How Scorpion's twelve month terms compare with a flat monthly plan, and who owns the website when you leave.
Scorpion is one of the biggest names in home service marketing. It has dedicated ad teams, data from thousands of contractor accounts, and software that a three person company can't match.
The comparison that matters most is what you own when the relationship ends, and what it costs to leave.
Scorpion is a large operation. It offers dedicated ad teams, industry data at a scale no small agency has, and a platform that combines your website, tracking, chat and reporting in one login. For a company with several trucks that spends heavily on ads, that platform is the main attraction.
The website runs on Scorpion's own platform. That's what makes the all in one experience work, and it's also the thing to understand before you sign. Clients who have left describe taking their content and design files with them but not a working website, because the platform stays with Scorpion. Pricing is quoted per client and isn't published, and twelve month terms are standard.
None of this is hidden, and none of it makes Scorpion a bad choice. It means there are two questions to get in writing before you sign: what the twelve month total is, and exactly what you keep if you leave.
We build in Webflow, which is a platform you can take with you. After the initial term the site is yours, and the domain and Google Business Profile are in your name from the first day. Leaving us costs nothing, so we have to earn each month by doing good work.
We're a three person team. We won't outspend Scorpion's ad department, and we don't have their dataset. What we offer is published pricing, no build fee, and a site you own instead of rent.
