If you are in a competitive market like Phoenix and a competitive niche like Garage Door Repair, the Standard package will not be an appropriate fit for you. You would want to do the moderate package or advanced package and results will take roughly 4-8 months. If you are in a smaller city where the population is around 100,000 people, the increased results happen faster. You can not expect the same results from smaller packages to larger packages. The smaller packages are not as robust and will take more time for your desired results.
