Not SaaS companies. Not e-commerce stores. Not influencers.
Plumbers. Electricians. Restaurants. Fitness studios. Cleaning services. HVAC. Landscaping.
Service businesses.
Because that’s what I know. That’s what I’m good at. And that’s where I can make the biggest impact.
HOW I GOT HERE
I started LevelUpX after my food truck business failed during COVID.
I was good at making food. My customers loved it. But when everything shut down, I didn’t have the systems to survive.
I watched my business die not because I was bad at what I did, but because I didn’t have the right systems.
That failure taught me something important:
Good businesses don’t fail because they’re bad at their craft. They fail because they’re bad at marketing.
So I went all-in on learning everything I could about marketing, automation, and building systems that actually work.
I spent years studying. Testing. Building systems for other businesses. Figuring out what works and what’s just noise.
Now I help service business owners avoid the mistakes I made.
Specialist in service business marketing.
Based in Mankato, Minnesota. Serving businesses nationwide.
What I build:
Industries I work with:
Plumbers, electricians, HVAC, restaurants, fitness studios, cleaning services, landscaping, home services—any service-based business where the owner is tired of losing leads and wants systems that work.
My approach:
No BS. No fluff. No strategies that sound good but don’t work. Just practical systems that bring in more customers and save you time.
Capacity:
I only take 2 new clients per month. This isn’t a factory. When you work with me, you get my full attention.
Location:
Based in Mankato, Minnesota. I work remotely with businesses nationwide. Everything happens online strategy calls, project updates, training.
Because you’re like me.
You’re not trying to be the next tech unicorn. You’re not chasing venture capital. You’re not trying to “scale to exit.”
You just want to:
You’re good at what you do. You care about your customers. You just need the marketing and automation to match your skills.
That’s where I come in.
Service businesses have specific problems:
And those problems have specific solutions.
I’ve built these systems for service businesses like yours. For plumbers. For restaurants. For electricians. For fitness studios. For cleaning services.
I know what works because I’ve done it.
We don’t sell you a full website rebuild when all you need is better follow-up. We identify the bottleneck that’s costing you the most money and fix that first. Then we move to the next one.
Why it matters: You get results faster. You don’t waste money on things you don’t need. You see ROI in weeks, not months.
You’re not locked in. You stay because we deliver results, not because you signed a 12-month agreement you regret.
Why it matters: We have to earn your business every month. That keeps us honest and keeps us focused on getting you actual results.
You know what you’re paying and what you’re getting. No hidden fees. No surprise charges. No “oh, that’s extra” conversations three months in.
Why it matters: You can make informed decisions. You’re never wondering if you’re getting ripped off. You trust us because we’re upfront from day one.
We work with service businesses plumbers, electricians, restaurants, fitness studios, cleaning companies. People who are working 60-80 hour weeks and don’t have time for marketing BS.
Why it matters: We understand your world. We know you can’t spend three hours a day on social media. We build systems that work while you’re working.
Step 1:
I Figure Out What’s Actually Broken
Most people think they need a new website. Or more ads. Or better social media.
Usually, they’re wrong.
I start by identifying your real bottleneck the one thing that’s actually costing you customers.
Is it:
Once I know what’s broken, I can fix it.
Step 2:
I Build the Solution
Not a Band-Aid. Not a quick fix. A real system.
If you’re missing leads, I build automation that responds within 60 seconds.
If you’re invisible online, I get you ranking on Google.
If leads aren’t converting, I build follow-up sequences that turn maybes into yeses.
I handle:
Step 3:
I Train You (and Your Team) to Use It
I don’t build something and disappear.
I make sure you know how to use it. How to update it. How to make it work for you.
Then I stick around to make sure it actually works.
Step 4:
We Optimize Until It Works
First version might not be perfect. That’s fine.
We track what’s working. Adjust what’s not. Test new things. Keep improving until you’re seeing real results.
I’M A GOOD FIT IF:
✓ You’re a service-based business (plumber, restaurant, electrician, fitness, cleaning, etc.)
✓ You’re losing leads or customers to competitors
✓ You’re ready to actually implement solutions (not just collect advice)
✓ You’re willing to invest in systems that work
✓ You’re tired of agencies that overpromise and underdeliver
I’M NOT A GOOD FIT IF:
✗ You want cheap and fast (quality takes time and investment)
✗ You’re looking for someone to just “run your social media”
✗ You’re not willing to change anything about how you operate
✗ You want a logo or branding work (I focus on systems that bring customers)
✗ You’re in an industry I don’t specialize in (SaaS, e-commerce, etc.)
Local:
Mankato, Minnesota and surrounding southern Minnesota areas
National:
I work remotely with service businesses across the United States
How it works:
Everything happens online strategy calls via Google Meet, project updates via email, screen-sharing for training.
You don’t need to be in Minnesota to work with me. Most of my clients aren’t.
I’m currently taking 2 new clients per month
This isn’t because I’m turning away business for fun. It’s because I can’t deliver quality work if I’m juggling 30 clients at once.
When you work with me, you get my full attention. That means limited capacity.
If you’re interested:
If I’m at capacity, I’ll let you know and we can schedule for next month.
If you’re a service business owner who’s:
