Christian Olson

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

The leaks costing Rhode Island contractors jobsThe five places a Rhode Island job slips away, in the order they happen, from a homeowner's search in Providence or Cranston to your callback.

Both hands on the shingles. A homeowner in Warwick who calls right now gets voicemail.

  1. They search and don't find you

    What it costs youRhode Island had 3,528 construction businesses in 2023, 2,277 of them specialty trade contractors, and a homeowner in Providence or Cranston calls the few at the top of the map. (Census Bureau, 2023) 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 in the Rhode Island towns 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 climate summary for Rhode Island lists coastal storms, winter storms and thunderstorms, often with flooding, among the state's common extreme weather. (NOAA State Climate Summary) After one, homeowners compare Google profiles before they call, and a thin profile with old hours and a handful of reviews gets passed over.

    The fixI optimize your Google Business Profile and get review requests going, so the Rhode Island homeowners you’ve already helped 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. A homeowner who can't find your state registration or the towns you serve leaves to find a contractor who makes booking easy.

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

  4. They call and get voicemail

    What it costs youThe Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30. (National Hurricane Center) A storm that tracks up the coast brings a run of calls while you're on a ladder. 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 Rhode Island 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 youWinter brings its own calls. NOAA logged 14 winter storm, heavy snow, blizzard and ice storm entries in Rhode Island over 2023-2025, most in February and January. (NOAA Storm Events) When calls hit your cell, texts another phone and forms 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 Providence new-roof job, with me and without me

At 9:31 PM, a homeowner in Providence, Rhode Island's biggest city at 195,310 people (Census Bureau, 2025), searches "roofers near me" for a quote on a new roof. Here's how that job goes with me and without me, step by step.

What Rhode Island contractors get for $997 a monthThe seven pieces behind that Providence 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 Rhode Island, from Providence to Cranston and Warwick.

  • 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

Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a Rhode Island homeowner sees of your business. I set it up right and keep it current, so it shows 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 Rhode Island homeowners what you do, which towns you cover and the state registration 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

Rhode Island requires every contractor and subcontractor to register with the Contractors' Registration and Licensing Board. Commercial roofers also need the board's roofing license, unless the work is shingles only, and electricians and plumbers are licensed by the Department of Labor and Training. Your site shows the one you hold. (Contractors’ Registration and Licensing Board)

Your phone, answered and texted back

When nobody picks up while you're on a roof in Cranston, 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 Providence or a form from Warwick. 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.

  • Ads aimed at homeowners in your service area
  • An ad landing page with your number and a book button
  • Every call and form from an ad lands on your lead list
  • Ad calls you can't get to are answered and texted back

Social media that shows your work

Plenty of Rhode Island homeowners look you up on social media before they call. A page with this month's jobs on it tells a homeowner in Warwick or Providence 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 Rhode Island contractors: live in 7 daysThree steps from picking your trade to your system running, done by phone and text with me in Clinton.

  1. Start now

    Pick your trade and your Rhode Island locations, then book the 15-minute call. We go over your service area, from one city to the towns around it, 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 Rhode Island 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

One plan for Rhode Island: $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 contractor who runs both roofing and siding from one Warwick address runs two.

Run your own numbers

$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.

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 Cranston to a general contractor with crews in Providence.

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

  • 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

Rhode Island contractors deal with me, not an agency

I'm Christian Olson. I work from Clinton, Arkansas, and set up Rhode Island contractors by phone and text, with 9 years spent helping local businesses get found on Google.

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.

The system on this page runs for contractors in Rhode Island and across the US: roofers, HVAC and plumbing companies, electricians, remodelers, concrete and landscaping crews, up to general contractors and construction companies.

A Rhode Island contractor who signs up gets me, not 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 got most Rhode Island contractors where they are. A neighbor's referral in Cranston still gets looked up on Google before the call, and that's the part I fix.

Questions Rhode Island contractors ask before the call

Do you work with contractors anywhere in Rhode Island?

Christian Olson works from Clinton, Arkansas, and sets up Rhode Island contractors by phone and text, from Providence, Cranston and Warwick, the state's three biggest cities in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimates, to every other town. Each location is one address and one trade.

How much does contractor marketing cost in Rhode Island?

$997 a month per location, no setup fee.

Can my website show my Rhode Island contractor registration?

Yes.

Christian Olson puts your Contractors' Registration and Licensing Board registration on your website, or your Department of Labor and Training license if you're an electrician or plumber. Rhode Island requires every contractor and subcontractor to register, and commercial roofers also need the board's roofing license.

Can you cover my whole Rhode Island service area?

Yes, with more locations.

Christian Olson covers more of Rhode Island by adding locations, each with its own address and its own plan at your locked rate. One location reaches about 15 miles, so you add one for each part of the state where you want to show up.

What happens to my calls during storm season?

They get answered.

The Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, and NOAA logged 14 winter storm, heavy snow, blizzard and ice storm entries in Rhode Island over 2023-2025. When calls come in faster than you can pick up, the AI receptionist Christian Olson sets up answers, takes the job details and texts the caller back.

Am I locked into a contract?

No.

Christian Olson works with no contract, so the most you can ever risk is one month. You stay because it's working.

Do you guarantee rankings in Providence?

No.

Christian Olson guarantees your system goes live in 7 days, never a ranking. His 9 years of Google work put the odds well in your favor, the Google Maps SEO runs every month, and your monthly report shows your map rank in the towns you serve.

Who will I actually talk to?

Christian himself, from Clinton, Arkansas.

Christian Olson is one person, not an agency with account managers, and he has no Rhode Island office. He builds your setup himself, and when you need something, you text him at (501) 365-6845 and he's the one who answers.
