A trusted local HVAC company with almost no digital presence.

Byron Burton and his team at Second 2 None had been building a reputation for quality HVAC work in Columbus, GA — but that reputation existed entirely through word of mouth. No strong website. No search ranking. No review system to capture the satisfaction of their existing customers and convert it into digital credibility.

In a market where homeowners search for HVAC companies the moment something breaks, being invisible online meant lost jobs every single day. The winter heating season was approaching — the highest-revenue window of the year — and Second 2 None needed to own local search before it arrived.

“Byron is prompt, courteous, and very professional. He takes the time to explain what the problem is and the fix.” — Wayne Nattkemper, customer

Website Build Local SEO Google Business Profile Review Generation Keyword Ranking

Website, SEO, reviews — all working together before winter hit.

High-Conversion Website. We built Second 2 None a clean, fast, mobile-first website designed around one goal: getting a homeowner with a broken HVAC unit to call or book online within 60 seconds of landing on the page. Online booking integration. Clear service listings. Trust signals front and centre.

Local SEO + Keyword Ranking. We executed a comprehensive local SEO strategy targeting the highest-value HVAC service keywords across Columbus, Midland, Buena Vista, Hamilton, and surrounding Georgia communities. On-page optimisation, Google Business Profile build-out, and citation building put Second 2 None at the top of local results before the winter rush.

Review Generation System. We set up an automated post-service review request system — text message follow-ups sent after each completed job asking satisfied customers to leave a Google review. The response rate was exceptional. Second 2 None went from a thin review profile to over 100 five-star reviews, cementing their top-rated status in Columbus.

Winter Campaign Timing. Every component was live before the heating season started. When temperatures dropped and searches for HVAC companies spiked, Second 2 None was at the top. The result was $300,000 in seasonal revenue — their best winter on record.

$300K. Top-ranked. Over 100 five-star reviews.

From Our Clients

What cannabis brands say about CannaThrive.

M
Marcus T.
Greenleaf Dispensary — Houma, Louisiana

“CannaThrive rebuilt our brand from the ground up and the difference was immediate. New customers started mentioning the look before they even bought anything. That’s when you know the branding is working.”

J
Jasmine R.
Elevate Cannabis Co. — Denver, CO

“The event concept they created for us was something none of our competitors were doing. It brought people in the door who became regulars. That one idea has generated more repeat business than any ad we’ve run.”

D
Devon A.
Pure Roots Dispensary — Center Line, MI

“Our Facebook ads were getting rejected constantly before CannaThrive. They knew exactly how to structure the campaign so it ran clean. First month we saw 90 new customers. That was the proof we needed.”
