How It Works
How we turn a search into a booked job.
It starts with one customer looking for what you do. Here is what happens without a system, what happens with one, and where you start.
The problem
A customer went looking for you today. They hired someone else.
They search
A homeowner nearby looks up the exact service you offer. Your competitor sits at the top. You are further down, if they scroll that far.
They land on your site
They click through. It loads slowly, it looks dated, and it does not say whether you even serve their town.
They look for a reason to trust you
No reviews on the page. No photos of real work. Nothing that tells them to choose you over the other tabs open on their phone.
They call anyway
This is the moment you almost had them. Your website did just enough.
It rings out
You are on a job. It goes to voicemail. They do not leave a message, because almost no one does.
Nothing follows
No text back. No callback. No record that they were ever there.
They hire your competitor
They call the next name on the list. That company picks up, and books the job.
And it compounds
Your competitor asks that customer for a review. That is why they were on top when the next homeowner searched.
Every one of these gets treated as a separate problem. So you buy a separate solution for each one.
They are not separate problems. They are one broken front end.
Your website is not talking to your phone.
Your phone is not talking to your follow up.
Nothing is talking to your reviews.
And none of it is talking to you.
You have not been buying the wrong solutions. You have been buying pieces of a system nobody ever connected.
The solution
One connected system for the front of your business.
It is not software you log into and figure out. It is a system we install, connect, and manage for you: your website, your lead follow up, and your reviews, all working as one.
Most local businesses end up with five vendors and zero systems. A website from one company. A chat widget from another. A review app somebody recommended. Nothing connected, and nobody accountable for what happens between the search and the booked job.
We do not replace the software that runs your jobs.
Auto8 is your front end CRM. It owns every inbound lead from first contact until the job is booked. The moment it is booked, that job moves into the platform you already use to run it. Housecall Pro, Jobber, ServiceTitan, Buildertrend, whatever you are on. We handle the connection.
You keep the system that runs your business. We run the system that fills it.
The same customer, with your system installed.
Search
They find you, because you are built to be found.
Site visit
They get an answer to all four questions in about six seconds.
Lead captured
Form, call, text, chat, Google, Facebook. All of it lands in one place.
Engaged in seconds
They get a real response, day or night, and it moves to text.
Qualified
Name, mobile, service, address, what they actually need.
Nurtured
They go quiet after the estimate. The follow up happens anyway.
Job booked
It hands off to the platform that runs your operations.
Review earned
The ask goes out automatically, at the right moment.
Their review is the reason the next person picks you instead of the competitor.

Questions owners ask.
Is there a setup fee?
No. There is no setup fee, ever, on anything.
Am I locked into a contract?
No. Everything is month to month. If you ever leave, you take your website and your domain with you.
Do I have to add the accelerators?
No. Start with the OS and add local SEO or paid ads whenever you are ready. Most Partners run the OS and local SEO together.
Do you replace the software I use to run jobs?
No. Auto8 is your front end CRM. When a job is booked, it moves into the platform you already use to run it. We handle the connection.
What is included at $298?
Auto8 OS: the Smart Website System, the Lead Management System, the Reputation and Trust System, the Auto8 front end CRM, and the handoff into your operations platform.
Can I get an exclusive market?
Yes. Protected Market is an optional upgrade, so we never work with a direct competitor offering the same core service near you. It is one business per market, priced to your market, and we cover it on the call.
Do I own my website?
Yes. Your website lives in your own GitHub, and you own your domain. If you ever leave, you take both with you.
Can you guarantee leads or rankings?
No. We optimize your digital presence to improve the likelihood that search engines and AI-powered platforms understand, trust, and recommend your business. Anyone guaranteeing placement is selling something.
How does Growth Accelerator pricing work?
It is $748 per month plus ad spend, with a $500 per month minimum ad spend. It runs on top of Auto8 OS.
Not sure where to start?
That is exactly what the call is for. We will map where you are losing jobs and recommend the right place to begin.
