The Scout’s Report is a half-day strategy session for home-service businesses that reveals blind spots, fixes accountability gaps, and builds your next 90-day plan.

Your Scout’s Report audits every dollar using the Functional Marketing® Framework, shows which vendors are earning their keep, and outlines the 3–6 month campaigns most likely to grow profit.
Tie ‘conversions’ to booked jobs and revenue, not clicks.
Ditch vanity ‘keyword rankings’ for ROI signals that matter.
Judge ‘engagement’ by cost to acquire a customer, not likes.
One owner in Phoenix put it this way:
“We were spending across five vendors and couldn’t tie reports to jobs. After the Scout’s Report, we knew what to cut, what to scale, and had a 90-day plan to execute.”

Most owners don’t have a single source of truth for marketing ROI.
Vendors know you’re too busy running jobs to dig deep, so they send shiny reports that sound impressive but never answer the question: Which dollars actually worked?
The Result?
$15K–$25K+ spent monthly with no single source of truth.
Vendor reports that sound good but don’t map to jobs and revenue.
Competitors outrun you while decisions stall without data.
Run marketing like operations: know costs, margins, and winners before you scale. Your Scout’s Report shows what’s working, arms you for vendor meetings, and gives you confidence to reallocate budget fast.
Clarity. Control. Confidence in your marketing decisions — plus a short preparatory phase to gather everything we need before your session.
A 14-day preparatory period conducted through email correspondence to collect necessary data and access points. This ensures every metric and account is properly connected before your strategy session.
Timeline is dependent on how quickly access and data are provided.


Following the preparatory period, we meet for a half-day (~4-hour) strategy review—virtually or in-person (reasonable travel costs covered by you). Using the Functional Marketing® Framework, we break down what’s working, what’s wasting money, and where to double-down for growth.
Delivery includes your immediate marketing punch list, a list of blindspots, and campaign recommendations for the next 3–6 months—giving you a clear roadmap you can act on right away.

Most home-service companies aren’t failing because they’re bad at what they do — they’re failing because their marketing system isn’t accountable.
The Scout’s Report fixes that by revealing:
Where your marketing dollars actually go (and what’s wasted)
Which vendors and campaigns truly move revenue
How to install one Functional Marketing® system that tracks ROI like job profitability
What to do next, who should do it, and how you’ll measure it
Manage multiple vendors (Google Ads, SEO, Meta, etc.) with unclear ROI
Spend $15K–$25K+ per month on marketing but lack a single source of truth
Want data-driven accountability without hiring a full-time CMO
Are ready to align marketing, operations, and revenue tracking under one system
