What Local Businesses Get With CharlieOpolis
in 36 Seconds
Your leads, bookings, and repeat customers can grow when we fix these 5 growth-killing problems with done-for-you digital marketing and the help of ai teams.
24/7 Lead Capture & Follow‑Up (AI‑Powered)
Imagine having your own team of AI Employees:
While you’re busy serving clients (or off the clock), your AI receptionists and business assistants handle calls, texts, chats, appointment booking, reviews, and campaigns 24/7—so leads and follow‑ups never slip through the cracks.
Done‑for‑you Digital Marketing
We design and upgrade your website, lock in local SEO and listings, manage your social presence, automate follow‑up, run campaigns, and more—so more of the right people call, request quotes, and book—without adding work to your plate.
Business Growth Systems
Yes, CharlieOpolis can build you a one‑off website or run a standalone campaign—but that’s not where the real growth happens.
Our Business Growth Systems are affordable and flexible monthly “Local Growth” packages that combine the right mix of software and hands‑on work, so instead of a single project that fizzles out or demands big chunks of cash, your visibility, reviews, and leads keep climbing month after month—starting from just a few hundred dollars.
(More details in a moment).
First Step?
A digital marketing audit. We review your website, Google Profile, and more, giving you clarity before you spend another dollar on the wrong marketing.
Ongoing partnership.
You get regular check‑ins to review results, answer questions, and pick the next best move. That way, you are never guessing what to do next with your digital marketing.
🙋♂️ Which of 5 these 5 silent killers is hitting your business?
More Customers,
Less Hassle
You're Excellent at What You Do.
Digital Marketing? Different Story.
Juggling Google, websites, ads, and social media is a distraction from serving clients and growing revenue.
What you actually want: Simple strategies that bring in business—without the extra work or learning curve.
That's CharlieOpolis. We handle your online growth. You handle what you do best.
5 Real Problems We Help You Solve
Which of These 5 Challenges Is Costing You the Most Customers Right Now?
1️⃣ LACK OF TRAFFIC
Problem #1: Your Business Is Invisible When Customers Are Ready to Buy
If you're not showing up on Google, maps, or local directories—potential customers simply won't find you.
Lost visibility = lost revenue.
Sound familiar?
▫ No calls, emails, or web form submissions
▫ Search for your business, but you're buried beyond page one
▫ Local competitors seem to be everywhere—you're nowhere :-(
How CharlieOpolis Fixes It:
We put you on the map—literally and digitally.
Our team handles listings management, local SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, and social proof so when locals search, they find and choose you instead of competitors.
Result: Your business is better positioned to show up where local customers are already looking, which can lead to more calls and new inquiries over time.
2️⃣ LOW LEADS
Problem #2: Lots of Visitors, But Nobody Reaches Out
Website traffic doesn't pay the bills—booked appointments do. When visitors don't convert or calls go unanswered, that's revenue walking out the door.
Contact forms ignored. Unanswered calls. Missed voicemails. Inquiries at odd hours when no one's available. All of this adds up to real missed opportunities.
Warning signs:
▫ Website gets hits, but inbox stays empty
▫ People like your social posts, but never book or call
▫ Voicemails pile up, or calls ring through without answer
▫ People say they tried reaching you, but gave up or booked elsewhere (you were busy working)
▫ Inquiries come at odd hours when no one's available
How CharlieOpolis Fixes It:
We set up systems that help you turn missed opportunities into booked appointments—automatically.
Our AI receptionists can answer calls 24/7, qualify leads instantly, and book appointments on the spot. Plus, our conversion-optimized web design nudges visitors to not just browse—but to reach out.
Result: More of your existing visitors have clear, easy ways to reach out, so it becomes much more likely they turn into real leads and bookings instead of slipping away
💡 Many businesses can see the fastest results by fixing this Problem #2. Why? Because if you're already getting traffic—it makes sense to focus on capturing it.
