PAID ADVERTISING REVIEW
Executive Summary:
JDI Construction's paid advertising efforts are critically underperforming with a score of 15/100 (Industry benchmark: 65).

Strategic implementation of sustained multiplatform advertising campaigns can generate immediate leads worth $200K-$400K annually while SEO builds long-term visibility.
Current Paid Advertising Performance
Performance Scorecard
Critical Issues Identified
  • Inconsistent Google Ads Strategy: Short burst campaigns prevent momentum building and audience optimization
  • Facebook Advertising Blockage: Terms of Service violation eliminates access to Meta's advertising platform
  • Platform Limitation: Reliance on Google Ads only, missing multi-channel lead generation
  • Local Community Advertising Gap: No presence on Nextdoor, local community boards, or geographicspecific platforms
  • Lead Attribution Challenges: Lack of proper tracking integration with SyncShepherd CRM system
Strategic Opportunity: Paid Advertising Bridge Strategy

Construction Industry Advertising Advantages
  • High-Value Lead Justification: $5,000-$15,000 customer lifetime value supports aggressive cost-peracquisition strategies
