What your site does on a customer's phone

Here is what a customer finds when they open your site on a phone.

Call and Text buttons

  • Your phone number on every page, and a button to call you on phones.

  • When they scroll, a Call button follows them down the page.

  • If your number takes texts, a Text button sits beside it.

  • 97 to 100

    Phone speed score out of 100 for one test site we built, the middle of three runs.

  • 0

    Files your site loads from another company's server.

We measured these on a test site we built. We have no customer sites to measure yet.

Who we build for

Each kind of business has its own must-haves.

  • Plumbing, drains, emergency heating and cooling, locksmiths.

    The site has a section on when you answer calls. We don't build it without that.

  • Roofing, siding, windows, concrete, remodeling.

    The site shows your price ranges and your past jobs. We don't build it without them, or without your license where your state requires one.

  • Auto repair, collision, marine service.

    The site covers your diagnostic fee, your warranty and your techs. We don't build it without them.

  • Flooring, furniture, kitchen and bath, lighting.

    The site shows your hours and the brands you carry.

  • Bookkeeping.

    The site names who does the work and posts your fees.

How it works

  1. We build your site first.

    We will put together a real site for your business and may publish it on a customerready.app address, before anyone talks to you.

  2. You look at the work.

    The site says you have not reviewed it, and search engines are told not to list it. You can look at it before you pay, and nothing is charged. If you ask us to take it down, we aim to do that within 5 business days of confirming the request is from your business.

  3. You check the facts.

    Before you pay, you check each fact your site is built from.

    If one is wrong, you tell us.

    Plans stay closed while your report is open.

  4. You pay, if you want it.

    Pick a plan. You enter your card on Stripe's checkout page. Nothing is charged until you confirm there.

  5. After you pay.

    If we published your site before you paid, the note saying you have not reviewed it comes off. Nothing new goes public until you look it over and confirm.

What you get the day you pay

  • A website written from what is public about your business.

    No made-up reviews, awards or licenses.

  • Your home page is checked for reading level and length before you see it.

  • Hosting, with a secure connection.

    You never touch a server.

What we never own

Site
The pages and the writing. Every photo you send us stays yours.
Google profile
Stays yours. We never ask to own it.

Checked before you see it

What our check turns away

  • A roofing site with no price ranges.

  • An auto shop site built without the shop's diagnostic fee.

  • A home page longer than we allow for that kind of business.

  • Stock lines like “quality workmanship” and “years of experience.”

A site that fails any of these is not shown to you.

If you already have a website

Your Google listing and your website are two different things

Your Google Business Profile.

Your Google Business Profile keeps its reviews and its history when the manager changes, because the profile belongs to your business and not to whoever works on it. That is Google's rule.

No plan includes work on your profile today.

Your website.

We build the site and host it.

Pricing questions

What are you still building?
Google Business Profile updates, review request emails, a before and after gallery, an instant reply to quote requests, a seasonal offer banner, texts for new requests, call tracking, a text back to missed callers, two-way texting, drafted review replies and sites for more than one location. None of these is included in any plan today. We add an item to a plan only once it works.
Do I see the site before I pay?
Yes. We build your site first. You look at it and check its facts before you choose a plan.
Is there a setup fee or a contract?
No setup fee and no contract. Plans are month to month.

What we will not do

  • We will not promise you a ranking or a number of calls.

  • We will not say we work for Google. We are not a Google partner.

  • We will not show someone else's photo as your work, your crew or your shop.

  • We will not call you to sell you something.

  • We will not charge you to leave.

Who is behind it

I'm Brendan, and I run CustomerReady at The North Consulting. We will not make up a fact about your business.

Questions to ask anyone selling you a website

  • Can I see the price without a sales call?

    Yes. It's on this page.

Questions

Do you work for Google?

No. We are not a Google partner, and we can't promise you a spot on Google.

Will this get me more calls?

We can't promise that, and we won't guess. We have no customer results to show you yet.

Who owns the domain?

If we register a domain for you, it goes in your name, not ours. You can check that at the registrar yourself. If you bring your own, it stays where it is. We never hold it. The site and the writing are yours too, and every photo you send us stays yours.

What if I cancel?

Cancel from your account. No fee, no notice period.

The site and the writing are yours. Ask and we export them to you.

Will I lose my rankings if I switch to you?

Moving a site can cost you search position, and anybody who promises you otherwise is guessing. Today, signing up moves nothing. We don't change anything on your current site, and search engines are told not to list the site we build for you. If you are mid-term with someone else, the cheapest month to switch is usually the month your term ends.

How much of my time does it take?

You look at your site and tell us if a fact is wrong. We haven't timed that with a real owner yet, so we won't give you a number.

I have more than one location, or I run an agency. Can I use this?

One plan covers one location today, and no plan covers more than one yet. Each business signs up for itself, from its own private link.

Can I read the terms first?

Yes. The terms and the privacy page are linked at the bottom of this page.
