Ep. 017: Where Do You Land? | the follow-through.

Are You Actually Getting Leads — Or Just Getting Ignored? Clayton Graba (Kaeru CX) and Jeff Gutowski (Break the Image) sit down to have a brutally honest conversation about why so many contractors and service businesses are leaving money on the table — and they're not holding back. From AI-generated flyers flooding social media to websites that look great but convert nobody, they break down what's actually happening in the digital marketing world right now. You'll hear why a pretty website means absolutely nothing if no one can find it, why your follow-up system is either working like a spider web or costing you jobs, and why the leads you're already getting might be slipping right through your fingers. They also tackle the 24/7 reality of today's customers — the ones filling out contact forms at 10pm on a Sunday — and what you need to have in place so you never miss an opportunity again. If you've ever thought "I need more leads" — you might just need to do more with the ones you already have. 🔗 Ready to stop missing leads and start closing them? 👉 Check out Kaeru CX [https://advantage.kaerucx.com/]: 👉 Or visit Stop Missed Leads: [https://stopmissedleads.com/]
