Joseph Gomez Founder, Own The Bid 2 yrs marketing operator-side · LA ADU + ground-up GC

I'm Joseph. For two years I ran the full marketing stack (site, Meta ads, CRM, automations) inside an LA residential GC in the ADU and ground-up space, and watched good leads die before anyone called them back. Before that I worked drainage and concrete on Chris Stone's crew at Southern Boys in Granada Hills. Google him.

So I built the one thing a lead site won't sell you: a lead system that calls leads back fast and that you own outright. You deal with me, not an account manager. I take three new contractors a month. That's the cap, not a tactic. The whole build is written in plain English at the system, so you can read exactly what you are buying.

You show up.
We do the rest.

Here is exactly what we build you and how booked jobs start landing on your calendar. No tech talk, no fine print. Your only job: walk into the appointment and close it on the porch like you always have.

The Lead MachineFinds you work and keeps every lead warm for months, not days.
The Callback SystemAn AI assistant calls every new lead back in 5 minutes, weeds out the tire-kickers, and books the visit on your calendar.

Tap a product to see just its part. Or read it top to bottom.

1 · Homeowners see you first

Lead Machine

We put you in front of people in your area who want work done right now, on Facebook and Google, where they are already looking.

You get: Facebook & Google ads, set up and run for you.

2 · A website that actually gets you jobs

Lead Machine

Not a pretty brochure nobody calls. A real website built to turn lookers into phone calls, and built so Google trusts you and shows you higher.

You get: Your own pro website, with backlinks, plus your Google listing set up.

3 · Every lead gets a call back in 5 minutes

Callback System

The second someone asks for a quote, an AI assistant calls them back in your business's name, even while you are up a ladder. It says right away that it is an assistant, then keeps them talking while they are still hot. No more leads going cold because you could not grab the phone.

You get: An AI assistant that calls every new lead back within 5 minutes, day or night.

4 · It weeds out the tire-kickers

Callback System

On that call it asks the right questions, budget, timeline, whether they are the one making the decision, so the only visits that hit your calendar are real buyers worth the drive.

You get: Every lead qualified before it ever lands on your calendar.

5 · It books the visit for you

Callback System

It drops the appointment straight onto your calendar and texts them a confirmation, then reminders so they are home when you pull up. You skip the phone tag and just show up. It never quotes a price or closes the deal, that is your job on the porch.

You get: Booked site visits on your calendar, plus a text summary of every call.

6 · The maybes don't slip away

Lead Machine

Not ready yet? Big remodels take months to decide. We keep following up with them for you, automatically, for about two and a half months, so you stop losing slow deals to whoever kept calling.

You get: Hands-off follow-up that works your leads for weeks, so nothing falls through the cracks.

7 · You win the job

The payoff

You close the deal on the porch like you always have. Tap one button and it lands on your scoreboard so you can see the money adding up.

8 · Every job makes the next one

Lead Machine

After you finish, we ask the customer for a 5-star review and ask who else they know. Reviews bring in more leads. Referrals close easy.

You get: Automatic review requests and referral asks after every job.

9 · Old leads turned back into money

Lead Machine

The leads that went cold months ago are not dead. We wake them back up with an offer. Some of the easiest jobs you will ever land.

You get: Win-back offers sent to your old leads, automatically.

What you own

Your Lead System

Built and run for you

Ad spend + flat fee

No per-job cost. Win 1 or 20.

You own the accounts. The cost doesn't climb with every job.

  1. Estimates, not published per-job figures. Ads-only assumes about $91 per lead for home services (LocaliQ 2025) across the leads it takes to win a job. Lead-site assumes $15 to $150 per shared lead. Your own system is ad spend plus a flat fee, no per-job fee.

The job you never hear about

Every inquiry caught and booked.

Most jobs don't die on price. They die in the gap between the call and the callback.

Right now

  • You're on the job. The phone rings in the truck and goes to voicemail.
  • She already called the next three contractors. One of them picked up.
  • Your estimate has been sitting in her inbox for a week, going cold.
  • By Friday you can't remember who you forgot to call back.

Every one of those was a booked bid you never saw.

With the machine

  • Every call and form captured the second it lands.
  • Answered in your name in under 5 minutes, before they reach the next guy.
  • Qualified, job details taken, the estimate chased before it goes cold.
  • The appointment booked straight onto your calendar.

You show up to a calendar that's already full.

Stop chasing the work. It shows up already booked.

And it's built and live in 14 days.

The questions every contractor asks before booking.

What is the difference between the Lead Machine and the Callback System?

The Lead Machine is the lead generation system. Ads, site, CRM, calendar, email follow-up, push to your phone. It brings leads in. Ships in 14 days. $4,500 build + $997 a month.