3️⃣ STALLED SALES
Problem #3: Leads Don't Become Paying Clients
Getting leads but not converting them? This is where potential profit evaporates. Every drop-off drains your marketing ROI.
Red flags:
▫ Leads go cold after the first conversation
▫ Price shoppers vanish or “need to think about it”
▫ No system for follow-up or reminders
▫ Prospects fall through the cracks
How CharlieOpolis fixes it:
We add automation(s) to your sales process so more leads turn into paying customers—with less chasing.
Our systems handle booking, follow-ups, and client communications automatically. We add trust-boosting reviews and optimize your website to be a conversion engine.
Result: Your leads are followed up with more consistently and professionally, which gives you a much better chance of turning good inquiries into paying customers
4️⃣ NO LOYALTY
Problem #4: Customers Don't Come Back (Or Refer Anyone)
First-time buyers disappear. Referrals are rare. You're always hustling for the next new customer instead of building on previous wins.
What this costs you:
▫ No recurring revenue or repeat bookings
▫ Relying on luck instead of loyal customers
▫ Your brand reputation just "exists"—it doesn't grow
How CharlieOpolis Fixes It:
We launch automated review requests, email campaigns, client check-ins, and loyalty-building moves that keep you top-of-mind.
Result: Past customers hear from you at the right times and in the right way, making it easier for them to come back again and send friends your way.
5️⃣ POOR RETENTION
Problem #5: Clients Drifting Away, Long-Term Value Lost
Landing clients is hard—losing them is unforgivable. When customers quietly vanish or never refer you again, long-term growth stalls.
This mostly affects businesses with memberships, subscriptions, ongoing coaching, or service contracts.
Signs you’re stuck here:
▫ Clients, customers or patients fade after the first win—no upsell, no referrals
▫ Unclear value between projects or after delivery
▫ No data-driven way to show business impact
How CharlieOpolis fixes it:
Our systems set up automated post-sale email and SMS follow-ups, real-time review request campaigns, and satisfaction surveys—so every client feels valued and stays engaged.
All results are tracked and reported through an easy business dashboard, so you can see your repeat business and customer loyalty improving.
Result: Clients are reminded of the value you deliver and invited back in thoughtful ways, which supports stronger loyalty and higher lifetime value over time.

AI-Powered Tools
Meet Your 24/7 AI Team
What Your AI Team Actually Does
AI Employees are specialized team members you assign to specific jobs in your business:
Ai Receptionists
... that help stop 🛑 leads leaking out of your funnel!
These Ai receptionists are lead catchers, not office admins. They answer calls, reply to texts and website chats, and handle Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp enquiries so new leads get an instant response instead of landing in voicemail or getting ignored until tomorrow.
When you are busy, short‑staffed, or closed for the night, they can keep working in the background to qualify prospects and book them straight into your calendar. This is designed to help protect your ad spend, reduce hot leads drifting to competitors, and turn more of your existing traffic into opportunities for revenue.
Voice AI
Answer every call in seconds. Qualify leads. Book appointments instantly—even at 2 AM. Your customers hear a friendly, professional voice.
Chat AI
Chat AI is designed to engage visitors - 24/7/365 -who might otherwise give up or go to competitors, helping you capture more booking
Ai Assistants
... that tidy your to‑do list and keep prospects warm
These Ai assistants handle the follow‑through work that usually slips through the cracks.
They send automated review requests, follow up with leads that did not book on the first touch, draft messages and content, and even spin up simple landing pages for seasonal promos so your campaigns launch faster with less effort.
Reviews AI
Get more 5‑star reviews on autopilot. Build trust, climb search rankings, and turn happy customers into your best marketing tool.
Funnel AI
Running a promotion or testing a new service? Spin up high-converting landing pages in minutes. No tech skills needed.
Content AI
Stop staring at blank pages—get ready-to-use marketing copy, email campaigns, and social posts instantly
Workflow AI
Turn more leads into customers—automate follow-ups, reminders, and nurture sequences so no one slips through the cracks
For less than a part‑time receptionist, you get round‑the‑clock lead capture and follow‑up that can be:
◌ Added to your monthly Business Growth System (right away or when you're ready to scale) for USD$267/month, or ...
