Taking on founding clients

We fill your quote book

New, qualified quote requests from buyers already searching Google for what you sell. You pay per qualified request, not for clicks or posts.

What you get either way

Channels and disciplines we work in

  • Google Search Ads
  • Quote Pages
  • Google Maps Listings
  • Form Tracking
  • Call Tracking
  • WhatsApp Tracking
  • YouTube Retargeting
  • LinkedIn Ads
  • POPIA-Compliant Forms

Forecast, set up, fill the book

Our job ends the moment a qualified request lands in your inbox. Quoting it and winning the order stays with you.

  1. Forecast

    Before you pay anything, we pull real Google search numbers for what you sell, check which competitors are already buying those searches, and work out with you what one quote request is worth.

    • Real search data for your services
    • What one request is worth to you
  2. Setup

    We build your quote pages, set up Google Ads in an account in your name, track every form, call and WhatsApp, and fix your Google Maps listing. You approve it once.

    • Quote pages on your own subdomain
    • Live in 2 to 3 weeks
  3. Filling the book

    Requests arrive as buyers send them, each logged with where it came from. Once a month we spend 15 minutes on what came in and what we are changing. Any request we fall short on is credited on your next invoice.

    • Every request tracked to its source
    • Shortfalls credited back

What the Quote Book includes

Where buyers come from

Google Search ads

Ads for exactly what you sell, in the areas you serve, shown to people who are searching for it right now. Built in an ad account in your name and paid by you straight to Google. Retail shoppers and job-seekers are kept out.

  • Keywords chosen from real search data
  • Ad account built in your name
  • Retail and job-seeker searches blocked
  • Ongoing search-term clean-up
Where they ask

Quote pages

Your ads never send buyers to your homepage. They land on a page with one job: ask for a quote. It carries your logo, colours and real photos, lives on your own subdomain, and opens with the form.

  • Headline matched to the search
  • Quote form first, built for phones
  • WhatsApp button and tracked phone line
  • POPIA privacy notice
How you know

Tracking and proof

Every request lands in your inbox with where it came from: which search, which ad, which page. Calls, emails and WhatsApps are tracked too, so nothing is guessed and nothing is counted twice.

  • Every request logged with its source
  • Call, email and WhatsApp tracking
  • Your “before” numbers taken at setup
  • One 15-minute review call a month
Setup, plus an optional extra

Google Maps and search

Your Google Maps listing is fixed during setup: services, photos, hours and areas. Ongoing work on how you show up in Google's free results is an optional fixed monthly fee, never charged per request, and proven with Google's own before-and-after numbers.

  • Maps listing fixed at setup
  • Optional fixed monthly fee
  • Never charged per request
  • Proven with Google's own numbers

Built for businesses that sell by quote

Not one industry. One kind of business: where a single order is big enough that a single quote request is worth paying for. A good fit ticks all four.

01

You sell by quote

Buyers ask for a price before they buy. No shopping cart and no fixed price list.

  • Enclosures & sheet metal
  • Steel fabrication
  • Construction
02

Your orders are worth R50 000 or more

One extra order pays for a lot of marketing. That is what makes a single quote request worth paying for.

  • Shopfitting
  • Solar & backup power
  • HVAC
03

You have room for more work

If you are fully booked, you don't need us yet. We would rather tell you that than take the fee.

  • Security & access control
  • Signage
  • Logistics
04

Your buyers search Google

People search for what you sell. We check that with real search data before we pitch you anything.

  • Industrial cleaning
  • Kitchens & joinery
  • Event production

Two founders, no middle layer

We can't show you a decade of case studies yet. We started in 2026. What we can do is commit, in writing, to how we work. These are the terms, not aspirations.

Ethan De NobregaCo-founderethan@decalmarketing.comYour first point of contact. The forecast, the setup call and the monthly review come from him directly, not from an account manager relaying it.
Calum PotgieterCo-foundercalum@decalmarketing.comHands on the build day to day: quote pages, ad accounts and tracking. There is no junior layer underneath doing it instead.
01

Paid per qualified request

Your bundle covers up to a set number of qualified requests. Every one we don't deliver is credited back on your next invoice.

02

You own the ad account

Google Ads runs in an account in your name, and you pay Google directly. We never hold or mark up your ad spend.

03

No social media needed

No posting, no filming, no content calendars to approve. Approve the pages once, then reply to requests.

04

Every request on record

You see each request as it arrives, with the search and ad it came from. Not a vague monthly lead count.

