Plumbing & HVAC Campaign Launch Checklist

Prompt DesignLumo with a concise brief—e.g., "Winter furnace check‑up flyer, blue palette, bold headline, space for QR code"—and generate three layered options in seconds. Open the .psd in DesignLumo, swap the brand fonts from your Brand Kit, adjust colors to match the client’s palette, and export PNGs for social and PDFs for print. Run a quick A/B test in Canva’s Content Planner to compare click‑through rates. Target a 2.5% CTR and a 10% lift over last year’s static images. This workflow eliminates template hunting and yields fully editable assets.

Create a master emergency flyer in DesignLumo: start with a bold red headline, add placeholders for service icons, and embed a dynamic phone number field. Use the Layer Lock feature to protect the headline while allowing field agents to edit the price block per region. Export a 5 × 7 in PDF with bleed for local print shops and a 1080 × 1080 px PNG for Facebook ads. Track cost‑per‑lead (CPL) and aim for ≤ $20; adjust the price block if CPL spikes. The editable template cuts production time from days to minutes.

In DesignLumo, design a double‑sided 4 × 6 in card: front shows a 5‑star graphic and a short testimonial, back contains a QR code generated via QRCode Monkey linking to the Google Business profile. Use the Text Replace tool to insert the homeowner’s name for personalization. Export a print‑ready CMYK PDF and a low‑res JPG for email signatures. Deploy via a Zapier workflow that triggers after a service completion, sending the card as a PDF attachment. Aim for a 30% increase in review volume within 30 days.

Upload the seasonal graphics from DesignLumo into Meta Business Suite. Set up a Lead Form that captures name, phone, and service interest. Enable Dynamic Creative to rotate three image variants and three headline copies. Use the split‑test dashboard to allocate $150 daily, aiming for a CPL ≤ $15 and a CTR ≥ 2%. Schedule the ads to start 48 hours before the first frost and pause after 10 days. Monitor frequency caps to avoid ad fatigue.

In Mailchimp, create a three‑step drip: (1) reminder email two weeks before service due, (2) follow‑up with a limited‑time discount, (3) last‑chance notice. Insert the email header designed in DesignLumo, ensuring brand colors and font consistency. Set send times at 10 am local time for maximum open rates. Target a 25% open rate and 5% click‑through; adjust subject lines based on A/B results. Use Mailchimp’s automation report to pause the sequence for customers who schedule a call, preventing oversaturation.

Log into Google Ads and navigate to the Local Services tab. Upload fresh 300 × 250 banner variations produced in DesignLumo, each featuring a different seasonal call‑to‑action. Set a weekly rotation schedule and enable automated performance bidding with a target CPA 10% lower than the previous month. Track impression share and aim for a 5% lift while keeping the cost‑per‑acquisition (CPA) under $80. Review the “Ad Strength” score weekly and replace any asset below 80%.

Standardize UTM tags using Google’s Campaign URL Builder: source=facebook|email|google, medium=cpc|email|organic, campaign=seasonal_maintenance_2024, content=variantA/B/C. Store the naming convention in a shared Google Sheet for team access. In GA4, create a custom dimension to capture “campaign_type” and build a funnel report that ties clicks to service contract conversions. Aim for attribution accuracy of >90% and use the data to reallocate budget toward the highest‑ROI source within two weeks.

Deploy Hotjar on the primary service page (e.g., furnace repair). Set up a heatmap for 1,000 sessions and enable scroll tracking. Identify dead zones where users stop scrolling and low‑click areas on the “Schedule Service” button. Export the findings and iterate the button’s placement and color in DesignLumo, then republish via WordPress. Target a 15% reduction in bounce rate and a 10% lift in click‑through to the booking form within a month.

Connect Google Ads, Meta Ads, Mailchimp, and CallRail (call‑tracking) as data sources in Data Studio. Build tiles for: total spend, leads, cost‑per‑lead, revenue per call, and contract renewal rate. Use calculated fields to derive CAC and ROAS. Schedule automatic email delivery to the sales manager every 1st of the month. Benchmark against the previous month and set a KPI to improve ROAS by 8% each cycle. The visual dashboard shortens insight latency from days to minutes.
