🔴 HIGH · re: Cornhusker Drain Specialists — Drain cleaning price dropped from $189 → $99 (limited-time offer)

| ☐ |
Run a "same-day appointment guarantee" Google Local Service Ad this week. Target Missouri River Trenchless' geo. Mention "we show up when we say we will" in your ad copy without naming competitors.
🔴 HIGH · re: Missouri River Trenchless — Three 1-star reviews this week mention "no-show" appointments
|
|
| ☐ |
Add online booking to your homepage. Even a an online booking widget with "available in next 2 hours" tags converts better than a phone-only CTA for under-40 customers.
🟡 MEDIUM · re: Old Market Pipes & Plumbing — Launched online booking with same-day available slots visible
|
|
| ☐ |

🔴 HIGH PRIORITY
Drain cleaning price dropped from $189 → $99 (limited-time offer)
📰 News

Three 1-star reviews this week mention "no-show" appointments
📰 News
Missouri River Trenchless Omaha received three 1-star Google reviews in the past 7 days, all citing missed appointment windows. One reviewer waited 4 hours; another says the dispatcher hung up.