05

One client per service, per area

Two clients in the same area would bid against each other on Google. So we only take one.

06

Month to month

No lock-in. We keep you by filling the book, not by holding you to a twelve-month term.

What is one quote request worth to you?

Two numbers you already know: how many quotes you win, and what a typical order is worth. We never need your profit margin.

Example numbers are filled in. Change them to yours.

2 in 10
Qualified requests in a month

One quote request is worth

R20 000in sales

2 in 10 × R100 000. That is an average across the quotes you win and the ones you lose.

20 requests would become about
4 orders
Worth about, in sales
R400 000

Fits our standard bundles

Our rule: every R1 you spend with us and on Google should bring in at least R10 in sales. If your numbers don't pass, we will say so on the call.

These are your numbers, not our results. We don't promise a number of requests until we have checked real Google search data for what you sell.

From enquiry to live

No mystery and no pitch theatre. Here is exactly what happens after you send the form, how pricing works, and what counts as a request you pay for.

  1. Step 01

    Send the form

    2 minutes

    Tell us what you sell, the areas you serve and roughly what a typical order is worth. Nothing to prepare.

  2. Step 02

    We reply and book the call

    Within 24 hours, Mon to Fri

    A reply from Ethan or Calum, not a scheduling bot. If you are not a fit, for example orders that are too small or a business that is fully booked, we will say so here rather than waste your call.

  3. Step 03

    The free 30-minute call

    30 minutes, no charge

    We look at real Google search numbers for what you sell and work out together what one quote request is worth to you. If the maths does not work, we will tell you.

  4. Step 04

    Your forecast and a quote page mock-up

    A few working days

    The searches worth buying, the competitors already bidding on them, a recommended ad budget and a mock-up of your quote page. You keep it either way.

  5. Step 05

    Setup, then live

    2 to 3 weeks

    Approve the pages once. We build the ads in your account, switch on tracking and go live. Requests start arriving in your inbox.

How pricing works

A setup fee once, then a monthly bundle paid upfront for up to a set number of qualified requests. You pay for every qualified request, whether you win the job or not, because the price already allows for the quotes you lose. Your Google ad spend is separate and goes straight from your account to Google.

  • The call and the forecast are free
  • Every missed request credited back
  • Month to month, with no lock-in contract

What counts as a qualified request

  • 01A real person or business, with working contact details
  • 02In the area you serve
  • 03Wants something you actually sell
  • 04Above your minimum order size
  • 05Wants it within the agreed timeframe
  • 06Not spam, a supplier selling to you, or a job-seeker
  • 07Not an existing customer, and not a repeat within 30 days

Straight answers

Including the ones most agencies would rather you didn't ask.

What exactly am I paying for?

New quote requests from buyers who found you on Google and asked for a price on your quote page. Not clicks, impressions or posts. A request only counts if it passes our qualified list: a real buyer, in your area, wanting something you sell, above your minimum order.

What if I don't win the job?

You still pay for the request. The price is set knowing you will lose some quotes, because it is worked out from your own win rate and average order. Winning the job is your side of the work.

What if a request isn't a real buyer?

Tell us within 7 days, with the reason from the qualified list, and it is not charged. Spam, job-seekers and buyers outside your area never count.

What if you bring fewer requests than my bundle?

The bundle is “up to”, never a promise. Every request we fall short by is credited back on your next invoice.

Do I need Instagram or Facebook?

No. When someone needs a quote for what you sell, they search Google, not Instagram. Our core channels, Google Search ads and your Google Maps listing, need no social media accounts or posting at all.

Who pays for the ads?

You do, straight to Google, from an ad account in your name. We recommend the budget. We never pay for or mark up your ad spend, and if the budget changes, the bundle is resized to match.

Do you reply to or follow up the requests?

No. Our job ends the moment a qualified request is submitted. Replying, quoting and following up stay with your team.

Are you a new agency?

Yes. DeCal was founded in 2026 by Ethan De Nobrega and Calum Potgieter. Rather than borrow case studies, our first three clients get founding rates, and in return we measure everything. We only share anyone's results with their written approval.

Do you already work with a competitor of mine?

We take one client per service, per area. If we already work with someone who competes with you for the same buyers, we will tell you in our first reply.

Let's talk about your numbers

Tell us what you sell and where. We'll come to the call with real Google search numbers for it, not a generic pitch deck with your logo pasted on the front.

  • Free 30-minute call and forecast, zero obligation
  • A reply within 24 hours, Monday to Friday
  • Your details stay private, never shared or sold
