Question 1

I run a Plumbing / HVAC / Electrical / Cleaning (or other home service) business. Do you understand my specific industry?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We specialize exclusively in Home Service & Trade Businesses. We don't guess what works for a plumber versus a restaurant; we know the difference. We understand that a missed call for a blocked toilet is an emergency, while an HVAC install is a high-ticket consultative sale. We tailor the Growth Engine to your specific average job value and customer mindset.

Question 2

I run a different trade (Roofing, Pest Control, Landscaping, etc.) not listed above. Can you help?

Accepted Answer

100%. If your business relies on local customers calling you to come to their home or property, our Growth Engine fits perfectly. Whether you are in Roofing, Pool Service, Pest Control, Remodeling, or General Contracting, the "engine" is the same: Get found locally, get the phone to ring, and systemize the follow-up so you book the job.

Question 3

I do mostly Commercial / B2B work. Does this work for me?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but the strategy shifts. For commercial work (like facility maintenance or new construction), we focus less on "emergency" keywords and more on Authority & Trust. We build your "Reputation Framework" to prove you are big enough to handle commercial contracts, and we optimize for terms like "Commercial HVAC [City]" which facility managers actually search for.

Question 4

Do you work with seasonal businesses (like Landscaping or Heating)?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. The Growth Engine is built to smooth out the revenue rollercoaster. During your busy season, the system maximizes efficiency so you don't miss calls. In the off-season, we switch to "Reactivation Mode," using your database to generate service calls and maintenance jobs to keep your crews busy.

Question 5

My service area is small/rural. Will this still work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In fact, systems often work better in smaller markets because there is less noise. You don't need 10,000 visitors to make money; you just need to capture the 50 people who are actually looking. Our Local Visibility Launchpad ensures that when someone in your town searches, they find you first.

Question 6

Do you work with startups or one-man bands?

Accepted Answer

Our system is powerful, but it requires a business ready to handle the volume. We are best suited for established businesses (typically €10k-€20k/month revenue) that have at least one crew member or admin. If you are just starting out, check out our free resources section to get your basics right first.

Question 7

How is this different from buying leads on Angi, Thumbtack, or HomeAdvisor?

Accepted Answer

When you buy a "shared lead," you are fighting 5 other contractors for the lowest price. It's a race to the bottom. The Marvix Growth Engine generates exclusive calls and quote requests from your website and your Google profile. These customers chose YOU, not a generic list. They are higher quality, less price-sensitive, and easier to close.

Question 8

Will I get a bunch of "Price Shoppers" and tire kickers?

Accepted Answer

You will always get some, but our system filters them out better than shared leads. First, your Authority Website positions you as a premium expert, not a "cheap handyman." Second, our Qualification Forms ask the right questions upfront, scaring away people with zero budget before they even waste your time.

Question 9

I already have a CRM (ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber). Does this replace it?

Accepted Answer

No. We are partners, not competitors, to your field software. Think of it like this: Marvix gets the phone to ring and books the appointment. ServiceTitan/Jobber manages the dispatch and the invoice. We sit in front of your CRM to ensure the inquiry is actually captured and nurtured before it enters your workflow.

Question 10

What exactly is the "Pipeline Command Center"?

Accepted Answer

It is a simplified dashboard designed for owners who hate complex software. It answers three questions: Who called? Did we quote them? Did they book? It replaces the sticky notes and mental math. You can see your entire list of upcoming jobs in one glance on your phone.

Question 11

I am not "tech-savvy." Is this hard to use?

Accepted Answer

If you can send a text message, you can use our system. We have stripped away all the complex buttons and confusing charts. Plus, during onboarding, we record a personalized video showing you exactly which buttons to press to make money. We handle the technical heavy lifting; you just run your business.

Question 12

My office manager / spouse handles the scheduling. Can they use it?

Accepted Answer

Yes! In fact, they will love it more than you do. It saves them hours of manual data entry and "chasing" customers. We can set up specific user accounts for your team so they can manage the calendar while you stay focused on the big picture.

Question 13

How much time does this require from me?

Accepted Answer

We know you are busy. We need about 30 minutes for a Kickoff Call to get your photos and goals. After that, we build the system. Once it's live, you just need to answer the phone and update the status of jobs. We handle the SEO, the website updates, and the technical maintenance.

Question 14

Do I have to write the text for the website?

Accepted Answer

No. We do all the writing. We know the keywords that rank and the psychological triggers that make homeowners trust you. You just check it to make sure you like the tone.

Question 15

What happens if I miss a call?

Accepted Answer

This is where the Growth Engine pays for itself. If you miss a call or inquiry, our system automatically emails the customer instantly: "We received your message and will get back to you within the hour." You also get an email alert so you never miss an inquiry. This simple "Speed-to-Lead" automation saves roughly 30% of jobs that would otherwise go to the next competitor on Google.

Question 16

How much does the Growth Engine cost?

Accepted Answer

We believe in pricing that makes sense for a trade business. We don't hide our pricing behind "Call for Quote" walls. Our core packages typically range from €1,350 to €2,200 per month, depending on how aggressive you want to be. Note: One new bathroom install or HVAC replacement often covers the entire month's fee.

Question 17

Why is there a Setup Fee?

Accepted Answer

Because we aren't just flipping a switch. We are building a custom, high-performance asset for your business. We spend roughly 80 hours in the first month building your Authority Website, writing custom content, setting up your Google Maps, and configuring your automation.

Question 18

Is there a long-term contract?

Accepted Answer

We prioritize partnerships over handcuffs. While we offer incentives for annual commitments (like waiving the setup fee), we believe we should earn your business every month. If the system isn't working, you shouldn't be stuck paying for it.

Question 19

Do I own the website and the data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. 100%. Unlike some agencies that hold your site hostage if you leave, you own the domain, the content, and the customer list. We want you to stay because you are growing, not because you are trapped.

Question 20

Do I need a separate budget for Ads (Google/Facebook)?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. Our core system focuses on Organic Visibility (SEO & Maps), which generates "free" calls over time. However, if you want immediate results in week 1, we can add a Google Ads management component to your engine. We recommend starting with Organic and adding Fuel (Ads) once the system is proven.

Question 21

How long does it take to see results?

Accepted Answer

You will see "System Results" (organization, automated email confirmations, review requests) immediately upon launch (Day 21). You will typically see "Growth Results" (more calls from Google rankings) starting in Months 3-4. SEO is like planting a tree; it takes time to root, but once it grows, it provides fruit for years.

Question 22

Do you guarantee #1 rankings on Google?

Accepted Answer

No honest agency can guarantee a specific spot on Google (because Google changes the rules constantly). What we DO guarantee is a proven system that follows Google's best practices to the letter. We guarantee we will increase your visibility, your review count, and your conversion rate.

Question 23

What if I don't see results?

Accepted Answer

We don't hide. Every month, you get a report. If the numbers aren't moving, we hop on a strategy call to diagnose why. Is it the market? The offer? The season? We are your growth partner, which means we fix problems, we don't ignore them.
