Let me be straight with you: Small Screen Producer knows the pool and spa world. A 30+ person team out of Texas, led by Pam Vinje, with a five-pillar approach spanning websites, social, SEO, PPC, reputation, and — their signature — video storytelling. For a pool builder who wants a polished brand across every channel, that breadth is genuinely valuable.
But here’s the thing about breadth: it spreads your budget across channels with very different payback clocks. Video and social build a brand over quarters. Meanwhile, somewhere in your city tonight, a homeowner is typing ‘pool leak repair near me’ — and either your ad answers, or your competitor’s does. Also worth noting: no pricing is published, so you’ll learn the number on a sales call.
We put everything on the fastest, highest-intent channel and hand you the keys: your Google Ads account, your landing page, your call tracking numbers — built in your name, live in ~48 hours after setup, managed daily by an AI trained on 8,600+ real coaching sessions with me personally overseeing it. $699, $1,499, or $2,450 per month — public, month-to-month, 7-day full money-back guarantee. And no, we don’t do video, social posting, or website redesigns. If those matter more to you than owned lead flow, they may be your pick.

I’ve watched this movie for 15 years. A pool service owner invests in the full package — beautiful site, drone footage, social calendar, the works. It all looks fantastic. Nine months later he asks me why the phone isn’t ringing more. I ask one question: ‘When someone in your city searches pool repair near me, who shows up first?’ Silence. All that budget, and the single highest-intent moment in his market belonged to someone else.
Brand matters — I’ll never tell you it doesn’t. But brand is the second dollar. The first dollar goes to the moment of need: the homeowner with a green pool, a leaking heater, a broken pump, searching Google right now with a credit card in reach. Winning that moment is a discipline of its own — keywords, bids, landing page, call tracking, watched daily.
That’s the whole LSM product. Built in your accounts, in your name: your Google Ads account, your landing page, your call tracking numbers. Our AI manages bids every day, I personally oversee it, and you approve everything before launch — live in ~48 hours after setup. 15–40 qualified calls per month typical in a medium market with a $1,000 ad budget — run the free estimate for your market. Fund the moment of need first. Make the brand film with the profits.

Not across the board — and I’d rather tell you now than on a call. They do video production, social, websites, and reputation work; we do none of that. We do one thing deep: a Google Ads lead machine you own, managed daily. If your pool company’s bigger need is brand video and multi-channel presence, they may be your pick. If it’s qualified calls this month, that’s us.
They don’t publish pricing — you’ll get figures on a consultation, so ask about minimum terms and what you keep if you leave. Our pricing is public: $699, $1,499, or $2,450 per month, month-to-month, no setup fee, with a 7-day full money-back guarantee.
Yes — pool service, repair, and remodel are strong fits because the buying moment is a search: ‘pool repair near me’, ‘pool leak detection’, ‘green pool cleanup’. Same machine we’ve run for 15 years across 500+ local service businesses. 15–40 qualified calls per month typical in a medium market with a $1,000 ad budget — run the free estimate for your market.
Honest answer: if the phone isn’t ringing enough, Google Ads first — it captures demand that already exists in your city tonight. Video builds preference over time and makes everything else convert a little better, but it can’t manufacture a homeowner with a broken pump. Win the searches first, then reinvest in brand. We’ll tell you the same thing on the call even though we don’t sell video.
