When Cayleb Pletos found himself “running around like a chicken with his head cut off,” juggling sales, operations, and service delivery all by himself, he never imagined he would become the go-to marketing expert for painting contractors across North America. But that’s exactly what happened.
His company, Taurify, has carved out a unique space in the digital marketing world by doing something most agencies are afraid to do: focusing on just one industry.
The Power of Deep Specialization
While most marketing agencies try to be everything to everyone, Caleb made the bold decision to work exclusively with painting contractors. This laser focus has allowed him to develop unmatched expertise in what works specifically for painting businesses. When a painting contractor faces a challenge, chances are Caleb has already helped another client overcome that exact same problem.
“I can point to 50 different painting companies across the United States and Canada, and I know exactly how they operate, exactly what they do,” Cayleb explains. This depth of knowledge simply isn’t possible for general marketing agencies that work with restaurants one day and fitness centers the next.
Understanding What Makes Painting Different
Cayleb recognizes something many marketers miss: painting services exist in a unique middle ground. They’re not totally essential like emergency plumbing, but they’re not purely luxury services either. This understanding shapes his entire marketing approach.
He knows that painting customers buy “the experience” as much as the service itself. They want someone trustworthy to transform their $500,000 home into something beautiful. Caleb’s marketing strategies highlight this emotional connection, focusing on family, local business values, and stunning visual transformations.
A Proven Facebook + Google Strategy
Taurify’s approach combines the best of both digital worlds. While many agencies push clients to choose between platforms, Caleb recommends a strategic combination:
- Google ads capture those ready-to-buy customers who are actively searching for painters
- Facebook ads create attention and desire, showcasing beautiful transformations that inspire homeowners
This dual approach ensures painting contractors aren’t just waiting for the phone to ring but actively creating demand for their services.
More Than Just Marketing Advice
Working with Cayleb means getting more than just ads. His team understands the entire painting business model. They know which neighborhoods can afford premium services, what messaging attracts better customers (not just cheap price shoppers), and how to present painting businesses professionally.
This comprehensive knowledge comes from years of documenting successes and failures on YouTube, where Cayleb openly shares what works and what doesn’t. This transparency has built tremendous trust in the painting community.
Growing With Purpose
What truly makes Cayleb special is his commitment to both his clients’ success and his team’s development. He’s transformed himself from a “glorified freelancer” to a true leader who empowers his team members while maintaining high standards.
This growth mindset extends to his future vision as well. Currently generating $30-35,000 monthly, Taurify aims to reach $100,000 within five years. But Caleb’s ambitions go beyond business success. He plans to reinvest in rebuilding communities in his native Detroit area, showing his commitment to making a lasting impact.
