Contractor Pro Tip: You can’t fix what you don’t measure.
If you want consistent growth, you have to take control of your numbers. Track your weekly KPIs, cost per lead, lead-to-appointment rate, close rate, and average ticket to see what area needs the most attention. What gets measured gets managed, and what gets managed gets profitable.
The contractors dominating their markets aren’t the ones working harder, they’re the ones making decisions from data.
Meet the Voices Behind The Contractors’ Edge
I’m Mike Stiers, co-founder and president of Greenbaum Stiers Strategic Marketing Group. I cut my teeth running marketing for The Basement Doctor, then built an agency so contractors wouldn’t have to guess their way through growth. I’m obsessed with clean math and real-world execution: leads that turn into booked appointments, appointments that run, and sales that stick. My why is simple. When a home service company gets its brand, marketing, call center, sales force, and installers working in sync, owners get their time back, teams get stability, and homeowners get problems solved the right way.
Contractor’s Edge matters to me because our industry needs straight talk and field-tested playbooks, not hype. This show is where we translate KPIs into decisions, share what actually works across markets, and bring operators, not theorists, to the mic. If a listener can tighten speed-to-lead today, raise close rate next week, and plan budgets with confidence for next year, we did our job. This podcast is about turning good companies into predictable machines.

I’m Anthony Brown, co-host of The Contractor’s Edge and Senior Business Growth Strategist at Greenbaum Stiers Strategic Marketing Group. This show means a lot to me because it gives me a chance to reach beyond the clients I work with every day and help more contractors take control of their growth. I’ve seen too many great operators spin their wheels, not because they can’t sell or don’t know their trade, but because no one ever taught them how to build a marketing system that actually works. That’s what this podcast is about. It’s built for the people who get their hands dirty and don’t have time for guesswork.
We talk about what really moves the needle, like getting your phone ringing with the right kind of leads, closing more jobs, and turning your marketing from a guessing game into a growth engine. My goal is simple: to help contractors win with clarity, confidence, and a plan that finally makes sense. If it helps you run tighter appointments, close more jobs, or finally take control of your marketing, then we’ve done our job.
