GARRISON · MICROSITE SOFTWARE BY TROJAN

Garrison remodeling microsites.
Your brand. Your leads.

You're booked with small repair calls, you want more kitchens and additions, and the leads you buy keep landing with three other remodelers at the same moment.

Remodeling lead generation from Trojan Digital Marketing, based in Indianapolis, Indiana, builds Garrison microsites around the kitchens and additions your crew wants more of, with inquiries arriving under your own brand. It's for the remodeler who says, "I'm done paying for leads that three other contractors got too." In Fishers, where 76.2% of homes were owner-occupied in 2024, additions can lead the site.

Bring a short list of the remodeling projects you want more of and the ones you turn down. The first strategy call is free, and during business hours we aim to reply within five minutes.

  • Microsites scoped to the projects you take
  • Calls and forms routed to your team
  • Built on request for remodelers

Garrison is our own software, so the people planning your sites built the system your remodeling network runs on. We work from Indianapolis, Indiana, and a network covers only the markets you name. We have more than 1,400 live websites, and Jeff Clerisier, who has built websites since 2016, will tell you if a new section on your main site would serve you better than microsites.

For local businesses, regional teams, and national brands. Scoped around your target markets and the work your team can deliver.

FROM SEARCH TO YOUR TEAM

A customer has a question.
Your brand has a useful answer.

Is this the remodeler for the project I have in mind? A focused microsite connects that question to evidence, clear service information, and the right next step.

OWN YOUR LEAD SOURCE

Paid leads can be a channel.
Your website can be an asset.

Purchased leads depend on a provider’s terms. Paid advertising can send visitors to your own website. Organic microsite lead generation works by making useful pages discoverable for relevant searches. Each approach has costs and a role; an owned microsite can support paid and organic traffic together.

Build a library of authorized project stories and practical planning guides that helps future prospects assess fit. That is the practical idea behind compounding organic growth: later improvements build on useful work already in place. It requires maintenance and does not guarantee rising lead volume or rankings.

Compare organic leads, paid leads, and ownership

THE REMODELING MICROSITE PLAN

Trojan Digital Marketing builds remodeling microsites for brands that want an organic lead channel they can retain and improve. We work with remodeling businesses nationwide, with each network scoped around approved markets, a clear project offer, and a practical consultation process. The starting point is a market fit review that connects your growth priorities to the projects your team wants to win.

A homeowner researching a kitchen layout has different questions from a tenant planning a commercial interior. Both may eventually become valuable inquiries, but each needs a relevant route. We scope owned lead systems around those decisions so that content, calls, and follow up support the work your company actually wants and has capacity to deliver.

Define the project mix before choosing the network

The first deliverable is a project acceptance brief. We document your preferred work, exclusions, travel coverage, design responsibilities, estimating process, and capacity constraints. Kitchen and bath renovation, additions, whole home work, and tenant improvements should appear only when your business genuinely accepts them. The brief becomes the reference for page content and intake decisions.

We then examine the destinations you already control. A strong primary website may need a focused resource section rather than another domain. A separate microsite becomes useful when it serves a distinct audience or decision with enough original substance to stand alone. Our microsite network service covers that architecture and the operating responsibilities it creates.

Match each asset to a buyer decision

An owned network needs an understandable purpose for every destination. A kitchen planning resource might help readers compare keeping the footprint with changing it. An addition resource can explain the information needed before a feasibility conversation. A commercial resource can help a tenant distinguish property authority, design scope, and an intended opening date. These are project preparation tools, not remote construction determinations.

The content map shows what each resource owns, how it connects to the contractor’s main service pages, and what a visitor can do next. We avoid multiplying pages that repeat the same offer with different place names. Google’s spam policies identify doorway and scaled content abuse; each proposed destination therefore needs independent usefulness and an honest business identity.

Build qualification into a useful conversation

The initial inquiry should ask for enough information to choose the next step without turning into an estimating questionnaire. Typical fields include project location, work category, the problem the owner wants to solve, current planning stage, and preferred contact method. Photos and plans can be optional when your team has a suitable way to receive and protect them.

We separate an inquiry from a qualified consultation. A person requesting an immediate start is not automatically a fit for a company whose design calendar is full. A small fixture replacement may be outside a design build firm’s scope. Clear routing can provide a helpful response while keeping unsuitable work out of the active estimate queue.

