Melbourne too. Websites, search, ads and hiring all run remotely, and I'm on the phone whenever you need me.

Free audit, then your Scaling Roadmap

It's time to get Scaled.

Fill in a few details and I'll go through your ads, your website or store, and how you follow up enquiries, then show you what's leaking and what we'd fix first. If we're not a fit, no worries at all. You'll still leave with something you didn't know before.
