Mission 02 · Infrastructure
Custom website on Astro, GoHighLevel CRM, lead capture, and a monthly report that shows revenue, not vanity metrics. This is the base layer every client runs on.

Mission 03 · Automation
The average marketing agency takes 47 hours to respond to an inbound lead. The customer has already called three competitors.
Stellaris Ridge's Speed-to-Lead system responds in seconds — SMS, email, and AI voice handoff — and keeps the conversation going until the lead books or explicitly opts out. Closes the gap that kills most small businesses.

These are the real questions Jarod gets asked on first calls. No fluff, no legal hedges — the honest version.
VOX Full — website widget plus a dedicated AI phone line that books jobs into your calendar — is $1,500 setup and $299 per month. A single missed furnace install call is $3,000 to $8,000 in lost revenue. VOX pays for itself the first week it catches a job.
Most don't notice, and the ones who do don't care. What they want is to get their job booked. VOX books jobs. It pauses, handles interruptions, and hands off to a human for anything it can't confidently answer.
Traditional agencies sell SEO packages and report vanity metrics. We build AI systems that answer your phone, capture leads, and book jobs. You don't pay for impressions — you pay for infrastructure that generates revenue.
HVAC, plumbing, electrical, general contractors, dental and medical offices, salons and spas, auto services, professional services, and restaurants. Anywhere a local business lives or dies on inbound phone calls and has been burned by a marketing agency.
Stellaris Ridge is based in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Jarod handles in-person client work across Central Alabama and the Southeast. Carl builds the technology from Wisconsin. We serve clients remotely across the US.
No. You answer basic questions about your business during setup — hours, services, pricing, how you route emergencies. We configure the system. You see jobs on your calendar. If something needs changing, you call Jarod and it gets changed.
If it is, VOX is answering it. If it isn't, we should talk about why. A free 20-minute consultation. No pitch deck.
