The ROI of Marketing for scaffolders in Oldham
Every pound you spend on marketing for your scaffolding contractor business in Oldham should generate measurable return. Here is how we make that happen.
The ROI calculation for marketing is straightforward for scaffolders: if a lead costs £20-£60 and the average job is worth £400-£3,000, you need a reasonable close rate for the numbers to work well. Most scaffolders we work with close 30-60% of qualified enquiries.
The challenge is the word "qualified." A campaign that generates 50 leads a month where 40 are irrelevant is worse than one generating 15 leads where 12 convert. In Oldham, where the market is accessible, precision targeting is the difference between campaigns that generate real return and those that simply consume budget.
