Do Yard Signs Actually Work for Home Service Businesses?
In this episode of Owned and Operated, John Wilson is joined by Sam Preston, CEO of Service Scalers, to break down one of the simplest—and most debated—marketing channels in home services: yard signs.
Are they actually effective, or just cheap noise?
John and Sam dig into the real economics behind yard signs, including why they can be 10–100x cheaper per impression than billboards—but come with tradeoffs in reach and perceived credibility. They also explore real-world examples, including a company that scaled to millions in revenue largely using yard signs alone.
The conversation goes beyond theory and into execution: what makes a yard sign convert, where they work best, and the common mistakes that cause most operators to fail with them.
In this episode, we cover:
- The true cost vs. return of yard signs compared to billboards
- Why repetition in a neighborhood builds trust and drives calls
- Real examples of businesses scaling with yard signs
- The biggest mistakes operators make (and how to avoid them)
- What actually makes a yard sign convert
- When yard signs work best—and when they don’t
If you’re looking for low-cost ways to generate more local demand—or wondering if yard signs are worth testing—this episode gives you a practical, no-BS breakdown of how to think about them.

Today we're gonna be talking yard signs for home services businesses. Do they actually work? Yard signs are dramatically cheaper for impression than billboards, often by 10 to a hundred times. What the fuck? It's gotta be simple. You either have to go the branding route or the offer route, don't. Put 500 signs in one neighborhood. I think that if you're doing yard signs, you're probably gonna get complaints. I will hate it if you're getting negative reviews on your GVP. That would be bad. What other thoughts do you have on yard signs? Do it. Yay, nay. Um. Welcome back to Owned and Operated, a Top 200 Business and Entrepreneurship podcast. I'm your host, John Wilson, and during the day, I'm the CEO of Wilson Plumbing Heating and Cooling in Ohio and Indiana. For fun. I run a podcast where we talk about growing your home service company and we talk about strategies in marketing, how to scale accounting, how to hire people, and how to grow your business. So thanks for joining us today. Make sure you like and sub if this is content that you're into today, we're gonna be continuing our series of clicks to calls with my good friend Sam Preston, the CEO of service scalers. Welcome back to the show, Sam. Thanks for having me. I'm very excited. Uh, to hear that you are in the top, you say top 200, best B. Yeah, so we've actually been top, we've flirted with top 200 for the past, like probably year, but we would dip in and out of it. But for the past 90 days, four months or so, we're, we've been very consistent, like one 50 to 1 75, which. You know, five years into podcasting, I'm like, on one hand I'm like, yeah, you know what? I deserve this. Uh, on the other hand, it's like, that is kind of fucking awesome. That's kinda awesome. Awesome. I think another like, fun thing about the, about that top 200 podcast ranking is like when I look at that. I have like 10 friends that are also inside the top 200. So it's just, I don't know, it's, it's kind of funny, uh, who apparently I've surrounded myself with other podcasters. There you go. So that, that, that the circle of five people who's your closest friends? Yeah. Yeah. Uh, today's a funny one. I mean, well, so in clicks to calls, we've covered, you know, usually we do a little bit of a recap, so we've covered. God, all types of shit. We cover SEO and we covered pay-per-click and nextdoor ads. Bathroom. Bathroom store stalls. We did, we talked, yeah. Yeah, we did. Uh, we talked billboards, uh, we talked truck wraps. Maybe that was with Ethan. Um, but yeah, I, we've had a wide ranging, uh, wide ranging conversation. Today's kind of a funny one. Uh, today we're gonna be talking yard signs for home services businesses. Do they actually work? Yeah, like do they, do they do the thing that you want them to do? I'm really excited to hear what you think. Because I was doing research. I obviously have never put out a yard sign in my life. Yeah. So I was like, okay, this is the wonder, this work. And I found a Reddit part post, and this guy was very serious. He was very excited about his results. Uh, that did not feel sarcastic as he's writing this. Really. And he, every Friday would go poop. Yard signs, uh, and his community to, uh, drive traffic. And he hit $10,000 his first year in business, uh, with these yard signs. What, what, what's the business? It was a, um, I've got it right. Gutter cleaning. So, okay. So 10,000 bucks is probably a lot for, for gutter cleaning. I mean, um, what, every Friday, I dunno how many gutters that is out. Like 