Electrical Business Health Calculator - ROI & Lead Gen Analysis
Most electrical contractors waste 30-40% of their lead generation budget on unprofitable channels.
This calculator reveals your true cost per customer, identifies which marketing channels are actually profitable, and shows you exactly where to focus your budget. For electrical contractors, understanding your lead-to-profit pipeline is the difference between growing sustainably and burning cash on leads that never convert to profit.
Enter your monthly lead generation data, close rates, and job values. The calculator will reveal your true customer acquisition cost, identify profit leaks, and show you specific improvements that could add $2,000-5,000 monthly profit.

Methodology & Assumptions
This calculator uses a comprehensive approach that goes beyond simple cost-per-lead metrics. It factors in the complete customer journey including immediate job profit, repeat business probability, and referral chain value. The response time factor adjusts close rates based on industry data showing leads contacted within 5 minutes convert at 50% higher rates. Seasonal adjustments account for the electrical industry's peak demand periods.
Assumptions:
- Repeat customers generate 50% of their initial job value within 2 years
- Referrals close at 70% higher rates and generate 30% of initial customer value
- Response time significantly impacts close rates (5min response = 100% baseline, 1+ day = 30% of baseline)
- Profit margins remain consistent across job sizes
Limitations:
- Does not account for geographic market variations
- Assumes consistent lead quality across all sources
- Does not factor in business growth capacity constraints
How the Calculation Works
Calculates true monthly profit from lead generation by factoring in immediate job profit, repeat business value, and referral chain value, then adjusts for response time and seasonal factors
monthlyLeads = Total leads generated per month
closeRate = Percentage of leads that convert to jobs
avgJobValue = Average revenue per completed job
profitMargin = Net profit margin after all expenses
monthlyLeadSpend = Total monthly lead generation expenses
repeatBusinessRate = Percentage of customers who become repeat clients
referralRate = Percentage of customers who provide referrals
