Contractor marketing in Palm Beach County has a specific problem. The work is spectacular, the jobs are big, and the marketing is usually a website from 2016, a Facebook page the office manager posts on twice a year, and a lead form nobody checks until Thursday. Meanwhile the homeowner in Jupiter with a $60,000 backyard budget is scrolling past every one of those and hiring the guy whose truck they saw in a neighbor's driveway.
We built Bates Media to be that truck in the driveway, on every phone in the county. A contractor marketing agency in Jupiter, Florida, that does the one thing generic agencies cannot: we film your real jobs, and everything else runs on that footage. Ads, website, Google profile, social, follow-up. One system, one flat monthly, one report tracked to the dollar.
The system, for a contractor
- Film. A production day on your best job. Your crew, your trucks, your finished work, the homeowner if they will say it on camera. The production side.
- Run. Meta ads built from that footage, tested weekly until the winning ad shows up, then scaled. How the media buying works.
- Answer. Every lead gets a text back in seconds from an AI trained on how your office talks. It qualifies, books the estimate, and chases it for days while you are on the job. The follow-up and the CRM.
- Get found. Your Google Business Profile rebuilt and fed, a compliant review engine that compounds, and local SEO plus Local Services Ads so the phone rings from people already searching.
- Look the part. A website that finally looks like the work, with scroll stories of your builds. And a social feed that shows the town a real job every week.
- Track. Cost per lead, cost per booked estimate, return on ad spend, wired to your pipeline. One number that matters.
Trades we work with in Palm Beach County
- Landscape design and installation. Reveals from the air, before and afters, crews at work. A landscape design brand got 500 followers and three viral posts in three weeks from the footage alone.
- Pool builders and outdoor living. The pool going in is the ad. A pool builder went from 14 reviews under four stars to nearly 80 at 4.9 and stopped needing ads.
- Roofing. The neighbor angle works: a real roof on a real street the prospect drives past. Filmed from the roof and from the air.
- Custom construction and remodeling. Walkthroughs, progress time lapses, the finished estate reveal. Builders use the same films to close the next client.
- Painting. A commercial painter with no website and no profile went to hundreds of reviews and doubled the residential side of the business.
- Lawn care, tree service, land clearing, pressure washing. High volume trades where the $14 lead and the instant text back change the whole economics.
- Cabinetry, windows and doors, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, garage doors. Trust trades where reviews and speed to lead do most of the work.
Why contractors get burned by agencies, and what we do differently
Half our client list has been burned before. The pattern is always the same. An agency three time zones away, generic creative, a report full of impressions, and a lead form that fills up with tire kickers nobody calls back. The lead was never the problem. The creative was generic and the response was slow.
So we fix both. The creative is your real job, filmed by us, which no competitor can copy. The response is a text in seconds, every time, even at nine on a Saturday night. And the whole thing is visible: you see the ad account, the pipeline, and the report. If the numbers are not there, you will see that too, and so will we, and we will fix it. We are in Jupiter. Jack answers his own phone.
What it costs, honestly
Flat monthly, no percentage of your ad spend, month to month with no long contract. The video is why the number is what it is. Ads management alone runs seven or eight hundred dollars anywhere, and it does not include a camera crew on your job every quarter. We do not put the sheet on the website, but you get the full pricing before the call, and the investment is the same whether your ad budget is $30 a day or $300. Say the word and we go.
