You have the licence, the ute and the ABN. You do not have a website, a Google profile with reviews, or two years of search history, and every job you win right now comes from someone you already know. A Sent Your Way site for your trade in your area has the pages, the ranking work and the history done. For $50 a week ex GST it names you as its recommended local business and sends every enquiry it gets your way. No lock-in. No setup fee.
for your trade, in your area.
on my site, which already ranks.
You, and nobody else.
What you get on day one.
- A live site for your trade in your area, already built and already in Google and Bing, with your business name, phone number and licence number on it.
- Every enquiry from it. One business per trade per area, and that business is you. Nobody else in your trade gets them.
- A tap-to-call button on mobile, so customers ring you straight from the page. Form enquiries are passed on to you, spam already filtered out.
- Suburb pages written for the suburbs you work, from Census facts and local detail, so the site reads as local because it is.
- The site’s own record shown to you before you pay a dollar: how often it has appeared in search and what it has produced so far.
- Cancel any time. Your details come off and you keep every enquiry you were sent.
The order I would do things in.
Three steps, cheapest first. The $50 a week is step two, not the whole plan.
Set up your own Google Business Profile today
It is free, it is in your name, and the reviews you earn on it are yours forever. The Sent Your Way site cannot have one: it is a referral site, not a shopfront, and Google’s rules say so. I will send you the five-minute setup in the area check reply.
Take the enquiries while your name is new
The site for your trade and area is already ranking for the suburb searches your profile cannot reach yet. $50 a week ex GST, agreed in writing, and the enquiries come to your phone while your own profile earns its first reviews.
Build a site you own when the work is steady
When you are ready for a website of your own, I build one you own outright, as a site you own outright. Keep the Sent Your Way enquiries alongside it or drop them. No lock-in either way.
What $50 a week is for a new business.
About $217 a month, or $2,600 a year, ex GST. Measured against the profit on one typical job, not its price, because that is the honest comparison.
| Trade | A typical job, ex GST | What the profit on one job covers |
|---|---|---|
| Blocked drain, standard clear | $291 | About half a month of the fee |
| Hot water, gas storage supply and install | $2,000 | About three months |
| Concrete driveway, 40 m² plain | $4,091 | About five months |
| Roof restoration, tile | $6,818 | About eight or nine months |

A new business has one other number to think about: the first enquiry usually arrives before the first review, and a job done well for a stranger is where the reviews come from. The site is the stranger.
Straight answers for new businesses.
- Can I start with no reviews and no website?
- Yes. That is who this page is for. The site already has its pages, its search history and its place in Google. Your name, number and licence number go on it and the enquiries come to you. Reviews and your own website are things you build in your own name alongside it, and I will tell you how in the area check reply.
- Do I need a licence first?
- Where your trade needs one, yes. The site shows your licence number because customers and the law expect it, and I check it on the public register before you go live. If your trade has no licence scheme, your ABN and your insurance details are what I ask for.
- Is this my website?
- No, and that is the honest part. The site, the domain and the referral service stay with my company, which is what the .au rules require and why the price is $50 a week rather than a build fee. It names you as its recommended local business and sends you every enquiry. When you want a website of your own, I can build one you own outright, and the enquiries keep coming while you want them.
- What does it cost to stop?
- Nothing. There is no setup fee and no lock-in. Your details come off, the site stays up, and it is offered to the next business in your trade in that area.
- How many enquiries will a new business get?
- I cannot promise a number and nobody honestly can. Many sites are only weeks old. Before you pay anything I show you the site for your area and its own record: how often it has appeared in Google and what it has produced so far.
- Can I take two areas while I am small?
- Yes, one site per trade per area, at $50 a week ex GST each, and you can drop one at any time. Most new businesses start with the area they live in.
