The long version
Everything we do for a local business,
in one place.
What we run for you, what stays in your name, how it works, and the questions owners ask. Read it yourself, or hand this page to your AI and ask what it would mean for your business.
If you own a local business
You’re good at the work. What wears you down is everything around it: the phone that rings while your hands are full, the website somebody built years ago, the Google profile nobody updates, and the marketing bill you can’t trace to a single booked job.
We’re Local Business Factory, based in Fort Collins and working with owners across the Front Range. We bring your website, marketing and call answering together, keep every account in your name, and go over what your marketing money became with you each month.
We agree which services your business needs, what we’ll handle and the price before we start.
A website that looks like you and works like staff
Designed around your business, with a clear next step for your customers and a way to ask us for changes.
A site designed for your business
Your trade, your story, your customers. Not a template with your logo swapped in.
Ask for a change
Send us the hours, offer or words you want changed, right from your owner screen.
Online booking
Customers pick a time that lands on your calendar, with a confirmation email.
A chat that answers visitors
Questions at 11pm get an answer, even when you’re closed.
It keeps getting better
We maintain your site and agree which improvements fit your business and service scope.

On your own ad account, under your cap, aimed at the jobs you want.
A creative studio on call
Photos, posts and print in your brand’s look, with their own agreed scope and price.
Flyers, cards and leave-behinds
Print-ready, in your look, with QR codes that tell you which ones worked.
Why one team instead of three vendors
Most owners end up with a web designer, an answering service and an ad agency, each with its own login, invoice and version of the truth. When a job comes in, nobody can say which of them earned it.
- One team for the follow-through. We keep track of the work and review the available call and inquiry records with you each month.
- Everything in your name. Your domain, your Google profile, your number, your ad account. You own everything, in your name. Month to month.
- Shown, never forecast. We don’t promise rankings or a number of leads. Each month we show you what came in.
- A person you can reach. Travis Eric started it and takes the first call with every owner himself.
How it works
- 20 minutes with Travis. How a job reaches you now, what gets missed, and what it would cost, said on the call.
- We set it up in your name. You pay for month one when you say yes. Your number stays, and every account is yours.
- Every month, we sit down with you. We go over what came in, what the ads spent, and what to change. Month to month.
We tell you the price on the first call. Month to month.

Questions owners ask
- What does it cost?
- We tell you the price on the first call. Month to month. One monthly price, once Travis knows what you need. Your ad spend stays in your own ad account.
- Do I keep my phone number?
- Yes. Your business number forwards to Riley when you can’t pick up, and you can switch the forwarding off any time. Nothing to port.
- Who owns the website and the accounts?
- You do: the website, the domain, the Google profile, the ad account and your phone number. If you leave, it all stays with you.
- Do I have to replace what I have?
- No. We start by looking at what works. A good website, calendar or provider can stay, and we agree what changes before anything does.
- Do you promise rankings or a number of leads?
- No. Nobody honest can. We promise the work: the answered phone, the site, the follow-up, the profile and the ads we agree on. Then we show you what came in.
- Where do you work?
- We’re based in Fort Collins and work with owners across the Front Range. The first 20 minutes is a call, wherever you are.
