TheFinalCode.com · Pool Service Case Study

Pool service grew 400% in 24 months.
Here is how.

In 2024, Dillon Brooks of Primary Pool Services was servicing about 40 pools across his route. Two years later: 200+ pools, a fleet of vans, and a seven-figure company.

He had the business expertise. We built the marketing plan. Put the two together, and this is what happens.We turn your vision into digital reality.

Dive in
The Short Version

Two years ago, Dillon Brooks of Primary Pool Services had about 40 pools on his service route, and customers who loved him.

Online, he only existed for his own name. Not for the hundreds of search terms people type every single day looking for exactly what he does.

Year one, 2024, we laid the foundation. His revenue grew more than 25%. Not clicks. Revenue.

So year two he doubled down. More content, more video, and a turtle named Tim. Forty pools became 200+, and a five-figure operation became a seven-figure company.

Before hiring us: 12 visits a month from Google. That was the whole thing.
Today: hundreds of visits a month.

The Business

Dillon and his crew, the customers adore

Primary Pool Services takes care of pools across Ventura County and the west end of LA County.

They send photos after every visit, and they answer the phone when something breaks at seven on a Saturday. Once people switch, they stay.

2024 · Where He Started

There were so many places to be found. He was invisible in nearly all of them.

12Before: 12 visits a month from Google in total.
2Search terms that found him, and both were his own name: Primary Pool Services, Dillon Brooks.
0Everything else. Nowhere on any list a customer was actually looking at.
Before: his old site

His old website in 2024. It didn’t look great, but the real problem was that nobody ever saw it.

After: the site we built

His new website in 2026, showing up for hundreds of search terms, more inviting, and it actually looks like a pool company.

The Difference Maker

Dillon Brooks. An ambitious owner who leaned in.

Dillon and the Primary Pool Services crew

Dillon gets up every day trying to figure out how he can be the number one pool guy in his service area, bar none. He never planned to stay small.

Here is the honest version: he already had the business expertise. He knew the work, he knew the customers, and he ran a tight operation. What he was missing was a marketing plan and a company to build it with.

Put those two things together and you have a winning combination. That is really the whole story.

The Problem

Every search is its own list. He was on almost none of them.

People do not all type the same thing. Everybody phrases it their own way, and every phrasing is its own separate search.

When somebody in his service area searched, Dillon did not pull up. Somebody else did.

Year One · 2024 · The Foundation

So we leaned in together

He came to us in 2024 and we said: let’s get you on every one of those searches.

We laid the foundation to make him relevant for literally hundreds of search terms across every service, in every city.

Mapping the service area city by city

City by city. Every one has its own list of pool companies.

A new website. Professional, fast, built to be found on a phone, with the video woven into it.

Content built to be found, then consumed. Marketing gets eyeballs on the site. After that you have to hold them.

Into every city, one at a time. You build into every one and show what makes his service different.

100% relevant, every time. Whatever somebody searched, the page they land on matches it exactly, never mixed and never diluted.

How We Work

One place is not a plan. You have to be everywhere they are.

Dedicated pages

Every service, in every city, gets its own page, a dedicated spot built for each search, not one page trying to do everything.

Google Business Profile

The map pack is where local customers actually find a pool guy. Every video and every update goes there too.

YouTube and social

Every video lives on YouTube and gets cut for Facebook and Instagram, right where people scroll all day.

Mailers and email

Print drops pointing back to the page, and email keeping him in front of past and current customers.

Every channel pulls at once, so no single dead end can hide him.

25%+Revenue growth in 2024, year one
Revenue. Not clicks. Not traffic.
And then Dillon leaned in harder

The first year he just wanted to get in there, and his first twelve months with us paid off.

That gave him the confidence that he was doing the right thing, and the appetite to build more. So he came back and asked: what do we do now?

“Those guys at TheFinalCode.com are rockin’. Our business has never been so strong.”

Year Two · 2025 · The Multiplier

Turtle Tim goes to work

People do not read anymore. They watch. Pool cleaning is not exciting to read about, so we brought Turtle Tim to life to carry the message. Dillon and the crew do the work; Tim does the talking.

The Takeaway

Is your business better than your website makes it look?

01

Your website is a retail location. Location, location, location is still the whole game. Online, your location is the search somebody just typed, and either you are standing there or your competitor is.

02

You show up. You do good work. Your customers trust you. But none of that is what a customer sees first. Your competitors just show up in more places. Online, that is the same as being better.

03

Getting to the top of a competitive market takes nerve. You fight past the noise, climb into the top three where buyers look first, and stay vigilant month after month. Placement gets you found. Engagement keeps you there.

If your service is better than your visibility, we can fix that.
Ready When You Are

Are you going to be a pool guy, or the pool company in your area?

★★★★★Five-star rated by the pool owners we work with

Dillon had the expertise. We built the plan. All it took on his end was the desire to lean in.

This is not for the timid or the faint-hearted. A seven-figure pool company never is. But he did it.

Dillon worked diligently with us at The Final Code as we identified the terms and built his relevance, and that is why he grew 400%. You can do the same. Are you ready to lean in?
