# Zealous Growth

> Zealous Growth is a marketing agency for local service businesses (HVAC, plumbing, roofing, concrete, contracting, and more), based in Columbus, Ohio. Two principals — Marcus (websites, SEO, technical) and Cole (paid ads, growth strategy) — build and run the entire marketing system as one coordinated package: website, local SEO, Google Business Profile, reviews, content, lead capture, and reporting. Clients work directly with the people doing the work.

Pricing is transparent and two-tier:

- **Growth — $2,000/month**: conversion-optimized website (built, hosted, maintained, with ongoing CRO), Local SEO with citation management, Google Business Profile management, web SEO with organic publishing (2 optimized posts/month), and reputation management (Review Kickstart + Review Velocity). You supply content, we execute.
- **Full Department — $3,500/month**: everything in Growth, plus lead capture automation (speed-to-lead, SMS and email nurture, online booking), email marketing (2 sends/month), social media management and moderation (10–12 posts/month), photo and video editing (15 photos + 1 video/month), and strategy and reporting. We propose, request, polish, execute.
- **Add-ons**: Google & Facebook Ads Management (scoped to ad spend, no markup — ad dollars go directly to the platforms) and Additional Sub Brands at $750/month each.
- Every plan carries a written 90-day performance guarantee: 20+ new Google reviews and measurable Google Maps ranking improvement, or we keep working free until you hit it.
