Your complete playbook for filling your own pipeline — every script, every email, every SMS. Built for Paul Meyers. Ready to use today.
How Paul stands apart from every other marketing agency a contractor has ever been burned by.
Core Positioning Statement: "I'm not a marketing agency. I build AI employees for contractors — systems that answer your phone, follow up with every lead, and book jobs automatically. You get more from the leads you're already getting, without spending more on ads."
Every contractor has a story about paying some marketing agency $2,000/month and getting nothing. That's Paul's opening. He's not that guy.
What Paul has that no agency can replicate:
One-liner for BNI, networking, and cold calls: "I help contractors stop losing the leads they're already getting — using AI employees that answer calls, follow up automatically, and book jobs 24/7."
Six channels Paul should work, ranked by expected ROI given his situation.
Paul already has 7 years of trust built in this room. This is his highest ROI channel — he just needs to use it more deliberately.
Paul's ICA is NOT on LinkedIn. They're on Facebook — personal page, local groups, community boards.
LinkedIn is better for referral partners (accountants, coaches, consultants who serve contractors) than for contractors themselves. But it's running automatically — keep it going.
Direct outreach to contractors in Northern Ontario and beyond. Requires a list-building step but can be systematized.
The highest-leverage play. One accountant who serves 30 contractors could send Paul 5 clients/year.
Paul is a natural in a room. This is underused. One lunch-and-learn at a Chamber event could produce 3 clients.
5 emails over 14 days. Written in Paul's voice — direct, warm, no jargon. Every email has one job: get a reply or get the audit booked.
Before you send: Personalize [FIRST NAME], [COMPANY], and [CITY]. Add a specific detail about their business when possible (e.g., "I noticed your Google Business profile has 8 reviews" or "I tried calling your number — went to voicemail"). The more specific, the higher the open rate.
3 messages over 7 days. Use after email gets no response, or as a standalone sequence for contractors you can't find email for. Keep it SHORT — SMS is scanned, not read.
SMS rule: Under 160 characters if possible. Never pitch in the first message. Always end with a question. Never send before 8am or after 7pm.
After Dripify sends the connection request, these 3 messages go out manually (or via Dripify sequence). Never pitch in the first message.
The complete AI Lead Audit script, proposal walkthrough, and objection handling.
Mindset going in: Paul is not a salesperson in this call. He's a doctor doing a diagnosis. Be genuinely curious. Ask real questions. The contractor will sell themselves when they articulate the problem out loud.
Build a human connection before going to business. Reference something real about them.
Uncover how leads come in and what happens to them. The gaps reveal themselves.
Reflect their answers back as a problem. Be specific. Make the gap feel real.
Only present the Pillars that apply to their specific gaps. Don't dump everything on them.
Paul is not a hard closer. The close is natural — it's asking if they want to move forward.
Principle: Never argue. Always validate. "That makes sense — here's how I think about it..." is always the opener.
The structure Paul uses for every client proposal. Personalize the Pillars section and investment — keep everything else consistent.
Proposal delivery rule: Always walk the proposal through on a call — never just email a PDF and wait. The walk-through is where objections surface and trust is built. Book the proposal call before you send anything.
| Timeframe | What Gets Done | What Client Does |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Onboarding, access, GHL setup, Voice AI configuration, phone number porting | Provide logins, existing contact list, business info |
| Week 2 | Voice AI live, Conversational AI automations, Reviews AI configured | Review and approve AI scripts/conversation flows |
| Week 3 | Website built or updated, Database Reactivation campaign prepared | Review website draft, approve content |
| Week 4 | Full system live, Database Reactivation launched, training call | Training call, launch day |
| Month 2-3 | Optimization, tweaks based on real data, monthly check-in | Share feedback, send client testimonial |
Three tiers. One conversation. Anchor high, let them choose down — but the middle package is the goal.
Best for: contractors just starting out, or those who want to test before committing to the full system
Best for: established contractors ready to stop losing leads and build a real system
Best for: contractors who want to own their local market online within 12 months
+ ad spend (client pays directly). Includes creative, targeting, reporting.
One-time. 90 pieces of content — posts, stories, emails, video scripts.
Extra conversational AI employees — for different services, locations, or lead types.
One-time campaign. We write it, run it, and report on results.
Pricing confidence script: "The monthly is [price]. Most of my clients cover that with one extra job from the system — and they typically see 3-5 extra jobs in the first month. So the question isn't really whether you can afford it — it's whether you can afford to keep losing leads to a competitor who already has this in place."

| Metric | Target | How to Get There |
|---|---|---|
| Cold emails/week | 50 | 10 contacts/day Mon-Fri from Google Maps list |
| Audit calls/week | 3-5 | Email sequence converts ~5-10%, BNI referrals, LinkedIn DMs |
| Audit-to-proposal rate | 70% | If the audit reveals a gap (it always does), send a proposal |
| Proposal close rate | 40-50% | Audit builds trust. Personalized proposals close. Follow up 5+ times. |
| New clients/month | 3-5 | At these conversion rates, 50 emails → ~3 audits → 2 proposals → 1 client |
| MRR target (90 days) | $10,000 | 10 Growth clients × $497 = $4,970 + 2 Domination × $997 = $1,994 + setup fees |
