Why work with MAJ

What MAJ builds for a Montgomery plumbing company

Your problem

Trust that has to be earned on the page

Without a city license to point to, a Montgomery homeowner judges you on what they can find: registration, reviews, photos. If that comes up thin, or the call that follows rings out, the job goes elsewhere.

What we build

Proof on the page, replies and follow-up behind it

We put your county registration, reviews and crew video where homeowners look, add text back for missed calls, and keep every water heater and sewer estimate in a CRM stage with reminders.

  • Video made in house

    MAJ began as a video production company, so footage of your crew comes from the same team that runs your ads.

  • One connected system

    Pages, ads, replies and the quote pipeline are built together and reported together.

  • Local detail that holds up

    County plumbing permits, the city's gas line permit rule and MSD service, written correctly for Montgomery.

Where Montgomery plumbing marketing falls short

Quotes that go quiet
Water heater and sewer estimates near the Heritage District or Swaim Park sit unanswered and close with someone else.
Pages that skip the permit
Montgomery lists gas lines among work needing a permit. A water heater page that never mentions permits looks careless.
A ZIP shared with Blue Ash
Montgomery's ZIP, 45242, is also listed for Blue Ash, so ZIP-only reports cannot tell the cities apart.

Montgomery facts for plumbing companies

Watch

When a careful Montgomery homeowner finally calls

A careful homeowner may read your reviews for days, then call the moment a water heater starts leaking. This video shows how a missed call becomes a text with a booking link and a web form gets an instant reply, so all that checking does not end at voicemail.

  • Missed calls get a text right away
  • A booking link in the first reply
  • The lead logged with its source and address
Speed to lead: the first minutes after a missed call
Read the transcript

The first business to answer usually gets the job. A homeowner calls at a busy moment. Your team is on a job, and the call goes unanswered. Phone screen: Missed call, 2:14 PM. An automatic text goes back in seconds. Not a voicemail greeting. A friendly text from your business. Text sent automatically: Sorry we missed you! What can we help with? The homeowner replies and gets a booking link. They pick a time that works for them, right from the text. Homeowner: Hi, I need an estimate. Is this week possible? Business: Yes! Pick any open time here. Link: Book a time. Estimate booked: Thursday, 10:00 AM. The estimate lands on your calendar. Time, address and job details are filled in automatically. Calendar, Thursday: New estimate at 10:00 AM. Your team gets notified. The right people see the new booking, with everything they need. Notifications to the office and the estimator: New estimate booked, Thursday 10:00 AM, details attached. Without it, the call waits in voicemail. By the time someone calls back, the homeowner may have booked someone else. Voicemail: next morning callback. Text back: estimate booked the same afternoon.

Keeping Montgomery estimates alive

A sewer replacement or repipe quote often takes a week of thinking. This video shows every lead as a card moving from new to estimate given to won or lost, with follow-up that runs by itself.

  • Each estimate has an owner
  • Follow-up on a schedule
  • Won and lost tracked in the report
CRM pipeline: every lead tracked from first call to won job
Read the transcript

Every lead gets a card. Every card keeps moving. Every call, form and text becomes a lead card. Nothing lives on a sticky note or in someone's head. Cards move across clear stages. New, Contacted, Estimate booked, Estimate sent, then Won or Lost. Follow-ups go out on day 1, 3 and 7. Automatic texts and emails, so quotes do not go cold. Day 1, check-in text sent. Day 3, follow-up email sent. Day 7, last check-in text sent. Customer replied. Every quote ends in Won or Lost. Won jobs move to the schedule. Lost ones get a reason, so you can learn from them. Won: added to the schedule. Lost reason: went with another quote. The whole pipeline on one screen. See what is new, what is booked and what is waiting, at a glance.

Montgomery plumbing marketing questions

Does Montgomery require a city contractor license?

No. The City of Montgomery says it does not have its own licensing requirement for contractors working in the city. Plumbing permits come from Hamilton County Public Health, which requires plumbers to be bonded and registered, so show that registration instead.

Who issues plumbing permits in Montgomery?

Hamilton County Public Health, not the city. The city's Community Development building division processes other permit applications, with National Inspection Corporation doing plan review and inspections, and gas line work on homes is on its required permits list.

Should drain cleaning and sewer line work be advertised separately?

Yes, in most cases. A clogged drain and a failed sewer line are different jobs with different values, searches and urgency. In one campaign, the cheaper clicks crowd out the work worth more. We split them into separate ad groups and landing pages so budget and message match the job, and the report shows what each one books.

Should a plumbing company run Google Local Services Ads?

Usually yes, if someone can answer the phone while the ads run. Google lists Plumbers as a US Local Services Ads category, and businesses that pass its screening get a Google Verified badge; unbadged providers show below them. We run LSA beside Google Search ads, compare the two on cost per booked job, and move money to the winner.

Can we still advertise the federal tax credit on water heaters?

No. The federal 25C energy efficient home improvement credit used to cover water heaters, but the IRS says it is not allowed for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Ads that still mention it invite angry calls. We rewrite water heater offers around what you actually deliver: install timing, tank and tankless options, and who shows up.
