How fast can we go live on HDA?

Onboarding with Heavy Duty Advertising’s platform is designed to be fast and seamless, so you can start seeing results without waiting months. The exact timeline hinges on how quickly your shop can provide the essentials—things like your logo, branding assets, access to your CRM or Google Business Profile, and a brief onboarding call to align your goals. Most shops are fully set up and live within 2 to 4 weeks, depending on responsiveness.

The process typically unfolds in clear phases:

Week 1: Kickoff & Setup
We begin with an onboarding call to define your goals, understand your services, and gather credentials (website, Google Business Profile, social accounts, etc.). At the same time, we install your CRM pipeline, map your service flows, and plan your initial automations.
Week 2: Build & Automate
Our team builds out your foundational automations—things like missed call text-backs, welcome sequences, appointment reminders, and review requests. We also launch your system with structured service and location pages, initial SEO setup, and review automation.
Week 3: Review & Launch
We go together over your dashboard, test every flow (appointments, lead capture, follow-ups), and confirm everything is working as intended. Any necessary tweaks are made, and once you’re confident, we switch the system live—automating your funnels from that point on.
Week 4+: Optimize & Grow
After launch, we don’t walk away—we monitor data (lead inflow, conversions, responses) and fine-tune your automations and content. If needed, we add more pages, optimize Google Business content, or integrate additional automations like drip campaigns or loyalty workflows.

Of course, timelines vary. If you have everything ready at Day 1—your branding, access, and priorities defined—you can be up and running in just 10 business days. But in real-world scenarios, most clients are fully operational between 2–4 weeks. This collaboration model balances speed with accuracy and ensures your system isn’t just live—but working, measurable, and set up to scale.

Bottom line: HDA is as fast as you need it to be. If you’re ready to get started, we’ll give you a detailed Week-by-Week rollout sheet when you sign on.
