Over the past few years, I’ve had hundreds of conversations with contractors — remodelers, outdoor living builders, design-build firms and they all seem to say the same thing:
“We spent thousands on a website, and it didn’t get us a single job.”
“The SEO guy sends reports, but I have no idea what they mean and no one is calling.”
“We’re great at what we do, but people can’t find us online.”
I started Constructo Marketing because I was tired of seeing good contractors lose jobs to competitors who weren’t better, just better marketed.
But let’s be clear: we’re not the right fit for everyone. And if you’re going to invest your hard-earned money into something like this, you deserve to know what you’re really getting into.
So in this post, I’m going to give you a straight-up, no-BS breakdown of what it’s like to work with Constructo — the good and the not-so-good — so you can make the right call for your business.
The Pros of Working with Constructo Marketing
1. We Know Contractors Inside and Out
This isn’t our first rodeo. We’ve worked with dozens of contractors across the country from high-end remodelers to outdoor living pros to design-build firms running multi-million dollar businesses.
We understand how homeowners actually shop for contractors. We know what makes them click, what makes them call, and what makes them trust one company over another.
We also know the headaches you deal with: managing crews, chasing down leads, trying to stay ahead of the slow season, dealing with clients who “need to talk to their spouse.” That’s why our system is built around your reality not some generic marketing advice from people who’ve never been on a job site.
2. You Get a System Not Just Services
A website alone won’t grow your business. Neither will SEO, ads, or a fancy CRM… on their own.
The problem is, most marketing companies give you isolated parts. You’re left with a bunch of disconnected tools that don’t talk to each other and worse, don’t produce real results.
What we do is different. We give you a complete Growth Engine:
- A website designed to convert, not just look pretty
- A local SEO strategy that gets you found on Google
- Google Ads that generate qualified leads (not just clicks)
- Automation that follows up with leads instantly so you stop losing deals to slow response times
- Coaching and analytics so you know exactly what’s working
It’s all connected. And it works together to help you grow.
3. It’s Hands-Off for You
One of the biggest compliments we get from clients is: “You guys just handled it.”
We know you’re busy. You’re not looking to become a marketing expert, you just want the leads to come in, the follow-up to happen, and your business to grow while you focus on what you do best.
That’s why we’ve built everything to be hands-off. You don’t need to log into five platforms or chase down reports. We’ll keep you updated, loop you in when decisions are needed, and make it as easy as possible on your end.
You get expert implementation without adding more to your plate.
4. You Actually Know What’s Working
It’s crazy how many contractors have been burned by agencies that kept them in the dark.
One client told us: “I was getting these monthly ‘reports,’ but I had no idea if I was getting leads or just clicks. I couldn’t tie anything back to real jobs.”
That doesn’t fly here.
We give you a live dashboard that shows every lead, every phone call, and where your budget is going. We review everything together in plain English, not marketing jargon.
If something’s not working, we tell you and we fix it. If something is working, we double down. That’s how growth should feel.
5. We Coach You to Win (Beyond Marketing)
Marketing isn’t just about getting the lead. It’s about what you do with the lead.
If your sales process is broken, or your pricing is unclear, or your follow-up is delayed, you’re leaving money on the table.
That’s why we coach our clients beyond the marketing. We’ll help you:
- Improve your speed to lead
- Create educational content that builds trust (like pricing pages, FAQs, and comparison guides)
- Implement “Assignment Selling” to close more jobs before you even show up for the estimate
- Build automated follow-up systems that keep leads warm without lifting a finger
Our goal isn’t just to get you leads. It’s to help you win more of them.

The Cons of Working with Constructo Marketing
1. We’re Not the Cheapest Option — And That’s On Purpose
If you’re shopping around for the cheapest marketing agency or looking for a $500/month SEO deal, we’re not it.
We’ve had contractors tell us, “You’re more expensive than what I was paying.” And they’re right. We are. But those same contractors often come back after wasting 6–12 months with someone cheaper and say, “I should’ve started with you guys.”
We don’t compete on price. We compete on ROI, booked jobs, not empty promises. Because marketing isn’t an expense when it works. It’s an investment that should pay for itself many times over.
2. We’re Not for Everyone And We’re Okay With That
We’re pretty selective about who we work with. If you’re still trying to figure out what your business is, don’t have a clear service area, or aren’t ready to commit to a real growth strategy, we might not be the right fit just yet.
We work best with contractors doing $500K+ in annual revenue who are ready to grow, want better clients, and are willing to invest the time and resources to do it right.
If you’re in hustle mode, trying to do everything yourself, and hoping for magic… this won’t work. But if you’re serious about scaling and ready to treat marketing like a system not a side project then we’ll meet you there.
3. Results Don’t Happen Overnight
Let’s get real: if someone tells you they’ll get you to the top of Google in 30 days or fill your calendar with dream clients in a week, run.
Yes, we’ve gotten fast wins with Google Ads and SEO in some cases. But consistent, high-quality growth takes time. Especially with organic strategies like SEO and content.
You’ll start seeing momentum within the first 90 days, but the real magic happens over 6–12 months. This is about building a growth engine that compounds, not just a short-term sugar rush.
4. We’ll Challenge You to Step Up
We’re not here to just collect a retainer and send you fluffy reports. We care about your results and sometimes that means telling you the hard truth.
Maybe your photos are outdated. Maybe your sales process is slow. Maybe your messaging is confusing. If we see it, we’ll say it with respect and a clear plan to fix it.
Our best clients aren’t the ones who have it all figured out. They’re the ones who are coachable, hungry to grow, and open to making improvements. If that’s you, we’re all in.
Final Thoughts: Is Constructo Marketing Right for You?
At the end of the day, we’re not trying to be everything to everyone and we’re okay with that.
But if you’re a contractor who:
- Is tired of relying only on referrals
- Wants to finally take control of your online presence
- Is ready to invest in real, sustainable growth
…then Constructo might just be the partner you’ve been looking for.
We don’t believe in fluff. We don’t believe in hype. We believe in systems, strategy, and showing up every day to help contractors win.
If you’re serious about growing and you want someone in your corner who gets it we’d love to talk.