Define access and the handover.
Make account access explicitDomain, website, analytics and customer records need clear ownership and a workable handover.

Ownership should be visible in accounts and agreements. The scope can specify contractor control of domain registration, website content, analytics access, CRM records, approved photography, and account recovery. Third party software, licensed images, and subscriptions need their own terms. Paying for a site does not by itself establish every right required to operate or move it.

We document administrator roles, billing responsibility, renewals, backups, and a transfer procedure. The contractor should understand which resources remain usable if an agency relationship ends. Our ownership and attribution guide provides a detailed inventory to review with your existing providers before a migration or new build.

Connect discovery to sales without overstating attribution

Reporting can connect known landing pages, source information, calls, and forms to an inquiry record. The sales team then records contact, fit, consultation, estimate, and project outcomes using agreed definitions. Duplicate inquiries should join the existing opportunity when they refer to the same project, rather than inflate the apparent number of new leads.

Some owners return on another device, use a bookmarked page, or call after a referral. Those paths can leave incomplete attribution. We preserve known first and later touches, label self reported discovery separately, and allow unknown source values. The goal is evidence you can use to allocate effort, not a dashboard that assigns certainty to every job.

What a scoped engagement can include

A first phase can produce an asset audit, project acceptance brief, content map, ownership schedule, and measurement design. The implementation phase can then create or improve agreed destinations, prepare contractor approved resources, connect forms and calls, and configure the handoff. Deliverables and dependencies belong in the proposal so that your team knows what it must supply.

Approval criteria should be concrete: approved service facts appear correctly, mobile forms reach the intended recipient, CRM records preserve the chosen fields, external references support the adjacent claims, and project examples have permission. A marketing launch is not permission to publish customer photographs or imply expertise your company has not established.

A hypothetical kitchen and addition pathway

Imagine a contractor that accepts complete kitchens and additions but does not perform small repair visits. A visitor reads a footprint comparison, saves a planning checklist, and returns later with an addition question. The system can preserve the relationship while changing the opportunity category after a real conversation. It should not create two supposedly independent prospects from that journey.

The sales owner confirms whether the customer needs design exploration, has existing plans, or needs another type of provider. Content can explain those stages in advance. This example illustrates an intended workflow; it is not a Trojan client result, a prediction of conversion, or a claim that a form can establish construction feasibility.

Maintain the assets so they can keep helping buyers

Useful resources can accumulate opportunities for repeat discovery as buyers return, share a worksheet, or find a more specific answer. That potential depends on continued relevance, working technology, fresh project evidence, and a team that responds. Domain ownership alone does not create demand, and publishing a network does not guarantee rankings, inquiries, or revenue.

Maintenance includes reviewing accepted project types, broken contact routes, capacity language, source links, duplicate topics, and stale examples. The maintenance guide explains how to assign that work. When two resources perform the same job, consolidation may serve buyers better than adding another page to the network.

Decide whether this service fits your company

This service fits a remodeling business willing to define its offer, contribute real expertise, and maintain a sales process. A company still changing its service area or unable to respond to inquiries may first need a smaller scope. We can start with the clearest project category and expand when operating evidence supports the next useful asset.

For the full contractor marketing relationship, explore remodeling marketing or general contractor marketing. The owned remodeling lead guide explains the planning method. To discuss implementation, bring your current websites, preferred project mix, account access questions, and the point where inquiries currently lose momentum.

Match the microsite to the project conversation

A national growth strategy still needs specific buyer journeys. Start with the project category and audience the remodeling brand can serve well, then decide which markets and destinations belong in the agreed network scope.

Project audienceMicrosite resourceUseful inquiry context
Homeowner weighing a kitchen redesign
Footprint choices, design stage preparation, and examples the contractor may publish
Goals, planning stage, and the role expected of the design team
Owner exploring an addition
Questions to prepare for a feasibility conversation and a clear explanation of the contractor’s process
Intended use, existing plans, and who will participate in the discussion
Business planning an interior project
Scope responsibilities, occupancy constraints, and project authority questions
Decision maker, property role, and timing considerations

These scenarios help a remodeling brand choose a useful first microsite and a realistic sequence for the network. They do not require separate domains for every project label. Use approved experience, search intent, and the actual sales process to decide where a dedicated destination improves the buyer’s path. Request a remodeling microsite market fit review with the audiences and markets your brand wants to pursue.

