“Get off the fence and get in the game. Give it a try. That’s what I did. I was just going to give it a try for a month or two, but I can definitely see it being a long-term thing.”
John Piscarik, Piscarik Services LLC Video testimonial

Word of mouth, and one bad experience with lead vendors

Piscarik Services is a construction company working up and down the state of Delaware, and almost all of its work arrived by word of mouth. The one time they tried buying leads — Thumbtack, years ago — the verdict was blunt: horrible leads that never worked, and prospects who were only ever price shopping. That history is worth naming, because it is why John was, in his own words, very skeptical going in. He wondered outright whether we were scammers.

84 leads at about $8 each

The campaign ran for roughly two and a half weeks on about $670 of ad spend, split between decks and bathrooms. It produced 84 leads at an average cost per lead of around $8. Not all of them were qualified — by our own count roughly half were not, which is normal early on while targeting settles. What came out the other side was 40 to 45 booked appointments inside two to three weeks.

Booked two months out, so we paused the campaign

John was running three to four appointments a week and was booked a month to a month and a half ahead within the first fortnight. Of the first ten appointments he attended, he closed three with a contract signed on a fourth — a 40% close rate. By early in the second month his calendar was full through to mid-April, and we switched the campaign off. There is no point booking a contractor two months in advance of work he cannot get to.
