Where Geek Powered excels

Honest timelines and a collaborative process. Geek Powered doesn't promise overnight results, and that honesty is actually refreshing in contractor marketing. Their 6-12 month model sets realistic expectations for SEO-driven campaigns, and the cross-team approach means your strategist actually talks to your designer. For foundation repair companies who've been burned by agencies promising "page 1 in 30 days," the transparent timeline builds trust through honesty, not hype.

And if you're a foundation repair contractor specifically, that trade depth counts for something. Geek Powered knows the seasonal surges, the buyer hesitations, and the search patterns that generalist agencies miss entirely.

Where Fervor differs as a Geek Powered alternative

Geek Powered and Fervor don't actually compete. Geek Powered gets more people to your site. SEO, PPC, paid channels. We focus on what happens after they land. So if you're pulling 2,000 visits a month but your phone only rings 9 times, that's not a traffic problem. That's a conversion problem. And conversion is the only thing we work on.

(Quick way to tell which problem you have: check your Google Analytics. If your monthly sessions are under 500, you probably need traffic. If they're over 1,000 and you're still not getting calls, you need conversion work.)

Revenue per visitor

Your traffic has a dollar value. But most agencies won't calculate it because the number isn't always flattering. We measure what each visitor is actually worth in booked revenue, then rank your fixes by which ones move that number fastest.

The Site Inspection

Before we recommend a single change, we score your site across 6 categories against 64 national contractor brands. You get a Fervor Grade™ and a ranked fix list. No sales call required. And no money changes hands.

Conversion-first design

Booked by Design™ doesn't start with a homepage mockup. It starts with conversion benchmarks from 18 trades we've already scored. So layout decisions, CTA placement, form position, the order your services appear on the page, even which photo goes above the fold — all of it is backed by what actually gets contractors booked.

Choosing the right agency for your business

Choose Geek Powered if:

  • You need an agency that only works with foundation repair contractors
  • You want foundation repair-specific keyword strategy and campaign management
  • You value collaborative cross-team approach with 6-12 month engagement model — realistic timelines, no quick-fix promises

Choose Fervor if:

  • Your site gets traffic but your close rate from web leads sits under 5%
  • You want to know exactly which pages are bleeding leads right now
  • You need a website rebuilt around revenue per visitor, not just how it looks
  • You want a Canada-based agency that works with US and Canadian contractors

One more thing. These aren't competing solutions. If your site converts well but needs more eyeballs, Geek Powered can drive that traffic. If you're getting the traffic but it's not turning into booked jobs, that's our side of the equation. Some contractors review both options and end up working with both.
