background
The challenge
When Gary Woods launched Tynemouth Precision Paving in 2017, he relied on word of mouth and the odd Facebook message. He had no website, no ads, no real digital presence.
But Gary had bigger ambitions – and knew he couldn’t get there alone.
“I was nervous at first. The price was a bit more than I was used to – but Dave was confident, knowledgeable, and clearly knew what he was doing. The lead guarantee gave me the final push.” – Gary Woods, Owner
That first meeting with David Chambers, his local Yell account manager, was the start of a growth journey built on trust, visibility, and guaranteed results.
“I’m so glad I chose Yell. The fact Dave’s local instantly put my mind at ease about him looking after me and my business. I’ve already referred friends because of the superb job he’s doing. I trust him completely – he has my best interests at heart. Honestly, I’ve never looked back.”

results & improvements

We guaranteed Gary the 7 leads needed to cover his marketing costs, or he’d get his money back. In just over 3 months, he’s already smashed that with 174 leads – that’s 24x over his breakeven target!

Gary concludes, “My business has never been so busy. From day one, the phone didn’t stop – it was honestly a bit overwhelming at first! But with a little guidance from Dave, I soon found my rhythm. I’ll continue singing Dave and Yell’s praises to anyone who asks how the business is!”
“I first met Gary at a local Costa, and we clicked straight away. He was hungry to grow the business and bring in more work but had never advertised before – so naturally, he was a bit nervous about the cost.
Once we talked through the strategy and he saw it was backed by our lead guarantee, he decided to take that leap of faith. I’m so glad he did – and so is he. His phone hasn’t stopped ringing since and his site’s performing brilliantly on Google. The number of form fills and recorded calls are proving just how much value he’s getting already.
The fact Gary’s already recommended me to other business owners says it all. I’m really proud of the results we’ve achieved together – and excited to keep building from here.”
