You Just Acquired a Trades Business.
Here’s How to Turn It Into a Cash-Flowing Machine — Without Running the Marketing Yourself.

One of my clients, Mason, took over an auto repair shop with no online presence, no systems, and no predictable customer flow. Twelve months later, his revenue is up 73%. He gets 6–8 new customers every single week — on autopilot. He’s already closing his next deal. 

That’s what marketing infrastructure does when it’s built right. 

Find out exactly where your newly acquired business is leaking revenue — and what to fix first. Results in one week. 

You’re Good at Acquiring Businesses.
The Marketing Infrastructure Is a Different Problem. 

You close deals fast. You know what a business is worth and how to improve it operationally. But most of the trades businesses you’re acquiring have the same marketing problem: 

  • No online presence — or a broken one that’s actively hurting them 
  • No system to generate consistent new customers week over week 
  • No one on-site with the bandwidth to fix it — including you 
  • Previous vendors who took the money and delivered nothing measurable 
  • A competitor down the street who somehow keeps getting busier

You know what’s broken.
You just don’t have time to fix it yourself. 
That’s exactly where I come in.

I Build the Marketing Infrastructure So You Don’t Have To.

I’m Elizabeth Marks. I specialize in building done-for-you marketing systems for trades businesses — auto repair, HVAC, plumbing, and similar shops — owned by operators who are acquiring and scaling. 

My process starts with a Marketing Clarity Audit: a comprehensive review of your business’s entire online presence that shows you exactly where revenue is leaking and what to fix first. $500. One week. No fluff — just data and a clear action plan. 

Most clients move into a full marketing infrastructure engagement from there. That’s where we build the system that makes your business predictably generate new customers — without your daily involvement.

TWO WAYS TO WORK WITH ME

Step 1: Marketing Clarity Audit — $500

A comprehensive review of your business’s entire online presence. I show you exactly where revenue is leaking and what to fix first — with a prioritized action plan, not vague recommendations. Completed in one week. This is where every engagement begins because it eliminates guesswork and ensures every dollar you invest after this is going in the right direction.  

Step 2: Marketing Infrastructure — Starting at $2,500/month 

Ongoing, done-for-you marketing management that makes your acquired business feel coherent, professional, and converting — without your daily presence. Priced based on your specific situation following the audit. This is the system that turns your business into a predictable revenue engine. 

The Result That Speaks For Itself.

“Mason’s Story: From Zero Marketing Infrastructure to 73% Revenue Growth in 12 Months” 

When Mason took over his auto repair shop, the marketing was a disaster. No coherent online presence. No review strategy. No system to capture or convert new customers. The business was running on reputation alone — and that wasn’t enough. 

We started with the audit. Then we built the infrastructure: Google presence, review system, lead capture, and a consistent customer generation engine. 

Twelve months later:

  • Revenue up 73% year over year
  • 6–8 new customers arriving every week on a predictable, systemized basis
  • Mason is no longer involved in marketing decisions day-to-day
  • He’s already looking at his next acquisition — because this one runs without him

That is what your next acquisition can look like.

This Is For You If:

  • You own 1–7 businesses and are actively acquiring your next one
  • You just signed an LOI or closed on a trades business and the marketing is a mess
  • You’re in Pace Morby’s SubTo or Owner’s Club, and similar acquisitions communities
  • You’ve been burned by marketing vendors before and need someone who starts with data, not promises
  • You want to hand this off completely and have it run without you
  • You speak in ROI, multiples, and revenue outcomes — not feelings
