Operational framework
How It Actually Works
01
Group Selection
We don't join every group — we curate. Each group is evaluated for engagement quality, moderation rules, and homeowner density before a single post goes out.
Territory group identification within 20-mile radius
Inquiry volume mapping by trade category
Competitor audit per group
02
Community Posting
Two post types — reactive (responding to in-the-moment homeowner requests before anyone else) and proactive (brand-building storytelling, giveaways, local partnerships that earn shares and comments).
Authentic neighbor-style tone — never sounds like an ad
No phone numbers or links in captions (get flagged as spam)
Comment-driven engagement to boost algorithmic reach
03
Reputation Monitoring
24/7 group monitoring ensures you're in every relevant conversation. When a homeowner asks for your trade, we're in the thread before it fills with noise.
Real-time inquiry detection across all active groups
Rapid on-brand response within minutes
Private DM handoff to capture lead details
04
Lead Delivery
Every interested homeowner gets moved into a private conversation, their project details are captured, and a warm lead is texted to your phone within 15 minutes. You call a neighbor who already knows your name.
SMS lead delivery within 15 minutes of inquiry
Name, phone, and project details included
100% exclusive — never shared with a competitor
