Gain critical insight into your marketing efforts by measuring the right variables. It's not just about clicks and conversions!

Joining us on the podcast today is Kevin Lesage, the CEO of SearchLight.

SearchLight works with home service contractors to connect channel data, website data, conversion tool data, and CRM data together to offer a clear picture of revenue flow. Kevin and his team measure revenue from lead to CRM to help you understand what's driving revenue, how you can improve operationally, and to hold their advertising vendors accountable for performance.

You need to understand where your money is going and what marketing tactics are driving results for your business. A comprehensive marketing strategy includes measuring key metrics like average cost per job, average ticket per job, and average book job cost. While having a reporting system and call tracking numbers is a good start, it's important to capture revenue from non-phone channels like chat, online schedulers, and form submissions. But with so much happening on your website, it can be challenging to keep track of it all.

By capturing every event, you'll gain valuable insights to help you make informed decisions about your marketing efforts.

In this podcast episode, you'll learn...

USING INBOUND CONTENT MARKETING TO ADD AN EXTRA $1M IN HVAC SALES

Struggling with not generating enough sales, opportunities, and jobs?

Would you like an "easy to do" strategy for how an HVAC company generated an extra $1M in revenue? 

(And how you can too...?)

Most companies fail to differentiate themselves in a competitive market. This can lead you to feel frustrated that the phones aren't ringing and you don't know what to do. 

Yet the right strategy is out there...

You just don't know about it...yet. 

In this podcast, we're speaking with Chris Duprey, the Master Coach at IMPACT. IMPACT is best known for its book and business framework, "They Ask, You Answer" (one of my favorite books!)

"They Ask, You Answer" is a simple philosophy to answer the questions your customers have (duh!). 

Yet, most companies fail to answer customer questions online and miss out on positioning themselves as the authority in their market, building trust with potential customers, increasing your website traffic without having to spend so much on ads, generating an extra six to seven figures through inbound content marketing, and a lot more.

So, you'll want to tune into today's episode, and learn...
