Why work with MAJ

How MAJ helps Lebanon design-build firms win the right consults

Your problem

Historic experience nobody can see

If your site never mentions your architectural review work, a homeowner in Floraville or on North Broadway cannot tell you from a firm that has never done it.

What we build

District pages, patient video and long follow-up

We build pages that name the districts and explain review with Planning & Development, film exterior work that matched the original house, and keep every lead on planned follow-up.

  • The local detail on this page

    The overlay, the four districts and the city-run electric utility are mapped here, and we bring that detail to your site.

  • No gaps between vendors

    Video, ads, pages and the CRM run as one setup, so a homeowner who saw your exterior video still gets the follow-up.

  • Founder-led, team-backed

    Manny is on your account, backed by editors, ad account managers and automation.

What Lebanon's rules mean for your marketing

  • The Architectural Review Overlay

    Lebanon adopted an Architectural Review Overlay (ARO) District in 1996 covering its historic areas, and Planning & Development handles architectural review in the historic districts (513-228-3171). Experience with that review is a selling point; put it on a page of its own.

  • Four named historic districts

    Lebanon has four National Register historic districts: East End, Floraville, Lebanon Commercial and North Broadway. Name the ones you have worked in.

  • City zoning, county building inspection

    The city issues zoning permits for work such as additions, patio enclosures and accessory structures, and its permits page sends building inspection questions to Warren County.

  • The city runs the electric utility

    The City of Lebanon owns and operates the electric utility serving homes in the city, while Duke Energy provides gas. So for electric service, the homeowner's utility is the city, not Duke.

Why Lebanon remodelers lose consults they should win

  1. 01

    Generic ads in a town with a strong identity

    Lebanon's downtown has its own master plan and the Golden Lamb, established in 1803. An ad that could run in any suburb says little to an East End homeowner.

  2. 02

    Long decisions, short follow-up

    A project that may need design work and architectural review takes time to decide. One follow-up call will not keep you in the running.

Keeping a Lebanon project alive through a long decision

A historic-district remodel can sit between consult and contract for a long time. This video shows each lead as a card moving from new to proposal to won or lost, with follow-up while the homeowner thinks.

  • One card per homeowner, with its source
  • Automatic follow-up at each stage
  • A clear view of every open proposal
CRM pipeline: every lead tracked from first call to won job

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.

Does your site prove you know the overlay district?

Hidden historic experience is the costliest gap for a Lebanon firm. Our free written audit looks at your site, profile and ads the way a homeowner in a historic district would and lists what is missing.

A historic district is a marketing advantage, if you say so

Some remodelers treat historic review as a hurdle to keep quiet about. For a design-build firm it is the opposite: a homeowner in Floraville or on North Broadway wants a company that will not get the project stuck in review or make the house look wrong.

So show it. A short video of an exterior project that matched the original, with your designer explaining the review, says more than claims can.

Lebanon remodeler marketing FAQ

Do remodeling projects in Lebanon's historic areas need architectural review?

Projects in the historic districts can. Lebanon adopted an Architectural Review Overlay District in 1996 covering its historic areas, and the city's Planning & Development department handles architectural review there, along with zoning and variances.

Who handles permits for an addition in Lebanon, Ohio?

The City of Lebanon issues the zoning permit for additions, patio enclosures and accessory structures, and its permits page sends building inspection questions to Warren County. Replacing an existing fence, shed, deck or pool also needs a new zoning permit.

How long should a remodeler follow up with a homeowner who has not booked?

For as long as the project is still alive, which for a kitchen or whole-home remodel can be months. Reply within minutes first, then send a planned run of texts, emails and calls, each with something useful such as a new project video, while the homeowner saves and compares.

What should a remodeler measure instead of lead count?

Booked design consults by source, and what each one cost. A form from someone pricing a vanity swap is not the same as a consult with a family planning a full kitchen. We give every source its own tracked number and form, then report consults booked, cost per consult and, where your systems allow, which sources turn into signed projects.

What is in the free remodeler marketing audit?

A written review of how homeowners find you and what happens when they try to book a consult: your search and map presence, your ads, your website on a phone and your follow-up. AI does the digging, Manny checks every finding. You get practical recommendations ranked by impact, and the audit is yours whether or not we ever work together.
