CICOR Marketing

Marketing for General Contractors

Win the Jobs You Want. In the Service Area You Choose.

CICOR Marketing helps contractors, remodelers and builders show up when owners search and turn inquiries into qualified bids, without paying for shared leads.

Why Contractor Marketing Is Different

Busy Today Does Not Mean Booked Six Months From Now.

Most contractors run on referrals until the pipeline gets thin, then scramble. A homeowner planning a kitchen remodel or an addition will search, look at photos of your work, read reviews, check your license, and ask for two or three bids. A commercial owner or developer will look for proof you can deliver on schedule and on budget before they put you on a bid list.

Seasonality makes it harder. Roofing spikes after storms, exterior work slows in bad weather, and remodeling inquiries rise and fall with the calendar. If your marketing only turns on when work is slow, it is already too late.

CICOR Marketing builds marketing that keeps your schedule full with the jobs you actually want: the right project types, the right size and the right zip codes. We focus on your service area, your portfolio and a lead process that qualifies before you drive out to bid.

Where Contractor Marketing Stalls

The Problems We Fix, and What Changes

Shared leads and bidding wars. Leads that come to you directly from your own website, Google Business Profile and ads, so you compete on your work and reviews, not just price.

Calls from outside your area. Service area pages, location targeting and qualifying questions that focus on the towns, project types and budgets you want.

Your best work is hidden. A project portfolio organized by type and location, with before and after photos and short project stories.

Feast or famine seasons. A marketing calendar planned around your seasons, with campaigns that start building next season’s work before the slow months hit.

Not on the commercial bid lists. Capability pages, project sheets and a prequalification packet that make it easy to add you to the list.

Credibility Comes First

Licensed, Insured and Accurate in Every Ad

Homeowners and project owners check credentials, and so do regulators. CICOR Marketing does not give legal advice, but we build your marketing around the rules contractors work under, and you approve every piece.

  • License numbers where required. Many states, including Florida, require a contractor’s license number in advertising. We include it on your site, profiles and ads where your state requires.
  • Accurate claims. We do not use “licensed,” “bonded,” “insured” or “certified” unless it is currently true, and we name the certifying body when you mention a manufacturer certification.
  • Reviews requested honestly. Review requests follow Google’s rules and the FTC’s rules on fake reviews: no incentives, no gating and no reviews written for you.
  • Photos with permission. Project photos and addresses appear only with the owner’s permission, and we avoid showing house numbers or identifying details.

What Contractors Ask Us First

Should I keep buying leads from lead marketplaces?2026-10-16T11:14:50-04:00

Many contractors use them while they build their own sources. Shared leads tend to cost more over time and push you to compete on price. The goal is a steady flow of direct leads from your own website, Google Business Profile and ads, so you depend less on rented leads.

How do I stop getting calls from outside my service area?2026-10-16T11:14:50-04:00

We set your Google Business Profile service area, build pages for the towns you want, target ads by location, and add qualifying questions to your estimate form. That focuses your marketing on the jobs worth the drive.

What are Local Services Ads, and are they worth it?2026-10-16T11:14:49-04:00

Local Services Ads appear at the top of Google with a verification badge and charge by lead rather than by click. They can work well for many trades. We look at your market, trade and budget before recommending them, and ad spend is always paid directly by you.

How do you handle seasonality?2026-10-16T11:14:49-04:00

We plan a twelve month calendar around your busy and slow seasons, start campaigns before demand peaks, and use slower months to build content, photos and reviews that pay off next season.

Do I need to put my license number in my ads?2026-10-16T11:14:48-04:00

Many states require it, including Florida. We include your license number wherever your state requires it. Check your state’s licensing board for the exact rule, since CICOR Marketing does not give legal advice.

Can you help with commercial bid lists?2026-10-16T11:14:48-04:00

Yes. We build capability pages, project sheets and a prequalification packet, and help you stay in front of the owners, architects and general contractors who send bid invitations.
