Contractors.
Which jobs suit it, what it costs, what to post.
Written by the team that runs the accounts.
Meta Is for the Job
They Have Not Searched for Yet.
Key takeaway: Use Meta for planned work and quiet weeks, and Google search for emergencies.
Back to contentsWhat Meta Ads Cost.
Key takeaway: Treat published lead costs as a marker and judge on cost per booked job.
Back to contentsFour Levels, One
Inside the Other.
Account, campaign, ad set, ad. Each level has one job.
Key takeaway: Set the goal on the campaign, the people on the ad set, the message on the ad.
Back to contentsThree Screens, Three Shapes.
Feed, Stories and Reels show the same ad differently.
Key takeaway: Shoot photos and short videos that work tall as well as square.
Back to contentsFour Posts That Get Calls.
None of them look like an ad.
The Finished Job
Before and after, same angle. The most reliable post in the trade.
The Crew
Faces and names. People hire people, especially for work inside the house.
The Price
A number, openly. It filters out the tire-kickers before they call.
The Neighborhood
Work you did on their street beats any headline about quality.
Key takeaway: Real job photos beat stock, every time.
Back to contentsFollow-Up, Forms and Tracking.
The parts that decide whether a lead turns into a booked job.
Follow-Up Speed
A Meta lead is colder than a search lead, so a fast call matters.
Calling in five minutes beats calling an hour later.
Lead Form or Landing Page
Forms fill more because nothing has to load. A landing page usually brings a better-qualified visitor. We run both and let your numbers decide.
Tracking
Install the Meta pixel and the Conversions API, and count each call and form once.
Send booked jobs back from your job software so Meta learns which leads turn into work.
See conversion tracking setup.
What to Measure
Cost per lead first, then how many of those leads book work. A cheap lead that never answers the phone is not a cheap lead.
Key takeaway: Call fast, test form against page, and send booked jobs back to Meta.
Back to contentsThe Learning Phase, in One Picture.
Costs swing at first, then settle. Edits restart it.
Key takeaway: Make one big change at a time, then leave the ad set alone for a week.
Back to contents
A Phone Is the Best Camera.
Stock photos look like every other ad.
A real truck in a real driveway does not.
