Case Study

NRX Asphalt
A Site That Works as Hard as Tex Does.

Tex runs one of Columbus's best asphalt sealing operations. He was buried on page 3 of Google, losing jobs to competitors who were nowhere near as good.

The Challenge

The work was great.
Google didn't know it.

  1. 01

    Buried on page 3 for every search that mattered.

    4,000+ monthly Columbus asphalt searches, zero first-page presence. Competitors with inferior work were capturing every job Tex should have been winning.

    Full SEO architecture including schema, GBP optimization, and location pages targeting every Columbus service area.

  2. 02

    No Google Business Profile to speak of.

    Few reviews, incomplete information, photos from years ago. The GBP was invisible to anyone searching for asphalt work near them.

    Complete GBP rebuild, review collection automation, consistent posting schedule.

  3. 03

    An outdated site that made the business look small.

    Template design that undermined Tex's actual scale and experience. Nothing on the site communicated his 15+ years in the trade or the size of his operation.

    Brand identity and site rebuilt to communicate Tex's 15+ years and fleet-sized operation.

  4. 04

    Zero mobile optimization. Half the traffic was bouncing.

    60% of visitors were on mobile phones. Bounce rate north of 80%. The site was losing more than half its traffic before a single word was read.

    Mobile-first build, fast load times, tap-to-call prominent on every page.

  5. 05

    Leads came in but no follow-up system existed.

    Quote requests came in by email, responses took days. Competitors called back in minutes. NRX was losing jobs to slower businesses on paper alone.

    Automated lead response via CRM — prospects hear from NRX within 60 seconds of submitting.

Before
  • Page 3 on Google
  • Incomplete Google Business Profile
  • Outdated template site
  • 80% mobile bounce rate
  • No lead follow-up system

A site that made Tex's best-in-class operation invisible — while slower, less experienced competitors took every call.

After
New NRX Asphalt homepage Homepage

A site and system built for the way Columbus homeowners actually shop for asphalt work — fast, on a phone, comparing three options at once.

The Scope

Everything we shipped.

Brand Identity

Logo, wordmark, and brand system built around Tex's reputation for toughness and reliability — a look that communicates scale before a single word is read.

Full Site Rebuild

Every page built from zero. Homepage, services, location pages, contact — all structured around how Columbus homeowners search for and hire asphalt contractors.

Google Business Profile

Complete GBP rebuild with updated photography, review collection automation, and a consistent posting schedule that keeps NRX visible in the local pack.

Local SEO (13 location pages)

Schema markup, structured data, and 13 location-targeted service pages covering every Columbus neighborhood NRX serves. Built to rank and stay ranked.

CRM & Lead Automation

Automated lead response system — every new inquiry triggers a follow-up within 60 seconds. No more lost jobs because someone took two days to reply.

Mobile-First Performance

Built mobile-first from the ground up. Tap-to-call on every page, sub-2s load times, and a quote flow that converts on the 5-inch screen where 60% of traffic lives.

The Result

More jobs.
Better leads.

Tex went from page 3 to the map pack. Leads now arrive pre-qualified and respond within 60 seconds. More jobs, better jobs, less time chasing.

Before Aspire, we were buried on page 3. Now we get more calls in a week than we used to get in a month. Best investment this company has ever made.