50 gutters. Maybe so may, maybe that's better than I think. I just think of that like, that's a lot of work to get $10,000 in one year. I agree. That is a lot of work to get $10,000 in one year. Uh, well, let's, yeah, let's talk about what side, what yard signs. Actually, that's really interesting. We have, I have a couple other like sort of examples, uh, that I'll give out here. So what is a yard sign? So a yard sign, like you've probably seen it, it is a sign in a yard. Hey, that's a good one we got there. Yeah, we, we got there. But, uh, so yeah, like either after a job's completed or there's companies similar to what Sam just described, where like they'll go out and smack a sign in a yard or at a street corner or whatever. Like, I have a spot in my neighborhood where, um. I, I go down the, there's like a back way outta my neighborhood, my neighborhood's like on a hill. So I go down the back way and it goes up against, uh, railroad tracks. And there's like, there's always three yard signs there. And honestly, I don't know why I've never put my yard sign there. Um, but there's always three, three yard signs there. Like, so a lot of times it's on public property, frankly. Uh. Yeah, so, so that's a yard sign. It usually has like a coupon or the business's name. Call me for your gutter cleaning or drain cleaning or painting or you know, I don't know, like whatever. Um, so that's a yard sign. It's kinda like a mini billboard. It's, I think, a, a good way to see it. And it's like, it's intimate 'cause it's in the neighborhood and you can sort of, you know, put it all out there. I will say unlike billboards though, the cost per view is probably significantly lower. Um, billboards expensive. Just like a sign that you're literally putting in the yard and just get people going through feels really cheap. Probably depends on how much the yard sign is. I mean, if it's a couple bucks, yeah, because I mean a billboard, like cost per view, like if you're paying like a thousand dollars a month for three months, that's 3000 bucks. If you put it on a highway, well, you probably wouldn't get that price on a highway, I guess. I mean, you probably get like thousands of views a day. So it's like a. What, what even is that like a penny of you? But I mean, maybe, maybe, uh, that's actually, that, that would be a good, that, that would be a good, uh, equation. I'm honestly, I'm fucking chat GBT that right now. What is my cost per impression? I'm interested, I am interested, what is my cost per impression on a yard sign? Verse a billboard. Let's see what chat has to say for us. Here's an uncomfortable truth. Growth breaks the moment that your team can't keep up. I know that finding good people fast is really hard, especially in home services positions like hr, accounting, marketing call center. It's hard to keep up Quick Staffers helps home service companies build reliable virtual teams that actually understand the trades. Quick staffers provides vetted remote staff who are pre-trained on ServiceTitan and use best in industry SOPs. These are team members ready to integrate into your business on day one.

I can't recommend quick staffers enough. They've helped us scale our business without a headache. Head over to quick staffers.com for more. Okay. You were apparently exactly right and was I, I am stupid. Yeah. Alright, so, alright. Yard signs are dramatically cheaper per impression than billboards dramatically. By the way, it wasn't like they're cheaper. They're like, Hey, Sam was, Sam wasn't just right. He was dramatically, right? Yeah. You know, after all this time, I gotta be right at least once. That's nice. That's gotta feel good often by 10 to a hundred times. What the fuck? Okay. But there's a But there's a con. I'm a big yard sign guy, so I know my nu numbers. Yeah, he knows his yard signs, but they have less reach and maybe most importantly, prestige. Yeah. Which I actually do think there's something to that where, um, like if you're, if you're on a billboard, and I actually think that's kind of why some home service contractors do it. It's like, you know, it's like if, if you're like a, a theater actor. You want to see your name on Broadway, right? If you're a plumber, you want to see your name on a billboard. It's like my name in Shining Lights. You know? This is it. This is it. This is it. Yeah. Yes. So I do think there's a prestige factor where, hey, if I, if you're on a billboard, like, you know, maybe I'm a real business, whereas if I'm on a yard sign, am I a real business or am I just like. No, not, not a real, you know, not, but or, or is. Is, is that the perception? Because obviously there are very large businesses that do a lot of yard signs, but I do wonder if that's like a part, you know, the prestige thing I think is kind of interesting. I think some, some businesses it makes a lot of sense and some it doesn't. We can go into there. Yeah. But I do feel like if you've already wrapped your truck, like you spent the 30 grand to get your truck wrapped, it feels like it's redundant and not, not worth it. I maybe, I mean, I think it depends on the business. Alright, let's do a little bit of economics here. 