Plan the network around your brand’s next market

A market fit review is the first step toward a scoped microsite proposal. Bring the markets you want to pursue, the websites you already control, your approved service offer, and the capacity behind it. We use that brief to identify the first useful destination, the content and inquiry routes it needs, and the responsibilities that make the network maintainable. Discuss your remodeling microsite plan or explore the owned lead generation approach.

For a remodeling brand with a distinct window installation offer, the window replacement microsite plan shows how that audience needs its own offer and handoff. Separate the service responsibilities clearly when more than one trade shares a brand.

Questions about remodeling microsites.

How much do remodeling microsites cost?

Remodeling networks are priced after the free strategy call, because they're built on request with the scope and timing agreed first. For a sense of scale, Garrison memberships in the trades with current offers start at $399 a month for 50 microsites. Remodeling isn't on that list yet, so its price depends on how many markets and project types you want covered.

Why build microsites when I can buy remodeling leads?

Because a microsite answers a homeowner's planning questions under your company name and sends the inquiry only to your team. Purchased leads follow the seller's terms, so you don't control who else receives the same homeowner. You can still run both for a while, and a microsite network can sit alongside paid ads as well.

Which remodeling projects should the microsites cover?

Only the ones you actually accept. Before a page gets written, we list the projects you want more of, the ones you refuse and how far your crews will drive. A site for homeowners weighing a kitchen layout needs different pages from one for a tenant planning an office build out, so each gets its own route to your team.

Do remodeling microsites need a different offer in each town?

Often, yes, because budgets change a lot from one market to the next. Brownsburg's median household income is above 100,000 dollars in recent Census estimates, while Indianapolis city sits near 66,000. A whole-house remodel page may fit one market, and a phased kitchen update may be the better first offer in the other.

How long does a remodeling network take to launch?

The timing is agreed before the build starts, since remodeling networks are built on request. It depends on how many markets and project types you choose, and on how quickly you can send photos and approve project stories. We won't guess at a launch date before the free strategy call, because a guess wouldn't help you schedule crews.

What if the microsites don't bring in projects?

You'll see it in your own inquiry records, since calls and forms go straight to your team. Organic growth takes upkeep and nobody can promise rankings, so project pages that draw no planning questions get reworked or dropped. If a market still isn't worth keeping after that, we'll say so plainly.

Do you build remodeling microsites outside Indiana?

Yes. Remodeling networks are built on request for the markets you pick, with scope and timing agreed before any site goes up. We won't build sites for towns your crews can't reach, since an inquiry you can't take wastes the homeowner's afternoon and yours.

Start a change request with the version the homeowner means

A remodeling change needs a link to the current request and a clear account of what is different. Keep the person's proposed change visible until the business responds.

  1. Find the existing question Ask for a reference the office can use to locate the earlier conversation. We can discuss a field suited to your actual records. It should avoid asking the homeowner to recall an internal project number they were never given. If staff can't find a reliable connection, leave that link pending while they clarify it.
  2. Name the requested change Have the person describe what they want to revise in plain words. A new feature may affect more than its appearance, but the website should avoid deciding those effects. Our form discussion can preserve the request without turning it into the remodeler's accepted design or scope. Staff still need to answer the proposed change.
  3. Identify who supplied it Keep the source of the new note visible. We suggest retaining the homeowner's name or business-approved reference in the proper receiving record. A forwarded message can lose who actually requested the revision. The office may need that context before it knows whom to contact about the change.
  4. Show which answer is pending Give staff a place to record the issue they need to resolve. We can discuss whether that status belongs in the customer-facing message or only the internal record. The business's process determines the next action. A submitted revision should not appear approved merely because it passed through a form.

A new inquiry and a change to an existing request can look similar on a website. The office needs a way to distinguish them when that affects follow-up. We can discuss a short entry question or a separate route if your business uses one. Keep the original project account accessible so the new note doesn't erase why the person first contacted you.

