Let me give them their due first: Restoration Digital Marketing is genuinely niche. Founded by people from the restoration world, 8+ years in, serving water and fire restoration companies exclusively, with a one-client-per-territory promise so they’re never running your competitor’s ads against you. If you’ve been burned by generalists who don’t know mitigation from mold, that positioning speaks to you for a reason.
But strip away the positioning and look at the mechanics. Pricing: not published. Contract terms: not published. Who owns the website, the campaigns, the tracking when you leave: not published. Their pitch leans heavily on SEO, Google Maps, and organic visibility — which is real value, but it’s slow value, and it lives on assets they build and control unless your contract says otherwise.
Here’s our counter. Water damage calls are won on high-intent search, today, in an account with your name on it. LSM builds that machine in your Google Ads account with your landing page and your tracking numbers — live in about 48 hours after setup, $699 to $2,450 per month, public, month-to-month. Territory exclusivity is nice. Owning the territory machine is better.

I’ve spent 15 years around local service marketing, and restoration owners get pitched the same beautiful story more than anyone: we’ll build your organic presence, rank your site, own your Google Maps — and the leads will be ‘free.’ It’s not a lie. It’s just a 9-to-18-month project, in a trade where this week’s storm decides this month’s revenue.
And there’s a second layer nobody says out loud: when an agency builds your rankings on a site they made, hosted where they host it, wired to tracking they control — the ‘free’ leads have a landlord. I’ve watched owners leave an agency and watch their site, their rankings, and their call history stay behind. That’s not a villain story. It’s just the default structure of the industry, and it works very well — for the agency.
We run the opposite play. High-intent Google Ads in your city, built inside your account, pointed at your landing page, tracked on your numbers — approved by you before anything goes live, and live in about 48 hours after setup. The AI manages bids every single day, I personally oversee it. 15–40 qualified calls per month typical in a medium market with a $1,000 ad budget — run the free estimate for your market. Cancel whenever you want. The machine stays with you.

The opposite of an agency. We build it inside your accounts. You own it all.
One city or your whole service area. The free audit tells you exactly what to expect in your market.
Your AI marketing manager builds your Google Ads, call tracking, fraud protection, and landing page — inside your accounts. You approve before a single dollar is spent.
Most clients are live within 48 hours. Your AI optimizes bids and keywords daily — results compound over time.
Built on 8,600+ real LSM coaching sessions. Trained in Lior's exact voice.

Google Ads. Call tracking. Fraud protection. Your landing page. Built inside your accounts, step by step.

Ask it anything, anytime. 8,600+ real LSM coaching answers. Available instantly.
The day you leave an agency, your Google Ads account, tracking numbers, and landing page are gone. You spent $30,000 building their asset.
Impressions. Clicks. CTR. Beautiful PDF every month. But when you ask how many jobs you closed — nobody has a straight answer.
You need answers now. A human account manager you can never reach isn't service — it's a subscription to uncertainty.

I built Local Service Mastery because I watched too many great contractors get burned by agencies — overcharged, locked out, left with nothing. So I flipped the model: your accounts, your data, your asset. We build it. You own it.
Peace,

Not one-for-one. RDM’s program leans on SEO, Google Maps, websites, and social — we don’t do SEO retainers, social posting, or website redesign projects, on purpose. We do the paid-search lead machine, deep, in accounts you own. If long-horizon organic visibility matters more to you than owned lead flow arriving this month, they may be your pick — and if that’s what I hear on the call, I’ll say so.
They don’t publish pricing or contract terms — you get both on a sales call. Before signing, get in writing: the monthly fee, the minimum term, and who keeps the website, rankings, and ad accounts if you leave. Our pricing is on this page: $699, $1,499, or $2,450 per month, month-to-month, no setup fee, with a 7-day full money-back guarantee.
Yes — restoration is core LSM territory. Searches like ‘flood cleanup near me’ are the highest-intent moments in home services, and that’s exactly what we build for: one 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 below.
It’s a fair thing to want — nobody wants their agency feeding their competitor. Here’s our take: when the machine is in your own Google Ads account with your own landing page, the exclusivity question mostly dissolves — your data, your budget, and your page never touch anyone else’s. Ask any agency you’re considering how exclusivity is defined in the contract: by city? by county? by service line? The details matter.
Start with Starter if you want to get your phone ringing in one city and grow from there — one new campaign gets added each month. Go with Growth if you're ready to cover your full service area right away. Pro adds local SEO, Facebook Ads, and weekly coaching with me directly. If you're still not sure, run the free audit — it'll tell you what to expect in your market.
Most clients are live within 48 hours of completing setup. Your LSM AI builds everything, you review and approve, then it goes live. The only exception is if Google requires advanced verification for your category (locksmith, garage door) — that's a direct process between you and Google, and we walk you through it.
Depends on your trade, your city, and your ad budget. The free audit gives you a real estimate pulled directly from Google's own Ads data — not a made-up projection. In a medium-to-large market with a $1,000/month ad budget, most clients get 15–40 qualified calls per month. Run the audit first to see what's realistic in your specific area.
Yes. The Google Ads account, the call tracking numbers, the landing page — all built inside your accounts, in your name. If you ever cancel, you walk away with everything you paid to build. That's not a policy. That's the whole point.
No contract, ever. Every plan is month-to-month. Cancel anytime — if we stop earning your business, you should stop paying.
No problem. You can connect your existing accounts, or we set everything up fresh for you. Your call — you pick during onboarding.
Yes — Google requires advanced verification for locksmith and garage door services before ads can run. We build your campaign and all your keywords, but you'll need to complete that verification with Google directly (we walk you through it). If for any reason you can't complete it, you're covered by our full 7-day refund.
We specialize in home and local services — HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, locksmith, garage door, pest control, carpet cleaning, water damage, tree service, and more. Run the free audit and you'll instantly see if we're a fit.
It's your personal AI marketing manager — trained on 8,600+ real LSM coaching sessions. Sign up and it's ready to go: builds your full campaign setup inside your accounts, reviews everything with you before anything goes live, and stays on 24/7 to answer any question about your campaigns, leads, or marketing strategy. In Lior's exact voice.
If you sign up and decide within 7 days that this isn't right for you — for any reason — you get a full refund. No hoops. We'd rather lose a bad fit early than keep a client who isn't seeing value.
Check your market, pick your plan, or grab 15 minutes with me. Let's get your phone ringing.
