# Trades.Solutions > Trades.Solutions is a digital marketing and business consulting service for trades and home-service businesses in Canada. We are not a contractor and do not install, repair or service anything. Owners of Canadian trades and home-service businesses stuck with too few leads, poor leads, thin reviews or no time to market Trades.Solutions is part of the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group of companies, a Canadian business headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, led by Ali Sedighi, MBA. Coverage: Canada. Contact: call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca. There are no forms: call, text or email only. ## Key pages - [Home](https://trades.solutions/): Trades.Solutions starts with a diagnosis, not a package. We work out whether your real problem is lead volume, lead quality, reviews or owner time, and fix that one before spending on anything else. - [Services](https://trades.solutions/services/): Every service here is built around one of four problems trades owners describe. Start with the one that costs you the most money each month; the others usually get easier once it is fixed. - [Areas](https://trades.solutions/areas/): We work with trades businesses in every province and territory. The four problems are national, but climate, language rules, regulators and rebate programs change which one bites hardest and when. - [About](https://trades.solutions/about/): Trades.Solutions exists because most trades owners are sold a product when what they need is a diagnosis. We are a Canadian marketing and business consulting service, part of the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group, led by Ali Sedighi, MBA. - [Results](https://trades.solutions/results/): These results all come from HVAC and heating companies, where our method was built. We group them by the four problems this site deals with and explain what carries over to other trades. - [Pricing](https://trades.solutions/pricing/): Fixing one problem starts at $1,999 a month, which drops to $1,499 a month if you pay annually; Canadian clients add GST/HST based on their province. Every plan is month-to-month with 30 days' notice, and the first 30-minute consultation is free for eligible trades businesses. - [FAQ](https://trades.solutions/faq/): These are the questions owners actually ask us, usually in the first five minutes of a call. The answers are short because the questions are fair. - [Contact](https://trades.solutions/contact/): Call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca, with the one problem that bothers you most. Our hours: Mon–Fri 9–6 Pacific. ## Services - [Bad leads](https://trades.solutions/services/bad-leads/): Bad leads are rarely bad luck. They come from broad targeting, vague messaging and nobody tracking which sources produce real jobs. All three can be fixed. - [No reviews](https://trades.solutions/services/no-reviews/): Happy customers rarely refuse a review; they just aren't asked, or are asked too late. A timed request with a direct link, sent with consent, fixes most review shortages within a season. - [No time](https://trades.solutions/services/no-time/): Owners who market in bursts after slow months pay more for worse results. We take over the weekly work and leave you with about 30 minutes a week of decisions only you can make. - [Not enough leads](https://trades.solutions/services/not-enough-leads/): When a trades business says it needs more leads, about half the time it is losing the ones it already gets. We find and close those leaks first, then add only the channels your trade actually needs. ## Coverage - [Alberta](https://trades.solutions/areas/alberta/): Alberta trades face sharp seasonal spikes, two large and very different metros, and a strict line on who can pull certain permits. The no-time problem usually comes first, then lead quality. - [British Columbia](https://trades.solutions/areas/british-columbia/): BC trades businesses on the coast usually struggle with competition and lead quality, while Interior and Northern businesses struggle with distance and wrong-area calls. Here is how we approach each. - [Manitoba](https://trades.solutions/areas/manitoba/): Most Manitoba search demand sits in Winnipeg, the heating season is among the longest in southern Canada, and active heat pump rebates shape what customers ask for. Lead quality and owner time are the usual first fixes. - [New Brunswick](https://trades.solutions/areas/new-brunswick/): New Brunswick trades work across three similar-sized cities and many smaller towns, often in both English and French. Heat pumps are already common, so the market is about service and replacement as much as new installs. - [Newfoundland and Labrador](https://trades.solutions/areas/newfoundland-and-labrador/): Most demand sits around St. John's, the island's heating season is long, and takeCHARGE's oil-to-electric incentive is driving conversion enquiries. Lead quality and owner time are the usual first fixes. - [Nova Scotia](https://trades.solutions/areas/nova-scotia/): Nova Scotia has one dominant metro, a large share of oil-heated homes and fast-changing rebate programs. Lead quality suffers most when programs change, and reviews matter in the smaller communities. - [Ontario](https://trades.solutions/areas/ontario/): Ontario's large cities make online competition intense and broad targeting expensive. Lead quality and reviews are usually the first fixes, and electrical businesses face a specific rule about who may advertise. - [Prince Edward Island](https://trades.solutions/areas/prince-edward-island/): On PEI, the market is small and connected, so reputation is everything and wasted ad spend is easy. Reviews and owner time are usually the first fixes, and recent rebate closures need updating in your marketing. - [Quebec](https://trades.solutions/areas/quebec/): In Quebec, French must clearly predominate in commercial advertising, contractors need an RBQ licence, and electric heat dominates. A marketing fix that ignores those three facts creates new problems. - [Saskatchewan](https://trades.solutions/areas/saskatchewan/): In Saskatchewan, two mid-sized cities and many small centres mean fewer searches and more reliance on reputation. Reviews and service-area clarity usually matter more than ad spend. - [Territories](https://trades.solutions/areas/territories/): In the North, small populations and long distances make reviews and word of mouth the main source of work. Each territory has its own regulators and programs, and Nunavut has specific language rules for advertising. ## Guides and articles - [Guides](https://trades.solutions/guides/): Three long guides, each built around one job an owner can do without us: find the problem, measure lead quality, and keep marketing running when you are short of time. - [Self-diagnosis](https://trades.solutions/guides/diagnose-your-marketing-problem/): Four numbers from last month (enquiries, enquiries answered, quotes and jobs won) reveal most of what is wrong with a trades business's marketing. This guide shows how to collect them, read them and rank your problems by cost. - [Lead scorecard](https://trades.solutions/guides/lead-quality-scorecard/): A lead source that looks cheap per lead can be the most expensive per job. This guide shows how to score every enquiry in a few seconds and, after 60 days, rank your sources by what a won job actually costs. - [Two hours a week](https://trades.solutions/guides/marketing-in-two-hours-a-week/): You can't do everything, and you don't need to. Five tasks, done every week in about two hours, keep a trades business visible, trusted and reachable. This guide sets out the routine and the shortcuts. ## Optional - [Full text](https://trades.solutions/llms-full.txt) - [Parent company](https://trades.agency)
