Christian Olson

You will talk to me, Christian. I work from Clinton, Arkansas, and I’ve spent 9 years getting local businesses found on Google.

The leaks costing Maine contractors jobsThe five places a Maine job gets away, in the order they happen, from a homeowner's search in Portland or Lewiston to your callback.

Up on a roof on a Maine summer day with both hands busy. A call that comes in now goes to voicemail.

  1. They search and don't find you

    What it costs youMaine had 5,826 construction businesses in 2023, and 3,712 of them were specialty trade contractors. (Census Bureau, 2023) A homeowner in Portland or Bangor calls one of the few at the top of the map. More homeowners now ask ChatGPT or Google's AI answers who to call, and a business those answers don't name isn't on the list.

    The fixGoogle Maps SEO on your profile and your site, every month, to lift you in local search in the Maine towns you actually work. The same work helps get your business named in AI answers, and the monthly report shows your map rank.

  2. They check your Google profile and pass you over

    What it costs youAfter a nor'easter, Maine homeowners compare Google profiles before they call anyone. NOAA's climate summary for Maine describes nor'easters as cold-season coastal storms with snow, sleet or freezing rain, strong winds and coastal flooding. (NOAA State Climate Summary) A thin profile with old hours and a few reviews gets skipped.

    The fixI optimize your Google Business Profile and start a review request after each job, so customers from Portland to Bangor actually post the reviews they promise.

  3. They open your website and can't book

    What it costs youA brochure site gets a quick look and no call. So does a site that hides the towns you serve or, for an electrician, plumber or heating fuel tech, the state license Maine requires.

    The fixA contractor website built to book: your services, the Maine towns you serve, your license when your trade carries one, your number and a way to book the estimate on every page.

  4. They call and get voicemail

    What it costs youMaine's hot weeks and most of its hail land in summer. NOAA logged 63 heat and excessive heat entries in Maine over 2023-2025, most in August and June, and most hail reports came in August, July and June. (NOAA Storm Events) You spend those days up a ladder while the phone rings in the truck. In a 2025 CallRail survey of 1,000 US consumers, 82% said they'd call a competitor if a business didn't answer.

    The fixWhen you can't pick up on a hot August job, your phone gets answered. The caller's name, address and job get taken down, they get a text back, and the estimate can be booked.

  5. The lead gets lost before you follow up

    What it costs youMaine winters bring their own run of calls. NOAA logged 380 winter storm, heavy snow, blizzard and ice storm entries in Maine over 2023-2025, most in January, March and February. (NOAA Storm Events) With calls on your cell, texts on another phone and forms in an inbox nobody checks, those leads slip through.

    The fixOne lead list for every call, text and form, with follow-ups that go out for you. It works with the software you already use.

What Maine contractors get for $997 a monthThe seven pieces behind that Portland new-roof job. The first five follow the homeowner from the search to the booked estimate, and ads and social media bring more homeowners in. I set them up and run them as one system.

Google Maps ranking, and showing up in AI answers

Google Maps SEO on your profile and your site, every month, so homeowners find you when they search your trade in your part of Maine, whether that's around Portland, Lewiston or Bangor.

  • Local SEO aimed at the keyword homeowners type, like "roofer near me"
  • Search engine optimization for your profile and your site together
  • Your map rank in the monthly report
  • Helps get you named when people ask ChatGPT or Google's AI answers

Nobody honest can promise a ranking, and I don't. What I bring is 9 years of experience and a full set of tools, and that puts the odds well in your favor. You see where you stand every month.

Your Google Business Profile and reviews

NOAA logged 36 hail reports in Maine over 2023-2025, most in Penobscot, Aroostook and Piscataquis counties, the largest stone 2 inches across. (NOAA Storm Events) After hail or a winter storm, homeowners check Google profiles before they call, so I set yours up right and keep it current with the work you actually do.

  • Services, service area, hours and contact information filled in
  • Categories that match your trade
  • Photos of your completed jobs, which build trust before the call
  • Review requests that make it easy for happy customers to leave a Google review

A contractor website that books

Not a brochure. A fast site that tells Maine homeowners what you do and which towns you cover, then gets them to book the estimate.

  • Your services and service area, spelled out
  • Your number and a book button on every page
  • Every form lands on your lead list
  • Live within 7 days of your approval

Maine licenses electricians, plumbers and heating fuel work through state boards under the Maine Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation. General contractors and roofers have no state license, so municipal permit rules apply. On home jobs over $3,000, the Home Construction Contracts Act requires a written contract and caps the down payment at one third (Maine Attorney General). Your site shows the license you hold.

Your phone, answered and texted back

When nobody picks up because you're on a roof in August, the call doesn't die in voicemail. It gets answered, the job details get written down, and the caller gets a text from your business.

  • Answers the calls you can't get to
  • Takes the caller's name, address and what the job is
  • Texts the caller back so they don't move on
  • Can book the estimate for you
  • Missed-call text back catches anyone who hangs up first

One lead list for every call, text and form

Every lead lands in one place, with the job and where it came from, whether it's a call from Bangor after a snowstorm or a form from Portland. Follow-ups go out for you, so nobody falls through the cracks while you're on a job.

  • Calls, texts and website forms on one list
  • Follow-ups for leads that go quiet
  • Open the live list on your phone any time
  • A monthly report: calls, texts, leads and map rank

There's no new software to switch to. The lead list works alongside the programs you already run your business on.

Social media that shows your work

Plenty of homeowners in Maine look you up on social media before they call. Recent jobs on your page tell someone in Lewiston or Portland that you're busy, still in business, and doing good work.

