Service Foxx rewrites your website around what homeowners actually type into Google, finishes your Google Business Profile top to bottom, adds the code Google needs to read your pages, and publishes new content every month — all done for you.
Yes. Service Foxx integrates with both. Most contractors keep their existing field service software for job management and use Service Foxx for the CRM, automation, lead follow-up, and review requests those platforms don't provide.
Your website is live in about a month and your CRM is running by month two, once the phone carriers approve your business. Publishing starts from month three. The Google side usually takes another 8 to 12 weeks after your site goes live, so plan on real four or five.
