Location: Texas
Agency: Blue Collar Dreams (Coaching & Marketing for Trades & Home Services)

Background

Iron Horse Roofing was a hardworking roofing company in Texas, built on grit and craftsmanship. Despite solid workmanship, they were stuck at $400K in annual revenue. Most of their leads were poor quality, follow-ups were done manually, and the lack of a CRM was costing them opportunities. The owner was overwhelmed, juggling sales, admin, and site visits, working 60+ hours/week with no system in place.

Challenges Identified

  • Low-Quality Leads: Relying on word-of-mouth and outdated referral sites.
  • No CRM: Manual spreadsheets for tracking leads and follow-ups.
  • Poor Sales Process: No scripting, inconsistent pitch, no automation.
  • Owner Burnout: Spending too much time in the field and not on growth.
Systems, better leads, and sales training—see how Blue Collar Dreams helped Iron Horse Roofing win with the right roofing company marketing strategy.

The Blue Collar Dreams Solution

When Iron Horse partnered with Blue Collar Dreams (BCD), the goal was clear: Build a predictable, scalable system that freed up the owner’s time and increased revenue.

BCD implemented a three-part strategy:

1. Systems That Scale

CRM Setup:
BCD introduced Go High Level as a full CRM solution. They:

  • Automated lead capture, follow-ups, and reminders
  • Created sales pipelines with visual tracking
  • Integrated email/SMS drip sequences for better engagement

“Just having follow-ups automated saved us dozens of hours every month.”

2. Better Leads, Not Just More

Google Ads Funnel:
BCD built a high-converting Google Ads funnel, focused on local keywords with high buyer intent. They also:

  • Designed dedicated landing pages with call tracking
  • Filtered out price-shoppers and tire-kickers
  • Implemented A/B testing for ads and headlines

“We used to get random leads. Now we get calls from people ready to sign.”

3. Sales Team Coaching

Phone Scripts & Training:
BCD trained Iron Horse’s small sales team with custom phone scripts and objection-handling techniques. Weekly role-play and performance audits led to:

  • Improved confidence and clarity
  • Consistent communication across reps
  • Faster deal cycles

Results After 6 Months

Revenue jumped from $400K to $1.9M/year
Close Rate Improved by 42%
Owner Reduced Field Time by 15 Hours/Week
CRM Follow-Up Automations Saved 25+ Hours/Month
