Job Description
I’m building a team to handle SEO for service-based businesses across the U.S.
My background is in the trades. I founded, ran, and sold an HVAC company after over a decade, so I understand how these businesses operate, the value of visibility on Google, and the importance of a strong online reputation, especially Google reviews.
To be upfront, SEO is not my background. However, I understand how critical it is for service businesses to be found online, which is why I’m building a team of professionals who specialize in this.
Right now, I’m working through Upwork to begin building the agency. Starting out, most work will originate on Upwork, where I will add you to the agency I’m building. Once the team is established, the plan is to build a website, develop a brand, and operate independently.
If you are a hardworking, trustworthy, and honest individual who wants to be part of something that could turn into a strong opportunity, or simply want to test the waters and earn additional income on the side, feel free to reach out.
In addition to SEO, we are also working on resolving issues that directly impact visibility and lead flow, including:
Google Business Profile (GBP) suspensions and reinstatements
Google Local Services Ads (LSA) account issues and verification problems
Review-related issues, including removals when applicable
General account problems that may be limiting visibility in this niche
???? What You’ll Be Working On
Local SEO (Google Business Profile optimization, maps ranking)
On-page SEO for service-based websites
Keyword research focused on real customer intent
Citation building and basic backlink strategies
Content optimization (service + location pages)
Tracking rankings, traffic, and lead flow
???? Compensation Structure (Please Read Carefully)
This role starts as a performance-based opportunity:
You earn 40% of net profit per project
The business retains 60%
If multiple freelancers are involved:
The 40% is split accordingly
2 freelancers ? 20?ch
3 freelancers ? split evenly
You are paid as long as you are actively working on the project, whether it is one-time or ongoing monthly work.
Payment can be sent via Wise or PayPal.
???? Future Opportunity
This structure is not intended to stay this way forever.
As the company grows:
Work will become more consistent
Opportunities will open for:
Hourly roles
Salary positions
Long-term partnerships
The goal is to build something that is profitable for everyone involved.
???? Who This Is For
Experienced SEO freelancers (local SEO preferred)
Someone who understands service-based businesses (HVAC, plumbing, etc.)
Someone comfortable working on or learning GBP and LSA-related issues
Someone who wants flexibility and can treat this as a side opportunity
Someone interested in growing with a team over time
???? Requirements (Please Read Before Applying)
Do not apply if you do not have extensive experience
This is not a learn-as-you-go position
I have limited experience in SEO, so I am only looking for highly experienced professionals who can deliver results from the start
???? How to Apply
Do not apply through this platform.

"Im putting you on the news"
Include in your
