Client Overview

About the Client

The client operates a fast-growing home services business across multiple cities. They had strong operations but were struggling with unpredictable lead flow and inefficient marketing spend. However, despite healthy demand in their markets, growth felt unpredictable. Some weeks service bays were full, while other weeks technicians sat idle. Marketing spend kept increasing, but booked appointments did not scale proportionally. They didn’t lack demand — they lacked a reliable lead-to-booking system.

THE CHALLENGE

The Problem

Before working with Growth Heist, the business was facing:

Inconsistent daily and weekly job bookings

Rising cost per lead from Google Ads and local marketing

Too many low-quality or irrelevant enquiries

Missed calls and slow response times

Website traffic that didn’t convert into calls or bookings

Over-reliance on one acquisition channel

Business Impact:

Technicians had idle time on some days and were overloaded on others. Revenue was volatile and hard to predict.

THE DIAGNOSIS

What We Found

After auditing their growth system, we discovered:

Traffic was being sent to generic pages instead of service-specific pages

Mobile experience (where most traffic came from) was poor

No proper call tracking or quality measurement

No retargeting or recovery system for lost visitors

Weak and inconsistent follow-up for missed calls and form leads

No proper visibility into which leads actually turned into jobs

Conclusion:

They didn’t have a demand problem. They had a booking and response system problem.

THE STRATEGY
