More Work for dry-cleaners: Without Spending More on Ads
Most dry-cleaners we speak to have been burned by an agency before. We get it. Here's why this is different and why we're cheaper than the last ones who didn't deliver.

Why It's Different for Dry Cleaners
Dry Cleaners have a structural advantage in local search that they almost never use: their work is location-specific, their reviews are on Google, and their customers Google before calling. Combine those three and you should be unbeatable. We make sure you actually are.
What customers Google when they need a dry-cleaner: variations of stain removal, leather and suede care, and curtain and upholstery cleaning. The dry-cleaners that target those exact phrases on their Google profile are the ones whose phones do not stop ringing.
What We Actually Do
When we sit down with dry-cleaners and look at why the calls have stopped, this is what we usually find. The dry-cleaner business has reviews, has skill, but is invisible on Google for the right local searches. We replace four or five things you would normally pay separately for: web designer, SEO agency, social media person, review-request app, missed-call system. One package, one price, one person to talk to.
Dry Cleaners typically have between 30-100 direct competitors fighting for the same Google ranking. We get your dry-cleaner listing into the top three by working on the things Google's local algorithm rewards: relevance, prominence, and citation consistency.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
Talking to dry-cleaners who have come through our door, the same story comes up every time. Dry Cleaners are doing the work properly but the customers searching online cannot find them. Most owners we speak to have tried something. A website built by a friend. A Yell listing. A few hundred quid on Facebook ads. None of it worked because none of it fixed the actual problem: Google doesn't know they exist.
The Clients We Already Run
For dry-cleaners specifically, the picture looks like this. Most dry-cleaners we speak to are losing work to two or three local competitors with better-ranked Google listings. The first paying client signed up in March. The seventh signed up in early April. We are growing slowly because every client gets the same level of attention, and that ceiling moves up as we add more capacity.

If you're already convinced, the get-started button skips the audit and takes you straight to onboarding. If you're not, take the audit first. Either way is fine.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO covers your Google Business Profile (run weekly with fresh posts and photos), your website (on-page optimisation for the queries that bring calls), and your citations (consistent across the 30+ directories Google checks). Three pillars, all maintained continuously.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Costs nothing extra to run, included in the monthly price. Most clients save the cost of the whole package within the first fortnight from this single feature.
Review Automation
Most owners undercount how much reviews matter for ranking. Every additional review is a small boost to your local pack position, especially when the review mentions the service or area. The automation makes that compound silently in the background.
What It Costs
Standard price: £199 setup, £199 a month after. Less than £6.70 a day. The website is built into the setup fee and you own it outright. You can leave after three months.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
£199 once + £199/month. The website is yours to keep even if you cancel. The minimum is three months so we have time to actually move the needle.
What do you actually do every month?
Plain English: we make your business show up first when people Google for what you do nearby, we make sure no calls get lost when you cannot answer, and we show you exactly what changed every month.
Do I need to do anything technical?
Not at all. We build, host, and run everything. If you can send a text message, you can use this service. We send you a monthly report and message you if we need anything from your end.
What if I already have a website?
Yes, that is normal. Most of our clients had a previous site (often built by an agency or a friend that did not work out). We bring it across, keep your domain, and rebuild whatever needs rebuilding.
How long until I see results?
Realistically: small wins from week one (more missed calls recovered, a few more reviews). Medium wins by month one (Google profile starting to climb). Bigger wins by month three (organic search rankings improving). Anyone promising overnight results is selling something.
Can I cancel?
You can cancel after the third month. No 30-day notice, no exit charge. The website is yours to keep. We just stop the management work.
