5 to 10 hours back per week Done for you, not learn-it-yourself Built by a 20-year operations veteran

Built for restaurants, salons, dentists, contractors, auto shops, retail, realtors, brokers, coaches, and the rest of the local owners doing too much themselves.

The story

11:47 PM

A potential customer searches your business on Google.

11:48 PM

Your old website loads slowly. Mobile menu doesn't tap right.

11:49 PM

They tap back to Google. Pick the next result.

Tomorrow

You never knew they were there.

Most local businesses lose ~30% of their inbound interest after hours.

We close that gap. A website that converts, an AI receptionist that picks up when the lights are off, and a follow-up system that does not let leads cool. All of it built and run by us, configured for your business.

What we actually run

This is what "done for you" looks like

Most local AI advice tells you to learn another tool. We do it the other way. We design the system, build it, and run it. You don't have to learn a new tool if you don't want to. But if you prefer to learn it and tune it yourself, we can enable that too.

Calls

We answer the calls you miss.

Our AI Receptionist picks up day or night, books appointments, captures lead details, and texts your team. Most owners recover 10 to 30 percent more revenue from calls they would have lost.

Visibility

We get you found on Google.

Optimized Google Business Profile, local SEO, and the listings that matter for your category. The point is foot traffic and inbound calls from people ready to buy.

Reputation

We build your reputation on autopilot.

Reviews engine that asks happy customers at the right moment, catches unhappy ones before they post publicly, and gives you a steady stream of fresh 5-star reviews.

Speed

We follow up with leads in under 5 minutes.

Most leads pick the business that responds first. We make sure that's you. Missed-call text-back, automated lead intake, and human-feeling follow-up sequences.

Implementation is $1K to $3K one time. We run it for you starting at $99 to $499 a month, depending on the system and how hands-on you want us to be. Or take the keys and run it yourself if you'd rather.

The fastest way to start

A custom 5 to 10 hour-per-week plan in 4 days. For $497.

Most owners do not know where their time is actually going. The Time-Back Audit fixes that in three steps.

1. Meet Grace, your audit consultant.

Once you book, you call Grace at your convenience, day or night. She is our highly trained AI audit consultant, custom built to extract exactly where we can save you the most time and money. About 30 minutes on the phone.

2. Get your custom report 24 hours before our call.

We turn your conversation with Grace into a tailored 8-page report: top time drains, the 4 quick wins to capture this week, the bigger projects worth doing later, and a real ROI in hours and dollars. Delivered at least 24 hours before our live call so you actually have time to read it.

3. We walk it together on Google Meet.

30 to 60 minute working session. We validate the quick wins, talk through the bigger opportunities, and put ballpark pricing on anything worth tackling. No sales pitch. Just a real plan.

About

Why David built this

I spent 20+ years inside large companies building customer experience and operations systems for call centers, contact centers, and enterprise programs. PMP-certified, Director-level, the works. The thing I learned, over and over: customers don't care about your tech stack. They care that you answered, that you followed up, and that you remembered them.

helplocalbiz exists because the owner economy is being out-armed. Big franchises and corporate brands have systems, automation, and 24/7 response. The local barber, the family restaurant, the husband-and-wife HVAC shop usually do not. They lose calls after 5pm, miss reviews because no one asks, and burn evenings on the admin no one sees. We bring the same operational discipline the big guys use, sized and priced for the businesses that need it most. The same systems, built for you, run by us.

How we do it

Audit first. Build second. Run it for you.

  1. 01

    Time-Back Audit ($497)

    30 minutes with Grace, our AI audit consultant. Custom 8-page report in your inbox 24 hours before our live call. We finish the call with ballpark pricing on real next steps. No pitch.

  2. 02

    Scope and price

    Based on the audit, we recommend either a packaged solution (Receptionist, GBP Optimization, Reviews Engine, Lead Pipeline, Social, Website) or a custom engagement (Process Redesign, Automation Build, Knowledge System, Custom Workflows). Fixed scope, real prices, no surprises.

  3. 03

    Build and launch

    We build in defined sprints. You review at clear checkpoints. You always know what's happening and when. Most packaged solutions go live in 2 to 4 weeks.

  4. 04

    We run it for you

    Default is Full Run, where we actively manage, monitor, and tune the system every month while you focus on customers. Or take the keys and run it yourself if you'd rather. Your call.

Behind everything we do is a process called The Always-On System. Six pillars: Foundation, Capture, Response, Nurture, Reputation, Optimization. The architecture stays the same across every customer; the configuration is unique to your business.

I respond within one business day. Your info stays private. Most owners get faster results from the $497 Time-Back Audit or the free 2-minute quiz, but if you'd rather start here, I'm happy to.
