What is different here

How painting leads actually behave

Painting leads compare finishes, schedules, cleanup, and whether the crew can be trusted inside the property. Real before-and-after work and a clear estimate process do more than a gallery of stock rooms ever will.

Interior, exterior, cabinet, and commercial projects have different buyers and margins. Separate campaigns let each one carry the right imagery, proof, and call to action.

Seasonality

Exterior demand follows dry weather. Interior and cabinet work stays steadier and lifts before moves, listings, and major holidays.

What a lead is worth

Judged against your own job value, not a category average. Bring your numbers to the call and we will do that arithmetic with you.

How we would structure it

Your painting services, grouped into campaigns

Services that share a buyer, a pitch and a landing page run as one campaign. Services that do not, do not. That grouping is the only thing that decides your price.

Here is the full set for painting. Most businesses run two or three of these, not all four. Count the ones you sell and that is your plan.

  • Whole-home painting
  • Room painting
  • Drywall repair and paint
Campaign 1 Interior painting
  • House exterior
  • Stucco painting
  • Deck and fence staining
Campaign 2 Exterior painting
  • Cabinet painting
  • Cabinet refinishing
  • Built-in finishing
Campaign 3 Cabinet finishing
  • Office painting
  • Multifamily painting
  • Industrial coatings
Campaign 4 Commercial painting

What we run for painting contractors

Google Ads

Search campaigns are split across interior painting, exterior painting, cabinet finishing, commercial painting. Each gets its own budget, search language, location matching, and landing page so the most urgent service cannot consume the entire account.

Meta Ads

Meta builds familiarity before the search and follows up with people who visited without contacting. Real work, real people, and proof from the market outperform generic creative for painting contractors.

How we run Meta Ads

Yelp Ads

Yelp catches buyers already comparing local options. We complete the profile, manage keyword coverage, track calls, and answer inquiries quickly through ResponseGuard as part of the same campaign system.

Painting questions

Asked on nearly every painting call.

Should every painting service run in one campaign?

No. Interior painting, Exterior painting, Cabinet finishing, Commercial painting reflect different buyers or decisions. Services can share a campaign when they share the same intent and page. When they do not, separating them protects the budget and makes the result readable.

Which channel matters most for painting contractors?

Google usually captures the immediate demand, Meta creates familiarity and follow-up, and Yelp helps settle the trust decision. The mix changes by service and market, which is why all three sit with one team instead of competing agencies.

How do you know which campaign produced a real opportunity?

Every campaign uses tracked calls and forms. Calls can be recorded, transcribed, and classified with AI, which lets the team separate a real service conversation from spam or a poor fit rather than optimizing toward a raw lead count.

Do you build a separate landing page for painting campaigns?

Yes. The page can match the visitor location and search phrase, then present the relevant service, proof, and next step. That is more useful than sending every click to a general company homepage.
