Local Business Climate
Indianapolis is the 16th-largest city in the United States with a 2.1-million-person metro area. Eli Lilly's $13 billion+ LEAP Innovation District in Lebanon is the largest pharmaceutical manufacturing investment in U.S. history. The $600 million Signia by Hilton convention hotel, the $330 million Elanco global headquarters, and a booming residential market are keeping the development pipeline full across Central Indiana.
Seasonal Considerations
Indianapolis has four distinct seasons with a compressed busy season running April through November. Winters bring freezing temperatures, snow, and freeze-thaw cycles. The frost line is approximately 30 inches. Spring thaw creates annual repair demand for foundations, concrete, and roofing. Severe thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes during spring and summer can cause property damage and create restoration demand.

The Real Problem
Customers in Indianapolis search Google before they buy.
They're not finding you.
$13 billion Lilly campus. $600 million hotel. Are you in the pipeline?
Central Indiana has one of the largest development pipelines in the Midwest. Customers research businesses online. Your website and Google presence are how you get on their short list.
2.1 million people in the metro, and competition is growing with the market.
Indianapolis's economic growth is attracting new contractors. Without strong a strong Google presence, you are invisible to the customers and GCs searching for your services.
You have seven months to fill a twelve-month revenue goal.
Indianapolis's economic development season runs April through November. Businesses that rank on Google by March are booked through fall. Winter is the time to invest in marketing.
No state GC license means anyone can compete for your jobs.
Indiana doesn't require a state general business license. The businesses that differentiate are the ones with professional websites, strong reviews, and visible Google presence. Not just the ones with the lowest bids.
The businesses getting the calls in Indianapolis didn't get there by accident. They invested in their Google ranking.
