Case Study
Tex runs one of Columbus's best asphalt sealing operations. He was buried on page 3 of Google, losing jobs to competitors who were nowhere near as good.
The Challenge
4,000+ monthly Columbus asphalt searches, zero first-page presence. Competitors with inferior work were capturing every job Tex should have been winning — not because they were better, but because they were easier to find.
Full SEO setup including Google Business Profile optimization and location pages targeting every Columbus service area.
Few reviews, incomplete information, photos from years ago. The GBP was invisible to anyone searching for asphalt work near them — the first thing every searcher sees was effectively a blank slate.
Complete Google Business Profile rebuild, review collection automation, consistent posting schedule.
Template design that undermined Tex's actual scale and experience. Nothing on the site communicated his 15+ years in the trade or the size of his operation — visitors couldn't tell him apart from a one-truck operation.
Brand identity and site rebuilt to communicate Tex's 15+ years and fleet-sized operation.
60% of visitors were on mobile phones. Bounce rate north of 80%. The site was losing more than half its traffic before a single word was read — on the device most homeowners use to find contractors.
Mobile-first build, fast load times, tap-to-call prominent on every page.
Quote requests came in by email, responses took days. Competitors called back in minutes. NRX was losing jobs to slower businesses on paper alone — the work was never even compared.
Automated lead response via CRM — prospects hear from NRX within 60 seconds of submitting.
The Scope
Logo, wordmark, and brand system built around Tex's reputation for toughness and reliability — a look that communicates scale before a single word is read.
BrandEvery page built from zero. Homepage, services, location pages, contact — structured around how Columbus property owners search for and hire asphalt contractors.
Web DesignComplete Google Business Profile rebuild with updated photography, review collection automation, and a consistent posting schedule that keeps NRX visible in the local pack.

PerformanceThe Result
Tex went from page 3 to the map pack. Leads now arrive pre-qualified and respond within 60 seconds. More jobs, better jobs, less time chasing.
