## Snapshot

| Check | Finding |
|-------|---------|
| Mobile-friendly | Weebly template adapts, but homepage is mostly centered text under a static logo banner — little sense of outdoor work |
| Clear primary CTA | No click-to-call on the homepage; “Contact us” is buried in body copy without a strong button |
| Contact path obvious | Phone and address only on Contact page; homepage does not surface them |
| Speed / feel | Light Weebly page loads fine; “Powered by Weebly” badge undercuts a licensed contractor brand |
| Trust (reviews, about, photos) | Strong tenure claim (since 2003, licensed SB County) but Gallery is thin; no reviews or license # on homepage |
| SEO basics (title, H1, local info) | Title is brand name; welcome H2 not a strong local H1; Oak Hills NAP only on Contact |
| Overall first impression | Dated DIY Weebly template — looks like a placeholder for a business that’s been operating 20+ years |

## Top issues (max 5)

1. Homepage has no phone number or click-to-call — a landscaping lead on mobile has to hunt for Contact
2. “Powered by Weebly” footer badge signals DIY, not a licensed San Bernardino County contractor since 2003
3. Long service list on Services is a bullet dump with no grouping (design / install / maintain) or path to quote
4. Gallery page promises project photos but reads nearly empty — weak proof for outdoor work
5. Brand is all-caps Weebly chrome; first viewport does not show real landscape work or a clear next step

## Opportunities

What a better site should do for this business:

- Lead with **J. Martinez** + since 2003 + San Bernardino County so trust lands in the first few seconds
- Put **Call** and **Request a free quote** above the fold on mobile
- Group services under their own motto: Design · Construct · Maintain (instead of a flat 16-item list)
- Surface Oak Hills / High Desert + SB County service area near the phone
- Use real project photography in the hero and a short proof strip — even a few strong photos beat a text-only welcome page

## Suggested scope

Map to `config/packages.md`:

- **Package:** Rebuild — $1,799 (payment plan OK: 50/50 or 3 monthly)
- **Pages / features:** Home (brand + CTAs + tenure), Services (grouped), Gallery / projects (migrate existing photos), Contact (phone, address, form, map link); content migration from Weebly; click-to-call; Google Maps directions
- **Out of scope for v1:** Photo shoot, logo redesign, paid ads, full booking/CRM system, self-serve Weebly/Squarespace login
- **Rough timeline:** 2–3 weeks after deposit + content/photos access
- **Update model after launch:** Hybrid + Care recommended ($79/mo) — seasonal service blurbs and photo swaps fit easily in 2 hrs/mo

## Call talking points

1. You’ve been serving San Bernardino County since 2003 — the Weebly homepage doesn’t show that strength in the first few seconds the way a modern site can.
2. On a phone, there’s no click-to-call on the home page; homeowners looking for a landscaper usually call or request a quote in under ten seconds if it’s obvious.
3. We can keep your Design · Construct · Maintain story and migrate your pages off Weebly so the “Powered by” badge goes away and the site matches a licensed contractor.

## Notes for demo

Brand colors / fonts / imagery cues from current site or listings:

- Motto: Design · Construct · Maintain
