The scoreboard

Every number here is Owen's own statement on our July call, quoted as said.

  • $140K all of last year, $200K by early July, tracking $250K. “Almost double.”
  • Working about 10 hours a week
  • Average job size “almost triple”
  • Booking $10K to $20K a week, “and we’re not trying very hard”
  • Reactivation kicking back “10, 15, 20 free leads a week”

Where he started

Owen was the classic owner operator. Decent revenue, but every dollar of it ran through him, including knocking doors for demand. $140K a year is a real business until you realize the owner is the business, and the moment he stops pushing, everything stops with him.

What we built, in order

  1. An inbound engine that replaced door knocking. Ads and reactivation doing the demand work the knocking used to do. His words: “we don’t knock at all.”
  2. Speed to lead and follow up. Nothing goes uncalled, nothing gets forgotten. The system chases so he does not have to.
  3. A booking and ops flow that runs without him. Jobs get scheduled, confirmed and worked whether Owen is watching or not. That is where the 10 hour week comes from.

What happened

In his words: $140K all of last year, $200K by early July, on pace for $250K, while his average job nearly tripled and his week shrank to about 10 hours. The reactivation list alone hands him 10 to 20 warm leads a week that cost nothing. He went from doing the business to owning it.

In his words

“The difference between going with an agency like Summit and doing it yourself is you're probably already soaking the cost somewhere anyway... leads going uncalled, customers going unanswered... why not invest in your own efficiency? Do I want to run a more efficient business, or am I okay with my own inefficiency?”Owen, on camera, July call

Steal this move

The inefficiency audit. This week, count three things: calls you missed, leads that waited an hour or more for a reply, and quotes you never followed up on. Multiply the total by your average job value. That number is the invoice your own inefficiency sends you every month. You are already paying for a system, you are just paying it in lost jobs.
