Case Studies & Proof: Real Examples
Below are anonymized real examples showing the measurable impact of targeted PPC for restoration.
Case Study — WaterRestore LLC (Q1-Q3 2025):
Problem: high CPL (~$120) and low phone answer rate. Action: deployed dedicated landing pages, call tracking, and emergency ad schedules. Results: 58% increase in form leads in 30 days; CPL dropped from $120 to $65; booking rate improved from 9% to 12%.
Case Study — Charlotte Storm Response (2026):
Problem: sudden demand spike during a localized storm. Action: launched emergency landing pages by zip code in hours and ramped bids during peak hours. Results: captured calls in 3 days with average CPL of $52; average job value $1,350; revenue from ads in the 7-day window exceeded ad spend by 3.5x.
Tracking ROI: Break-Even Calculator
Use a simple ROI calculator to determine break-even CPL. Inputs: average job value, lead-to-sale %, CPL, and monthly ad spend.
Example calculation:
Average job value: $1,200
Lead-to-sale conversion rate: 10%
Monthly ad spend: $3,000
Average revenue per lead = $1,200 × 0.10 = $120
Break-even CPL = $120
If actual CPL is lower than $120, every lead generates profit above ad spend. Run scenarios with conservative and optimistic inputs to plan budget scaling.
These case studies differ by vertical: plumbers need appointment slots and form bookings, HVAC needs seasonal ramping, and attorneys require lead qualification forms and intake routing.
