The 5-Site Strategic Foothold:
Tactical Market Entry

Because in local business, you’re either the authority or you’re invisible

The Strategy: “High-Ground” Positioning

You don’t need to be everywhere to make a significant impact on your bottom line. The Strategic Foothold is designed to identify the 5 most profitable “nodes” in your 10-mile radius and seize them.

Instead of a scattered approach, we focus your digital firepower on the specific suburbs and high-intent keywords that generate the most valuable contracts.

How the 5-Node Network Works:

  • Precision Targeting: We analyse your 10-mile radius to find the “Goldilocks” zones—areas with high search volume but manageable competition.
  • Rapid Deployment: Because the network is leaner, we often see “movement” in local search results faster, getting your phone to ring while the Moat begins to settle.
  • The Shared-Lead Bypass: Even with 5 sites, you are still bypassing the “Auction Houses” like Bark and Checkatrade. These 5 sites are yours and yours alone.

What’s Included in the Foothold?

  • 5 Exclusive High-Authority Domains: Fully managed and optimised for your specific trade.
  • Core Suburb Optimisation: We lock down your hometown plus the 4 most affluent neighbouring areas.
  • Direct Lead Routing: Every enquiry is yours exclusively. We never share or sell the same lead twice.
  • The “Upgrade Path”: You secure your position. If you decide to expand to a 12-site Lockdown later, you get the first right of refusal on the remaining nodes in your postcode.

Is the 5-Site Network Right for You?

The Foothold is the ideal choice for:

  • Solo Operators: Who need a consistent flow of work but don’t have multiple crews to manage.
  • Market Testers: Firms looking to expand into a new territory (like the M62 corridor or South London) before committing to full dominance.
  • The Efficiency-Minded: Those who want to stop paying for “junk leads” and start building a small but powerful digital asset.

“Establish your presence. Secure your leads. Scale when you’re ready.”

Is Your Territory Still Open?

Even for a 5-site network, we need to ensure the “High Ground” is still available in your area. We won’t take your money if we can’t get you the results.

💡 Thinking of scaling? > Most firms find that while the Foothold gets the phone ringing, the Total Lockdown (12-Site) is where the real market dominance happens. It offers over 2x the coverage for a significantly lower cost-per-node.
