A rebrand, real automation, and a content-driven website — launched together

Bee Green Outdoor Living is a hardscaping and outdoor-living design-build firm serving Cleveland, Akron, and Medina. They wanted fewer commodity lawn jobs and more of the projects that build a business. Here's what changed in the year after the new site and campaigns went live.

What We Built

AI Chatbot

“Beesley,” the chatbot

A concierge that answers visitors 24/7 in the brand’s voice — including nights and weekends, when the crew is out on job sites — and qualifies serious prospects in a few taps. The moment someone shares contact info, it’s captured, scored, and follow-up is already moving.

Marketing Automation

Email sequences that already knew the customers

The client’s existing contacts were imported first, so the automation started with real customer history — not a cold list. New leads route instantly into tiered sequences, the CRM, and real-time team alerts.

Rebrand + Website

70 pages, one brand, zero lost equity

A repositioning from commodity landscaping to outdoor living, on a custom 70-page site at a premium exact-match domain — brand-new, zero search history. Organic still grew 6.6× through the move; nothing built before was lost.

The Lead Engine

This is Beesley on the live site, opening the conversation on its own — the front door of the automation stack. The moment a visitor shares contact info, the sequences, CRM, and team alerts behind it take over.

The local target-market cities the SEO plan targeted — Cleveland, Strongsville, Parma, Lakewood, Avon Lake — show strong, real conversion rates. That's proof the local-SEO targeting is working, not just driving vanity traffic.

90 days post-rebrand, searches for the old brand name (“bee green landscaping”) still rank an average #3.3 in Google and still convert — the redirect preserved existing brand demand instead of losing it.

Bee Green isn't a special case — it's what happens when a rebrand, real marketing automation, and a content-driven website all launch together instead of piecemeal. That's the playbook GSI builds for home-service businesses.
