Shoulder-season ad spend bleeds money
Most HVAC accounts run flat-spend year-round. The result: hundreds wasted in March/October on cold demand, and not enough firepower in July/January when calls are stacking up. Spend has to flex with the curve.
Top-3 Map Pack target in 90 days. Booked calls in your busy months and your slow ones, built around your service mix and your replacement-cycle homes.

Three patterns we see in almost every hvac account we audit.
Most HVAC accounts run flat-spend year-round. The result: hundreds wasted in March/October on cold demand, and not enough firepower in July/January when calls are stacking up. Spend has to flex with the curve.
Generic 'AC repair' targeting wins cheap clicks that close at $200, while 'AC replacement' (the $9K install) is left on the table. Service-mix bidding is the difference between booking trips and booking projects.
In competitive HVAC markets, the GBPs that hold the 3-pack often carry 200+ reviews. Most shops sit at 40–80 because reviews depend on a tech remembering to ask. A real review system is what closes that gap.
HVAC has its own demand cycle, its own buyer behavior, its own high-margin job mix. We build every campaign around that, not a template carried over from another industry.
What works at $1M is different from what works at $5M. Quick guidance on where to focus first.
Most hvac shops at this stage are leaving Map Pack calls on the table. Our focus: GBP rebuilt, citation cleanup, review velocity automation, and a site that actually converts. Then we layer in paid.
At $2M+, the local foundation is usually solid; the leak is paid. We layer Spectrum Reach household-targeted streaming, multi-engine search ads, and AI search visibility on top of the SEO base.
These are cited industry benchmarks, not promises. Real numbers swing hard by market: a top-10 metro behaves nothing like a tier-3 town, and competition, service area, and budget all move them. Treat every range here as a starting point we calibrate to your market on the strategy call. The source is pinned under each number so you can audit it.
Combined ad spend + retainer across paid search, Local SEO, and site SEO. Revenue assumes typical close rates and a service/replacement mix.
From accounts we run today, not last year's playbook.
Budget shifts with the calendar: lighter through the slow months, heavier when the calls spike. Cash flow is protected and peak demand is captured.
Separate landing pages and GBP categories per service (AC repair, AC install, heating, maintenance plans) so each ranks for its own intent and converts at its own CPL.
Post-job text request, second-touch ask, in-truck QR codes, so reviews arrive on a steady cadence instead of whenever a tech remembers to ask.

Not a deck, not a theory. The work that ships every cycle, in the order it ships, on every hvac engagement.
We don't waste budget in the slow months. We shift spend to capture peak demand and protect cash flow off-season.
Repair vs. install vs. maintenance plan, each has a different CPL. We optimize per service, not per click.
A steady stream of reviews is one of the strongest Map Pack signals, and the credibility homeowners look for. We build the system so reviews come in consistently, not by accident.
Funnels designed for replacement quotes, financing pre-quals, and 0% promotional offers.
One location or twelve. We architect service-area pages and citation profiles that scale cleanly.
Exclusive household-level data across the Spectrum Reach footprint. Target install-ready homes, not just clickers.
