  • EDMONTON + CALGARY 2-tab nav-segmentation is rare per-city navigation routing — most Alberta multi-city roofers use a single nav with a city-selector dropdown. Bains' explicit 2-tab routing surfaces both city options upfront, reducing decision-friction for buyers in either market.

Critical Conversion Failures

Conversion Killers

Fervor Grade™ — Most Damaging Findings

Conversion Machinery Below Industry Bar

  • ✗ Below Industry Bar

    No single conversion-blocker surfaced in the Site Inspection, but category-level rubric scores below the 80% bar across multiple pages limit the ceiling on visitor-to-lead conversion regardless of traffic volume.

22% of users abandon forms because the process is too long or complicated (Baymard Institute, 2024). 62.45% of users browse on mobile (Statcounter, 2025).
Revenue Projection

Revenue Impact

Conversion Gap Calculation

Step 1 — Traffic Baseline (estimated): Bains Roofing draws an estimated 5,000–15,000 monthly organic visitors from search and direct traffic. Estimate from third-party tools; actual variance ±30–50%.

Step 2 — Conversion Benchmarks (published): The average paid search conversion rate for roofing services is 8.0–12.0% (LocaliQ 2025, 3,200+ campaigns). The average CPC is $8–$18. Average project value for this brand: $8,000–$25,000 (mid: $16,500) (researched per-brand from public pricing sources).

Step 3 — Conversion Gap Argument (observed): The Site Inspection did not surface any single conversion-blocker. Improvements are distributed across rubric categories scoring below 80%.

Step 4 — Financial Range:

Assumptions

VariableValueSource / Rationale
Monthly organic visitors (estimated)5,000 – 15,000Third-party traffic estimates ±30–50%
Industry CVR for roofing services8.0% – 12.0%LocaliQ 2025 (3,200+ campaigns)
Estimated current site CVR6.2% – 9.2%Scaled by current Fervor Grade weighted score
Estimated CVR after fixes8.0% – 12.0%Industry benchmark for category
Avg project value$8,000 – $25,000 (mid: $16,500)[BRAND] from per-brand pricing research, confidence: high
Close rate (industry)30% – 40%Standard residential-services close rate
Monthly revenue left on the table $0 – $5.1M/month
Annual cost of inaction $0 – $60.7M/year

Step 5 — Paid Traffic Argument: At the industry CPC of $8–$18 for roofing services and a brand avg-project-value of $16,500, every paid click hits the site's current conversion infrastructure. Improving the lowest-scoring rubric category lifts ROI on every advertising dollar already being spent.

Revenue projections are estimates based on published industry benchmarks and third-party traffic estimates. They should not be interpreted as guarantees.
