Running a small contracting business in Nanaimo isn’t easy. You’re quoting, on-site, ordering, invoicing, and still trying to figure out how to bring in steady leads. Most contractors we talk to say the same thing:
Their website is outdated or non-existent.
They aren’t showing up on Google.
They rely on word of mouth, but referrals have slowed down.
That’s where we come in.
We'll define your goals, and translate it into a marketing action plan.
We set up your website, Google Business Profile, and core marketing tools.
We add SEO and ads to make sure locals find you first.
Price Starts at $2050
When Nanaimo-based Hollywood Tree Co. came to us, they were relying on word-of-mouth and a barebones site. Within 3 months of the new build, they were booking regular jobs through the website. Now, they’re so popular that they’re booking 4 months in advance.
The process to produce such an amazing result was efficient and detailed.
I am highly recommending Good Earth Marketing.

Just like any other trade, there’s a lot to know with marketing. You can do many parts yourself, but each part takes time and errors to learn. We build it right, fast.
We were construction and service workers before we were marketers. We get you the work so you can just focus on getting it done.
We were born and raised here. We know that digital marketing techniques for North Nanaimo and South Nanaimo are different. What works well in Lantzville might not work in Ladysmith.
We match the right message with the right place.
Most 1-page Foundation websites are ready within 3–4 weeks once we have your info and photos. Multi-page Framing and Finishing packages usually take 6–8 weeks, since they include more content, SEO, and testing. We’ll set clear timelines upfront so you know exactly when your site will be live.
It depends on your package. With Foundation, you’ll look professional and be findable online. With Framing, you’ll start to rank locally and get organic calls. With Finishing, you’ll see a steady stream of leads from both SEO and ads. Contractors typically start getting new inquiries within the first 1–3 months.
No. All packages are one-time builds. If you want ongoing SEO or ad management, we offer flexible monthly plans — but there are no locked-in contracts.
For Nanaimo trades businesses, we recommend at least $300–600 per month to start. That’s usually enough to get meaningful results without overspending. Larger service areas or highly competitive trades (like plumbing) may benefit from higher budgets.
Foundation → Best for new contractors who need a professional presence on a budget.
Framing → Best if you want to start ranking locally and building traffic long-term.
Finishing → Best if you’re ready to scale up, run ads, and dominate local searches.
If you’re unsure, we’ll recommend the best fit during your free consultation.
That’s fine. We can rebuild or improve your existing site, keeping your domain and email intact. Often, an update is faster and more cost-effective than starting over.
