Marketing for SMEs · 2026-05-27 · 32 min
Episode notes
A lot of tradies have been burned by marketing agencies. Bad SEO promises, no results, money gone. So when someone new pitches them, the wall goes up fast. Wes Towers knows this, and it's shaped how he works. Wes is the founder of Uplift360, a full-stack digital marketing agency specialising in websites, SEO, and online presence for trades, construction, and building materials businesses. On this episode of Marketing for SMEs with Jeremy Yang, founder of Australian digital ads agency Digital Goliath, Wes covers why niching into one industry was the best business decision he made, how he sets honest expectations with clients about SEO vs. ads and what each can realistically deliver, how website content still matters even as AI reduces direct traffic, and what tradies can do right now to get ahead of competitors who aren't moving. Worth a listen if you're in the trades or construction space, or if you're a marketer trying to figure out how to earn trust in a sceptical market.
