Hey Chris, this is Ethan with Edge Digital Marketing. I was looking at American Mechanical KC's Google profile — you've got solid ratings but a low review count. Most blue collar companies your size in Kansas City have 80+. We help shops like yours turn happy customers into 5-star reviews on autopilot. Worth a quick chat this week? Reply STOP to opt out.

Hey Chris,

Saw American Mechanical KC on Google — solid ratings, clearly doing good work. But your review count is low for your trade. Most blue collar companies your size in Kansas City have 80+. Google ranks by review velocity, not just rating — even at 5 stars, a shop with 30 reviews loses ranking to one with 150.

We automate the review request — every customer gets a text right after the job. Most of our shop clients triple their review count in 90 days. We also handle SEO and GBP optimization so you actually start ranking for "blue collar Kansas City."

Quick note — we also flagged No Social as secondary gaps. All of those are part of what we handle, so it's the same conversation.

Got 15 minutes this week for a Zoom? I'll pull up your top competitors in Kansas City and show you exactly where the gap is.

"Hey, is this Chris? My name's Ethan with Edge Digital Marketing here in KC. Got 60 seconds? I'll be quick."

**Hook — Pain Point:**
"I was looking at American Mechanical KC online. Your ratings look great — but your review count is well below what shops your size usually have in Kansas City. Most are at 80+. The math is simple: no system is asking every customer. Is that on your radar?"

**Bridge — Additional Services:**
"Review automation is the immediate fix — every customer gets a text right after the job. We also handle SEO so you actually start ranking for "blue collar Kansas City" searches. Those two together is what scales fast."

**Ask:**
"Here's all I want — 15 minutes on Zoom. I'll pull up your Google profile and your top competitors in Kansas City and show you exactly where you're invisible. Thursday afternoon or Friday morning?"

**Objection Handlers:**
- "Send me info" → "Sure, but 15 min on Zoom gets you 10x more. Thursday 2pm?"
- "Already have someone" → "Cool — who? Most of those folks don't specialize in trades. Worth a second opinion."
- "We're busy enough" → "Perfect — means when you DO want to grow, the engine's already built. Marketing takes 90 days to kick in."
- "Not interested" → "Totally fair. Can I shoot you a couple examples of what we did for other KC shops? If still a no after that I'll leave you alone."
