Business Automation for Service Businesses | North & Nova
Rochester, New York

Your business shouldn’t stop when you step away.

Most agencies sell you more leads and call it done. We build the marketing and the operations underneath: the website, the profile, the reviews, the follow-up, and one screen where all of it lands. If customers find you, contact you, book you and pay you, this is built for you.

The Real Problem

You didn’t buy six problems. You bought six tools.

Ninety seconds on where the work disappears, and what closes the gaps.

Book a call

Free, 15 minutes, and you keep the map either way.

How It Works

Three steps. No mystery.

1

We map it

A free 15-minute call. You tell us how work moves through your business today. We show you where it leaks and where it stalls.

2

We build it

We install the systems: calls answered, quotes followed up, jobs scheduled, invoices chased, reviews requested. Built around how you already work.

3

You step back

The business runs on the system instead of running on you. You take a day off and the phone still gets answered.

Local SEO & Reputation Management

Brand and reputation

Before anyone calls you, they check. They look at the map result, the star rating, and whether the last review was from this year or four years ago. This pillar is about making that check go your way, in Rochester, Syracuse, the Finger Lakes, or wherever you take work.

How reputation gets built
Google Business ProfileFilled out properly, kept current, showing up in the map pack for the work you want.
Local SEOPages built for the towns you serve, so you turn up when somebody two towns over searches.
Directory listingsYour name, address, and phone matching everywhere they appear. Mismatches quietly cost you rank.
Review managementCustomers get asked after the job, every job, and responses go out instead of piling up.
Social managementEvery account posted from one screen on a schedule that actually holds.
Photo and job proofReal work from real jobs, going up where customers and Google both see it.

CRM, Lead Follow-Up & Booking

Revenue systems

This is the part almost nobody sells you. What happens between someone reaching out and someone paying you. It’s where most service businesses lose the work, and it’s the reason more leads on their own rarely change the number at the bottom.

Website Design for Service Businesses

Smart website

A site that gets you called, not admired. Loads fast on a phone in a truck with two bars, says what you do and where you do it, and feeds every contact into the same place as everything else. It’s the front door to the other two pillars, not a separate project.

What makes it smart
Built for phones firstMost of your customers find you on a phone. That’s the version we design first.
Loads fastSlow pages lose people before they read a word, and Google notices too.
Service and town pagesA real page for each thing you do and each place you do it.
Every contact capturedCall, text, form, or chat, it all lands in the same inbox and gets a response.
Schema and structureMarked up so Google and AI search both understand what you do and where.
Yours to keepWe’ll tell you what transfers with you before you sign anything.

The Step-Away Test

Could you take Friday off?

Answer honestly. Nobody’s watching.

If you miss a call today, does anything text them back?

Does every quote get a follow-up without you remembering?

Could your team book a job start to finish without asking you anything?

That’s the gap the free review finds.

Every “no” is a place your business needs you when it shouldn’t. Fifteen minutes, and you’ll know exactly where to start.

Real Shops, Real Numbers

Running this right now.

Every number below came off that client’s own dashboard, and every one carries the window it was pulled from. Nothing here is a projection, and nothing counts work that happened before we showed up. These three happen to be trades because that is where we started. The gaps we closed for them are the same ones we find in a clinic, a shop or an office.

“A missed call used to mean the customer just drove to the next shop. Now they get a text back before they leave the parking lot, and we book the work.”

“We were doing good work but barely showing up in the towns we wanted it in. They fixed the stuff under the hood, and now we turn up where the jobs are.”

“My online setup finally looks like the quality we put on the ground, and the calls coming in show people noticed.”

Who We Build For

Owner-run businesses, 5 to 25 people.

The common thread isn’t the industry and it isn’t the zip code. It’s an owner who has become the part everything waits on. We’re based in Rochester and most of our work runs across Upstate New York, from the Finger Lakes to Syracuse, and we build outside the region when the fit is right. Below is where we’ve built the most so far, not a list of who we’ll take.

Straight Answers

What owners ask us.

What does North & Nova actually do?
We build and run the marketing and operations systems a business needs to keep working when the owner isn’t pushing it. That’s the website, the Google Business Profile, local SEO and directory listings, review management, social posting, and the follow-up that runs from first contact through payment. It all sits in one place instead of six.
Who is this for?
Owner-run businesses, usually 5 to 25 people. If customers find you, contact you, book something, and pay you, the shape is the same and only the wording changes. If everything still routes through you, you’re who we built this for.
How is this different from a marketing agency?
Agencies sell you more leads and leave you to handle them. We build what happens after the phone rings: the answering, the quoting, the scheduling, the getting paid. More leads into a business that already drops calls just produces more dropped calls.
Do I have to replace everything I’m already using?
No. Some of what you have works fine and should stay. We look at what you’re running on the free call and tell you straight which pieces are worth keeping. Replacing something that already works wastes your money and our time.
How long before it’s actually running?
The first pieces go live in a few weeks, not months. We build in phases and finish each one before starting the next, because a half-built system is worse than none. It looks finished, so you stop watching it, and that’s when things start going missing.
How does pricing work?
The review is free. Monthly runs $597, $997, or $1,997 depending on how much of the system you’re using. The build is quoted separately once we know what you actually need, and it’s due before we start. You see the whole thing in writing before anything gets built.
Do you only work with businesses in Rochester?
No. We’re based in Rochester and a lot of our work is across Upstate New York, but we build for businesses outside the region too. Being local helps for the map pack and for meeting in person, and neither one is required.
What if I want out?
Then you’re out. We’d rather you leave than stay somewhere you don’t want to be. Ask about what transfers with you on the call and we’ll give you a straight answer before you sign anything.
