Getting inbound leads are the first mark of a successful lead generation campaign; however, many times these hot leads still require some nurturing since most don’t convert on their own and need a little help.
This is where the follow-up part of lead nurturing comes in, to prompt those leads to convert.
Unfortunately, marketing research suggests that follow-up is where most small businesses fail at their own lead-nurturing game.
They attract inbound leads with an effective lead generation strategy, then fail to give them the attention they need to actually convert and become customers.
Working Those Leads
How much lead nurturing follow-up should an inbound lead get?
Chris Hunter from RoofingSites.com answers this question in this week’s 3-minute roofer’s marketing video and the answer might be a little surprising.
Presenting current research from Harvard Business Review, Chris discusses the importance of lead nurturing with the right kind of follow-up and how a single call back is not enough.
In fact, roofing companies getting a full stream of active leads through their lead generation campaigns tend to only convert 10% without proper follow-up, as opposed to the 40-50% that convert when businesses use the right follow-up tactics.
For lack of enough follow-up, most roofers let the majority of their great leads go to competitors who are willing to invest in providing the follow-up necessary to coax them into becoming actual, paying customers.

So what does this all mean for today’s roofing contractors struggling with their lead nurturing campaigns?
It highlights the importance of follow-up and the need to dedicate the time as well as sales resources to get more new customers.

In today’s digital landscape, simply having a well-designed website is not enough for roofing businesses aiming to dominate their local markets. Search Engine Optimization or SEO has become an absolute necessity, serving as the backbone of any effective online strategy. Yet for many roofers, navigating the world of digital marketing and leveraging the power of
If you run a roofing business, your phone should be ringing off the hook right now. But instead, you might be watching calls dry up while a competitor three blocks away keeps booking jobs. The difference? That competitor has mastered a small but mighty piece of real estate on Google’s SEO search results page: the
Choosing between Google Ads and Local Service Ads or LSAs can feel like picking between two equally promising paths in your digital marketing strategy. Both platforms drive lead generation, but they operate on fundamentally different models. Understanding those differences is the key to allocating your budget wisely, maximizing conversions, and building a well-rounded online presence.
Roofing is a high-intent, often emergency-driven industry. When a homeowner’s ceiling is leaking, they do not browse websites – they pick up the phone. And they call the first few roofers Google displays in its Local Services Ads. If a roofer is not answering, they are handing that lead and their ad spend straight to
