Industries / Painters

Marketing for painters that ends with the phone ringing.

Before anyone hires a painter for a full interior or exterior repaint, they check two things: who shows up first on Google, and who has the most reviews. The work itself comes third.

A real person reads every message.

Where the jobs go

Where painters lose work without knowing it.

Painting looks easy, so homeowners shop on trust. The painter with photos of real finished rooms and a stack of recent reviews wins, even at a higher price.

Paying for shared leads

Lead sites charge you for a "lead" that four other painter businesses also got. Whoever calls first wins, and you paid either way.

The better company loses

The painter with more reviews and photos gets the call, even when your work is better. Homeowners cannot see your work, only your listing.

ChatGPT picks three names

Homeowners planning a full interior or exterior repaint now ask ChatGPT who to hire. It names two or three local companies. Being one of them is a new job, and almost nobody is doing it yet.

What Vita does

What Vita does for a painter.

Everything a marketing hire would do, for $69/mo. You run it by text.

A website built to be found

A fast site with a page for every service and every town you work in, written around what customers actually search, like "house painters near me" and "exterior painting cost". You see it before you pay anything.

Named by Google and ChatGPT

Your Google profile filled out and kept active with photos and posts from your real jobs, and the details AI assistants use when someone asks for a painter.

Every missed call gets a text back

When you cannot pick up, the caller gets a text within seconds that answers their question and gets the job details, so they do not call the next painter.

Reviews from customers you already have

Your past customers get a personal thank-you that asks for a review, and the happy ones leave one. It is the fastest way to catch up to the painter with more stars.

What your customers type

  • “house painters near me”
  • “exterior painting cost”
  • “interior painter”
  • “cabinet painting”

Your site and profile get built around searches like these, in every town you serve.

Questions

Questions painters ask us.

How do painters get more customers from Google?

Three things move a painter up on Google: a complete, active Google Business Profile, a steady flow of recent reviews, and a website with a page for each service and town you work in. Vita does all three for you. For context, the median painter we looked at had 21 reviews, so even a few new ones a month makes a visible difference.

How do I get my painter business recommended by ChatGPT?

ChatGPT and other AI assistants recommend businesses they can find clear, consistent information about across the web: your website, your Google profile, your reviews and other listings. Vita builds and keeps those consistent, and checks what ChatGPT says about you in your area.

What does Vita cost for a painter?

$69/mo for everything, with two weeks free first. We build your website before you pay anything, there is no contract, and if you cancel you keep the website.

Do I need to learn new software?

No. You run it by text, the way you would run anyone who works for you. Nothing public goes out without your okay.