  • Your social media pages set up and kept current
  • Posts of your finished jobs, with photos
  • A social hub page for your business

How it works for Maine contractors: live in 7 daysThree steps from picking your trade to your system running. I set it all up remotely from Clinton, Arkansas.

  1. Start now

    Pick your trade and your Maine locations, then book the 15-minute call. We go over your service area and what's costing you calls. If it's a fit, you approve and I start.

  2. Quick onboarding

    A quick onboarding form and a short call: your services, your hours, the Maine towns you cover and how you want calls handled. I build the rest.

  3. Calls in 48 hours, all of it in 7 days

    Your calls get answered and texted back within 48 hours. Everything else goes live within 7 days of your approval, or you get your money back.

Start now Book a 15-min call What the 7-day guarantee covers

Maine contractors get one plan: $997 a month per location.

Everything on this page, in one price you can see before the call. No setup fee, no contract, and the rate you sign at is locked for life.

The price is $997 a month per location and per trade. One location is one address and one trade, with about a 15-mile reach. Each extra location or trade is its own plan at your locked rate, so a plumber with one shop in Portland and another in Bangor runs two.

Run your own numbers

Filled in with $9,611, the average new roof (Angi, 2026). Type what one of your jobs is worth.

$9,611a month in extra jobs, for $997. That's about 10 times what you pay.

What it costs youMiss one job a month, and that's $115,332 a year going to the next contractor.

Built free when you start

You pay nothing for these builds. Each figure is what the build is worth.

  • Website build$2,500
  • Ad landing page$750
  • Google booking page$497
  • Social hub page$297
  • All four builds, free$4,044

Your AI receptionist setup is free too, valued at $1,497.

You won't get a menu of digital marketing add-ons or a sales call that starts at one number and ends at another. Christian Olson has one plan for every contractor business, from a one-truck electrician in Bangor to a general contractor with crews around Portland.

Usage note: texts, call minutes, emails and AI use are billed at cost as you use them, in addition to the $997.

If you cancel, the locked rate is gone. Come back later and you pay the current rate.

The guarantees, and what each one covers

  • Calls answered in 48 hours

    Your calls get answered and texted back within 48 hours, while the rest of your system is still being built.

  • Live in 7 days or your money back

    Your system and website go live within 7 days of your approval, or you get your money back. This covers going live. It doesn't cover rankings, and nobody honest can promise you those.

  • No contract

    You stay because it's working. The most you can ever risk is one month.

  • No setup fee

    You pay the monthly price and nothing to get started.

  • Price locked for life

    The rate you sign up at stays the same for as long as you're a client.

  • A free month for each referral

    One free month for each contractor you send who signs and stays 30 days. There's no cap.

Maine contractors deal with me, not a marketing agency

I'm Christian Olson. I've spent 9 years helping local businesses get found on Google, and I work from Clinton, Arkansas.

I'm a contractor too. I own a pressure washing, handyman and painting business, so I know the pains contractors deal with every day. I live them myself.

I set up contractors in Maine and across the US remotely, with the system on this page: roofers, HVAC and plumbing companies, electricians, remodelers, concrete and landscaping crews, up to general contractors and construction companies.

I'm not a contractor marketing agency with account managers. I build your setup myself. When you need something, you text me, and I'm the one who answers. I don't pitch marketing strategies you can't check: you see your calls, texts, leads and map rank every month.

Word-of-mouth built most contractor businesses in Maine. Plenty of those referrals in Lewiston or Bangor still look you up on Google before they call, and that's the part I fix.

What Maine contractors ask before the call

Do you work with contractors anywhere in Maine?

Yes, anywhere in the state.

Christian Olson works from Clinton, Arkansas, and sets up Maine contractors remotely, from Portland to Lewiston and Bangor, the state's three biggest cities in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimates. Each location is one address and one trade, at $997 a month.

How much does contractor marketing cost in Maine?

$997 a month per location, no setup fee.

Christian Olson charges Maine contractors the same single plan: $997 a month per location and per trade, locked for life. Texts, call minutes, emails and AI use are billed at cost as you use them, on top of the $997.

Can my website show my Maine license?

Yes, when your trade has one.

Christian Olson puts your state license on your website. Maine licenses electricians, plumbers and heating fuel work through its Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation. General contractors and roofers have no state license there, so municipal permit rules apply.

Can you cover my whole Maine service area?

Yes, with more locations.

Christian Olson covers more of Maine by adding locations, each with its own address and its own plan at your locked rate. One location reaches about 15 miles, so a contractor working both Portland and Bangor runs two.

What happens to my calls in winter storm season?

They get answered.

NOAA logged 380 winter storm, heavy snow, blizzard and ice storm entries in Maine over 2023-2025, most in January, March and February. When calls come faster than you can pick up, the AI receptionist Christian Olson sets up answers, takes the job details, texts the caller back and can book the estimate.

Am I locked into a contract?

No.

There's no contract with Christian Olson, so a Maine contractor never risks more than one month. You stay only because it's working.

Do you guarantee rankings in Portland or Bangor?

No.

Christian Olson guarantees your system goes live within 7 days, never a ranking. The Google Maps SEO runs every month, and your monthly report shows your map rank in the Maine towns you serve, so you always know where you stand.

Who actually does the work on my account?

Christian himself, from Clinton, Arkansas.

Christian Olson is one person, not an agency, and he serves Maine contractors remotely. He builds your setup himself, and when you need something, you text him at (501) 365-6845 and he answers.