'cause now I'm still inside Chad Chip Petit. Alright, so the cost per sign is five to 15 bucks. That doesn't feel bad. You know, when I looked into this like 10 years ago, it was like $30. Uh, so I don't know if technology got better or what the lifespan is 30 to 90 days. Daily impressions, 20 to 200. So pick your street corner. Well, the estimated cost CPM, which I think that's impressions, right? Yeah. Impressions. Uh, 50 cents to five bucks per a thousand impressions. You can drop below a dollar. CPM. I don't know what my CPM is on like meta or, I don't know. Uh, I mean it just depends on. How good are you running ads? Alright, billboards. 1500 to 10,000 a month. That's a lot. Five to 20 bucks per thousand impressions. Okay. That's a lot. Okay. Um, yeah, that's interesting. I think the businesses that it would work well on, so we just got my driveway sealed and honestly it was a terrible experience. It was kind of funny, um, like if that part wasn't funny, but like it was not great. Yeah. Sounds hilarious. Yeah. Hilarious. I absolutely loved losing $3,500. Yeah. Uh, so we, so we had our driveway sealed and awful experience and like, I'm walking and they just like, it didn't look good. I had to have them come back out a second time. Um, 'cause I was like. My guy like this looks insane. And uh, so I'm walking around the neighborhood and like three or four other neighbors had also just gotten their driveway sealed. And in my head I was like, I wish they had a yard sign, because I would've called whoever the hell these guys because this looks good and my guys looks insane. And I got 'em off Thumbtack or something. I think that's a, the three people, that's good one. Yeah. Yeah, go ahead. Well, uh, like that, that's a good one. Uh, landscaping I think is another good, well, very like, Hey, we're in your neighborhood. Type of, you know, as outside aesthetics, windows Roofing maybe are good ones. Yeah. And landscapers for sure. 'cause every single time I have somebody in my neighborhood that's getting their, their, their yard landscapes and I get out of the idea that I have to Yeah. Do it myself to be a real man. Um, yes. I literally walk over them. I'm like, what is your card? Because I just wanna hire somebody that's already gonna be in my neighborhood. Oh, you're in my neighbor's house. Okay. When you get done with theirs, just come, come do my yard. Yeah. Yeah. I think that, that, I think that that makes sense. Um. So I, I think that's sort of like why they still work is, uh, I'm walking around my neighborhood. I like what my neighbor's driveway looks like. I'm jealous of it, you know? Mm-hmm. I've got that. Keeping up with the Jones thing going on. I'm like, well, your driveway looks great. My driveway has to look great, man, you're, otherwise I'm falling behind my life. Driveway sealed, bro. Yeah, I know, I know. Yeah. Um, so yeah, I, I think it, I. I think it still works. And if you haven't, if you're a new listener to the show, we have a couple examples, um, of it working. Uh, there's a guy we met and, and I still have to have him on the show, I think. I ha he, um, I think he reached out some point. I gotta get ahold of him, but he built his entire business. I, somewhere, I think like five or 6 million, which seems outrageous, but. Five or 6 million on the back of yard signs, like that was the only advertising they did was hundreds of yard signs a week. Just went out and built this five or $6 million business and they did that in three years, which is crazy. Like that's a, that's a, yeah, that, I mean, epic is a great word for it. That's absolutely epic. Um, so it still works and I think there's like a neighborhood repetition. So I'll give another example. We were, we're shopping for landscaping companies to like, you know, do our yard. And there's like, my neighborhood has like three landscapers and like, it's the same three landscapers. Everybody's got one of these three landscapers. Um, and I think I like, they don't use yard signs and that's not really the point of it. It's more like repetition inside a neighborhood. Builds trust in that neighborhood. Like we have some streets that we've worked in every single house on that street, no exaggeration. And uh, like we have neighborhoods that we, we cover 70% of that neighborhood. Uh, our core zip code. We've worked in like 50 to 60% of the homes over the past 50 years. It's kind of crazy. Um, but yeah, I think the more they see the truck, the more they see the name, the more they see the yard sign. In that neighborhood, it does build trust