Most marketing agencies hand you a report full of impressions and cost per lead. We run the ads, chase the calls and book the work — then hand every booked job to your dispatch software with the campaign that produced it attached.
Free 30-minute look at where your calls come from now. No deck, no retainer talk.
Diagram: four inbound channels — Local Services Ads, Google Ads, maps and organic listings, and Meta ads — feed into the Trade Makers routing layer, which tags every call and passes it into a four-stage pipeline: new call, contacted, quoted, then booked.

Your phone is the pipeline.
Diagram: inbound calls from many homeowners narrow through the pipeline — new call, contacted, quoted — down to booked jobs.
Four things quietly cost home service companies more booked work than a bad ad campaign ever will.
The call nobody answers
The burst pipe at 9pm and the dead furnace on Sunday are the highest-intent calls you get, and they land when the office is shut. A homeowner with no hot water does not leave a voicemail. They hang up and call the next company on the list.
You are renting leads you could own
Lead vendors sell the same homeowner to four contractors and let you race for them. You pay for the call whether or not you were first, and you are building somebody else's asset while you do it.
The estimate that goes cold
A replacement quote sits for two weeks with nobody chasing it. The job goes to whoever called back on day three, and it never shows up in a report as a loss because it was never counted as a win.
Nobody can tell you what actually worked
The ads report shows clicks and cost per lead. Neither tells you which of the jobs you booked last month came from which channel, or what they were worth once the tech was paid.
Demand capture, then follow-through.
Don't rent shared leads from a vendor when you can own the phone number they ring. The ads create the call; everything after it exists so the call becomes a job on the board.
Local Services Ads
The Google Guaranteed slot above every other result, where a homeowner in trouble taps first. Managed alongside search so the two stop bidding against each other for the same call.
Google Ads
Buy only the searches with a job behind them. Call-only campaigns for emergencies, tight radius targeting, and budget pulled off anything that rings but never books.
Maps & local SEO
The map pack is where the non-emergency work comes from. Google Business Profile, review velocity and service-area pages built for the towns you actually drive to.
Website development
Fast on a phone in a driveway, with the number tappable above the fold and a booking form that asks for four things. Built as static pages, so there is no plugin stack to slow down or break.
Missed-call text-back
An unanswered call gets a text inside a minute, so the homeowner is talking to you instead of dialling the next number. Estimates get chased on a schedule until they are booked or closed out.
Dispatch CRM
Every call, form and text lands in one pipeline with its source attached — so you can finally see which channel produced the booked job, not just the clicks.
How the first ninety days actually go.
The numbers below are a real sequence — each step depends on the one before it. Running ads into intake that cannot answer the phone is how a budget gets wasted.
01
Week 1
We take apart what you run now
Ad accounts, map rankings, site speed, who answers the phone at 6pm, and what happens to a call after it arrives. You get the findings whether or not you hire us.
02
Weeks 2–4
We fix the intake before the ads
Tracking numbers on every channel, missed-call text-back live, the booking form cut down, and the handoff into your FSM tested with real jobs. Before a dollar of ad spend.
03
Week 5
We turn on demand capture
LSA, search and maps go live together on your highest-margin services, in the radius you actually drive — not a fifty-mile circle that sends vans across the county.
04
Ongoing
We cut, then scale
Monthly, we look at booked jobs by channel — not calls — and pull budget off the services and areas that ring the phone without filling the board.
One board. Every job, sourced.
A call is only worth what you book. Every call we generate lands in one pipeline with its source attached, gets answered automatically when nobody picks up, and stays visible until it is booked or closed out.
Speed to lead, automated
A missed call gets a text and an email inside 60 seconds, day or night — before the homeowner finishes working down the list of companies they found.
Source attached to every job
Calls, forms and texts arrive tagged with the channel, campaign and keyword that produced them, and carry that tag through to the booked job.
It feeds your FSM, it does not replace it
ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber and Service Fusion stay your system of record. We hand off at booking; nothing about how your office dispatches or invoices changes.
Reporting in booked jobs, not clicks
One monthly view: calls, estimates given and jobs booked by channel, so you can see what each dollar actually bought.
Measured in booked jobs, not clicks.
The four numbers a home service owner can actually act on. Every one traces back to a named job on the board.

Straight answers.
Do we have to move off ServiceTitan?
No. Your field service software stays your system of record — ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, Service Fusion, whatever you run. We sit in front of it and handle the part before the job exists: the ad, the call, the follow-up, the estimate chase. Once something books, the attribution travels with it so you can see which channel paid for it.
Do you sell shared leads?
No. Everything we run generates calls that come to you and only you, on numbers you own.
The one exception is Google's Local Services Ads, where Google itself may send the same homeowner to more than one business. That is Google's product rather than a lead vendor, and it is exactly why speed to first contact gets built before LSA is switched on.
What size company is this for?
It works best from roughly three vans upward. Below that the constraint is usually capacity rather than demand, and more calls make the problem worse instead of better. We will say so on the call rather than sell you something that will not help.
How fast will I see results?
Intake changes show up in the first fortnight, because they act on calls you are already getting — the missed ones.
Paid channels need roughly two months before the booked-job numbers are worth reading, and map rankings take longer than that. Anyone promising a transformed pipeline in week one is selling you the report, not the jobs.
Do you work with trades other than HVAC, plumbing and electrical?
Sometimes. Roofing, garage door, drain and appliance repair run on the same mechanics — urgent demand, a phone that has to be answered, a job booked within days.
Remodel and new construction do not. The cycle is months rather than days and the follow-up is a different build. Ask on the call and we will tell you straight.
Do you work with my competitors?
Not in the same market. We take one company per trade per market, because we would otherwise be bidding against ourselves on the same keywords with your money.
Who owns the ad accounts?
You do. Accounts are created under your business, we are granted access, and if we part ways that access is removed and everything stays where it is — history, tracking numbers and all.
Let's look at your board.
Thirty minutes. We go through where your calls come from now, what happens to the ones you miss, and whether this is worth doing at all. No deck, no retainer talk, and a straight answer if we are not the right fit.
