Google Adwords campaigns are an effective and cost-efficient way to increase brand awareness and leads for your services locally. The data can also be used to measure performance in real-time, resulting in a greater return on investment.

Take advantage of these in-house digital advertising services that we offer to help you succeed:

• A dedicated internal team that includes Furniture Medic Digital Marketing Manager Akeeme Hogg for increasing efficiency and support, with monthly reviews of existing campaigns and budget allocations to meet your local objectives.
• Tailored budget recommendations specific to your market and service offerings. Please note that you're only billed for the actual ad spend.

If you're already running Google Adwords campaigns we can easily transition them to our internal team. Keep in mind that you could be spending unnecessarily if you're competing with our national NAF funded Google Adwords campaigns.

Many of you have probably noticed some changes and increases in the Allstate program at the beginning of Q3. With the end of the quarter, we're thrilled to report that we've received 65% more QFR leads year over year from Allstate.

Specifically, that's over 1,000 QFR leads from Allstate compared to receiving 815 in all of 2022.

This is just the beginning because we expect the program to continue to grow even more.

Keep up the great work and fantastic customer service!

We’ve recently released a new and improved version of the Cabinet Inspection Report template for QFR assignments. This version is designed to be more user-friendly and easier to understand.

You can find the updated template here, along with a “Requirements” spreadsheet that explains the requirements for each line item and provides examples of how they should look.

We encourage you to start using this version of the cabinet inspection report moving forward.

Importantly, if you have a different estimate template that captures this information in the same way, and it would be easier for you to use, please share the template with us so we can approve its use on QFR claims.

If you're already using ServiceFusion, you can continue to use it to write your estimates as long as you start fulfilling the line item requirements.
