Working Derby as a letting-agent
If you work Derby and the postcodes around it (DE), the customer base is wide but the visible listings are narrow. There are hundreds of letting-agents registered in the area but only a handful turn up on the map. We make sure you are in that handful.
In Derby, the catchment for letting-agents includes Chaddesden, Darley Abbey, Littleover, and the wider DE area. Calls for property maintenance management and legal compliance make up the bulk of what comes through the door.
What We Do
For letting-agents working Derby, the picture looks like this. Most letting-agents in Derby are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. Run by one person who actually knows what he is doing, not an agency where you get passed between five account managers. Website, Google profile, SEO, reviews, missed-call recovery. All done, all reported on monthly.
Letting Agents working Derby get a slightly different setup than other trades. We focus the keyword targeting on the urgent letting-agent searches (the ones with words like "property maintenance management" and "tenant finding"). We structure the letting-agent website so the phone number is always visible.
Bread-and-butter jobs for letting-agents: rent collection, legal compliance, property maintenance management. The customers searching for a letting-agent are usually landlords with rental properties, property investors, accidental landlords, and they Google before they call.
Why Letting Agents Lose Calls Around Here
In Derby, the letting-agents who keep their diary full are not the cheapest or the best. They are the ones whose Google listing turns up first when somebody searches for letting-agent services in Derby. We get your letting-agent listing into that group. Word of mouth still works, but it's slower than it used to be. The fastest-growing local businesses are the ones combining word of mouth with showing up on Google. Owners who rely on referrals alone are going backwards.
Real Clients We Already Run
Letting Agents in Derby are competing with 100-200 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy letting-agents from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. We are small on purpose. Seven paying clients right now: a mix of plumbers, heating engineers, paving and bathroom fitters across England and Wales. Every one of them we know by first name. Every one of them got a real result inside the first month.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Local SEO at its core is three things: a Google Business Profile that gets updated weekly, a website that loads fast and has the right keywords on it, and citations across the directories Google trusts. We do all three properly and continuously.
Missed-Call Text-Back
When the phone rings and you can't pick up, the customer's phone gets a text within 10 seconds. The text is short and human: a hello, an apology, a question about what they need. Most reply within five minutes. About a third book in.
Review Automation
The reviews bit is fully automated: a text goes out after each job with a direct link to your Google review page. Customers tap once and they are typing the review. About one in three actually leaves one, which is roughly five times the industry average.
What It Costs
£199 setup. £199 a month. That covers the website, the Google profile, the reviews, the SEO, the missed-call texts, and a monthly report. Less than £6.70 a day.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
£199 setup, £199 per month. No surprise fees, no annual contract. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month.
What do you actually do every month?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No tech skills needed. We built this for trades and small business owners who do not want to mess with WordPress or Wix or Google Search Console. We do all of that. You run your business.
What if I already have a website?
No problem. We can keep your existing site and improve it, or rebuild it from scratch, your call. Your domain stays the same. Your old URLs keep working. Nothing breaks for your existing customers.
How long until I see results?
We cannot promise specific numbers because nobody honest can. What we can promise is that the work gets done every week, you get a real monthly report, and most clients see their first new enquiry from Google within four to six weeks.
Can I cancel?
Three months in, then cancel any time. The website is yours forever. We hand over the domain and the codebase if you want them, or we leave the site running and just stop the management work.
