Marine Contractors - Qualified Inquiries Without the Chaos

Aquatic SEO helps established marine contractors generate consistent, trackable inbound demand using the Marine Demand Control System. We don’t chase “more traffic.” We build a pipeline of qualified service inquiries you can schedule, quote, and fulfill.

Who Is This For?

Built for established contractors who need control — not more noise

This is a fit if you:

Sell real service work (not “quick favors”) and want more of the right jobs
Have a defined service area and want to enforce it
Can answer calls or return them same day during the week
Want fewer low-margin distractions and more project-level work

This is not a fit if you:

Want volume without qualification
Can’t respond to inbound inquiries consistently
Take every job regardless of fit (no job mix control)

The Contractor Reality

Marine contracting isn’t retail. Demand has to fit your capacity.

If inbound demand is uncontrolled, “more leads” can make your operation worse:

The phone rings for the wrong jobs (or the wrong marinas)
You get buried in tire-kickers and low-margin requests
Your crew gets whiplash — overbooked one week, light the next
You’re forced into reactive scheduling instead of planned production

The fix isn’t more visibility. It’s controlled demand.

What We Build

A demand system that protects job mix, margins, and schedule stability

The Marine Demand Control System is designed to:

Capture high-intent buyers actively searching for your services
Filter out low-fit requests before they hit your phone
Prove performance with tracking you can audit
Compound your market position so you’re not dependent on one channel

How Demand Control Works (for Marine Contractors)

1) Active Buyer Capture (PPC-first)

We start with Google Search because it captures demand at the moment it already exists.

High-intent service + location targeting
Call-first routing when urgency matters
Tight service-area controls (so you’re not quoting outside your radius)

What you get: more calls and quote requests from people ready to hire.

2) Demand Filtering + Job Mix Control

We shape inbound demand toward the work you actually want.

Approved service lists (you choose what to prioritize)
Negative targeting to reduce wrong-service and price-only calls
Landing pages that pre-qualify scope, location, and timeline

What you get: fewer wasted conversations and better average job value.

3) Proof + Performance Visibility

No guessing. No “trust us” reporting.

Call tracking with recordings
Form tracking with qualification rules
Weekly reporting tied to qualified inquiries — not vanity metrics

What you get: clear accountability and clean decision-making.

4) Market Compounding (SEO + local authority)

Once demand is predictable, we build durability.

Local SEO to win map visibility in your service area
Service-cluster content built around real buyer intent
CRO improvements to raise conversion rate and lower cost per inquiry

What you get: lower blended cost per inquiry and less paid dependency over time.

What We Typically Prioritize for Contractors

We don’t optimize for “more calls.” We optimize for better work.

What Is Prioritized:

Every contractor is different, but Demand Control usually prioritizes:

Project-based installs and upgrades (systems, electronics, mechanical, electrical)
Repair work with clear scope and scheduling windows
Higher-value service packages that create repeat customers

What Is Filtered:

Our system is designed to filter out:

Out-of-area inquiries
Wrong-service requests
“Price-only” calls with no vessel details, scope, or timeline
Low-margin jobs that clog up the calendar

The Guarantee

40 qualified inquiries in 90 days (for qualified contractor engagements)

For contractors that qualify for our PPC-first Demand Control program, we guarantee 40 qualified inbound inquiries within 90 days — or we continue working at no additional cost until you get them (capped at 60 days).

Qualified inquiry definitions and eligibility requirements are agreed in writing and enforced through tracking.

What counts as a “qualified inquiry”?

We define this in writing before launch and enforce it through tracking. In general, a qualified inquiry is a tracked call or form submission from someone in your service area with legitimate intent for an approved service.

We already have a website and some SEO — can this still work?

Yes. Many contractors have “SEO” but no demand control: no tracking, no filtering, and no predictable inbound. We’ll evaluate what’s working, fix what’s not, and build a system you can rely on.

Do you work with one man operations?

Sometimes — but only if you have the capacity and responsiveness to handle inbound demand consistently. If you’re booked out indefinitely or can’t return calls same day, it’s usually not a good fit.
