You hired an agency. They built a website, ran some ads, and handed the account to a junior coordinator.
Twelve months later, you're in the same spot.
This is a different model.
Most contractors have a rough sense of where their leads come from. Ads, referrals, their Google listing. Not many have dug into the actual data.
When you look at where customers really come from before they call, a pattern shows up. Different customers found you on different surfaces. Some came through an ad. Some called directly
from the Map Pack. Some found a blog post that answered a question and contacted you weeks later. Some saw you mentioned in an AI-generated answer.
That pattern shows up in every market, in every trade.
The agencies that miss it are the ones handing your account to someone who's never run a campaign for a contractor, optimizing one channel while three others go untouched, and billing you for twelve months of motion without progress.
The LDC Framework is built around that pattern.
You build a presence on each surface in the right sequence, starting with Google Ads because they produce results fast.
Then you layer in the others so your cost per customer drops over time and your lead flow stops depending on any single channel.
With Google Ads done properly, you can generate $7-$10 for each $1 you spend.
But you need to set the campaign properly, and it's not by following Google's recommendations.
We created a free guide to help you with every step when setting up your first campaign on Google Ads. including why you MUST avoid following Google's recommendations in the beginning.