◌ Activated as a standalone subscription for USD$297/month, or USD$2847/year (roughly a 20% savings for paying annually)—no full marketing package required
Behind every great AI tool is a system that tracks, manages, and measures.
That's why every Business Growth System (or standalone AI employee plan) includes powerful CRM, pipeline management, and real-time analytics, so you can see which marketing is actually paying for itself and where to double down.
CRM
Track every lead, follow up automatically, and see what's working—so you can make smarter decisions and grow faster.
Real-time Analytics Dashboard
Real-time analytics dashboard to track local marketing ROI.

Business Growth Systems
Here's the pattern we're breaking:
You know how a lot of business owners drop $3K on a new website, then wait months (or longer) for "more marketing money"? ... Meanwhile, competitors keep moving forward and your momentum dies. 😭
Our approach: Replace stop‑start projects with monthly progress systems; so your visibility, reputation, and opportunities to win new business keep stacking over time.
Each month, we’re improving key parts of your online presence—adding or upgrading pages, boosting your Google Business Profile, building out content and reviews, tuning your campaigns and more.
Here’s how we work together:
Step 1: You Pick Your Growth Challenge(s)
In our initial consultation(s), we identify which of the 5 roadblocks mentioned earlier (or which other problem) is costing you the most profit.
Not sure what your actual “digital marketing challenges” are?
No problem. To help with this, we will run a Digital Marketing Audit, so that you get clarity before you spend another dollar on the wrong marketing.
Step 2: Choose Your Growth Speed
Together, we choose a monthly package (aka Business Growth System plan) based on your goals, timeline, and budget.
You pick the investment level that fits your current revenue (or goals)—from $575/month (steady progress 🐌) to $875/month (faster growth 🚘) to $2,595+/month (market-dominating speed 🚀), and we customize everything to match.
Step 3: We Build Your System
We start working on website optimization, Google Business Profile, content, reviews, local sponsorships, paid ads, software tools—whatever solves your problem gets prioritized.
No long-term contracts. No hidden upsells. Just results you can measure—and the freedom to adjust as you grow.
Step 4: You Grow (Predictably) 💪
Clear timelines. Measurable activity and performance metrics you can monitor.
What’s the investment for a Business Growth System?
Every business is unique, so your growth system is custom-built.
But here are typical investment ranges:
Foundation Package 🐌 – Steady Lead Generation
Best for small businesses ready for affordable, consistent growth.
Investment: $750 setup + $575/month
Growth Package 🚘– Market Domination Accelerator
Best for businesses ready to outpace competitors and own their local market.
Investment: $750 setup + $875/month
Leadership Package 🚀– Category Command Blueprint
Best for established businesses aiming to become the recognized leader in their category.
Investment: Custom setup ($) and starts around $2,595/month, with scope customized after a Strategy Audit (typical ramp‑up 1–3 months)
Pricing in CAD$ for Canadian businesses, USD$ for US businesses.
The logic:
▫ The more you invest, the faster you could reach your goals—because more strategy, content, and outreach are delivered each month.
▫ Tighter budget? We pace your growth—steady, measurable progress, without selling you extras you don't need.
Want to include your AI-employee team?
Add the Ai-employee suite to any Business Growth System package for USD$267/month.
Can I switch packages later?
Absolutely. Many clients start with Foundation, see results, and scale up to Growth within 8–12 months. You're never locked in.
How fast will I see results?
Most clients notice momentum—more calls, better-quality leads, easier conversations—within the first few months. Investment level affects speed: more monthly budget means faster deployment of key strategies.
Timeline Reality Check:
Lasting results require strategic build-up, especially without a massive ad budget.
And some factors are outside anyone's control: competitor activity, local market dynamics, how search engines and social platforms treat your business at any given moment.