where, hey, well everybody uses Wilson, so I'll use Wilson. And I think a yard signs are kind of an extension of that. Yeah, no, I, I think that makes no sense. Um, I think that there are, it has its place though. It is not the, the main job, it's your side gig kind of thing. Uh, it is not the thing. I really wanna know what happened with that guy that. Like, is that all he's still doing? Like, I wanna know, I, I need a status update. Like, yeah. Have we added more marketing? Have we not? Is it still working? Like, 'cause that's fucking awesome. Like if he can get to $10 million purely on the back of yard signs that dude won life as far as I'm concerned. Like that's the coolest thing I've ever heard. His marketing spend was like 1%. It was just like, yeah, just yard science sucks out here doing it. Fuck yeah. Dude. This is awesome. Yeah. But I do want to know, I need a status update. Are we still only doing yard signs? Are we locked in on that? Have we added anything else? There's no right or wrong answer. I just need to know. Please let us know. Service, let us know. Might start offering a new service. Yard signs. Yard signs. Yeah. Sam's out there. M bam. Just placing 'em for you. Anything for the client, man? Yeah, anything, anything. Exactly. Um, alright, so what do you think, what do you think makes them effective? What do you think makes 'em work? It's gotta be simple. You have to have, um, I mean, it, you either have to go the branding route or the offer route, right? You, you see all those like, um, yard signs through, um, we buy houses, you know, call here. Yeah. Um, you know, that's works. Um, or you know, we buy cars or something like that. We'll buy your car. We buy common companies. Say again? I said, we buy plumbing companies, we buy yard signs all over everywhere. It could work. It could work. It could you, I mean, don't knock it till you've tried it. Yeah. Um, that's why I tell my son to eat while I'm trying to get him to eat his dinner, bro. Yeah, it's again, uh, you know, just eat it, bro. Um, but yeah, like I think you have to have either a very clear, short offer or. Uh, it's gotta be just a branding gig and I think you have a number. Don't get crazy. Yeah. You know, um, if you are putting, uh, a bunch of texts on there, no one's gonna read that. They're barely gonna read the Yeah. Your offer and your phone number. So you better, like, if you put anything else on there, I think you're in trouble. I think the offer that worked, uh, for a couple people, so we had Isaac Zimmerman on the show. Maybe in November. And uh, so he and I were both, we met that guy 'cause we did like an event in Isaac's shop and we met, we, that's where we met the guy from Michigan. So Isaac was like, dude, I'm gonna totally go do this. It's a hilarious story. You gotta, we gotta lengthy episode. But so he, he goes in and he like prints out 500 yard signs like the next day. And this is just like very Isaac. Like, he gets an idea, he's like nothing, no other idea has ever existed. Like he can only pursue that one thing. And um, so he like, he gives these 500 yard signs and he's like, you know what? Instead of like, instead of like sort of balancing out, I'm gonna do 500 yard signs in one neighborhood. And, and he was so excited about that idea. I remember him like texting me about it the night before. He's like, dude, this neighborhood's gonna bleed. Jay Bland. It's gonna be awesome. I'm like, all right. Like, we'll see how it goes, man. And like, and then he got like, so many calls. He got a sale the first day. He was like, yeah. And then immediately it was like, people were like, dude, you ruined our neighborhood. Remove these sides. So, so, you know. Yeah. Don't. Put 500 signs in one neighborhood, but it, but his offer was like $99 off a plumbing repair. And I think that, that, I think that that worked. And I believe that was the offer from that one company up in, uh. Up in Michigan too, I think so I talk to a lot of home service business owners, and if you are anything like the many shops that I know, you're getting flooded with AI pitches right now. Most of 'em sound great, but then they fall apart. The second they hit the real world. The one that I've kept coming back to is Avoca. What impressed me is they actually get how contracting businesses run, and it's not just some AI answering service. Avoca is going to handle inbound calls, outbound follow-ups, texts, web leads, dispatching, and even coaching your CSRs. Inside of one system that's built for growing home service companies. And if you're on ServiceTitan, this matters. Their integrations go deep so you're not duct taping five tools together and hoping nothing breaks during your busy season. I also like that they're honest about what AI should and shouldn't do when a call needs a human, they have a 24 7 live transfer built in, no drop balls, no