Free tool 05 · Trial Stall Check

Which of your contractor trials will convert, and which are stuck at setup? Check each one in a minute.

For each trial, answer a few setup questions. You get a stall risk with the two reasons behind it, the setup step that unblocks it, and the one question to ask the owner this week.

How the risk is calculated (and how to change it)

Each sign below adds its points. The score is the points a trial collects, divided by the sum of all weights, times 100. These weights are a starting guess, not a benchmark: replace them with what you've seen in your own trials. A sign only counts once it's due: price book by day 2, customers by day 3, techs by day 5, first real job by day 7, first invoice by day 10, the owner on a call by day 2 and the office active by day 3 (all by the day before the end in shorter trials). A trial that ends within 5 days with no first job is at least medium risk, and high risk in its last 2 days.

Want a second pair of eyes on how your demos get booked?

This tool checks the contractor trials you're running now from what you entered. It can't see your CRM, your inbox, your calendar or the contractors you sell to. If the result shows a gap, I'll do a free written review of how demos get booked at your company and send it within 48 hours: what I'd fix first, and the first home-service businesses I'd go after.

The check covers trials already running. In the review I look upstream: which demos turn into trials that convert, and the first home-service businesses I'd go after.
