Catch the demand that already exists.
- 1Local Services Ads with a 24/7 answer"AC not cooling" in Miami in August is the highest-intent search in home services. LSA puts you at the top for $50–$120 per call, but only if the phone is answered. Route after-hours calls to a live person or an answering service; an unanswered LSA call is a paid lead handed to the next company.
- 2Split emergency repair and change-out into separate campaignsA $400 capacitor call and a $9,000 system replacement are different buyers. Separate ad groups, separate landing pages, separate budgets. The repair campaign runs all summer; the replacement campaign runs financing offers year-round.
- 3Maintenance-plan ads in the shoulder monthsOctober to February is when Miami-Dade HVAC companies go quiet. A $149 tune-up membership ad on Meta fills the calendar, and every member is a change-out lead in two summers. Cheapest customer you'll ever acquire.
- 4Film the change-out, not the vanA crane lift onto a Kendall roof, the old rusted condenser next to the new one, the thermostat reading 74 an hour later. One filming day a month produces a quarter of Meta ads and reels. Real footage beats stock and AI creative 10–15× on cost per lead in our tests.
- 5Build the Google Business Profile to 50+ reviewsEvery AC service listed, photos weekly, Q&A answered, a review link texted after every job. The profile earns free map-pack calls and lowers your LSA cost per lead, because Google scores the same signals. Here's the math.
Build the trust that closes it.
- 6An instant "new AC cost" estimator on the siteHome size, SEER tier, one-stage or variable, and a range in exchange for a phone number. It qualifies budget before the sales visit and is the highest-converting page on most HVAC sites we build. See websites and estimators.
- 7Financing in the headline"New AC from $129/month" outperforms "Free estimate" every time in Miami. Put the monthly number in the ad, the landing page, and the estimator result. Half your replacement buyers are deciding whether, not whom.
- 8Missed-call text-backTechs can't answer on a roof. An automatic text in under 30 seconds ("Running a service call, what's going on with the unit?") recovers 20–40% of missed calls. Setup in our missed-call guide.
- 9Spanish campaigns as their own account structureMiami-Dade is a Spanish-first market. "Aire acondicionado cerca de mí" and "reparación de aire Miami" cost a fraction of the English click. Our own keyword research put Spanish HVAC leads near $48 against $167 in English. A Spanish landing page and a Spanish-speaking dispatcher are the whole trick.
- 10Retarget quote requests for 21 daysMost change-out buyers collect two or three quotes. A small retargeting budget keeps your filmed install in front of them on Meta and YouTube until they sign. Lowest cost per lead in the account because they already asked.
Compound it.
- 11Publish a "Miami AC replacement cost" pageTon sizes, SEER tiers, permit fees in Miami-Dade, what a 20-year-old system costs to keep running. Homeowners search it, AI assistants quote it, and it works for years. One honest page beats fifty generic blog posts.
- 12Property manager and HOA outreachCoral Gables, Kendall, Doral, Hialeah, Pinecrest, Cutler Bay, Miami Lakes, and Homestead are full of HOA communities and rental portfolios that need a go-to HVAC vendor. One filmed maintenance-plan pitch, sent to 50 property managers, produces recurring commercial work no ad can buy.
- 13Review velocity from the tech's phoneTen fresh reviews a month move the map pack more than 300 stale ones. The review link goes out as a text from the tech while the homeowner is enjoying cold air. Reviews also cut your LSA cost per lead.
- 14Google Search on "near me" plus brand-defense"AC repair near me" and your own company name. Competitors bid on your brand in Miami; a $5/day brand campaign keeps the calls you already earned. Full setup in Google Ads for HVAC.
- 15Manage to cost per booked jobRecord every call, tag the channel on every signed ticket, and move budget weekly. The HVAC benchmark is $250–$600 per booked job at a 1 in 5 close. Run your own numbers in the ROI planner.
