What we found
Trading history and reviews
“30 years in business”, licence reference 2000612, and (via Birdeye, sourced from Google) 4.8 stars from 80 reviews, all Google-sourced. A genuinely strong, well-established review base.
Instagram is effectively dormant
@thornburyelectrics: 4 followers, 0 following, most recent visible post from April 2023, over 3 years stale. A genuinely dormant account for a business with this trading history.
Own testimonials page shows no numbers
The 4.8-star, 80-review record isn't surfaced anywhere on their own site, not even on their dedicated testimonials page, which shows plain text quotes with no star rating or count.
No stated response time
No mention anywhere of expected response time, an auto-reply, or what happens after someone calls or fills in the form.
How SAL's services could help
- Meta Ads (primary fit)A genuinely strong trust asset (30 years, 80 reviews at 4.8 stars) with effectively no active presence putting it in front of new people. SAL's own proof point: one Perth electrician client (Nexus Electrical Co) currently getting leads at $41.57 each on Meta, from a real, verified export, one client's one campaign, not a promise, but it shows the model works for the trade and city.
- Landing page / conversion optimisationA quick, low-cost fix: surface the actual 4.8 stars and 80-review count directly on the homepage and testimonials page, raising trust at the exact moment someone lands there deciding whether to call.
- Tracking / speed-to-leadNo visible response-time promise anywhere. Worth checking directly with them, a documented speed-to-lead standard is one of the more consistently evidenced levers for turning enquiries into booked jobs.
