How Sharktech Global helps Canberra electrical businesses grow
Sharktech Global built LYD Solar Suite for Australian electricians. This guide explains every part of it, for Canberra solar and electrical businesses.
Websites, SEO and AEO
Before Canberra customers call, they check your website. We make sure it is found and that it books the job.
Elevate includes a website of up to 15 pages, with location pages for areas like Belconnen and Gungahlin.
Dominate adds a StoryBrand website, one new page every month, and advanced SEO and AEO.
AEO is answer engine optimisation. When someone in Canberra asks an AI tool for an electrician, it helps your business get named.
Paid ads on Google and Meta
Yes, we manage Google and Meta ads for sparkies. It is included in the Dominate plan.
The plan covers one managed campaign. Each extra campaign has a 15% management fee.
Ad spend is paid separately, so you stay in control of the budget.
Every ad lead lands in your CRM and gets a reply in seconds. No ad spend is wasted on a missed call.
AI receptionist and voice agent
Missed calls are lost jobs. The AI receptionist answers them for you, day or night.
Pricing starts at $100 a month for 150 AI-handled minutes.
It handles your approved FAQs, lead capture and booking. Extra minutes, number rental and carrier charges are billed separately.
It works on every plan, so even a one-person Canberra business sounds like it has a front office.
Automated quoting agent
Yes, LYD Solar Suite includes an AI quoting agent for electricians. It drafts quotes so you do not type them up at night.
The agent works from the enquiry, any photos and your own price list.
You stay in charge. Every quote waits for your approval.
A gas to electric upgrades enquiry at 9pm becomes a draft quote waiting for you in the morning.
Business automation
Automation means the small jobs do themselves: texts, reminders, follow-ups and bookings.
From Launch up, you get online booking, missed-call text-back and instant lead alerts. WhatsApp can be added.
Elevate adds a quote follow-up journey. Dominate adds advanced multi-step workflows.
For custom work, like syncing jobs with your accounting, Sharktech builds the automation for you.
Business intelligence and reporting
Yes, you can see which jobs and which marketing make you money.
Every plan has a lead dashboard. Elevate adds a monthly report on where leads came from.
Dominate shows which suburb, product and campaign each Canberra booking came from. A monthly strategy session reviews it.
Want the full picture? Sharktech builds Power BI dashboards across your CRM, accounts and jobs.
Cyber security and managed IT
Any business that pays invoices is a target for invoice fraud. Sharktech helps electrical businesses lock that down.
Managed IT covers helpdesk, Microsoft 365, cloud, Essential Eight aligned security and safe AI rollout, for one monthly fee.
A Security Health Check rates you against the Essential Eight. Phishing training and email fraud protection come next.
When Sharktech rolls out AI agents, each one has limited access and a person approves the important steps.
Solar and batteries

Canberra already runs on 100% renewable electricity. Households here are moving off gas and into batteries and heat pumps. Buyers are well informed and expect proper paperwork.
