Potential paid campaigns may target: * Concrete delivery near me * Ready-mix concrete * Concrete suppliers * Order concrete * Concrete delivery by city * Concrete for driveways * Concrete for foundations * Concrete for commercial projects Candidates with experience connecting Google Ads, landing pages, call tracking, and CRM lead follow-up will receive priority. ## Budget Our approved marketing budget is approximately: **C$1,000 per month** This budget may include a combination of: * SEO management * Content * Technical improvements * Local SEO * Link building * Google Ads management * Advertising spend Applicants must explain how they would allocate this budget and what work they would prioritize during the first 90 days. We understand that meaningful SEO takes time. We are looking for a realistic, disciplined strategy—not guarantees of immediate first-page rankings. ## Required Experience Applicants should have proven experience with: * Local SEO * Lead generation * Construction or home-service businesses * Service-area businesses * Google Search Console * Google Analytics 4 * Google Ads * Keyword research * Landing page optimization * Conversion tracking * Technical SEO * Local landing pages * Reporting based on leads and revenue Experience in concrete, construction, equipment, building materials, trades, or industrial services is a major advantage. ## Application Requirements Please include the following in your proposal: 1. A brief explanation of your experience generating leads for local or construction-related businesses. 2. Two or three examples of websites or campaigns you have worked on. 3. The actual results achieved, including traffic, leads, conversion rates, rankings, or cost per lead. 4. Your recommended first 90-day strategy for Uber-Concrete.com. 5.

The tools you use for SEO, reporting, call tracking, and keyword research. 8. Any major problems or opportunities you immediately notice on Uber-Concrete.com. 9. Confirmation that you do not use spam backlinks, private blog networks, or automated low-quality content. ## Screening Questions Please answer these questions directly: * What would you do in the first 30 days? * How would you track whether SEO is generating actual concrete project enquiries? * Would you prioritize SEO, Google Ads, or both with a C$1,000 monthly budget, and why? * How would you make multiple city pages unique and useful? * What is a realistic timeline for generating qualified leads? * What information would you need from us before starting? ## Ideal Freelancer We are looking for someone who: * Thinks commercially * Communicates clearly * Focuses on leads rather than vanity metrics * Provides honest timelines * Can prioritize work within a limited budget * Understands local search * Is proactive with recommendations * Can work collaboratively with our website administrator * Is interested in a long-term relationship based on measurable results The goal is to build Uber-Concrete.com into a recognized lead-generation platform for concrete buyers and suppliers across British Columbia.
