Most service businesses aren't losing jobs on price.
They're losing them because nobody answers the phone after 5 pm.
when an emergency hits at 7:30 at night, people don't wait until 9 am tomorrow. They keep calling down Google until someone (or an automated system) answers.
We audited a seven-figure service business last month. They missed 18 calls in one week outside business hours.
At a $2,500 average ticket and a 30% close rate, that's over $13,000 in revenue gone in seven days to the competitor down the street who picked up.
Before you spend another dollar trying to buy more leads, fix your speed to lead.
Response time beats a bigger ad budget every single time.