Ask the staff member handling changes to explain a recent anonymized confusion. Was the earlier request missing, was the revision unclear or did two people give opposing instructions? We suggest shaping the website task around that specific gap. A larger form won't help if it still sends the change without the information the office needs to place it.

Can the customer amend every field?
The business should decide which details can be proposed through this route and which require a conversation. We can discuss that boundary before designing the fields. A contact preference may be straightforward, while a design change may need more input. Keep the route's purpose clear so a simple update doesn't imply a broader approval.
What if the earlier request cannot be found?
Retain the new note and ask staff to establish its relationship. We suggest a visible pending link rather than a guessed match. The person can still be contacted about the question. A record that looks complete while pointing to the wrong project is harder to correct than an honest unresolved reference.

Resolve conflicting preferences before sending an instruction to production

Several household members can supply useful preferences without having agreed on one direction. The business needs a clear source for the instruction it accepts.

Requested changeThe person's wording and date received.Whether the business can accept the revision.
Approval ownerThe role the business uses for final direction.Who resolves opposing instructions before work proceeds.
Should every household member send separate notes?
The business can accept input while asking one agreed contact to return a settled instruction. We suggest discussing how that contact is chosen under the actual project process. The website should preserve who supplied a note without making a legal claim about their authority. Conflicting preferences need a response from the responsible people rather than an editor's guess.
Can a preferred feature become the accepted change automatically?
Keep the preference in the request stage until the company takes its own action. We can discuss labels that show that distinction. A customer may like a picture while still needing to understand the available option and its implications. The website's receipt should avoid making that preference sound like an agreed instruction.
What should happen to opposing comments?
Keep both available to the business where appropriate and mark the direction awaiting resolution. Our interface work can give the receiving person a usable summary of that gap. The company should decide how it seeks a settled answer. Sending both comments as if each were approved merely moves the conflict into the next stage.

The Westfield Roofer capture shows another contractor's headline and contact choices. We can use it to discuss whether a trade website makes its first action visible. It doesn't establish a remodeling approval process or a shared client relationship. Your own household communication and project commitments must come from the actual remodeler's arrangement with the customer.

Describe the part of a reference image the customer wants to discuss

A reference picture needs context about the feature of interest. It should not become a promise that the contractor can reproduce every visible part of the pictured project.

  • Ask what drew the homeowner to the image. We can discuss a prompt that separates a general mood from a specific requested feature.
  • Retain where the image came from if the business needs that information. A customer-supplied photograph shouldn't be labeled as the remodeler's completed work.
  • Keep a product name in the reference as reported until the business verifies it. Our content discussion should avoid guessing a material from appearance alone.
  • Let the customer send an explanation without an image when that serves the office's next task. A picture requirement can exclude a perfectly understandable written question.
  • If the image changes, connect the new file to the revision it supports. We suggest keeping the earlier reference identifiable under the business's record process.
Can we publish a customer-supplied reference in a project story?
The business needs appropriate permission and accurate context before publication. We can discuss how approved material is described, but receiving a file doesn't establish its rights. Keep a proposed reference separate from evidence of work actually completed by the contractor. A finished-looking picture can still represent somebody else's project.
What if the customer expects an exact match?
Preserve that expectation as a question for the company to address. Our website should avoid resolving it with a broad promise. The business must establish what it offers and what it can propose for the actual project. A short field can ask what matters most without claiming the photographed result is available.

An attachment has to remain associated with the change it explains. We can discuss a marked submission that checks the saved image and the customer's note together. A receiving inbox full of unnamed pictures gives staff extra reconstruction work. The acceptance question is whether the proposed route carries enough context for the office to answer the real request.

Keep the remodeler's unanswered part of the revision explicit

A proposed change may raise a business question the website cannot settle. Record that question and name who supplies the answer before the request moves forward.

