Why painting contractors?
Honestly? Because painting companies get fleeced by marketing agencies and lead platforms more than almost any trade I've seen, and the jobs are big enough that good marketing pays for itself fast.
A whole-home interior repaint runs about $4,400 to $6,600. An exterior repaint on a 2,000 square foot house runs $4,400 to $8,800, and cabinet refinishing averages about $4,000. A handful of extra booked jobs a month changes a painting business.
That's also why the industry is full of agencies charging thousands a month for vague reports, and lead platforms selling the same homeowner to four painters at once. About 31% of SEO providers charge more than $2,000 a month. A year goes by before anyone notices the estimates never showed up.
I'm not interested in any of that. I want to do real work for real painting companies and get judged on the only metric that matters: estimate requests from homeowners and property managers who are ready to paint. Painting companies are not new to me. Through RapidWebLaunch I built the websites for Grey Wolf Painting in Santa Rosa, CA and VF Painter in Tampa, FL, and Victor Falcon of VF Painting says I have managed his site for over three years. The Painter SEO Company is the newer, painting-only brand where that work now lives.
