Sound familiar?

You're great at the work. The business side leaks.

Missed calls go to the next guy

You're on a job, the phone rings, and that customer books someone else.

Your website isn't bringing in work

It's slow, outdated, or built on a plan you pay for every month with nothing to show.

Competitors show up first

On Google Maps, in search, and now in ChatGPT and AI answers.

Admin eats your nights

Quotes, invoices, follow-ups and review requests all done by hand.

Services

Five ways we tighten up your business

Start with one or do all five. Every project starts with a free audit, so you know what's worth fixing before you spend a dollar.

01

Websites that bring in work

Fast, hand-built sites that look modern and are set up to rank. You own the site and the domain.

  • Service and town pages
  • Built for 100 PageSpeed scores
  • Low or no monthly hosting cost
02

Google Business & local SEO

Get on the map in the towns you serve, with a profile that turns searches into calls.

  • Google Business Profile setup
  • Services, photos and posts
  • Bing Places and Search Console
03

AI search visibility

More customers are asking ChatGPT and Google AI who to hire. We make sure your business is in the answer.

  • Structured data and llms.txt
  • AI crawler access
  • Directory and review strategy
04

Booking, CRM & automation

Let customers book online, text back missed calls automatically, and stop chasing invoices and reviews by hand. We set up tools like Jobber and wire them into your site.

  • Online booking and request forms
  • Missed-call text-back
  • Invoice and review reminders
05

Business systems tune-up

A working session on how you price, quote, schedule and get paid, then a short list of fixes ranked by how much time or money each one saves.

  • Pricing and quoting review
  • Workflow and tool cleanup
  • A plan you can actually follow

Recent work

How it works

Simple, and priced up front

Free audit

We look at your website, Google listing, reviews and how jobs come in, then show you where business is leaking.

Clear plan

A short list of fixes, ranked by impact, with a fixed price for each. No retainers you don't need.

Build & launch

We do the work, test it, and hand you the keys: logins, files and a simple guide.

Keep it flowing

Optional monthly check-ins on rankings, reviews and leads, with updates as your business grows.

lotic (adj.): of flowing water. Rivers, not ponds.

About

Built by a business owner, for business owners

I'm Christopher Hollis. I started Lotic Irrigation in 2020 and grew it to thousands of jobs across Northern Colorado.

Along the way I learned that the work is only half of it. The other half is getting found, answering fast, quoting right and getting paid. I built those systems for my own company, then for other businesses. Lotic Digital is how I help other owners do the same, in plain English and without the agency markup.

Based in Fort Collins, Colorado. Latinx-owned.

FAQ

Good questions

Do I own my website?

Yes. The domain, the files and every login are in your name. If you ever leave, you take everything with you.

Will I be stuck paying a monthly fee?

No. Most of the sites we build are hosted for free or close to it. Monthly support is optional and month-to-month.

Do you only work with contractors?

Service businesses are our specialty, like trades, landscaping, cleaning and home services, but the same systems work for most small businesses.

Do I have to be in Colorado?

No. We meet in person in Northern Colorado and work remotely with businesses anywhere in the U.S.

How long does a website take?

Most small business sites launch in one to three weeks, depending on how many pages you need and how quickly we get your photos and details.

What happens on the free audit?

A short call where we review your website speed, your Google listing, how you show up in AI search, and how leads reach you. You leave with a ranked list of fixes, whether you hire us or not.
