Quality leads for excavation and earthmoving businesses

Earthmoving jobs are big-ticket, and a bad lead wastes a morning of driving and measuring. We build campaigns that attract landholders and builders with real jobs, then qualify them before they reach your phone.

How we do it

What makes earthmoving ads work

Machines working, on video

Short phone clips of real jobs, like a pad being cut or a dam taking shape, stop the scroll and show you can do the work.

Qualifying questions

Job type, suburb, site access and timeframe up front, so you can quote from the office and skip the time-wasters.

Fast response

Landholders ring around. An instant reply and a same-day call-back wins jobs before the next contractor even hears about them.

FAQ

Earthmoving businesses ask

Does Facebook really work for excavation?

It does for us. Our Gympie region client gets leads for about $32, and roughly one in three becomes a paying job. People planning builds and property work spend plenty of time on Facebook, and video of machines working performs well.

How do you avoid small, time-wasting jobs?

By being specific in the ads about the work you want, and by asking qualifying questions before an enquiry is sent. You can also set a minimum job size in the form.

Can you get me work from builders?

Consumer ads bring in private jobs fastest. For builder and trade work, we combine targeted ads with a simple outreach approach and a page that shows your machines, capacity and insurance.

What area do you cover?

We work with earthmoving businesses anywhere in Australia, except the Gympie region, where we already have a client.
