Key Points

• Build niche local service websites (junk removal, plumbers, etc.) in specific cities without owning the business
• Rank via SEO (content + backlinks) to page one of Google to capture organic search demand
• Use a call tracking number to route inbound leads to a paying local business client
• Offer a free one-week trial before charging — removes friction and builds trust
• Charge a flat monthly fee with no contracts; leverage is structural (cancel = lose the calls)
• Overhead is ~$25/monthpersite;$104K/month revenue with under $5K total overhead
• Passive once ranked — some clients have paid for 5+ years with zero communication