awkward customer experience owners using Avoca are seeing hold times, basically disappear and booking rates jump. Sometimes by more than 30%. And that is real revenue, not just a vanity metric. If you're looking for the one AI partner that actually helps you book more jobs without creating more chaos, this is worth taking a look. Book a demo at the link below. So are there any legal things we need to be aware of or HOAs or anything like that that we need to like know before we get into it? I mean, I, I think that if you're doing yard signs, you're probably gonna get complaints and I think. Uh, prepare for that. Um, maybe be thoughtful about where you put 'em. Don't put 'em inside people's yards. Like that would probably be bad. Um, put 'em inside like public land, maybe like the devil strip, which that's an Ohio thing I guess, but yeah. Um. I don't know. Corners. Yeah, I, I wouldn't put 'em in like people's yards 'cause I'm sure that'd be trespassing or something. Yeah. Uh, besides that, I don't really know of any laws prohibiting it, and I don't mind complaints. You know, that's gonna happen every once in a while. I will hate it if you're getting negative reviews on your GP, that that would be bad. So you start seeing that, you know, get that out there. Yeah. Yeah. You know, we don't get that for canvassing, which is kind of interesting. Right. I would've imagined that something like that would happen, but it, it just never did. Maybe it's just too hard to go find somebody online. Yeah. Maybe like they search for it and they can't find it. Okay. I think some common mistakes that I see when I hear people trying to do yard signs, probably the most common mistake is expecting their technicians to do it. Mm-hmm. Because they just won't. So everyone's got, there's a, there's a strategy called the clover where you go and do a job. Then after the job's done, you go put a door hanger on the house in front of that job next to that job other, next to that job. Behind that house Clover, you clover the house. No one has ever succeeded in their technicians consistently performing at clover. Like that has never been a thing. Someone, they might have done it once, they might have done it twice, but like no one's like, yeah, dude, five straight years, week clover, every tech, every day. Like hell no. Uh, and I think that that's, I think that's the same thing here. Like your techs have a million other things on their mind. They're not gonna be trying to clover or yard sign neighborhoods. So if the best way to do it, uh, salespeople as they're going out, if they close a sale, Hey, can I put a yard sign? Uh, have a marketing team go do it, yard sign. Um, but what you, what you want is you want it to be consistent instead of like a one-off project where you go put 500 signs. One place you want it to be like, like the, the guy you described, I mean, maybe he didn't do a good job, maybe he chose the wrong things or whatever, but hey, every Friday from 12 to four, I put in 10 yard signs or whatever. Yeah. That's system and that's like likely to over time be more and more effective. So I, I think that's one of the more common mistakes is like do making it one off or like expecting. Team members that already have a lot on their plate to like just do it. Oh yeah. They'll totally remember to do it. Same as the 30 other things I want them to do. Um, so I'd be finding a different way to make sure it's consistent. Why do you think it's so hard to get techs to do that? Is it just that they have so much to do and they're already rushing off to the next appointment or what is it? Yeah, I think pick your battles. So like, what do you want? What do you want from a, uh, a technician? You want a good, a great customer experience. You want a five star customer experience. You want the customer to be happy. You want a sale to be made. You want them to collect, you want them to be a master technician. You want them to be all these things. Um. And I, a common mistake in smaller companies is like sending more and more shit for your tech to do, when really you should be aiming at less and less shit. Like your, your tech should be like, how can I do five things or four things instead of 30 things? 