The Callback System is the AI voice agent that calls those leads back inside 5 minutes. It says straight up that it is your AI, takes their name, number, email, and what they need, and texts it to you so you call back warm. You can also have it ask your qualifying questions, book the visit on your calendar, and record the call with consent, turned on to fit how you run your business. It never pretends to be you, never quotes price, and never closes. It also handles A2P 10DLC text-message compliance so your texts get through. $1,500 setup + $497 a month.

Most contractors buy both as the Bundle. Some buy just the Callback if their leads come from referrals or word of mouth.

Can I buy just one of them?

Yes. The Callback System works standalone if you already have leads coming in from referrals or another source and need the response infrastructure. The Lead Machine works standalone if you have a fast manual callback process and just need the lead system. But the Lead Machine without the Callback puts the 5-minute response on you personally, every time. Once you are on a roof or under a sink, that 5-minute window is the first thing that slips, and a slipped callback is where a paid lead dies.

What is A2P 10DLC and why do you handle it?

A2P 10DLC is the carrier registration that lets your business send text messages to consumers from a regular phone number. Without it, every text gets blocked at the carrier level. The registration takes 2 to 8 weeks and most contractors do not know it exists until their first text blast fails.

We file the registration as your authorized agent. You stay the legal Brand under your EIN. Texting turns on once the carrier approves your registration, usually inside a few weeks. We file it the day you sign so the clock starts as early as possible.

Does this work for my trade?

Yes, if you do high-ticket residential general-contractor work: remodels, ADUs, ground-up homes, additions, kitchen and bath. The lead system runs on paid ads and instant lead response, and that works the same across all of it. If your average job is under $5,000 the math does not clear, and we will tell you that straight.

Can I really cancel, or am I trapped?

The reason to stay is the system working, not a contract holding you. Everything is built in your name, so fire us and you keep all of it. If you could not, we would be a middleman. You can cancel in any month with no long-term contract; the ads pause until you or your new operator restart them. We do not sell "cancel anytime." We sell a system that earns its keep, and the cancel option is there only in case it does not.

What does the monthly operator fee cover?

A paid lead system is not a post that runs itself. The ads wear out, the costs drift up, and the system needs a hand on it. The Lead Machine monthly ($997) buys new ads every few weeks, weekly lead quality review, follow-up tuning, the auto-email reply maintained, and a Google review request fired after every job you mark complete. The Callback System monthly ($497) covers the AI agent runtime, 360 voice minutes, SMS to homeowners, a written summary of every call to your CRM (full transcript when recording is on), optional qualifying and calendar booking tuned to your business, and ongoing tuning of the call script.

Why is there a $3,000-a-month minimum ad spend?

It is a platform limit, not a sales gate. The Meta ad platform needs about 50 lead events per ad set per week to get out of its learning phase. At Los Angeles contractor cost-per-lead, $3,000 per month is the floor where that signal is reliable. Below it, the platform struggles to find your buyers and the leads come in slow and unpredictable, and that is not a problem a rebuild can fix.

You can run the system on less than $3,000 per month, and you can scale up to $4,500 or $6,000 once the first jobs land and you want more volume. The minimum exists so the rebuild guarantee is honest. The guarantee counts 45 days of qualified ad spend at the $3,000 floor. Below $3,000, the guarantee does not apply.

How fast do the leads start?

The build takes 14 days. Leads start coming in once the lead system is live. A paid lead system needs time to settle as the ads exit the Meta learning phase and find their audience. That is the same reason the rebuild guarantee clock starts at fully live and runs 45 days, not from the day you sign. We do not promise a lead count or a date, and anyone who does is guessing.

How does the rebuild guarantee work?

The guarantee clock starts when the system is fully live, not when you sign. Fully live means three things are in place: your Meta ads are out of the learning phase, your A2P 10DLC text registration is approved, and the Callback System is running. From that point, the window is 45 days of qualified ad spend at the $3,000-a-month floor. If your A2P approval is still pending, the clock pauses until it clears, because you cannot fairly judge a lead system that cannot text yet.

If the lead system is not bringing qualified leads by the end of that window, we rebuild it free. The rebuild is a focused fix to the live system: new ads, a new audience target, and a tightened lead flow and follow-up. It is not a rewrite of the site or the CRM, because those are working pieces, and a rewrite is not what a slow lead system needs.

This is a rebuild, not a cash refund. We keep working for free until the system performs, rather than handing money back and walking away. There is one rebuild, not unlimited rebuilds. A qualified lead is a real homeowner in your service area, asking about your trade, not a junk submission. The full definition and the conditions are written into the signed service agreement.

Why only one rebuild?

A paid lead system is a tuning problem, and the data needed to tune it builds up over time. Each rebuild resets that data clock. Stacking rebuilds would keep the system in permanent re-tuning and never let it settle, which is worse for the client than letting the rebuilt system mature.

After the rebuild, the standard month-to-month service continues. We keep iterating on the live system as part of the monthly work. The cap is on rebuilds, not on improvement.
