How we work with home-service companies
Here's what you sign up for with Mindflow Marketing: the terms, who you deal with, what happens in your first 90 days and what you see after that. It starts with the four terms owners ask about first.
- 1
A homeowner has a job to do
emergency plumber near me - 2
They look in three places
Google resultsThe mapAn AI answer - 3
They check before they call
Reviews, photos of real work and a page that answers their question.
- 4
They request an estimate
Your form or phone number, working on their phone.
Not an actual ranking, listing or result.
How we work with you
| Ownership | You own every account. Website files and copy are yours once paid. |
|---|---|
| Exclusivity | We won't work with your direct competitor in your area. |
| Commitment | The first 90 days are committed and billed monthly. After that it's month to month with 30 days' notice. |
| Setup | No setup fee. |
What no one can promise: a ranking, a spot on the map or a mention in an AI answer. We commit to the work and show you what it did.
Who will you deal with?
You deal with Youssef directly. Calls and texts are answered as they come in; emails usually within hours. Youssef Hodaigui founded Mindflow and has done SEO since 2004. He's your contact between quarterly calls.
How does it start?
It starts with a free look at your market, before you sign anything. Prefer a full plan first? See the Audit & Roadmap.
- You ask for a free AI Visibility Review.A short form: your name, email, website, trade and service area.
- You get a written report within 2 business days.It covers your map position, your Business Profile, your reviews against your top three competitors, what AI tools say, and the three fixes we'd make first.
- We walk you through it in 20 minutes.If we're a fit, you get your exact price in writing before any work starts. If we're not, we'll tell you.
What happens in your first 90 days?
The first 90 days are committed, and that's when we build the foundation the rest of the work depends on.
First: fix the foundation. Your Business Profile, access to your accounts, the technical problems that stop Google from reading your site, and your name, phone and services matching everywhere. We also check that your calls and forms are tracked.
Next: build what your customers search for. A page for each service and town you really cover, answers to the questions customers ask, and a review process your team can run.
What do we need from you?
- Access to your accounts.
- The services and towns you want more work in.
- Quick answers when we have questions.
What happens every month after that?
The work keeps going after the foundation is in: new pages where the searches are, replies to reviews, and changes that turn more visits into calls and estimate requests. That ongoing work is why it's a monthly program, not a one-time project.
What will you see?
You get a written report every month: what we did, what moved and what's next. Every quarter we get on a call to review it and plan the next stretch. Because every account is in your name, you can also log in to your Business Profile, Search Console and analytics yourself at any time.
How are reviews handled?
Reviews stay yours and stay honest. Review requests go out from your own CRM or review tool, and we help you set it up. When a new review comes in, our tool drafts a reply tailored to it. You approve each reply, or, once you've tested the drafts and you're happy with them, replies can post automatically. We never write reviews, and we never offer customers anything in return for one. More on our review program.
What if you want to leave?
After the first 90 days, give 30 days' notice. Your accounts were in your name from the start, so there's nothing to hand back, and your website files and copy are yours once paid.
"Mindflow Marketing has been our digital partner for 8 years, and they've been instrumental in transforming Precision Fenceworks from a small local operation to the established fence company we are today. … What impresses me most is how Youssef takes the time to understand the fencing industry specifically, not just generic marketing. I'd recommend Mindflow Marketing to any home service business looking for a digital partner who delivers measurable results and genuinely cares about your business growth."
Questions about working with us
- Why is SEO a monthly fee?
- Because the work doesn't stop once the foundation is in. It continues with new pages where the searches are, review replies and changes that turn more visits into calls, plus a written report every month. A one-time project can fix a site; it doesn't keep working on it as your market changes.
- How long does SEO take?
- Usually months, not weeks. How fast depends on your competitors and on how complete your Business Profile and site are today.
- Do you guarantee rankings?
- No. No one can guarantee a spot on Google or in an AI answer. We show you the work and the results.
- Is AI SEO extra?
- No. AI search optimization is included in SEO in every plan.
- Am I locked into a contract?
- The first 90 days are committed and billed monthly. After that it's month to month with 30 days' notice.
- Who owns my accounts and website?
- You do. Every account stays in your name, and website files and copy are yours once paid.
- Will you work with my competitor?
- No. We won't work with your direct competitor in your area.
- Do I need a new website?
- Not always. If yours can't turn visits into calls, we'll say so and quote a site separately.
- Do you run Google Ads, Local Services Ads or ChatGPT ads?
- Case by case. Our plans cover SEO, AI search, your Google Business Profile, reviews and conversion. When paid ads fit your market and goals, we scope Google Ads, Local Services Ads or ChatGPT ads in your proposal. Ad spend goes to the platform and isn't part of our fee.