Should the form estimate what the change will cost?
Use only a calculation the business has approved and that the available information supports. We don't invent a revision price from a reference photo. Our marketing quote can identify the field and handoff work needed for the request. The contractor handles its own project pricing and any agreement about the proposed change.
Can a field promise the same project finish date?
The remodeler needs to determine what the revision affects under its actual process. We can discuss a message that accurately describes receipt and the next staff action. A website shouldn't preserve an earlier date as though the new request has already been assessed. The company must supply any approved timing statement.
What if a new feature is outside the offer?
Let the business apply its service rule and record the answer. We suggest keeping the original request available rather than silently replacing it with a different project category. The page may need clearer boundaries if staff repeatedly receive the same misunderstanding. That content correction is a separate task from accepting the added work.
  1. Name the changed part Identify which detail the customer wants to revise. We can discuss a field that lets the office locate that part without treating the whole earlier request as discarded.
  2. Record the open question Ask the receiving person what they still need to decide or clarify. Our record can show that task without inventing its eventual answer.
  3. Keep the accepted direction distinct When the business actually responds, preserve the direction it approves. A proposed update and an accepted update should remain distinguishable in the customer and staff views.

This detail affects the website assignment as well. A route that merely receives a note may need less work than one that updates an existing record with version history. Tell us which behavior your staff need. We can discuss that package from your actual tools and access. Avoid comparing proposals as if both include the same change-handling task when their receiving paths differ.

Walk a fictional feature revision through both views

A hypothetical feature change can expose a mismatch between customer intent and the staff notice. Keep the exercise clearly labeled and leave the project outcome open.

Hypothetical example A fictional Indianapolis, Indiana household sends an unsettled remodeling feature change

Before

  • In this invented exercise, a homeowner changes a preferred cabinet feature after an earlier project conversation. Another household member sends a reference image with a different preference. The website accepts both notes but replaces the first request with the most recent entry. Staff see one selected feature with no sign that the direction is disputed.
  • A general success message tells the household the change is confirmed. No company decision in this scenario supports that message. We would flag the lost earlier request and the unearned approval separately. The reference picture doesn't settle which preference the household wants or which work the remodeler can offer.

After

  • The proposed route keeps the original request connected to both notes. The receiving view identifies the open direction question and the agreed contact the business uses to resolve it. We can test that record with marked sample data. The customer message accurately states the action taken, without implying the design change has been accepted.
  • A later settled instruction belongs to the contractor's actual project process. Our exercise claims no construction decision or customer result. It lets an owner inspect whether the website preserved the disagreement and gave staff a usable next task. The picture remains a reference whose specific feature needs explanation.

The existing Texas Journeyman Prep calculator supplies a real labeled-input example for this chapter. We can inspect how its distinct planning fields help identify a task. It doesn't demonstrate remodeling change approval. Your own form needs words that reflect whether a person is submitting a preference, amending a question or receiving a staff-approved direction.

  • Label every sample note as a test and keep it distinguishable from an actual project update. We suggest agreeing that label with the office.
  • Inspect the earlier request after the second note arrives. Our check should show whether the necessary history remains available.
  • Have staff explain the open direction question in plain words. A successful receipt alone doesn't demonstrate that the revision is ready for the next project stage.

Give the next staff member a version they can identify

An accepted change needs a clear connection to the project record it updates. Preserve who answered the request and which version the business actually approved.

What should the staff handoff include?
Include the changed detail, the accepted direction and the unresolved questions the next person needs. We can discuss that information with the staff who use it. A note saying customer change done may conceal a question that still affects the next action. The useful handoff lets someone continue without rebuilding the conversation from memory.
How do we handle a further revision?
Preserve the accepted version and record the new proposal as another requested change. We suggest checking the relationship before linking it. A second note can be a correction to the first or a different idea. The business should establish which it is. Automatically overwriting the latest accepted detail can remove the context staff need.
What confirms the website task is complete?
Use a marked request that demonstrates the agreed behavior in the actual receiving system. We can discuss who checks that result and what remains open. The marketing task may be complete while the fictional project direction is still pending. Keep those states separate so a delivery check doesn't become a construction approval.
How can we start this discussion with Trojan?
Bring the update your current route handles badly and describe what the office needs to do next. We can discuss the proposed change path from our Indianapolis, Indiana location. An anonymized note is enough to explain many interface problems. Your remodeler still supplies the project terms and the facts behind any customer commitment.

Ask how future changes to the receiving team will be maintained. A revised contact or record field can affect this path after the initial website work is finished. We can discuss the relevant maintenance tasks in the package. Keep those tasks concrete, so the owner can assess them without relying on a promise about more remodeling inquiries or a faster construction project.
