Let me be straight with you: BrandLume walks a walk most agencies only talk. Upfront wholesale prices published like an online store, no long-term contracts, pricing that doesn’t change with your company size, 6,400+ clients plus 400+ agencies buying from them white-label, 96% retention, and 83 reviews on Clutch. In an industry addicted to ‘book a call to hear a number’, that’s genuinely rare, and I respect it.
Here’s the honest catch, and it’s structural, not a scandal: an à-la-carte shop sells you pieces. An SEO package here, a PPC service there, a website, some PR. Somebody has to decide which pieces, in what order, wired together how — and that somebody is you. For a plumbing company owner running crews all day, being your own marketing general contractor is exactly the job you were trying to hire out. Ownership of ad accounts across those services? Not spelled out on the menu — ask.
We sell the opposite: one pre-assembled machine, no menu anxiety. Done-for-you Google Ads in your account, a dedicated landing page, call tracking in your name — designed, launched (~48 hours after setup), and 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 if you truly want to buy marketing piecemeal at wholesale, BrandLume may be your pick — we only build the one machine.

I’ve watched this movie for 15 years: a smart, thrifty HVAC owner discovers he can buy marketing services à la carte at wholesale. He orders an SEO package, a few citations, a logo refresh, later a PPC block. Each piece arrives as promised — the vendor did nothing wrong. A year later he’s spent real money on good parts and still has no machine: the ads point at a homepage that doesn’t convert, no call tracking connects spend to jobs, and nobody — including him — owns the whole picture.
Parts don’t fail. Systems do, when no one assembles them. A lead machine is one system: the keyword, the ad, the landing page, the tracking number, the daily bid decisions — each tuned to the others. Split them across a menu and the tuning is the piece nobody sold you.
So we sell only the assembled system, in YOUR name: your Google Ads account, your dedicated landing page, your call tracking numbers, live in ~48 hours after setup. The AI manages bids daily, I personally oversee every account, and you approve everything before it goes live. 15–40 qualified calls per month typical in a medium market with a $1,000 ad budget — run the free estimate for your market. Buy parts when you know exactly what you’re building. Buy the machine when you need it to run.

Not service-for-service — BrandLume’s menu spans branding, PR, hosting, social, websites, and more, and we do none of those as standalone offerings. We replace one specific purchase: the DIY assembly of PPC + landing page + tracking into a working lead machine. If you want to buy marketing piecemeal at published wholesale prices, they do that honestly. If you want one machine that rings your phone, that’s us.
To their genuine credit, prices are published on their site per service, like a store — no contracts, no size-based markup, with reported minimum projects from around $1,000. Check each service’s price and ask who owns ad accounts for PPC work. LSM is one number: $699, $1,499, or $2,450 per month, everything included, month-to-month, 7-day full money-back guarantee.
That’s all we work with — 15 years, 500+ local service business owners, $20M+ client revenue across HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, and related trades. High-intent Google Search in your city, dedicated landing page, call tracking, daily AI bid management. 15–40 qualified calls per month typical in a medium market with a $1,000 ad budget — run the free estimate for your market.
Per piece, often yes — wholesale menus like BrandLume’s can beat agency retainers on unit price. But total the real build: SEO block + PPC block + website + tracking + your own hours playing coordinator, then ask what it costs when the pieces don’t convert as a system. Done-for-you wins when the assembled machine, not the parts list, is what pays you back.