What you get from us: Clear strategy. Consistent improvement. Honest timelines. No overnight miracles promised, just steady progress you can measure.
The more you invest, the faster we can deploy—but even at Foundation level, you're building momentum while competitors stay stuck in the "waiting for marketing budget" cycle.
🙋♂️ Please keep this in mind (so we stay friends): CharlieOpolis is responsible for building and running the systems—website, automations, AI tools, and tracking.
You’re responsible for your offer and how you use those systems day to day (following up, using the app, closing conversations, pricing, etc.).
Real‑world results will always vary by business, market, and location, so no specific outcomes are ever guaranteed—what you can count on is solid execution and steady improvement on the parts we control.
What’s included in each BGS package level?
Each Business Growth System is customized to your goals, market, and budget—not a rigid checklist.
The mix of strategy, website work, SEO, AI Employees, content, and campaigns changes based on where you'll see the fastest wins.
Simple logic: The more you invest, the faster you reach your goals—because more strategy, content, and outreach are delivered each month.
For example:
Foundation-level package focuses on essentials that move the needle first—core website improvements, one key web page or funnel each month, Google Business Profile, basic follow‑up—so you start generating steady, higher‑quality inquiries.
Growth and Leadership levels add more work each month—extra pages or funnel, campaigns, reviews system, content, ads, local sponsorships, deeper optimization—which accelerates momentum and helps you outpace competitors faster.
Want to see a sample breakdown of Foundation, Growth, and Leadership tiers? Send a message through the contact form or request a consult and we'll map out a custom plan for your business.
All BGS plans include the HighLevel platform (CRM, pipeline management, analytics and more).
What types of Local Businesses do you work with?
We work best with local service businesses that rely on steady, high-quality leads—and can show clear proof of their value through happy customers, strong reviews, and repeat business.
Here’s who gets the best results:
▫ Cleaning services (carpet cleaning, power washing, gutter cleaning, auto detailing, dog grooming)
▫ Wellness professionals (chiropractors, physiotherapists, gyms, spas)
▫ Home services (plumbers, electricians, HVAC, remodelers)
▫ Entertainment and activities (axe throwing, escape rooms, local event companies)
Basically, any business where showing before/after results, building reputation, and earning loyal, returning customers makes a real impact.
When We're NOT the Right Fit
We're selective about who we work with. You're probably not a good fit if:
▫ You need instant results (we build lasting systems, not quick hacks)
▫ You're not willing to invest at least $575/month consistently for 6+ months
▫ You want to micromanage every detail instead of trusting expert guidance
▫ Your business model is highly regulated B2B or national distribution (we specialize in local)
Sound like you? We're probably not a match. And that's okay—we'd rather be honest upfront than waste your time or ours.
If you're committed to growth, open to expert guidance, and ready to invest in your business's future? Let's talk.
How do I know this will work for my industry?
Business Growth Systems work for any business that depends on local customers—contractors, consultants, service providers, retail, wellness, professional services, you name it.
If your customers may find you by searching “your-type-of-business near me”, you are a great match.

What you control: Your offer, pricing, follow-up speed, sales process, service quality, and how you use those systems day to day.
What you can count on: Professional execution, continuous improvement, and systems designed to help you win more business. Specific outcomes are never guaranteed—what is guaranteed is that we show up, deliver, and optimize relentlessly.
Focused on results
20 years in digital marketing has taught us this: as a business owner, you don’t really want a website or SEO or listings management or any of our "deliverables".
👉 You want more customers and more sales.
That’s what matters.
Of course, we’ll use things like top-notch websites, Ai-tools, Google rankings, and powerful marketing strategies to reach your goals.
But tools and tactics are chosen because they're designed to help grow your business—not just to 'tick the box' or generate a monthly invoice.
That’s what sets us apart: You get a clear, results-focused plan using whatever tools could actually help you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I already have a website or some marketing in place?
Great! We'll audit what's working, fix what's not, and layer in AI tools and advanced strategies to amplify your results.
Can I start by just purchasing the software and see how far I get on my own?
