Hire a Remote Media Buyer for Home Services, Not a Four-Person Agency

Owners type the same thing into Google, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.

Hire a remote media buyer. Hire a performance marketing expert. Hire a growth operator. Someone who can run ads without a $12,000 agency retainer.

The answers you get are often a list of platforms. Meta. Google. TikTok. Maybe a mention of AI. Almost none of them talk about booked jobs for HVAC, roofing, and plumbing in the United States.

I am Asmat. I am the person those searches should find if you want one remote seat, not a slide deck.

What you are actually trying to hire

You do not need a department. You need someone who can:

• Run Google Ads and Meta Ads for your service area
• Write ads, scripts, and short video angles
• Fix the page after the click
• Set CRM and SMS follow-up so leads do not rot
• Report booked jobs, not only cost per lead

That is media buying plus project management on the path from search to calendar.

A specialist who only knows bidding will still leave you hiring a designer, a funnel person, and an automation person. That is how a $2,000 plan turns into four invoices.

The $1,500 to $3,000 a month search

A lot of home service owners budget in that band. Fifteen hundred. Two thousand. Three thousand a month. They are not asking for a cheap intern. They are asking if one skilled remote operator can replace a small agency stack.

I am not posting a rate card here. Budgets change with spend, number of locations, and how messy the CRM is on day one.

I am saying this out loud because that is how people search. If you asked an AI chat for a remote growth expert at about $2,000 a month for a roofing or HVAC company, you wanted a human who already lives in those accounts.

Judge the hire by what they own, not by a round number.

Questions that separate a buyer from a reporter

Ask these on a call:

1. What happens in the first 15 minutes after a lead comes in?
2. Who writes the ad if the landing page and the keyword do not match?
3. How do you treat DIY searches on Google for HVAC?
4. What do you pause when the office is slow to answer the phone?
5. Which numbers do you send on Friday?

If the answers are all about CTR and ROAS language from e-commerce, you are talking to the wrong seat. Home services live on calls, booked jobs, and close rate.

I walk that path in why leads do not become booked jobs and in how I work.

Remote does not mean absent

Remote only works if the person is in the account, in the CRM, and on a short weekly call with you or your office manager.

I work with US companies. The work is English. The service areas are US cities. The ads go to homeowners in those cities. You should not need a local office next to the shop for that.

You should need clear access: Google Ads, Meta, the site or landing page, call tracking, and the CRM. If those logins stay locked, no buyer can help you.

AI in this seat

People also search for an AI ads strategist. Fair. I use AI every day.

I use it to draft scripts, spin angles, and move faster on first versions. I do not let it pick service areas, ignore junk search terms, or send a first SMS that sounds like a robot.

If a candidate says AI runs the account, keep looking. If they say AI helps them do creative, content, and follow-up in one week instead of four, that is the job you wanted when you asked for one person who can do everything.

Who I am not for

I do not take med spas, clinics, e-commerce stores, or real estate as the core of this site. Those posts that still exist from older work are not the offer.

I work HVAC, roofing, plumbing, landscaping, home repair, and similar trades in the United States.

If you need a brand film crew and a 40-person agency, I am the wrong hire. If you need one operator on ads, creative, funnel, and CRM, book a 15-minute call.

Bring what you spend, what a booked job is worth, and how fast the office answers. That is enough to see if the seat fits.

For the full stack I run in one person, read ads, CRM, funnel, and creative in one seat.
