The Problem We Solve
Contractor business growth

buy from the first responder

The 5-minute window that costs you jobs

Studies show 78% of customers hire the first contractor who responds. Most trade businesses don't respond for hours — or miss the call entirely. That's jobs walking out the door, every single day.

⚡

Instant AI Response

When a lead fills out your form or calls, AI responds in seconds — not hours. You get the first-mover advantage every time.

📱

Works While You Work

You're on a job site. You can't answer every call. AI handles it, qualifies the lead, and puts a booked appointment on your calendar.

Local-First Strategy

We understand Bend, the Pacific Northwest, and small-market trades businesses. We don't use cookie-cutter approaches.

About Deschutes Consulting

Client Feedback

What our clients say

★★★★★

"I recently had Nate at Deschutes Consulting rebuild my entire business website from scratch and couldn't be happier with how it turned out. From start to finish the process was smooth and straightforward — Nate kept things simple on my end, made every adjustment I asked for without hesitation, and launched quickly. Communication was fast throughout the whole project. If you're looking for someone who does great work, keeps you in the loop, and actually follows through, I'd highly recommend Nate and Deschutes Consulting."
