Insulation

The trade we know best, because it is ours.

Insulation and home performance is where Fullboard started. People do not search for it the way they search for a dead furnace, so the marketing has to create demand around comfort, energy bills, and the tax credit, not just wait to catch it.

[01] The trade

Nobody Googles "I need insulation" at 2am. That changes how you market it.

Insulation is a different animal from the emergency trades. A furnace dies and the search is obvious. A drafty house and a high heating bill do not send anyone running to Google the same way. The demand is real but quieter, driven by comfort, energy costs, cold-climate winters, and the federal tax credit, and most of it has to be created and educated, not just caught at the bottom of the funnel.

That is the work we know firsthand, because it is the trade our own shop runs. We build the content and the pages around the reasons people actually insulate (lower bills, a warmer house, the 25C credit), time the push to the fall and year-end when intent peaks, and rank for the searches that do happen. Real people set the strategy. AI-powered workflows handle the production so a modest plan covers a lot of ground.

What we run for insulation

Demand generation for a trade where the buyer has to be educated, timed to the seasons when they are ready.

01

Comfort and savings content

Pages and content built around why people actually insulate (lower energy bills, a warmer house, fewer drafts), not just the handful who already went looking for it.

02

Tax-credit and rebate angle

The 25C federal tax credit and local rebates put front and center, the financial nudge that turns "someday" into a booked assessment, timed to year-end.

03

Seasonal timing

The heavy push lands in the fall (September through November) when the first cold hits and people feel the draft and the bill, with the tax-credit season right behind it.

04

Educational pages that rank

Pages on attic insulation, air sealing, savings, rebates, and cold-climate comfort that catch the searches that do happen and build the authority Google rewards.

05

Google Business Profile + reviews

A complete, active profile and steady real reviews, so you show up and look credible when someone finally does search your area.

06

Tracking that counts leads

Every call and form tied back to the page that produced it, the exact setup that took our own shop from guessing to knowing.

[02] How we run it

Create the demand, then catch it.

Because the searches are fewer, insulation marketing lives or dies on creating demand and timing it. We lead with the reasons people act (the bill, the comfort, the credit), put it in front of the right homeowners ahead of the fall, and rank for the bottom-of-funnel searches that do happen so nothing leaks. It is the playbook we ran on our own company.

And we measure it on booked assessments and jobs, not clicks. This is the trade where we learned that discipline the hard way: broken tracking hid a dying pipeline for six months. Your dashboard shows every lead as it lands, tied to the page that produced it, and you are month to month from day one.

From 10 to 58 qualified leads a month.

This is our own shop, a home-performance and insulation company. An agency ran the marketing with the tracking broken and the leads dried up. We took it back in-house, fixed the tracking, and rebuilt it. Same market, same shop.

[03] Is it a fit

Who this is for.

A fit if

  • Your busy season is the fall and you want a fuller pipeline going into it
  • You are not capturing the homeowners searching on the tax credit and rebates
  • You do great home-performance work but few people search "insulation" directly
  • You want marketing run by people who actually know this trade

Probably not if

  • You want July to look like October. It will not. The demand is seasonal and we plan around that.
  • You only want people already searching "insulation." There are not enough of them to fill a schedule.
  • You do not sell an assessment first. Almost every lead here books one before a job exists.

[04] What we run

Where the lift comes from in insulation.

Get Found builds the site and the foundation; Full Board adds the weekly profile work and the monthly content the education game runs on. For insulation, the lift comes from content and ranking first, then capture. See what each plan runs on the pricing page.

[05] FAQ

Straight answers.

Why is insulation marketing different from HVAC or roofing?

Awareness. A dead furnace creates an obvious search; a drafty house and a high bill do not, so a lot of the demand has to be created and educated rather than just captured. That means more content, better timing, and a longer view than a pure emergency trade.

Do you handle the 25C tax credit and rebate angle?

Yes, and it is one of the strongest levers in the trade. The federal credit and local rebates are the financial nudge that turns interest into a booked assessment, so we put them front and center and time the push to year-end.

Is insulation really your trade?

Yes. Fullboard grew out of fixing the marketing for the home-performance and insulation company our founder owns and operates. The 10-to-58-leads case study is that shop. We are not guessing at this one.

How fast did your own numbers move?

Qualified leads went from 10 to 58 a month over about six months, after we fixed the tracking and took the marketing in-house. It compounded month over month, not overnight. The full story is in the case study.
