Straight answers for inspection services providers, from the team that runs the work.
It depends on your service area, your sales cycle and the services you need. Most of our inspection and compliance clients run paid search for immediate requests for proposal, paired with SEO as the long-term foundation.
We’ll right-size a plan to your market, your competitive landscape and your growth goals, and tell you exactly where each dollar goes.
Very. At the typical B2B company in the calls we've listened to, 65% of calls went to voicemail or were never picked up: 55% during business hours and 88% after hours. And most of those callers do not try again: 74% of callers who reached voicemail did not call that business again within a week.
That is why we track every call from your campaigns, flag missed calls, and help you set up call routing, after-hours coverage and fast call-backs, so the leads you pay for are not lost at the front desk.
Based on calls to 10 B2B companies we market, Apr to Sep 2026.
Mostly business hours: 20% of calls came outside Monday to Friday 9 to 5 (2% on weekends), and the busiest day is Monday. Of the calls that were answered, 42% were new-customer inquiries, 40% were existing customers, and 20% were sales pitches or wrong numbers.
That mix is why we report on qualified calls, not raw call counts.
Based on 6,300 calls to 21 B2B companies we market, Oct 2025 to Sep 2026 (timing) and Apr to Sep 2026 (call types).
Across the Google Ads accounts of the 31 B2B companies we manage, the median cost per lead over the last 12 months was $130, with a median cost per click of $3.80 and a median conversion rate of 2%.
Your number depends on your market, services and how well the landing page and phones convert. We use these medians as a starting benchmark, then work to beat them.

For the 23 B2B companies whose Google Business Profiles we manage, the median profile got about 190 views, 2 calls and 47 direction requests a month over the last year.
Reviews, photos, accurate hours and categories move those numbers, which is why local SEO is part of every plan we build for an inspection services provider.

You don’t have to choose. The best results come from doing both, with experts who know how to use AI responsibly:
A good in-house marketer is only one person. With SmartSites you get a whole team (strategist, SEO specialist, paid media lead, web designer, email specialist and social manager) for less than the cost of a single hire, with no recruiting, no PTO and no learning curve.
No, and we’ll always be straight with you about that. Effective B2B marketing takes time, and firms that expect instant ROI from SEO are usually disappointed. We don’t do risky shortcuts. Here’s what to realistically expect:
Yes. We optimize for generative engines (GEO) as well as traditional search, so inspection and compliance companies show up in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and the AI assistants buyers increasingly use to vet vendors. Our tracking includes AI mentions and citations, not just rankings.
We build campaigns around the standards and credentials buyers actually search for (ISO, OSHA, DOT and industry-specific certifications), so your website, ads and content speak directly to the compliance requirements your prospects are trying to solve.
Inspection and compliance companies don’t think in impressions or vanity metrics. They think in:
We do too. The wins we drive are more certification and audit contracts, more compliance accounts signed, and requests for proposal that actually close.
Paid search usually produces qualified inquiries within the first month. SEO builds over several months and keeps compounding. Our case studies include conversion rate up 113% and leads up 250% for CGS Global.
