Video production for installers · Filmazepam, pill 1 of 5

Homeowners can't tell you apart. So they pick the cheapest.

Every installer says quality, service and a great warranty. On a phone at 9pm, you all look the same. We shoot your real jobs, your team and your happy customers every three months, and cut each shoot day into around 30 ads that show exactly why you're worth the money. You own every frame.

£2,000 to start, then nothing until your first deal.

01The problem

Better installs. Same-looking adverts.

The homeowner scrolling at 9pm can't see your workmanship, your fitters or your aftercare. If she can't see the difference, she buys on price.

  • Our installs are better than theirs. On Facebook we look exactly the same.

  • We had a videographer once. We got a nice video of the van.

  • My lads freeze the second a camera comes out.

  • We keep posting the same three photos of the same three roofs.

What installers tell us on the first call.

02What we do · every shoot day

Your best work, shot properly. Four times a year.

A shoot day every three months, included in the price, never charged as an extra. This is what turns up, and what you keep.

High-production video

Pro 4K cameras, a drone and proper sound on your real jobs, and we colour grade every clip, so the business looks as good as the work.

05

An extensive creative brief

Written by our creative strategists from your onboarding call: one for each property we visit, and one for your selling points.

You own all the raw footage

Every frame is yours. We will never withhold raw footage from a client.

05Every three months

Briefed from what sold. Then we come back.

Before the first shoot, our creative strategists write a brief for every property and one for what makes you different, and you approve it. After it, your ad account tells us which people, hooks and shots sold, and the next brief doubles down on them.

  1. Before shoot 1

09Patient information leafletFilmazepam

Patient questions.

The ones we get on every first call, answered straight.

Every question →
  • Q01

    I've never been on camera. Help?

    That's most people. The videographer directs and encourages you all day.

  • Q02

    What if it rains?

    Inside shots, or we come back.

  • Q03

    Do you script it?

    Yes. Some ads are scripted word for word, others give you a hook and a call to action, and our videographer directs you through the rest.

  • Q04

    How far do you travel?

    Anywhere in the UK.

  • Q05

    Can I have more shoot days?

    Yes. Higher spenders, installers covering more areas and anyone launching a new trade often add a day, a videographer or a second crew, so the ads never run dry.

  • Q06

    Can customers say no?

    Of course.

  • Q07

    What does it cost?

    All five services come together, for one price. It's £2,000 + VAT to start. Your ad spend is separate: you pay it to Facebook directly, from your own ad account, so you see every penny. Ben runs through the rest for your trade and your area on the call.

Is your area still open? A few installers per area.

Five quick questions, then pick a time with Ben. Thirty minutes on where you're losing sales, and what we'd run instead.

£2,000 to start, then nothing until your first deal.
