About Deep Thought 360

Deep Thought 360 is a solo-founded consultancy focused on helping trades-based businesses—electricians, plumbers, solar installers, and other contractors—grow more profitably using a blend of CRM, automation, and AI-driven strategy.

The consultancy is rooted in South Africa, but operates across English-speaking markets in EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa), including the UK, Ireland, and UAE.

We Help the Trades Grow Smarter

At Deep Thought 360, we’re not your average marketing consultancy. We specialise in helping trades businesses like electricians, plumbers, solar installers, and other skilled service pros get more leads, close more work, and run smoother operations.

Our mission?
To bring the power of automation, smart systems, and effective marketing to the trades — without the fluff, jargon, or waste.

We know the real-world challenges that trades businesses face: tight margins, time pressure, and customers who expect quick response and great service.

We help you rise above the chaos with clear systems that make everything easier — from that first WhatsApp enquiry to final payment.

What we believe

🔧 Systems Beat Scramble
Great work gets buried under messy admin and missed follow-ups. We put systems in place so your business runs better, not just busier.

📈 Marketing Should Deliver Jobs
We don’t do brand fluff. We help you show up where it matters — in front of local customers who need your services now.

🤝 Trades Deserve Tech That Works
Most software isn’t built for the trades. We use HubSpot and automation tools to create simple, powerful setups that match how your business actually works.

What we do

We combine:

  • ✅ Local lead generation (Google Ads, SEO, and landing pages)

  • ✅ HubSpot CRM implementation & workflow automation

  • ✅ RevOps consulting to optimise every part of your customer journey

Everything we do is designed to save you time, increase your close rate, and help you grow without growing your headaches.

Who we work best with

We work with trades businesses who:

  • Are serious about growth

  • Are tired of losing leads, quotes, or jobs due to messy systems

  • Want to invest in smart tools and automation (like HubSpot)

  • Value practical, no-nonsense advice and delivery

Whether you’re a solo operator or a 20-person team, we’ll meet you where you are — and help you build the system to get where you want to go.
