The problem

Views don't pay the bills.
The right local people do.

Most local businesses don't have a quality problem. They have a visibility problem. The people who've used you already rate you. Everyone else nearby just hasn't seen enough of you yet, so they go with whoever they've seen most.

01

Posting whenever there's a spare minute

A quick phone clip between jobs, a photo when it's quiet. Nothing planned, nothing scripted, and nothing that shows how good the work actually is.

02

Ads that attract the wrong people

Discount-led ads fill a form with bargain hunters. Lots of leads on paper, very few people who actually book.

03

Nobody following up

Someone comments, follows or messages, and then hears nothing. The interest was there. The system wasn't.

"750k views. ZERO enquiries. Not even one. And then a video hits 900 views aimed at the right people and my phone buzzes."

The Local Takeover System

Everything it takes to own your area,
run for you.

Strategy, shoots, ads, follow-up and reporting, joined up and run by us every month. You stay focused on the work. We make sure your area keeps seeing it.

  1. Before we start

    Know exactly who you're for

    Before a camera comes out, we build three foundation documents with you: Who We Are, Who We Serve and The Strategy. Every script, shoot and ad comes from these, so nothing is guesswork.

  2. Every month

    A month of content in one shoot day

    One shoot day of 4 to 6 hours at your place of work, producing 8 reels and 20 stills. The shoot plan and scripts are written for you, and we coach you on camera until it feels easy.

  3. Local ads

    Seen by the right people, nearby

    We run Meta ads that only show to people near you who could realistically become customers. Month one builds a local audience, month two starts conversations, month three turns them into bookings.

  4. Follow-up

    Every message answered in seconds, day or night

    Most leads go cold because nobody replies quickly enough. We set up a smart assistant on your Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp that replies to every message within seconds, in your tone of voice. It answers their questions, works out what they need, chases the ones who go quiet and books them straight into your diary.

    • Replies 24/7, even at 11pm
    • Sounds like you, not a robot
    • Follows up people who go quiet
    • Books them into your calendar

    You wake up to booked appointments, not a pile of unread messages.

  5. Every month

    Numbers you can actually read

    A clear monthly report and a 45 minute strategy call. What went out, who saw it, what it cost, what came in, and what we're changing next month.

The work

Made for the people down the road

Every video has a job. Introduce you to locals, build trust, or get someone to book. Spin through a few.

Who you'll work with

I'm Jay. A video marketer, not a videographer.

I've had a video do close to a million views and make me £0. I've had one do 900 views and get my phone buzzing.

The difference was never the camera. It's who sees you, and how often.

When people in your area keep seeing you and your brand, with content that's genuinely good, they know, like and trust you before they even need you. So when they do need someone, choosing you feels obvious.

The right fit

Who this works best for, and who it doesn't.

You'll get the most from this if...

  • People love your business once they've used it, and you want more of them to find out
  • Most of your customers come from within a drive of your door
  • You'll show up on camera, even if the thought terrifies you right now
  • You'll reply quickly when new enquiries land
  • You want to see what your money is doing, every single month

Probably not the one for you if...

  • You're choosing purely on who quotes lowest
  • You'd rather have big view counts than the right customers
  • You'd rather stay hidden behind the logo
  • Nobody has time to answer the people who get in touch
  • You need it all to pay off by next week

Your options

Pick your route. We'll help you choose.

Not sure which fits? That's exactly what the call is for.

FAQ

The questions we get asked most

Will I have to appear on camera?

For the best results, yes. People buy from people, and local customers want to see who they'll be dealing with. Most clients are nervous at first. One of ours put it like this on his third shoot:

"The first shoot was horrendous, and I was so nervous, but here on shoot 3, it felt like a breeze, an absolute breeze. If you look at those videos from month 1, you wouldn't even know I was nervous. That's down to you and how you run things." Darren Manton, Mango EV
How soon will we see results?

Honestly, it depends. Technically, you'll see new followers and a brand-new local audience on your page within 48 hours of the first ad going live.

Content and marketing is a compound game. Some clients have had their busiest month in business after 30 days. Others start seeing seriously compounding results around month three, as more and more local people get to know you.

What does exclusivity actually mean?

On the Local Takeover System, we only run ads for one business per industry in each area. We won't run ads for two dentists in the same town aimed at the same people. Content-only clients don't get exclusivity, because nobody is competing for the same ad audience.

How much should I put into ads?

We recommend £15 to £30 a day, paid straight from your business account to Meta. That's separate from our fee, and you always see exactly where it goes.

Can I just have content, without ads?

Yes. That's what Content Partner and the One Off Content Shoot are for. You can move up to the full system later if you want to.

Can you post the content for me?

Posting, captions and scheduling are a separate add-on. Plenty of clients post themselves with the plan we give them. If you'd rather not think about it, ask about the add-on on the call.

How far do you travel?

We're based in Corby, Northamptonshire and film on location at your business. We work across the Midlands and further afield. Travel outside the local area is charged by the mile.

What happens on the call?

A relaxed chat. We look at where you are now, what you want more of, and whether one of the three routes makes sense. If it's not a fit, we'll tell you.

Three months from now

Same business. Two very different spring diaries.

Option one

You wait until things calm down

Your page looks the same as it does today. A competitor down the road started posting properly and running local ads, and the people who used to find you are finding them first.

Option two

You start this month

Three shoot days of content are out there. Locals recognise you before you've said a word, every enquiry gets answered in seconds, and new bookings land every week.
