Get found on Google in Runcorn and Widnes. Get the call.

I sort your Google profile, reviews and local listings so people nearby ring you. The Google plan is £149 a month. Need a website? £595, once.

Runcorn-based You own your website Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm

Search ‘roofer Runcorn’. Are you in the top three?

Google shows three local firms on a map near the top of the page. Those three get the first look, and getting in isn’t down to who does the best job. It’s down to whose Google profile is set up properly, has fresh reviews and gets looked after.

Illustration, not a real search. Want to know where you actually come? That’s what the free check is for.

What I do each month

The 90-day guarantee

I’m new. Here’s the deal.

Born Creative is new, so I haven’t got a wall of case studies, and I won’t make any up. Instead the first 10 trades I take on get a founding price. With their permission, I’ll show you what happened to their calls, with real, dated numbers.

If your calls, direction requests and website clicks, added together, aren’t up in days 61 to 90 compared with the 30 days before I started, I keep working free for up to 3 more months. Terms apply, in plain English.

What’s a lost job worth to you?

Type both figures and I’ll do the sum.

Uses only the figures you type. Not a promise of work.

How it works

  2. 02

    Day one: your starting point

    On day one I take a snapshot of your last 30 days: calls, direction requests and website clicks from Google. You get a copy.

    Profile clean-up, photos, review link and directory listings. Free and no obligation if you’ve bought a website from me.

  4. 04

  5. 05

    Day 90: the guarantee check

    I add up your calls, direction requests and website clicks for days 61 to 90 and compare them with the 30 days before I started. If they’re not up, I keep working free for up to 3 more months.

Good trades shouldn’t lose work just because someone else is better at Google.

I’m Paul, and I’m based in Runcorn. Round here there are plenty of good tradespeople who do honest work and turn up when they say they will, and they still lose jobs. Not to better tradespeople, but to firms that are better at Google. Others get tied into agency deals that don’t pay off.

I set up Born Creative to change that, and to do it straight. Here’s how I work.

  • Your website is yours.

    Pay once and you own it outright. Some firms take your site away if you stop paying their monthly fee. I never will. If you leave, it goes with you.

  • Easy to leave.

    You can cancel any time, with no notice period. Just tell me.

  • Honest numbers.

    I record your calls, direction requests and website clicks before I start, so you can see for yourself if it’s working. If they’re not up after 90 days, I keep working free for up to 3 more months.

  • You deal with me.

    No account managers and no jargon. You get me, on the phone, Monday to Friday, 9 to 5.

I’d rather earn your work by getting your phone ringing than by tying you in.

Straight answers

I get enough work by word of mouth.

Great. Even word-of-mouth customers usually look you up on Google before they ring. This makes sure what they find helps, not hurts.

Is this just Checkatrade?

No. Checkatrade is a directory you pay a membership fee to be listed on, next to your competitors. This is your own Google profile. It’s free to have and it’s yours. I make it work harder.

I haven’t got a Google profile. Can you help?

Yes, I set one up and verify it with you as part of the plan.

Do you do Facebook or paid ads?

No. I focus on getting you found on Google for free, through your profile, reviews and website. Paid ads are not included.

Do I have to buy a website?

No. If your site does the job, keep it and I’ll work with it. If you need a new one, it’s £595, once, for up to 5 pages. More pages, a shop or bookings, I’ll quote for separately.

Who owns the website?

You do. Your domain is registered in your name, and the site and files are yours. Stop paying me for hosting or the Google plan and you take it with you.

What does hosting cost?

Nothing extra on the Google plan, including the £99 founding price. Website only, it’s £15 a month or £150 a year, and that covers your security certificate, contact form, backups and keeping the site online. Your domain is in your name, so you pay its renewal direct.

What if the free month doesn’t bring in work?

Tell me before day 28 and you pay nothing for the Google plan. Your website is still yours. Hosting is then £15 a month or £150 a year. The free month comes with a website, not with the £99 founding price.

How long before it works?

It varies. Some fixes show within weeks, but most of this builds over two to three months. That’s why the Google plan has a 3-month minimum, and why the guarantee is at 90 days.

Can you get me to number one?

No one honest can promise that. Google decides. What I can promise is the work, the reporting, and the 90-day guarantee.

What do you need from me?

Access to your Google profile, photos of your jobs now and then, and someone answering the phone when it rings.

What happens after 3 months?

You can cancel anytime, with no notice period. The month you’ve already paid for runs to its end; I don’t refund part months.

Is there a setup fee?

No setup fee on the Google plan.
