Hey, I’m Dakarai 👋
Your next customer is searching right now. Let’s help them find you.
I’m a digital marketer who works with HVAC companies. I work on the things that help you show up when people search, stand out when they compare, and get back to leads before they call someone else.
The audit is free and takes about two minutes. See where you rank on Google Maps, who’s beating you, and what it’s likely costing you each month.
How I help
Show up when they search
When someone’s AC dies at 9pm, they Google it or ask ChatGPT. I work on your website, local listings and content to give you a better shot at being the one that comes up, and I track where you show up so we can see what’s working.
Win the map
Most calls come from that Google map with three businesses on it. I tune up your Google Business Profile and set up a simple system for asking happy customers for reviews.
Text back missed callers automatically
Can’t pick up while you’re on a job? I’ll set up an automatic text back for missed calls and a follow-up sequence for new leads. Then we’ll test it together before it goes live.
What I’m working on
In development
HVAC Growth
The software I’m building to handle everything above in one place: rank tracking, reviews, missed call text back and landing pages. It’s still in development.

Side project
Karai
I’m learning Spanish and Japanese, and I got tired of jumping between five apps. So I’m building one with reading, videos, flashcards and an AI tutor all together.
Channel
YouTube
I talk about marketing, running, learning languages, and what it’s really like building all this from scratch.
Outside of work
Running
I’ve been running for about 3 years, mostly slow. Turns out running easy made me faster. Weird, I know.
Languages
Spanish and Japanese, learned the immersion way. Lots of shows, lots of reading, lots of mistakes.
Discipline
Habits, productivity and the books that keep me showing up, especially on the days I don’t feel like it.
