A Great Company Held Back by Cookie-Cutter Marketing
Comfort One Air Conditioning, a family-owned HVAC company founded in 2012 by Tapani and Jessica Ojalehto, had been serving the Scottsdale area with exceptional customer service and technical expertise. Despite their commitment to quality work, they struggled with:
Zero Ownership
Their previous agency “rented” them a website for $12,000 a year with no asset ownership.
Unpredictable Lead Flow
The feast-or-famine cycle made staffing and growth planning nearly impossible.
Invisible Online Presence
No local map pack rankings meant losing business to competitors despite superior service.
VC-Funded Competition
Battling large companies with massive budgets driving up PPC and LSA costs.
"We were with a big box marketing firm before and they did not have our best interest in mind. Some of the meta titles and descriptions were for a company in Texas. The reps were not responsive and not helpful."
Tapani Ojalehto, Owner, Comfort One Air Conditioning
