A residential HVAC company was running $4,000/month in Google Ads and Local Service Ads. Inbound call volume was healthy — averaging 140 calls per month during peak season. The problem: 47% of those calls went unanswered.
The Leak Breakdown
The Pattern
The business wasn't losing because of bad marketing. The ads were working. The leads were coming in. The leak was in the 47% of calls that rang with no answer — and no follow-up system to recover them. Every unanswered call during peak season was a $680 job walking to a competitor.

A residential plumbing company was generating 80–100 inbound leads per month. Their close rate was 34%. Industry average is 42–55%. The gap wasn't price. It wasn't reputation. It was response time — averaging 2.4 hours.
The Leak Breakdown
The Pattern
Leads contacted within 5 minutes are 21x more likely to convert than leads contacted after 30 minutes. At $520 per job and 30 lost leads per month, the math was brutal — and entirely fixable.

A residential roofing company ran Facebook and Google Ads during peak storm season. Lead volume spiked — 75 inbound leads in a single month. The team was overwhelmed. 55% of those leads received no follow-up within 24 hours. By the time someone called back, the homeowner had already booked with a competitor.
The Leak Breakdown
The Pattern
Storm season is a roofing company's highest-value window — and the most chaotic. When lead volume spikes, manual follow-up breaks down. A response system that operates independently of the team's capacity is the only way to capture the full value of a storm event.
