Christian Olson

You will talk to me, Christian. I set up Montana contractors from Clinton, Arkansas, with 9 years getting local businesses found on Google.

The leaks costing Montana contractors jobsFive places a job slips away between a homeowner's search in Billings or Missoula and your callback, in the order they happen.

Both hands on the shingles in July, the month NOAA logs the most Montana hail reports. Anyone who calls him right now gets voicemail.
  1. They search and don't find you

    What it costs youMontana had 6,766 construction businesses in 2023, 4,106 of them specialty trade contractors. (Census Bureau, 2023) A homeowner in Billings searching for your trade 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 that isn't named there isn't on their list.

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

  2. They check your Google profile and pass you over

    What it costs youNOAA's storm records put the most Montana hail reports in Yellowstone, Fergus and Cascade counties. (NOAA Storm Events) Homeowners there compare Google profiles before they call a roofer, and a thin one with old hours and a handful of reviews gets passed over.

    The fixI optimize your Google Business Profile and get review requests going, so customers in Billings, Missoula and the towns between leave the reviews they keep promising.

  3. They open your website and can't book

    What it costs youA brochure site gets a quick look and no call. Montana has required a state construction contractor license since January 1, 2026, and a homeowner who can't find yours or the towns you serve keeps looking. (Montana Department of Labor and Industry)

    The fixA contractor website built to book: your services, the Montana towns you serve, your state license, your number and a way to book the estimate on every page.

  4. They call and get voicemail

    What it costs youNOAA logged 190 hail reports in Montana in 2025, most in July, June and August. (NOAA Storm Events) Those are the weeks you're up on a roof or out on a job site, away from the phone. 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 during hail season, 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 youMontana winters bring weather of their own: NOAA logged 757 winter storm, heavy snow, blizzard and ice storm entries over 2023-2025, most in February, January and March. (NOAA Storm Events) When calls ring your cell, texts land on another phone and forms sit in an inbox nobody checks, 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.

The same Billings new-roof job, with me and without me

What Montana contractors get for $997 a monthThe seven pieces behind that Billings 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 Montana, whether that's Billings, Missoula or Great Falls.

  • 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 361 hail reports in Montana over 2023-2025, and the largest stone measured 4 inches. (NOAA Storm Events) A homeowner with a damaged roof checks Google profiles before calling, 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 Montana homeowners what you do, which towns you cover and the state license you hold, 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

Montana's Department of Labor and Industry has required a construction contractor license of all contractors, roofers included, since January 1, 2026. Registrations active on December 31, 2025 became licenses, and independent contractors with no employees on jobs under $2,500 are exempt. Electricians and plumbers hold their own state licenses from the State Electrical Board and the Board of Plumbers. Your site shows the one you hold. (Montana Department of Labor and Industry)

Your phone, answered and texted back

When nobody picks up in the middle of hail season, 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 hail call from Yellowstone County or a form from Missoula. 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.

  • 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 Montana 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 Montana locations, then book the 15-minute call. We go over your service area, whether it's one town or a stretch of the state, 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 Montana towns you work 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.

One plan for Montana contractors: $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 roofer with one address in Billings and another in Great Falls 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 plumber in Missoula to a general contractor with crews in Billings.

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.

  • 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.

Montana 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 Montana contractors remotely, along with contractors across the US, using the system on this page: roofers, HVAC and plumbing companies, electricians, remodelers, concrete and landscaping crews, up to general contractors and construction companies.

You won't be handed to an account manager. 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 Montana contractors' businesses. Even a referral in Great Falls looks you up on Google before calling, and that's the part I fix.

I set up contractors next door too, in Idaho, Wyoming and North Dakota.

Questions Montana contractors ask before the call

Do you work with contractors anywhere in Montana?

Yes, anywhere in the state.

Christian Olson works from Clinton, Arkansas, and sets up Montana contractors remotely, from Billings and Missoula to Great Falls, 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 Montana?

$997 a month per location, no setup fee.

Christian Olson charges Montana contractors the same single plan as everywhere else: $997 a month per location and per trade, with the rate locked for life. Texts, call minutes, emails and AI use are billed at cost as you use them, in addition to the $997.

Can my website show my Montana contractor license?

Yes.

Christian Olson puts your Montana construction contractor license, or your electrical or plumbing license, on your website. Since January 1, 2026, the Department of Labor and Industry requires that license of all contractors, roofers included, except independent contractors with no employees on jobs under $2,500.

Can you cover my whole Montana service area?

Yes, with more locations.

Christian Olson adds a location for each part of Montana you want to reach, each with its own address and its own plan at your locked rate. One location reaches about 15 miles, so a business working both Billings and Great Falls needs two.

What happens to my calls during hail season?

Every one gets answered.

Christian Olson sets up an AI receptionist that answers when you can't, takes the job details, texts the caller back and can book the estimate. NOAA logged 190 hail reports in Montana in 2025, most in July, June and August.

Am I locked into a contract?

No.

Christian Olson works with no contract, so a Montana contractor risks one month at most. You stay because it's working.

Do you guarantee rankings in Billings or Missoula?

No.

Christian Olson guarantees your system goes live within 7 days of your approval, never a ranking. The Google Maps SEO runs every month, and your monthly report shows your map rank in the Montana towns you serve.

Who actually does the work on my account?

Christian himself.

Christian Olson is one person working from Clinton, Arkansas, not an agency with account managers. He builds your setup himself, and when you need something, you text him at (501) 365-6845 and get his answer.
