Different trades, losing work the same way.
The pattern
The people we work with are not short of interest. Someone is always asking about them, looking them up or being sent their way.
What they share is what happens next. A visitor lands, cannot quickly see what makes this one different, and goes to look at the next.
It looks a bit different in each trade. Here is how it usually shows up in yours.
The trades
Every firm says the same three things. Experienced. Trusted. Friendly. Someone weighing up four firms cannot tell you apart, so they go on price or on who answered first.
You all promise cover round the clock and qualified staff. Buyers line you up next to three others. The one who explains itself fastest wins, even when the work is worse.
You know your corner of the market inside out. Your website just says recruitment. That gap is why you end up haggling over fees.
You do this for your own clients. Your own site is the job that never gets booked in, and you know exactly what is wrong with it.
Guests find you on Instagram. Then they book through a website that takes a fifth of the price. Your own site could have taken that booking.

If your trade is not on that list, the same thing usually happens anyway.
Who it suits
Small enough that the owner still knows every client by name. Big enough that the owner has no time left to do anything about the website.
That is where nearly all our work comes from.
Much bigger and you have staff who should be doing this. Much smaller and your money is better spent getting in front of people first.
