Let’s be real. If you're paying $299/month for SEO…. You're not getting SEO. You're getting a spreadsheet. A monthly email. Maybe some templated blog post nobody reads. What you’re not getting:. → Location-specific service pages.→ Competitive research.→ Local keyword.

How fast do you really respond to new leads? . Be honest because most teams are way slower than they think. We ran a response audit on multiple clients: owners guessed their team replied “within 15 minutes.” . The reality? The average was 47 minutes. Worst case: the lead.

Ever notice that the contractors with loyal, repeat clients are almost never the “lowest price” but always the best at staying in touch?. A lot of teams work their tails off to finish jobs, then vanish once the check clears. We’ve found the highest-revenue clients stick to one.

How often do “hot” leads go cold because someone dropped the ball—again?. Look, I get it - contractors are busy. You’re handling jobs, managing subs, juggling a thousand things. That’s exactly when the follow-up slips. We reviewed our clients’ pipelines last quarter and.

Tough question for every owner: If you step away, does your crew keep handling new calls. or does your whole business grind to a halt?. We see this with so many contractors. For a long time, if the boss wasn’t there, every new lead went to voicemail or got lost in the shuffle.

Why does every “lead gen” agency brag about big numbers, but nobody talks about the 88% of leads that never book a call?. Because it’s easier to hide behind stats than fix the system. We dug through client the agency with beautiful reports landed them zero extra jobs. But the.

Real numbers, real lessons. Last quarter, a paver company tried to DIY their ad campaigns. After $4K spent, zero booked jobs. We stepped in—mapped their intake process, rebuilt speed-to-lead, ran localized ads. Result?. → 127 leads, 14 closed jobs, $92K revenue… on less,.

Most Contractors Lose Money After the Phone Rings, Not Before. Last month, a contractor told me: “We have a lead shortage.”. I asked, “How long does it take your team to return a call?”. He guessed 10 minutes. It was 47. That’s not a marketing issue, that’s death by.

When your clients Meta ads are generating $26.50 for every $1 spent…. You stop questioning if marketing works. You start asking where to double down. - $212K revenue from $8K spend. - $40 CPL. - 42.9% close rate. - System > spray-and-pray.

“We’ve got enough work for now.”. I hear that a lot. And 90% of the time, it’s followed by:. “Can we start something next month?”. That’s the cycle. → Busy → slow → panic → repeat. But being busy isn’t the goal. Being booked out is. → Busy means scrambling to fill next.

Most business owners have been burned. → Paid for ads that didn’t convert.→ Paid for SEO that didn’t move the needle.→ Paid someone who vanished after month 2. So now they’re skeptical. I get it. We’ve picked up dozens of clients after they’ve gone through 2–3 other.

You’re running ads. You’re getting calls. But the pipeline still feels empty. Here’s what we usually find:. → Calls going to voicemail.→ Quotes delayed.→ No one actually following up. This is where good marketing dies. It’s not the leads. It’s the system that catches them.

“We’re too busy to work on marketing right now.”. Every contractor who’s about to hit a dry spell. Being busy ≠ being booked. → Busy = scrambling.→ Booked = selective. One creates stress. One creates scale. The difference?. Systems. You don’t fix the roof when it’s raining.

40% of the leads you think are “bad”…. Were just never followed up with properly. That’s what we see inside dozens of local businesses every month. → Calls missed.→ Quotes delayed.→ No automation. And then they say “the leads suck.”. The leads don’t suck. The system does.
