Automation agency for North Carolina service businesses, working from Sacramento, California.
Diagnose, Build, Run: one system for a North Carolina business that loses customers between the first call and the booked job, built and run remotely from Sacramento, California.
By Eugene Romanov·Published
Orium Studios, Sacramento, California, builds the Client Acquisition System for North Carolina service businesses: the free check of where the business loses customers, the Client Acquisition Blueprint at $750, the AI receptionist, the CRM with follow-up, the pages that convert, and Run retainers from $750 a month. The work is done remotely, on your own accounts, at the same published prices as in California, for businesses in Charlotte, Raleigh and Durham, Greensboro, Winston-Salem and Wilmington.

SHT-02Site conditions
What the year looks like for a North Carolina service business.
The trades and the season in North Carolina
Charlotte and the Triangle have grown for years on newcomers from other states, humid summers keep HVAC busy, the coast has a hurricane season and the mountains in the west have a second-home and tourism economy. A service company here is often working subdivisions that did not exist a few years ago.
The part of the system that matters most here
A newcomer to Raleigh or Charlotte has no contractor and finds one by searching, so search and AI visibility and the pages that convert do the first part of the selling. Behind them, the CRM with follow-up keeps the quote alive while the new homeowner compares the three companies the search returned.

SHT-03Working at a distance
How a Sacramento studio works for a business in North Carolina.
The first call is a video call
A Blueprint or a build starts with a screen share in which you walk us through how the business gets customers today, from the first call to the booked job. Nothing on it needs anyone to be in the same room, and a North Carolina business gets the same first week as one in Sacramento.
Everything lives on your own accounts
The phone number, the CRM, the domain, the ad accounts and the Stripe account are opened in your name and stay yours. We build inside them and hand over the keys; a client who stops working with us keeps everything running.
Hours you can plan around
Our hours are 9 am to 6 pm Pacific, Monday to Friday, which is noon to 9 pm Eastern time in North Carolina.
The same published prices in every state
The free check costs nothing anywhere. The Client Acquisition Blueprint is $750 in North Carolina as in California, Run retainers are $750 to $1,500 a month, and what moves a build price is the work in the scope, never the state it is in.
SHT-03AThe system
The Client Acquisition System, for North Carolina businesses.
Three stages, Diagnose, Build and Run, and each one has a page of its own. Diagnose finds where the business leaks customers. Build puts up the pieces that stop the leak: the AI receptionist, the CRM with follow-up, and the pages that convert. Run works the channels every week for a flat fee. Any stage can be bought on its own; nothing is a condition of anything else.
- 01
The free check
Where the business is losing customers today: not found, nobody answers, nobody follows up. A written answer, the same day, with no call required.
- 02
Client Acquisition Blueprint, $750
Five business days inside how the business gets customers, and a written plan of what to build and in what order. Paid upfront as its own piece of work.
- 03
AI receptionist
For the hours the crew cannot be on the phone: takes the name, number and reason, reads the number back, and hands the lead to a person while it is still warm.
- 04
CRM and follow-up
One record per customer, follow-up that keeps going on business days, and a Monday report of leads and booked jobs by source.
- 05
The pages that convert
Pages that hand the lead to the system instead of to an inbox, with the phone number, the price and the next step where a visitor looks first.
- 06
Run retainers, $750 to $1,500 a month, multi-location from $2,500
One channel worked every week, or the full path from ad to booked job. A flat monthly fee, never a share of ad spend; the media is paid to Google or Meta directly.
SHT-05General notes
The questions a North Carolina owner asks first.
- N01Do you work with service businesses in North Carolina?
- Yes. Orium Studios works remotely from Sacramento, California for service businesses in every state, and North Carolina is served on the same terms as California: a video first call, the system built on your own accounts, and the same published prices. In North Carolina that means Charlotte, Raleigh and Durham, Greensboro, Winston-Salem and Wilmington and the towns between them.
- N02What are your hours in North Carolina time?
- Our hours are 9 am to 6 pm Pacific, Monday to Friday, which is noon to 9 pm Eastern time in North Carolina.
- N03Is the price different in North Carolina?
- No. The Client Acquisition Blueprint is $750, Run retainers are $750 to $1,500 a month, and a build is priced by the work named in the scope. The ladder is published on the pricing page and is the same in every state.
- N04Do you need to visit the business?
- No. The walkthrough of how the business gets customers happens over a screen share, the build happens on your accounts, and the weekly Run report arrives in writing. A North Carolina owner sees the same people and the same work as a Sacramento one.
- N05Do you know North Carolina's rules for contractors?
- We do not give legal advice, and we do not pretend to know every state's licensing and consent rules by heart. What we do is put the rule you and your lawyer name into the system, so a licence number lands on every document on its own, a recording notice runs before it is needed, and the step cannot be skipped by accident.
- N06Which part of the system matters most for a North Carolina business?
- A newcomer to Raleigh or Charlotte has no contractor and finds one by searching, so search and AI visibility and the pages that convert do the first part of the selling. Behind them, the CRM with follow-up keeps the quote alive while the new homeowner compares the three companies the search returned.
