Ask Vincent: marketplaces rent you an introduction, not a customer. The three unpaid channels that compound, and why the third decides the other two.

Ask Vincent: three unpaid channels actually work for roofers, and all three die at the same door if the top of your website cannot answer a homeowner.

Ask Vincent: bought leads are a bridge, not a business. What a shared roofing lead really costs, and what to build so it becomes optional.
