Every missed booking is a customer gained by your competition.
When homeowners search for services, they’re often ready to buy now. But too many franchises lose these ready-to-book customers because the path to scheduling a job is slow, inconvenient, or unclear.
Do Any of These Problems Sound Familiar?
- Are underperforming locations blaming low lead flow, when the real issue is conversion friction?
- Do customers have a clunky self-service experience booking jobs with your franchisees, especially after hours?
- Do you lack clear booking data to identify lost opportunities and understand what customers are looking for?
If you’re nodding your head, you’re not alone. This is the reality for most home service franchises—and it’s costing millions in lost revenue system-wide.
The Domino Effect of a Broken Booking Process
- Customer clicks competitor’s profile — because the
y can book instantly, any time of day. - Franchisee loses the job — even if they rank higher insearch results, the easier booking option wins.
- Lack of trust — from franchisees expecting corporate to help bring them more customers.
- Brand loses market share — as competitors consistently win fast-moving, high-value jobs, and the few customers who try to self-book encounter a clunky experience that pushes them away.
