The Real Problem
Most service businesses don't have a lead problem. They have a website and follow-up problem.
The leads are out there searching every single day. The question is whether your website actually shows up — and what happens once they hit submit.
Missed calls turn into missed jobs
You're on a roof, in a truck, or knee-deep in a job. A clear inquiry workflow helps your team respond when it is practical to do so.
Forms that go nowhere
Your current website has a contact form, but submissions land in an inbox you check once a day. The lead is cold by then — and your competitor already replied.
Zero follow-up after the first reply
78% of customers hire whoever responds first. Without automated text and email follow-up, every lead you don't close in 5 minutes is a lost job.
An outdated website that lacks local context
Slow loads, no local SEO, generic templates, and broken mobile layouts. If 'roofer near me' or 'fence company Chattanooga' doesn't show your site, it's invisible.
Too many disconnected tools
Website here, QuickBooks there, Jobber for scheduling, a spreadsheet for leads. Nothing is connected — and you're the glue holding it together every evening.

The Real Story
Before working with Forge, Lewis & Sons Fencing was relying entirely on word of mouth — picking up just 1 or 2 jobs a month. They had no website, no online presence, and no way for new customers to find them.
We built them a professional fencing website with online quote requests, lead capture, and a full business dashboard to manage jobs, invoices, and customers all in one place.
The results came fast. Within weeks, Google started sending real, local traffic to their site. Leads started coming in through the contact form. And now? They're booked solid for the next 3 months — turning down work they can't fit in.
"The client reported 39 leads after launch; results vary by market and business."

Honest Answers
"But what about…"
The questions every owner asks before switching. Here's the straight answer.
"I already have a website."
Many contractor sites are disconnected brochures. Forge can connect your website to lead management, scheduling, and follow-up tools so inquiries are easier to capture and organize.
"I don't want something complicated."
It's the opposite. Today you're juggling 5+ apps — that's the complicated part. Forge gives you one login, one inbox, one place to look. Most owners are running it from their phone within a week.
"I already use QuickBooks, Jobber, or similar."
Forge replaces the parts of those tools you actually use day-to-day — leads, scheduling, invoicing, follow-up — and consolidates the cost. You keep QuickBooks for accounting if you want, but stop paying for the rest.
"What if I'm not 'tech-savvy'?"
That's exactly who we built this for. The dashboard works like the apps you already use on your phone. We also handle setup, training, and 30 days of post-launch support; recurring services are available separately.

Built by a local, for locals.
I'm Chris Leamon — father of four, husband, and Chattanooga native. I started Forge because I kept watching great contractors lose jobs to competitors with better-looking websites and faster follow-ups.
I built the kind of system I'd want if I were running a service business — one that works as hard as you do, without requiring a tech degree to run it.
