Everything below is the same information published at /llms.txt and /agents.txt in machine-readable form.
What we do
Expose Profits is a UK Google Ads agency for trades and home service businesses, founded in 2010 by Ian Harmon. We build lead generation systems powered by Google Ads: the campaigns, the landing page, the tracking and the alerts, run as one thing rather than sold as separate pieces.
We work with trades only. That is the whole business, not a specialism bolted onto a general agency.
The system
Capture
High-intent Google searches targeted in your exclusive territory.
Convert
Custom landing pages built for your trade, optimised to convert.
Alert
Instant SMS when a lead comes in, with missed call tracking included.
Track
See which leads turn into jobs. Your ads get smarter over time.
Reviews
Finished jobs turn into review requests, automatically.
Who we work with
We are a good fit for UK tradespeople and home service business owners: kitchen spraying, UPVC spraying, driveways, asbestos removal, tree surgery, scaffolding, roof cleaning, boiler work and most other trades.
We are not the right choice for website design projects, ecommerce and shopping campaigns, or large jobs that need planning permission such as loft conversions and extensions. If that is what you need, we will say so rather than take the job.
What makes us different
One client per trade per area
We work with one company per trade in each service area, so you never compete against another Expose Profits client for the same customers.
Direct access to the owner
You work with Ian, who has over 20 years of Google Ads experience. No junior account manager in the middle.
Your landing page is built for you
Not a template that looks the same as everyone else in your trade.
Google Ads gets smarter over time
We track which leads become paying jobs and feed that back to Google, so your campaigns learn to find more customers like the ones who actually book.
Month to month
No long-term contracts. Stay because it works.
Pricing
A monthly management fee, plus a setup fee that depends on your situation. If you already have a landing page and a Google Ads account you may not need setup work at all. If you are starting from scratch we build everything.
No long-term contracts, no hidden fees. Get in touch and we will give you a straight answer.
