About CoreStak - Why We Built SmartSite for Small Service Businesses

We're Not Another Agency

We're the team that got tired of watching great small businesses struggle with websites that don't work and agencies that don't care.

The Essentials. No Bloat. Just Your Core Stack.

The Problem We Couldn't Ignore

"I spent $3,000 on a website and it looks great, but my phone's not ringing. The agency disappeared after launch, and now I'm stuck with this expensive business card that doesn't do anything for my business."

We heard this story too many times. Great businesses - licensed contractors, skilled tradespeople, trusted service providers - bleeding money on marketing that doesn't work.

Why We're Different From Every Other Agency

❌ Traditional Agencies

  • Sell you a website, disappear
  • Charge $3k-$10k upfront
  • Lock you into 6-12 month contracts
  • Can't guarantee any results
  • Make money whether you succeed or fail
  • Overwhelm you with reports you don't understand

✓ CoreStak's Approach

  • Build your site free, stick around for results
  • $0 upfront, just $97/month hosting
  • Cancel anytime, no questions asked
  • Guarantee 5+ reviews + more calls in 60 days
  • Only profit when you get results
  • Show you proof that matters: calls, reviews, customers

The Key Difference

Most agencies make money when they sell you something. We make money when that something actually works for your business. That changes everything.

What We Actually Care About

Small businesses don't need complicated marketing campaigns. They need three things, and we built SmartSite to deliver them:

📞

More Customers Calling

Mobile-first website. Click-to-call buttons everywhere. Missed call text-back system. Forms that actually work. Everything optimized to make your phone ring.

📋

More Jobs Booked

Reviews prominently displayed. Social proof that converts browsers into customers. Trust signals that make people confident to call you instead of your competitor.

🔄

More Business Coming Back

Automated review requests. Follow-up sequences for repeat business. Systems that turn one-time customers into lifetime relationships.

Everything else is noise. No complicated dashboards to learn. No monthly campaign management. No feature creep that costs you more money for things you'll never use.

The Team Behind SmartSite

We're a small team of designers, developers, and business strategists who've spent years watching small businesses get taken advantage of by the marketing industry.

Some of us come from traditional agencies. Some from tech companies. All of us got tired of building complex solutions for simple problems.

Our Shared Belief:

Small business owners are the backbone of the economy. They deserve marketing solutions that actually work, priced fairly, with real guarantees behind them.

(No headshots or bios here - you don't care what we look like. You care whether we can help your business grow. Judge us by our work and our guarantee.)

What We Believe

🎯 Results Over Process

We don't care if you never log into a dashboard. We care if your phone rings more and your reviews go up. That's it.

💰 Fair Pricing

Free to build. $97/month to run. No setup fees, no hidden costs, no nickel-and-diming for "premium features." One simple price.

🛡️ Real Guarantees

If you don't see 5+ new reviews + more calls in 60 days, we work for free until you do. Not fine print - a real promise.

🚫 No BS

No jargon. No upselling. No long-term contracts. Cancel anytime if we're not delivering. Your success is our only sales pitch.

📊 Measurable Impact

Every call tracked. Every form submission logged. Every review counted. You see exactly what your SmartSite delivers.

🤝 Long-Term Partnership

We don't profit unless you succeed and stay. That means we're incentivized to keep making your SmartSite better, not sell you more stuff.

Why We Can Offer a Real Guarantee (And Others Can't)

Most agencies can't guarantee results because they don't control the outcome. Ours is built differently:

🎯

We Control the Outcome

Your SmartSite isn't just a website - it's an automated system for generating calls and reviews. We know it works because we built it to work.

📈

We Track Everything

Call tracking, form submissions, review generation - every result is measured and reported. We can see problems before you even notice them.

💡

We're Incentivized to Succeed

If you don't get results, we work for free. If you cancel, we lose revenue. Our only path to profit is your success.

🔄

We Continuously Improve

Monthly check-ins, ongoing optimization, constant testing. Your SmartSite gets better over time, not worse.

Think of it this way: Traditional agencies make money when they sell you something. We make money when that something actually works for your business. That changes everything.
