Book a call
A 30-minute working session, no pitch. Tell us where you are now and what you want video to do for the business.
You run the trucks, the crews and the phones, and you are sitting on job footage that should be earning homeowner trust and filling the schedule. We turn the installs, diagnoses and before-and-afters into video that wins homeowners, hires good techs and makes you the shop people find first.
Your crews capture installs, diagnoses and before-and-afters every week. It sits in a camera roll because nobody on the truck has time to cut it, so the best proof you own never gets seen.
A month with nothing posted, then three videos in a rush before a slow week. Homeowners and good techs see a channel that looks abandoned, not a shop that is busy and dialed in.
The competitor two towns over has worse trucks and a better feed, so homeowners find them first. You lose the booking before the phone ever rings, on presence alone.
Skilled techs choose the company that looks like the best place to work. With no culture content, you are a logo on a job board competing only on pay, not on the shop you actually run.
You have tried the per-video freelancer who mislabels a heat pump, butchers the pacing and vanishes when your season gets busy. The price was low and the result was unusable.
Between dispatch, estimates and payroll there is no room to learn editing, write hooks or manage a posting calendar. Marketing is the plate you keep meaning to get to and never do.
One fractional video team, three ways in. We can run your production, reinforce the team you have, or steer the direction. Pick the one that fits where you are.
You book a call, we scope the right fit, then the work gets going. Either we run it for you, or your team takes it from there.
A 30-minute working session, no pitch. Tell us where you are now and what you want video to do for the business.
We map the right service and scope to that goal, whether that is a Content Engine, Production Support or Growth Consulting.
We run it for you with the same people every cycle, or hand your team a plan they can execute on their own.
The gap is not your work. It is that your work is invisible. We close it so the company people see online matches the company you actually run.
One editor builds and follows your style guide and learns your trade, your market and your voice, so a heat pump is never called a furnace and every cut sounds like your shop.
We are a team, not a freelancer who vanishes when the heat wave hits and the calls pile up. Backup coverage means your content keeps shipping when you need it most.
One point of contact and a monthly strategy call, not a ticket queue. We guarantee real craft and two revision rounds per video, never a meaningless promise of endless output.
If you have a marketer without in-house video expertise, we are the partner who fills that gap, takes production off their plate and makes the whole team look great.
Every 3-month engagement includes a 30-Day Exit. If the first month isn't right for your shop, you walk away owing only month one and any work delivered, no further obligation. The standard is on us to earn.
Book within 30 days of a paid Video Roadmap and the full amount credits toward your engagement. The strategy you pay for becomes the deposit on the work.
Look for a team that gets your trade and proves it, not the cheapest per-video price. You want a dedicated team that learns your shop, backup coverage so content doesn't stall in busy season, and real proof. Create & Elate has made 13,000+ videos for 130+ clients over 7 years. Start with a free audit of one of your videos.
Both. Most owners send footage shot on a phone at the job site and we cut it. When you'd rather run the job than run a camera, we book and manage a local crew to film the install, the diagnosis, or the team, with a single videographer or a multi-cam setup depending on the shoot. We edit it inside your plan.
You're not locked in. Every 3-month engagement includes a 30-Day Exit: if the first month isn't right, you walk away owing only month one and any work delivered. You also get a dedicated team that learns your trade, two revision rounds per video, and a real team with backup coverage, not a freelancer who vanishes when your season runs hot. Start with a free audit so you see how we read your content first.
Yes. Recruiting and culture videos are a strong fit for home-services companies fighting to hire. We cut what-it's-like-to-work-here clips that put your best techs and your shop culture on camera, plus onboarding and training content. It runs alongside your homeowner-facing content on the same plan.
Very little. After the scoping call you send footage from the truck or let us film, and we handle strategy, editing, thumbnails, captions, descriptions and posting. The only regular commitment is one short monthly call where we read what performed and adjust the plan. You stay in the field.
Yes. Your raw footage and the final exports of every video are yours to keep and use however you want. The working project files and any stock we license stay with us, which is standard. Retainers run in 30-day cycles with no long lock-in, and every 3-month-plus commitment includes a 30-Day Exit.
Send us a single video, even something shot on a phone at the job site. In 3 to 5 business days we send back a personal 5 to 7 minute Loom: your hook, pacing, structure and the one change that would make it land harder with homeowners. It costs nothing and tells you exactly what to do, whether or not we ever work together.
