Your phone used to ring constantly. Now you’re wondering where all the leads went.
Maybe you’ve been working with 1SEO Digital Agency and watching your marketing budget disappear into fancy reports that don’t translate to booked jobs. Or you’re considering them because their sales team promises the moon.
Here’s what no one tells electricians about big marketing agencies: they treat your electrical business like every other home service company. Same cookie-cutter approach. Same generic strategies. Same disappointing results.
If you’re tired of paying premium prices for average outcomes, this comparison will show you exactly why electricians are switching from 1SEO to specialized marketing that actually works.

1SEO positions itself as a full-service digital marketing agency serving multiple industries. They offer websites, SEO, Google Ads, and social media management with what appears to be a comprehensive approach.
The reality paints a different picture. 1SEO operates as a generalist agency that applies the same strategies whether you’re a dentist, roofer, or electrician. Their approach misses the unique challenges electrical contractors face in local markets.
Another Yelp reviewer characterized the company as “very expensive” with “very, very bad” job quality. For electricians operating on tight margins, these cost-value mismatches can devastate marketing budgets.
The communication breakdown becomes particularly problematic for electrical contractors. A Capterra review specifically mentioned that the project “took them entirely too long to deliver because they did not listen to what we requested”. When your marketing materials need precise technical accuracy about electrical codes, certifications, and safety protocols, poor communication leads to campaigns that misrepresent your expertise.
Several clients report dissatisfaction with unmet promises and poor ROI, with one reviewer stating that their salesperson promised a great return but ultimately “failed to deliver any value,” leaving them with “thousands wasted”. Another client spent $25,000 per month yet saw “very, very bad” results.
We believe in honest comparisons. 1SEO might be suitable if:
For most electrical contractors focused on growing their local business profitably, these scenarios don’t apply.
After working with dozens of electrical contractors who moved from 1SEO to our Full Circuit Growth Method, we’ve noticed clear patterns:
Unlike agencies that retain control of your digital assets, electricians get full ownership of websites, Google Business Profiles, and ad accounts. No more paying ransom fees to access what should be yours.
Instead of generic home service strategies, electricians get campaigns built around electrical industry knowledge. We understand the difference between residential service calls, commercial installations, and emergency response marketing.
Electricians see exactly which keywords drive emergency calls, which ad campaigns generate commercial leads, and how much each booked job costs to acquire. No more mysterious reports that don’t connect to actual business outcomes.
When storms hit and electrical emergencies spike, our campaigns automatically adjust to capture increased demand. Generic agencies miss these critical revenue opportunities.
One electrical contractor told us: “With 1SEO, I never knew if my marketing was working. I got reports, but couldn’t connect them to actual jobs. With Destiny’s system, I can see exactly which campaigns bring in the high-value commercial work versus the basic residential calls.”
We built our entire business around one truth: electricians need specialized marketing, not generic solutions applied to everyone.
You Own Everything: Your website, domain, Google accounts, and all campaign data belong to you from day one. No hostage situations when you want to make changes or switch providers.

The choice comes down to what you value most: generic marketing that treats electricians like every other business, or specialized strategies built specifically for electrical contractors.
1SEO applies broad home service tactics across multiple industries. They’ll run standard campaigns, provide generic reports, and charge premium prices while keeping you locked in contracts. When issues arise, you’ll struggle to get responsive support or make necessary changes.
Destiny’s Full Circuit Growth Method was designed exclusively for electrical contractors. We understand electrical emergency patterns, commercial bidding cycles, and the seasonal nature of electrical work. Our campaigns target the specific searches your ideal customers make when they need electrical services.
The Bottom Line: Choose 1SEO if you want to be treated like every other home service business. Choose Destiny if you want marketing that understands the electrical industry and delivers measurable results.
More importantly: With Destiny, you’re never trapped. You own your website, your data, and your results. If we don’t deliver the lead quality and job bookings we promise, you can leave anytime without losing what you’ve built.
Electrical contractors face unique challenges that generic agencies can’t address. You need emergency response capabilities for storm seasons. You need SEO that targets both “electrical repair near me” and “commercial electrical contractor” searches. You need landing pages that speak to both panicked homeowners with electrical emergencies and facility managers planning major installations.
Generic agencies like 1SEO simply can’t deliver this level of electrical industry specialization. They don’t understand your business model, your customer journey, or your seasonal patterns.
