Why most general contractors miss out
GC is the highest-trust local-service purchase a homeowner makes — and most GCs have weak GBPs and no review strategy to support that trust.
Generic 'contractor' searches are saturated; the winnable battles are project-specific (kitchen, bathroom, addition, ADU, basement) — but most GCs don't optimize for them.
Long sales cycles mean homeowners research for weeks. Without rich content and review depth, you're invisible during that research window.
