Market and operating detail

What creates demand

Paid social creates demand rather than capturing it, which suits high-ticket replacement, remodel and financing-driven offers more than emergency work.

How buyers decide

Longer and less predictable — leads need nurture, and speed to lead determines whether the interest survives the first hour.

The unit economics that matter

Lead-to-appointment and appointment-to-sit rates dominate. Cheap leads with a low sit rate cost far more than expensive ones with a high sit rate.

Where budget goes first

Lead forms and landing pages with immediate automated follow-up, plus retargeting against site visitors and the existing customer list.

The operational constraint

Without an instant-response sequence and a disciplined call cadence, paid social leads decay to nothing within a day.

The pricing and margin lever

Offer structure — financing, seasonal packages, bundled scope — drives performance far more than creative iteration does.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Facebook work for home services?
For replacement, brand, and remarketing — yes. For emergency service, Google and LSA almost always win.
What's a good cost per lead on Meta?
$30-80 for service businesses, $80-200 for replacement. But lead quality varies wildly — booked-job cost matters more.
Should we run Instagram too?
Same Meta system — Instagram placements often outperform Facebook for visual replacement categories (roofing, windows, kitchens).
