Common problems

Where Is Your Marketing Losing Jobs?

Pick the one that sounds most like your home service company. Here is what we check first.

Your numbers

You can't name the channel that booked your last five jobs

  1. 1Can you see which channel brought in each booked job, or just a pile of receipts?
  2. 2Do you have one vendor for Google Ads, another for the website and another for SEO, and nobody responsible for all of it?
  3. 3Is anyone sitting down with you every month to decide what to cut and where the next dollar goes?

Where we usually startCall tracking on every lead and one report with every channel and every dollar

or call (833) 827-4425

Your name

Homeowners can't tell you apart from the other companies bidding the same job

  1. 1Does your Google profile show real photos of your crews and your work, or a few old photos?
  2. 2Is your star rating and review count winning the homeowner who gets three quotes?
  3. 3Does your website lead with your work and a call button, or a stock photo and a form at the bottom?

Where we usually startA review request after every job, your Google profile, and a website built to book the job

or call (833) 827-4425

Your website

People visit and leave without calling

  1. 1Does your site load fast on a phone, with a call button at the top of every page?
  2. 2Does every service you sell have its own page, with real photos of your crews and your work?
  3. 3Do you know how many calls and forms your website brought in last month?

Where we usually startA website built to book jobs, with call tracking on every page

or call (833) 827-4425

Slow months

The phone goes quiet and your crews sit

  1. 1Are you only marketing when you're busy, and scrambling when it slows down?
  2. 2Do you have past customers you never hear from again, with no follow-up or referral ask?
  3. 3Are your reviews and rankings growing in the slow months, so you're ready when it picks up?

Where we usually startYear-round ads planned around your season, plus your reviews and rankings

Why owners pick us

Why Direct Mail Still Works for Contractors

✓

Homeowners still read mail

Email has 1-3% open rates. Direct mail has 80%+ open rates for homeowners 45+. For high-ticket home services, mail physically sits on the counter until the homeowner makes a decision.

✓

Storm + seasonal mail wins

After a storm, homeowners WANT your postcard. For seasonal services (tree trimming, gutter cleaning, mulch), mail hitting the week intent peaks converts at 2-3x email.

✓

Mail + digital stacks great

Homeowners who get a postcard and then see your Facebook retargeting ad convert at 3-4x vs either channel alone. We pair every mail drop with digital retargeting.

✓

We don't send generic mail

Most agencies send the same "We're the Best in Town" postcard. We write direct-response copy with specific offers, neighborhood-level targeting, and tracking - the stuff that actually gets called.

Week 1: Strategy + Targeting

4

Week 4+: Track + Iterate

Log every call. Measure response by zip and offer. Schedule drop #2 based on what performed best.

Questions

Direct Mail: Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of response rate can I expect?

EDDM saturation mailings typically produce 0.5-1.5% response. Targeted homeowner lists produce 2-5% response. For seasonal services (storm response, gutter cleaning, tree work in spring) we regularly see 4-7% on well-timed drops.

What does direct mail cost?

EDDM runs about $0.28 per piece all-in (design, print, postage). Targeted first-class is about $0.55-$0.70 per piece. A typical 5,000-piece drop costs $1,400-$3,500. We recommend 3-5 drops spread over 60-90 days for real compounding results.

How long until I see leads from a mail drop?

Mail hits homes 5-10 days after drop. First calls start that week. The bulk of response comes in weeks 2-4 after the mail arrives. Some homeowners save the postcard and call months later - we've had leads come in 6+ months post-drop.

Which is better: EDDM or targeted mail?

EDDM is cheaper per piece and works for high-volume services (tree, lawn, gutters). Targeted mail is more expensive per piece but produces 2-3x the response for higher-ticket services (windows, flooring, roofing). Most clients run both.

Should I mail year-round or seasonally?

Both. Year-round mail builds brand recognition so your name is already familiar when a homeowner needs you. Seasonal blasts (after storms, before winter, early spring) capture the peak intent moments. Our best clients run a 12-month schedule with seasonal surges.

How do I track whether mail is actually working?

Every campaign gets a unique tracked phone number printed on the piece. Every call is recorded, scored, and tied back to the mailing. You'll know exactly how much revenue every $1 spent on mail produced - same transparency as digital.
