Fitz & Franson Show, Rochester, MN (2026)

Most home improvement companies don't have a lead problem.

They have a response problem.

In this episode, Fitz and Franson break down the growing speed-to-lead crisis happening across the home improvement industry and explain why companies spending $10,000–$50,000+ per month on marketing are still struggling to convert leads.

The reality?

41% of booked jobs happen after hours.

97% of homeowners go with the first company that responds.

And some companies are taking 14+ hours to call leads back.

If your sales team is complaining about lead quality, this episode might explain what's really happening.

Topics covered:

• Why speed-to-lead is crushing profitability
• The hidden cost of slow follow-up
• Why homeowners buy from your competitors first
• How multi-location operators lose revenue without realizing it
• The systems every growing company needs in place
• The 4-step framework to fix your response process this week

If you're spending money on marketing and not measuring response times, this episode is required listening.

Most marketing agencies know how to run ads. Very few understand how multi-location home improvement companies actually scale.

In this episode, Fitz and Franson break down why so many operators hit a growth ceiling even while lead volume increases.

They unpack:
• Why lead volume can hide operational dysfunction
• The real danger of fragmented vendors and disconnected reporting
• Why profitability often drops before owners realize there’s a problem
• The importance of speed-to-lead and follow-up consistency
• How marketing, sales, operations, recruiting, and fulfillment all connect at scale
• What operators should actually be measuring by location

If you run multiple locations, manage several sales reps, or feel like your marketing “looks good on paper” but growth still feels chaotic… this episode is for you.

Stop moving the goalposts on your team.

If your people never know what “winning” looks like, they stop trusting the system. And once they stop trusting the system, performance drops fast.

This episode is a wake-up call for leaders who want accountability without destroying confidence.

You can always tell the difference between a manager… and a leader.

Managers talk about tasks. Leaders build people.

Managers focus on control. Leaders create momentum.

Managers wait for results. Leaders drive them.

The companies actually growing right now?
They’re not just running jobs… They’re building teams that want to win.

👉 Stronger people
👉 Clear direction
👉 Consistent ex*****on

That’s how you stop chasing leads… and start creating real growth.

Here’s the shift most miss 👇
You don’t scale a business by doing more. You scale it by building people who can.

👉 Want to build a team that performs without you carrying everything?

What’s harder for you right now... finding people or leading them?

04/30/2026

Most people think leadership is a title.

That’s the problem.... Because titles don’t build teams… Titles don’t close deals... And titles definitely don’t grow companies.

Leadership is what you do when it’s on you.

When leads slow down… When your team looks to you for answers… When excuses would be easier… That’s where real leaders separate.

The businesses actually winning right now? They’re not just “managing” people…

They’re creating clarity, accountability, and action.
👉 They build better teams
👉 They drive real results
👉 They create consistent growth

Here’s the truth most people avoid 👇
If your business isn’t growing… It’s not a marketing problem first.
It’s a leadership problem.

What’s harder.... getting leads or leading people?

04/28/2026

Stop scrolling.

Seriously. This is the part most people skip 👇

Everyone wants more leads…But almost nobody is willing to do what actually gets them.

They keep:
• Waiting for better ads
• Hoping the market shifts
• Blaming “lead quality”

Meanwhile... The businesses winning right now are doing one thing: They’re showing up. Consistently.

Not polished. Not perfect. Just visible.

Here’s the shift....
👉 Attention gets you seen
👉 Action gets you PAID

If you’re not putting yourself out there… You’re invisible. And invisible doesn’t sell.

👉 Ready to turn attention into actual revenue?

Agree or disagree? 👇
Are you posting consistently... or still waiting for the “perfect” plan?

04/28/2026

You don’t have a lead problem…You have a visibility problem.

Everyone’s sitting around saying:
“Leads are too expensive.”
“Ads don’t work anymore.”

Meanwhile.... Other companies are going LIVE from job sites…
Answering real questions… And getting inbound leads for free.

No ad spend. No gimmicks. Just attention + trust.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth 👇
If people don’t know you… They can’t buy from you.

And right now, attention is easier to get than ever. Most people just aren’t willing to press record.
