Methodology & Assumptions
This calculator applies sophisticated adjustments to basic metrics to reveal true performance. It adjusts close rates based on response time (leads contacted within 5 minutes close at 2x the rate of those contacted after 1 hour) and seasonal factors specific to concrete work. The lifetime value calculation includes referral multiplier effects, and ROI calculations account for the full customer acquisition and retention cycle.
Assumptions:
- Response time directly impacts close rates based on industry lead response studies
- Seasonal patterns for concrete work follow typical construction industry cycles
- Referral customers generate additional value through word-of-mouth multiplier effects
- Profit margins remain consistent across different job sizes and customer acquisition channels
Limitations:
- Does not account for varying lead quality from different sources
- Assumes linear scaling of results with increased ad spend
- Referral value calculations are estimates based on industry averages
How the Calculation Works
Calculates true ROI by adjusting close rates for response time and seasonality, then computing cost per customer, lifetime value ratio, and net profitability after accounting for referral multiplier effects
monthlyAdSpend = Total marketing investment per month
monthlyLeads = Raw lead volume from paid sources
closeRate = Base close rate before adjustments
avgJobValue = Average revenue per completed job
profitMargin = Net profit margin percentage
responseTime = Speed of lead response (affects close rate)
referralRate = Customer referral generation rate
seasonalFactor = Time of year adjustment for concrete work