'cause they're already walking in, they're trying to build rapport, they're trying to explore, they're trying to figure out options. Like there's a lot going on and I would much rather they focus on that than remember to, you know, Clover the neighborhood. We can find, we can figure out somebody that's not, you know, their compensation to do that. Um, yeah, I think that makes sense. So that's, I'm, I'm, maybe someone out there has like totally mastered it and they're plumbers or canvassing geniuses. But I, I do think, uh, if you can make it a more consistent, just hire a part-timer or you could do it yourself or whatever. But, uh, sometimes it's the install manager on the follow-up. Sometimes the installers, but I found that that tends to not be very consistent either. Cool. No, I think that makes sense. I've, I mean, I dealt with the same thing in my own business where I had somebody who was just trying to do too many things, and so when we siloed off like, Hey, this is your only job, and do this as often as possible and get really, really good results with this. Yeah. We saw, yeah, a lot better performance. Yeah. You want it to be scorecarded like, I don't want to be pipping a tech because, hey, you didn't put your yard signs out. Like, come on. Like right. I, I don't know. I, I, I would find that annoying. I would find that conversation to be annoying. Um, alright. When they work best, I think they work like we, we sort of use this a little bit, but in a, in a neighborhood you're pretty dense in or in a neighborhood you're visiting. I think that's like the best pairing. Like everyone knows the three landscaping companies in my neighborhood, like they're all the same. Um, so I. Like, I do think it pairs pretty well with the truck wrap thing. Like if it's a brand, if, do you have a brand? Do you have a brand? Ideally it's a differentiated brand, refer to that episode. Uh, but ideally it's a differentiated brand with a lot of local reviews, uh, and you're pushing on a neighborhood that you want to be in. I don't know what, what are, what other thoughts do you have on yard signs? Do it. Yay, nay. I mean, I think you do it. Um, you know, I know you're mentioning this guy who had a ton of success. I still feel super skeptical that there's not something else behind that than just yard signs. But obviously people have been doing it with, you know, loads of success and other things like buying cars that I could think of or, yeah. Um. Buying houses like the, the flippers, they do it with success. So it's gotta work. Um, yeah. But like, if you're gonna do it, make sure it's, you know, a bold service line, a good offer, uh, a very clear call to action, uh, like free estimate or same day, you know, service. Yeah. Or you know, here's my phone number or QR code. Um, and I think it's most often going to work in things that are outwardly visible. Um, I, I like, you know, uh, landscaping gutters, uh, yeah. You know, spraying the house. Um, you know, that stuff is going to work more and I think it's gonna work more often when you're there. So, yeah, they're on site. You've got your sign in the yard. The neighbors are like, oh, look, they're mowing the lawn. I'd like my lawn looks, you know, overgrown guys come over to my house after you're dog. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, I think that's where it's gonna work the most. Um, versus something that's inside that you just don't see them doing. You know, if you're, yeah. If you're, uh, putting down floors, like it's just hard to see the difference versus on the outside you're like, oh, I could see a visible Yeah. Difference in that. So I think that's where it lies the most success. Um. And it's gotta be paired with other things that are driving you leads. Most marketing agencies will show you clicks, impressions, and maybe even traffic, but none of that really matters if the phone's not ringing. And that's why we partner with Service Scalers. They are built specifically for home service companies and they focus on one thing. Which is driving real high quality calls and book jobs. This is a no-brainer.

We started using it with canvassing, so we have our canvassing team put 'em out. And, um, it works. I'm, I'm actually, I'm texting our, uh, field marketing manager right now and like trying to get more information, like how well does it work? Uh, but we've been putting 'em out and supposedly it is driving some results inside plumbing, which is pretty cool. I think we're just using the $99 off of plumbing repair, um, coupon. And, but yeah, it seems to be working, which is pretty interesting. And the way we're doing it is like. We have a canvasser just go out and knock doors, and at the end of each neighborhood they pop, pop a little yard sign. And I think we're putting out like 20, 30 a day. I mean, I think a lot of it is brand. I think a lot of it is, uh, but there is leads, like there's direct leads coming from it. That's why we did that $99 off thing. But, um, it is working. So I, I don't have the, I don't have the number. I should have brought 'em, I don't have the numbers in front of me on like how much sales or how much whatever. Uh, but. Seems to be, he says, we are driving sales from that channel, direct quote. It does work. It's enough information for me. I mean, to be honest, like I'm still in doubt. Like I feel critical of that idea. But that's one of the things I love about Mark, dude. I mean that one guy time up in Michigan is like zero to 6 million or whatever with only yard signs.
