$7.63 cost per lead

From about 15 leads a month at $80–300 each to a $7.63 cost per lead — 5,665 leads in 2025, sustained for 18 months.

The client

Delco Air is a New Jersey HVAC contractor — heating and cooling installs and service for homeowners across their local market.

The problem

Before us, they were getting about 15 leads a month, and paying anywhere from $80 to $300 for each one. Volume was thin and the cost was unpredictable.

What we did

We rebuilt their Google presence as a local stack that works together: Google Search and Performance Max ads, Local Service Ads, and their Google Business Profile. The goal was steady, affordable local demand — not one good month.

Pillars used: Google Ads, Local Service Ads, Google Business Profile.

The results

  • One month peaked at 1,375 leads at $2.85 each.
  • 5,665 leads in 2025 at a $7.63 cost per lead.
  • Sustained for 18 months — not a one-month spike.

An honest note: we revamped conversion tracking right at the inflection point, so the exact before/after cost-per-lead isn’t a clean apples-to-apples comparison — but the sustained lead volume that followed is real, and Delco’s paid results are a Google story, not a Meta one.

If you run a local service business and want lead flow you can count on, let’s talk.
