Most outdoor lighting installers leak leads at five specific points.

Here is the audit we run on every dealer in their first week.

01

The 19-hour callback gap

A $9K lead waits 19 hours for a callback. They already called the next dealer.

02

The October-only Meta calendar

Ads run September to December at 2x the CPMs. Dark January to August.

03

The forgotten GBP profile

No photos in 47 days. Rank 8 on Maps. Map pack is half your inbound.

04

The quote-then-silence pattern

One follow-up email, then 30 days of nothing. 22% close rate becomes 38% with 5 touches.

05

The generalist agency

They cannot tell an RGBW controller from an RGB one. They assume your install ticket is $200.

Built by an operator who spent a decade running the enterprise growth playbook, then went looking for where it wasn't getting used.

The decade.

10+ years scaling marketing for enterprise B2B software. The growth and ops playbook printed revenue at the top of the market.

The gap.

$1-3M home services operators missed half their calls and sent one follow-up email after a quote. The tools they needed cost too much. Then between 2023 and 2026, that cost collapsed.

The bet.

Grand Central Growth brings the playbook down to the operators it was always supposed to reach. Outdoor lighting first, because the unit economics are unambiguous and no specialist agency dominates the category yet.
