Plain-English answers
What buyers ask first.
Meta Ads
Best for storm campaigns and replacement offers. Lower intent, higher volume. Needs strong qualification.
Local SEO
Best long-term play — Google Business Profile, service-area pages, and reviews. Slow to build; durable once it ranks.
HomeAdvisor / Angi
Best for quick inbound volume. Shared leads, tight margins.
Door-to-door (canvassing)
Best in active storm zones. Operationally heavy; weather-dependent.
Pay-per-appointment
Best when leadership wants predictable cost per booked appointment without managing ad accounts internally.
At a glance
- No single channel wins; mix beats monoculture
- Storm seasonality drives mix
- Track cost per booked appointment, not cost per lead
FAQ
Quick answers
