Key Takeaways:- CPL is not cash: Pair cost per lead with cost of advertising to see real efficiency.
- Cradle-to-grave funnel: Track spend, calls, set rate, dispatch, turnover, and tickets weekly to catch red flags fast.
- Smoking gun metrics: When revenue dips, use funnel data to pinpoint cancel spikes, staffing gaps, or scheduling issues.
- Seasonality matters: HVAC CPLs vary heavily by season, while plumbing CPLs trend lower year-round.
- Grassroots still wins: Stickers, yard signs, and everyday branding deliver more leads than just spending more.
- Freedom with fences: Inspire creativity by setting conditions of satisfaction, not micromanaging.