Uh, yeah!
This is usually what bootstrapping solopreneurs choose when a full Business Growth System (even the $575/month Foundation level) isn’t in the cards yet.
If you’re technically inclined, comfortable with digital marketing, and know your way around tools like AI, CRMs, and web workflows, you could hit the ground running with just the platform.
Access to the HighLevel software is USD $67/month (the AI‑Employee Suite is optional and not included in that price).
That said, most businesses doing around $1M+/year with a small team get better results by treating us as their growth team—so they skip the learning curve, stay focused on operations, and scale faster with done‑for‑you execution.
If you prefer to DIY for now, you’re covered—and expert help is always available when you’re ready to turn your setup into a full Business Growth System.
Can I get started with just the AI chat and voice receptionists?
Yes. Plus, this is the fastest way to stop losing leads from missed calls without changing anything else yet.
The standalone AI-employee Suite subscription is USD$297/month, or USD$2847/year (roughly a 20% savings for paying annually).
Can I do the setup (for the Ai receptionists/agents) myself?
The process is complex, but if you’re tech-savvy (or have someone on your team who is), you’ll get step-by-step documentation at no extra cost. Set up your AI receptionist(s) to answer calls, handle chats, capture leads, and book appointments—your way.
If you’d rather skip the nuts and bolts (highly recommended for most owners), our team offers a full setup service. For a one-time fee (starting at USD$499), we'll handle everything: branded chat, forms, CRM pipeline and automations, plus onboarding, training, and a 30-day check-in.
Either way, you get instant access and full control—no waiting, no barriers.
Start with the basics and scale up anytime. In 2026, having AI employees is table stakes—don’t get left behind.
Why are some prices in CAD, but the software and AI tools are billed in USD?
Your monthly Business Growth System (the done‑for‑you marketing work) is always priced in your local currency: CAD$ for Canadian businesses and USD$ for U.S. businesses, so your core service investment matches your home market and stays easy to budget.
The software tools (access to the HighLevel CRM platform, the AI Employee Suite, etc.) are billed in USD because they run on a U.S.‑based SaaS platform whose own pricing and infrastructure costs are set in U.S. dollars. This is standard practice for modern software: many of the tools Canadian businesses rely on—CRMs, email platforms, AI tools, and more—charge in USD even when the customer is located in Canada.
For Canadian clients, paying USD for software is simply part of plugging into global‑grade tools: it avoids constant re‑pricing, keeps your software investment predictable, and lets you benefit from the same platform, features, and improvements used by businesses across North America—while your Business Growth System itself remains in CAD.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
No.
Month-to-month agreements. Continue as long as you're seeing results. Pause if you need to.
Business is dynamic—seasonality, cash flow, life happening—we get it. Flexibility matters.
That said, certain basic costs like the HighLevel platform fee or website hosting can't be paused. Your site needs to stay live so potential customers can still find you and you don't lose Google rankings. But all campaign and growth activity is up to you as needs or budget change.
Bottom line: You control the pace and the spend. No fine print, no pressure. We're here when you're ready to keep growing.
Do you work with businesses outside of Burlington (ON) and the GTA?
We're based in Burlington, ON and specialize in local service businesses across Halton, Hamilton, Niagara, and the GTA. Local market knowledge is a real asset—we understand your competitive landscape, seasonal patterns, and what actually resonates with your customers.
That said, if you're a local business anywhere in North America, reach out. We've worked with referral partners across the continent, and if your model relies on local customers (not national distribution), we can probably help. Let's talk and find out.
What happens after I reach out?
We start with a free consult to understand your goals.
You’ll get a clear strategy (with pricing) and then decide if you want to kick things off—no pressure, no obligation.
READY TO grow?

Every local business faces these challenges. The real advantage is tackling them head-on, one at a time, with expert guidance.

Don’t let another month slip by with the same old frustrations. Get ahead, get noticed, and build the client base your hard work deserves.
Let’s get started—your next customer could be one fix away.
