Google Business, map pack rankings, and the review cadence that keeps you on page one without an agency retainer. This post breaks down exactly how we did it — the ad creative, the intake flow, the follow-up cadence, and the numbers behind each step. Every figure is from a real account. We've changed the dealer's name; everything else is verbatim from the CRM.

Why the Standard Approach Fails

Most cabinet dealers rely on referrals because that is what has always worked. The problem: referrals don't scale and you can't predict the volume. When a slow month hits, there's nothing to pull.

Paid ads seem like the fix, but most dealers who try them burn $2,000–$5,000 in the first 60 days with nothing to show — because the intake process is broken. A lead comes in, and nobody follows up fast enough.
