Scott Meadows

Founder & CEO

Scott Meadows is the owner of Spark Local Marketing, the parent brand behind Plumbing Marketing Gurus. A Navy submarine veteran, Meadows positions the agency around discipline, transparency, and results-oriented execution for home services operators. According to the site, he has spent more than 14 years in home services marketing and is described as a best-selling author, though the site does not name the title or publisher.

The firm's thesis is straightforward: home services is a distinct marketing problem from general small-business marketing, and operators are best served by an agency that works exclusively within the trades. Rather than branching into e-commerce, SaaS, or professional services, Spark Local has deliberately narrowed its client base to eleven home services verticals — plumbing, HVAC, roofing, concrete, fencing, tree removal, painting, lawn care and landscape, disaster remediation, pest control, and handyman companies. Plumbing Marketing Gurus appears to be a vertical-specific front end for plumbing operators who want to work with a trades-focused shop rather than a generalist.

The public founder story is brief. Beyond the veteran background, the tenure figure, and the author credit, the site does not detail Meadows' prior agency experience, past employers, or the specific moment that led him to start Spark Local. Most of the homepage focuses on service descriptions and the agency's home-services-only positioning rather than founder narrative. Team size, location specifics beyond a South Carolina area code, and notable hires are not disclosed on the page reviewed.

Editorial

Editor’s take

Spark Local Marketing, operating as Plumbing Marketing Gurus, positions itself as a home-services specialist with 14+ years of category experience spanning plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and 11 service trades. The agency's core offerings — Local SEO, website design, and lead-generation PPC — are tailored specifically to contractor businesses competing in local markets. Founded by Navy veteran and self-published author Scott Meadows, the agency brings a distinct owner-operator perspective that resonates with independent trade contractors seeking a partner who understands their industry.

What they do

Services

Local SEO

Focused on helping plumbing contractors rank in map packs and organic results for geo-modified service queries (emergency plumber, water heater repair near me). Includes on-page optimization bundled with website builds.

Website Design

Builds and redesigns conversion-oriented sites for plumbing and other trades, emphasizing call-driven layouts, service-area pages, and SEO-ready structure rather than generic small-business templates.

Paid Advertising (PPC)

Runs Google Ads and paid campaigns tuned to high-intent plumbing queries, where lead economics and call tracking matter more than impression volume. Positioned as a revenue-growth lever for operators with capacity to book more jobs.

Google Business Profile Management

Manages GBP listings for plumbers competing in crowded local markets, treating the profile as a primary lead source alongside the website rather than an afterthought.

Review Acquisition & Reputation Management

Systematizes review generation for plumbing companies, where homeowner trust and star ratings directly influence call rates from both Google search and map listings.

Social Media & Email Marketing

Handles organic social presence and email campaigns aimed at repeat service work and seasonal promotions (drain cleaning, water heater flushes), rather than brand-building for its own sake.
