“Crew showed up on time, and the backyard looks better than we pictured. The dogs love it.”

Four trades. A playbook built for each.

We don't market dentists or law firms. Everything we build is for crews who show up, do the work, and earn their reputation one job at a time.

What you get that most agencies skip.

Most agencies know ads. Fewer set up the tracking and follow-up that turn ads into jobs. We do all of it, on every account.

01 · ENGINEER FIRST

20 years building systems that couldn't go down

Before Gidds Media, Chris built 24/7 uptime infrastructure for USAA and web platforms for Hillsong Church serving over a million visitors a month. Your marketing gets the same treatment: clear inputs, fewer failure points, measured outputs.

Built like infrastructure, not a campaign.

02 · SPEED TO LEAD

Leads get worked, not just collected

GoHighLevel set up as your booking engine: missed-call text-back, instant follow-up, and appointment reminders, so the leads you pay for end up on the calendar.

Set up to book jobs, not store contacts.

03 · ATTRIBUTION

Every call traced to where it came from

Call tracking and source attribution on every account. Your reports show booked jobs and revenue by channel, so you know exactly what's paying for itself.

No vanity metrics. No black box.

04 · LOCAL SERVICE ONLY

Playbooks built for how your customers buy

Seasonal demand, high-ticket installs, mobile service areas, crews that need steady work between busy stretches. The playbook changes by trade, and we've run it across turf, junk removal, detailing, and ceramic coating.

A turf install isn't a plumbing call. We market it that way.

05 · FOUNDER-LED

Strategy from the person who built the system

Strategy is led by Chris, backed by a team of SEO specialists. You get a shared Slack channel, weekly updates during launch, and a monthly call after that.

You'll never have to chase us.

Results from businesses like yours.

Real accounts, real numbers. We measure in booked jobs and revenue, the same numbers you track.

We came into this project not entirely sure what we wanted our church website to look like. We knew the vision — we just didn’t always know how to get there. Chris and the Gidds Media team never flinched. They stayed patient, kept building, kept adjusting, and kept showing up until every page, every form, every integration was exactly right. Our team is particular. We changed our minds. We added pages. We moved things around. Chris handled all of it with professionalism and zero frustration. The communication was consistent, the technical knowledge was real — connecting APIs, building custom pages, troubleshooting on the fly — these guys know what they’re doing. They built our church website from the ground up and delivered something we’re genuinely proud of. If you’re a church or nonprofit looking for a team that will stay with you through the process and actually deliver — Gidds Media is it. 10/10.

Gidds Media has been doing a phenomenal job managing our Google and Meta ads. We’ve seen astonishing ROAS, which has converted to an almost 14x in our revenue since starting with them last May - absolutely ridiculous numbers! Their communication and service have been excellent, and they genuinely care about helping our business grow. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Working with Chris and the team at Gidds Media has been a complete game-changer for our business. Before partnering with them, our online presence wasn't where it needed to be. Chris took the time to map out a clear, strategy-driven approach to both our Google Ads and overall SEO. Since bringing them on, our lead quality has surged, our ad spend is actually converting, and our search rankings have consistently climbed. What sets Gidds Media apart is their transparency and deep expertise—they don't just run ads; they optimize every dollar to maximize ROI. If you want a media agency that truly understands modern digital marketing and delivers measurable results, hire Chris and Gidds Media. 5/5 stars, without a doubt!

An engineer's approach to local marketing.

Before Gidds Media, I spent 20+ years building digital systems that couldn't fail: 24/7 uptime infrastructure for USAA, and web platforms for organizations like Hillsong Church with over a million monthly visitors.

I run marketing the same way. Understand the inputs, remove the failure points, measure the output. For a local service business, the output is simple: jobs on the calendar.
