Marketing retainers
Three retainers. One rule: you see what every dollar produced.
Monthly marketing for service businesses — SEO, content, and Google Business Profile work, with a verified report every 30 days. Below: what the same engine has already produced for clients running on it, and what each tier includes. Every number on this page is measured from our own systems or labeled as the owner's report.

What this work has already produced.
On retainer · Residential painting
Pro 1 Painters
- leads from the website last month
- 100+
- closed from those leads, by the owner's report
- $140K+
Both months on retainer have been the best months in the company's history, revenue up 30% month over month. Last month the website produced over 100 leads, and the owner reports more than $140,000 in work closed from them.
Lead counts from the site's tracked forms and calls. Revenue and best-month figures are the owner's own report.
On retainer · HVAC
Air Solutions
- monthly revenue, up from $45K — owner's report
- $95K
- the new level has held, and counting
- 3 mos
Air Solutions had no working web form before we rebuilt the site — the new one caught a real after-hours AC-repair call its opening weekend. Since the rebuild, the owner reports monthly revenue has more than doubled, from $45,000 to $95,000, and it has stayed there for three straight months.
The opening-weekend lead is counted from our delivery logs. Revenue figures are the owner's own report, not our measurement.
New brand launch · Plumbing
Streamlined Plumbing
- from launch to the first customer call
- 26 hrs
- of 413 pages indexed by Google within ~3 weeks
- 406
A brand-new company with a brand-new domain. The site went live on a Saturday evening; the first customer called through it the next afternoon. Within three weeks Google had indexed 406 of its 413 pages, and the owner estimates about $30,000 of work booked in the first 30 days.
Indexing counted per-URL from Google's own inspection data; the first call from the site's call log. The $30,000 is the owner's estimate, not our measurement.
Brand-new business · HVAC
ACExperts
- monthly revenue built from zero — owner's report
- $35K
- pages indexed on Google by week 7
- 215
Launched as a brand-new business on a domain that didn't exist before. By week seven it ranked #1 in the local map pack in Robertsdale and Lillian against incumbents with decades of reviews, drawing ~44,800 Google impressions — and the owner has grown the company from nothing to $35,000 a month partnered with us.
Indexing and impressions from Google Search Console; map-pack positions checked per city. The revenue figure is the owner's own report, not our measurement.
Hiring engine · Industrial contractor
Alliance Mechanical Solutions
- distinct skilled-trades applicants in five weeks
- 40
- hires so far, as reported by the client
- 7
The same engine, pointed at recruiting instead of customers: a careers funnel with Google job postings and screening. Every application was counted from delivery logs and every résumé read — 39 of 45 submissions arrived with one attached, and the client reports seven hires made from the pipeline so far.
Applicant counts from delivery logs, collapsed to one row per person. Hires are the client's report to us, not independently verified.
The tiers
Pick the pace. Every tier runs on the same engine.
The difference between tiers is throughput — how much content ships, how many pages get built, how much authority gets acquired each month. The reporting, the tooling, and the standard of proof are identical at every level.

How every Digital Gravity client runs.
The monthly verified report
Every 30 days you see exactly what the retainer produced — leads counted from delivery logs and call tracking, pages indexed, rankings moved. Counted, dated, and traced to source. Not estimates, and not our claims about our own work.
The 90-day checkpoint
At day 90 we sit down with the reports and decide together: scale up, resize the scope, or walk away. The checkpoint exists so the retainer has to keep earning its place — you're never locked into a number that stopped making sense.
Your numbers, your math
You know your average ticket and your close rate; we don't pretend to. Run the arithmetic yourself: what one additional closed job a month is worth against the retainer. We'll hand you the verified lead counts to run it with — the conclusions stay yours.
We don't guarantee rankings, lead volumes, or revenue — nobody honestly can. What we guarantee is that you'll see what the work produced, measured and labeled, every single month. Client results above are real clients; figures marked as owner reports are theirs, not our measurements.
