LEAD ENGINE VS GOOGLE LOCAL SERVICES ADS

Google Local Services Ads vs Booked Roof Inspections for Roofers

Lead Engine Sales and Marketing works the other way: US based callers phone homeowners in your zip codes and book the roof inspection on your calendar, at least 6 shown residential or 4 shown commercial a week, for one roofing contractor per market. Many roofers run both.
