I help general contractors attract high-paying jobs, generate consistent leads, and get more of their time back with my "Smarter Contractor" Online Presence and Lead Generation System.

The Journey

Hi and welcome!

I’m Laci J. Duarte, founder of LJ Consulting and creator of the 90-Day Smarter Contractor System.

Most contractors do great work, but struggle to get found online, attract serious homeowners, or book jobs that actually pay. The Smarter Contractor System helps fix that in just 90 days.

You’ll define your best offers, build a professional website, show up in search results, and stay top of mind with simple follow-up tools.

That means:

  • Better-paying jobs

  • Clients who respect your time

  • Fewer slow weeks

  • And a business that finally works for you

I combine my marketing expertise with a love for home design to support independent contractors who are ready to take back control of their time, income, and reputation. I believe every hardworking contractor deserves to be known, respected, and well paid for what they do best.
