Enter five numbers and see how your business stacks up against benchmark ranges from public ad, call, and consumer data. Each metric is scored needs-work, typical, or strong.

Overall Solid, with upside
50%
Typical

Booked jobs ÷ opportunity calls. ServiceTitan: typical ≈ 42%, strong ≈ 59%.

Calls that reach a live person. Invoca: ≈ 61% average; 85%+ is strong.

Typical

Paid-search cost per lead. WordStream Home & Home Improvement avg ≈ $91; under $60 is strong.

How to read this. Benchmarks are ranges, not verdicts — and a few (review velocity especially, and the lead-response threshold, which comes from general B2B research) are estimates rather than trades-specific primary data, so treat the bands as guidance. For the full context behind each number, see the Home Services Benchmarks breakdown.
