The plain-English guide to getting your trade found, chosen and booked in Ottawa — and the agency that does it for you.
Get My Free AuditContractor marketing in Ottawa is simply everything that makes a homeowner in Kanata, Barrhaven, Orléans or the Glebe pick you instead of the other truck. In 2026 that decision happens online: they search Google, they scan the map, they read reviews, and they call the business that looks the safest bet. If you're a contractor who wants more of those calls, this page explains exactly how it works — and how Packed Agency does it for Ottawa trades.
97% of people looking for a local service start on Google, and the top three Google Maps results take roughly 70% of the calls. It doesn't matter how good your work is if a homeowner never sees you. Most Ottawa contractors do excellent work with strong reviews — they're just invisible past the first few results. Contractor marketing closes that gap: it puts your business where the searching, ready-to-hire homeowner is already looking.
We focus only on contractors and home services, so every lesson from one client makes the next stronger:
We publish our prices — almost no agency does. A conversion website is $2,950 one-time (yours to keep). Ongoing plans start at $1,495/month for the Lead Engine (local SEO, reviews, missed-call text-back). You can buy any single service on its own, too. See the full price list →
We're founder-led, trades-only, and we put our promises in the contract: you own everything we build, there's no lock-in after 90 days, and we take just one client per trade per city — so your competitor can't hire us. Every monthly report is written in calls, jobs and dollars, not vanity metrics. And you talk to the person who actually does the work.
The best way to see where you stand is our free 10-point audit — we check your Google listing, reviews, website and phones, then send you a 10-minute video of exactly what to fix. No meeting, no pressure, no cost.
A conversion website is $2,950 one-time; ongoing management starts at $1,495/month for the Lead Engine. Individual services (local SEO, ads, automation) can be bought on their own. All prices are published on our pricing page.
Win-back campaigns and missed-call text-back work within days; ads within the first week; Google Maps rankings in 60–90 days, then they compound. We start with the fast wins so you see proof early.
