When somebody in Exmouth needs what you sell, they search, look at the first few results, and ring one. Most never scroll past the third.

If you are not in those few you never find out it happened. You cannot see the customers you did not get.

We get you found on the map: your Google Business Profile, your reviews, your pages and your listings, all pointing the same way. Where a town searches for as many different jobs as this one does, that consistency is what stops you ranking for none of them.

The plan

What we would do in Exmouth

It is rarely one big thing. It is several small ones, and they compound.

Decide the order you build pages inDemand in Exmouth is spread across a lot of trades rather than concentrated in one. That makes the order you build in matter more than usual: a page each for the two or three you actually want the work from, before anything else, rather than one page that gestures at all of them.

Either route works, so pick on urgencyAds and the slower work are both reasonable starting points in Exmouth, which is not true everywhere. Which one we pick comes down to how quickly you need the phone to ring against how long you can wait for something that keeps working after you stop paying.

Set your area across the boundary, not up to itExmouth sits where more than one council meets. Dawlish, under seven kilometres away, is Teignbridge, and Exeter, about 13 kilometres away, is its own council. Very little else nearby puts that many authorities within reach of one business, which means the area you can realistically serve is wider than your postcode suggests. We set your service area to match where you actually go, not where the boundary happens to fall.

Claim and finish the Google Business ProfileEverything in the map pack comes from the profile rather than from your website, and most profiles are half filled in. Categories, service areas, opening hours, services priced or at least listed. In Exmouth that alone moves businesses that have never touched it.

Get reviews that name the job and the placeThe wording does more work than the count. Ask on the day, and ask people to name the town and the job, because "sorted our boiler in Exmouth" beats "great service" twice over: Google reads those words, and so does the next person choosing.

Make your name, address and number identical everywhereIt is the dullest item on any list and the one most often quietly wrong. Every directory and every listing needs the same three lines, because in the map results this is what decides whether Google thinks you are one business or three.

The market

What Exmouth is worth

The searches here are real and steady, and somebody is picking them up today. That is the market you are competing in.

Value and volume are not the same thing. An advertiser here pays over one pound for a building search and around £22 for a locksmith one, and across as many trades as this town searches for that spread is the map of where the money actually is. Nobody pays several times more for a visitor unless the job at the end is worth several times more.

If you travel, the nearest markets are Dawlish at under seven kilometres, Teignmouth at under eleven kilometres, Exeter at about 13 kilometres. Each is its own search: being found in Exmouth does not put you in front of anybody there, which is why they have their own pages rather than a line on this one.

Exeter sits about 13 kilometres away and is a much bigger market. That is the direction to grow into, but Exmouth is the one you can win first, and winning where you are pinned is what makes the rest possible.

It is not one trade either. Across this many separate trades being searched by name, the habit here is clearly local rather than people defaulting to the nearest big town.

Timing

When the work comes in around Exmouth

Search for building in Exmouth peaks in February and bottoms out in June, with three times as much volume at the top of the year as at the bottom. Every trade has its own shape here, and that one is the sharpest.

Which makes the quiet part of the year the part that matters. The work takes weeks to show, so what you build while nobody is looking is what is standing when February comes round.

The arrangement

How it works

We start with a free look at the Exmouth map results for what you do: where you sit now, who holds the top three, and what would have to change for you to be one of them. It costs nothing, there is nothing to sign, and you keep it whether or not we end up working together.

Nothing to pay until the work is bringing you enquiries and has covered its own cost. One business per trade in Exmouth, and that covers both sides of the boundary from here, because it is one market to you even though it is two councils. It is rolling, and you can stop whenever you want.
