About Me

My name is Jose Mario Hernandez, Jr. and I have been in the locksmith business in Chicago, Illinois for over twenty years. I have surmounted many hurdles and have to thank some smart decisions I took in my locksmith & locksmith marketing efforts.

I am a certified locksmith in the State of Illinois and the Chief Executive Officer of Omega Locksmith which I founded in 1994. A second-generation locksmith following in the footsteps of my father and proud to have over 20 years of experience serving the residents of Chicago. My early schooling was at J. Sterling Morton East High School in Chicago followed by a degree in Morton College, Cicero, IL. I am also an ardent Chicago Cubs fan, a loving husband and a doting father of two wonderful kids.

About My Locksmith Marketing Business

I also run a locksmith marketing agency called Omega Locksmith Marketing. My goal is to help fellow locksmith businesses thrive (check out this blog post on Is locksmith still a great career choice?) with calls directly to your place of work. While there are some similar services out there, Omega Locksmith Marketing is the only company that caters specifically to locksmiths all around the country. As a practicing locksmith, I understand the precise needs of clients.

Today, marketing can be a major frustration and very time-consuming. Nonetheless, it is something all successful locksmiths must do! As someone who is a member of the ALOA and knows the locksmith market like the back of their hand, I can help you get the live phone calls you deserve with the right marketing automation and SEO deals.

I am also active on Locksmith Facebook groups and Clear star, so I am able to generate leads through numerous channels including Facebook but Google My Business remains one of my favorites.

I rank on top for so many keywords in my area. Hey, I don’t offer this service to folks in Chicago, but any other city in the US is welcome! This service can directly flood relevant locksmith-oriented calls to your locksmith business.
