Missed call while you’re working
Customer gets a quick reply until you can follow up.
For owner-operated trades and home-service businesses
Make your business easier to hire.
Calls come in while you are working. Texts get buried. Quotes wait too long. Payments feel awkward. Reviews get missed. I clean up the business side so customers can find you, contact you, approve the job, pay you, and leave a review.
No giant system. No one-size-fits-all setup. Just a practical first look and a clear next step.
A cleaner customer path
New customer reaches out
Quick reply goes out
Quote gets approved
Payment step is clear
Review request sent
Good jobs get lost in the small stuff.
It is not one big mistake. It is the call you miss, the text you forget, the quote that sits, the awkward payment step, or the follow-up that never happens.
Text or new request gets buried
Follow-up stays in front of you instead of disappearing in your phone.
Quote sits too long
Scope, approval, deposit, and the next step are clearer.
Payment feels awkward
Customer gets a simple way to approve the job and pay.
Happy customer moves on
Review, referral, or repeat-work follow-up happens while the job is still fresh.
Google page or website feels outdated
Your first impression better matches the quality of your work.
How we get it set up.
Free First Look
Send the basics, where customers find you now, and what feels messy.

We handle the basics together
I walk you through the few things I need from you, answer questions as we go, and make sure you stay in control.
I finish the setup
I handle the setup, wording, and testing behind the scenes, then show you what changed and how to use it.
You provide basic business information, a short conversation when needed, and approval of customer-facing changes. I handle the setup and testing.
Work directly with Wes.
I’m Wes Robertson. I help owner-operated trades clean up the business side so good work does not get buried behind missed calls, messy quotes, weak follow-up, or an outdated first impression.
Before starting The Pro Setup, I helped doctors, contractors, real estate investors, and property managers find where work was getting stuck and make it easier by improving the process, using technology when it helped, or both.
We keep what works, fix what is messy, and make the next step clear.
One example setup.
See one possible setup in action.
This fictional bathroom contractor example shows how a clearer first impression, easy contact options, project proof, and follow-up can work together.
A new website is only one possible part of The Pro Setup.
Some businesses need a site like this. Others only need help with their Google profile, missed calls, follow-up, quotes, payments, or reviews.
Start where it will help most.
The Free First Look helps find where customers are getting stuck. If you want help, I’ll recommend the smallest setup that fixes what actually needs fixing and quote it before any paid work begins.
You don’t have to buy a big package. If one small fix is enough, that’s what I’ll recommend.

Most setups use only a few low-cost third-party tools. For a solo pro, ongoing software is often around $15–$30/month depending on what you need, plus normal domain costs and payment-processing fees. You pay those providers directly. There’s no required monthly Pro Setup fee.
Before anything starts, you’ll see exactly what I’m doing, the total price, any ongoing costs, and anything that could make the job bigger.
You may not need a big software system.
Jobber and Housecall Pro can be a great fit when you need scheduling, dispatching, crew management, and a full field-service platform. If you mainly need the customer side of the business cleaned up, The Pro Setup takes a different approach: keep what works, fix the gaps, and add only what you need.

If you need full scheduling, dispatching, crew management, GPS, job costing, and broader field-service operations, Jobber or Housecall Pro may be the better fit. If you mainly want the customer side of the business working professionally without learning a bigger system, that’s what The Pro Setup is built for.

Questions owners usually ask first.
Is this just a website service?
No. A website may be part of the fix, but I look at the full customer path: Google profile, first impression, calls, texts, follow-up, quotes, approvals, payments, reviews, referrals, and repeat work. You can explore an example contractor setup, but many businesses do not need a full website rebuild.
Can we start with one area?
Yes. That is usually the best way to start. We can set up one practical area, make sure it works, and build from there only if you are comfortable and it would genuinely help.
Do I have to figure out the software myself?
No. I’ll recommend what makes sense, walk you through the few things I need from you, and handle the setup and testing. You will not be left with a list of tools or instructions to figure out alone.
Are there monthly software costs?
Sometimes. Most setups use only a few low-cost third-party tools. For a solo pro, ongoing software is often around $15–$30/month depending on what you need, plus normal domain costs and payment-processing fees. You pay those providers directly, and there’s no required monthly Pro Setup fee. I’ll show you any ongoing costs before anything is set up.
Do I have to pay the full amount upfront?
Smaller jobs are usually paid before I start. Larger projects can be split into payments when it makes sense. You’ll see the full project price and payment terms before any work begins.
What happens during the Free First Look?
I review what you send, look at what customers can see now, and point out the main issues I notice. If a short follow-up would help, I’ll ask a few questions before recommending the smallest useful place to start. Paid setup work is scoped separately.
