Most owners are marketing in the dark. Money goes out, leads come in, and no one can show you what's actually working. Lightwell turns the lights on.

You built a great business. Your marketing shouldn't keep you in the dark.

Money goes out. Answers don't come back.

You're spending every month, but no one can show you which dollars turn into booked revenue.

You're making big calls on a hunch.

Agencies send reports. Vendors promise results. You're still wondering if any of it is working.

You deserve to know what's working.

Growing a business is hard enough. Your marketing should give you clarity, not more questions.

Time to shine a light on your numbers

Most owners can't answer these four questions.

You're not alone. Most businesses spend on marketing every month without knowing what a new customer actually costs. I'll help you find these numbers, then build the systems that keep them in front of you.

$?
CPL

Cost per lead

What does each call, form or chat really cost you?

$?
Cost per booked call

Cost per appointment

What does it cost to turn a lead into a booked call or appointment?

$?
CAC

Customer acquisition cost

What does it take to win one new paying customer?

$?
ROI

Return on marketing

How much revenue comes back for every marketing dollar you spend?

Don't know yours? That's exactly where we start.

How it works

From guessing to a plan you can see.

Most businesses don't need more leads. They need fewer leaks. We trace every dollar from spend to customer, find where growth is slipping away, and close the gaps first.

1. Book a free Spotlight Session

In 45 minutes we look at your channels, booking process and spend. You leave knowing your three biggest gaps.

2. Get your Lightwell plan

A full audit and a prioritized 12-month roadmap, so you know exactly where every dollar should go.

3. Grow with a guide

I lead the plan, bring in the right agencies, vendors and team members to carry it out, and hold everyone to the numbers that matter.

Built for owners who are ready to grow

One location or fifty, if you want a clear plan and a senior guide to lead it, you're in the right place.

Small businesses

Owners who've outgrown doing marketing themselves but aren't ready for a full-time marketing hire.

Local service companies

Home services, trades and local providers who want a full schedule and every lead followed up.

Franchise & multi-location brands

Franchisors and growing brands balancing brand marketing, local marketing and new locations.

Work with me directly

I know what it's like to own growth with too many vendors and too little clarity.

I've sat in the CMO seat at a national, multi-brand home services franchise platform, juggling brand, local marketing, franchise development and a stack of vendors. I know how easy it is to lose sight of what's working, whether you run one office or fifty. That's why I started Lightwell: to bring that clarity to owners like you.

In 20+ years I've done nearly every job on a marketing team before leading one, from writing and design to video, photography and web development. So I can direct your agency, designers and freelancers, and I can tell when the work is off track.

What you get that most consultants can't give you
  • A CMO, not another agency. I don't run your ads or shoot your videos. I build the strategy, then bring in the right agencies, vendors and team members from my network, and keep them on plan.
  • Measured by profit, not just leads. Cost per lead is only the start. I track what drives profit, like booked jobs, close rates, revenue and margin, and help you build the systems that connect your marketing to revenue.
  • A plan built from launches, not theory. I've opened new locations from day one: territory, budget and a 12-month ramp.
  • One office or fifty. I've run brand-level and local marketing at the same time, so your plan scales as you grow.
Without a clear plan

Growth stalls in the dark.

  • Ad spend rises while results stay flat
  • Leads you paid for go unanswered
  • Growth plans stall without the demand to support them
  • Every guess costs money
