Ben's story

Why I work with home service companies

I've spent more than 20 years growing local businesses, and three of them were my own. I founded and exited all three before I started Sure Shot Systems, so I know what a slow month feels like from the owner's chair.

As an owner, I felt the frustration of juggling marketing tasks that should have been working together and weren't. So when I talk with an owner now, I start with the whole business: where the work comes from, where it gets lost, and which problem is costing you the most right now.

I work with home service companies because the problems that hold them back are concrete, and you can see the fix in the numbers: an open technician seat, customers who buy once and disappear, homeowners who can't find you on Google, calls that go to voicemail after hours. We pick the one that matters most to you and fix it first.

I make every callback myself and I'm on every strategy call after that, because the owner of a home service company should talk to the person who'll do the work. If I don't think we can help, I'll tell you, along with what I'd do in your shoes.

1

It takes 15 to 30 minutes on the phone, at a time that suits you during US business hours.

Ben asks what's holding your company back: hiring techs, maintenance plans, getting found on Google, after-hours calls or something else.

3

He shows you what he found when he looked at your market before the call.

4

He tells you what he'd do first, what it would cost and whether he thinks we're a good fit.

If Google is part of the problem, you also keep your Demand Gap Snapshot.

There's nothing to buy on the call, and nobody will ask you to decide anything.
