North County San Diego · Free contractor tools

The Contractor Growth Hub.

Free tools to find and fix what’s leaking jobs between Google and the booked call — no signup for the free ones. Run the diagnostics, work the checklist, or run your own numbers through the calculator below.

Built by Joshua Lyman, an active-duty Navy operator — North County San Diego only.

Hand-drawn sketch of a funnel: jobs and phone calls pour in the top, but a few leak out through a crack in the side — the leads a contractor loses between Google and the booked call
The tools

Three jobs. Find it, fix it, see it working.

No blog scroll, no directory listings — just the tools RSP actually uses, in the order they matter. The three marked Interactive compute in your browser, right now, from what you type or check — the rest are marked honestly as guides and resources, not tools dressed up as one.

Interactive · your numbers, your estimate

The Missed-Call Money Calculator.

This is fact-safe by design: every number in the output comes from what you type in below. RSP doesn’t claim a stat about your business — you supply the inputs, the math is shown in full, and you can check it yourself.

What a typical booked job is worth to you.
Total inbound calls you get in a typical month.
Your honest estimate of the share that go unanswered or unreturned.
Close-rate assumption: 33% — this calculator assumes you’d win about 1 in 3 of the calls you currently miss if you answered or called them back. That number is a labelled constant, not a claim about your business; change your own inputs above and the math updates, but this assumption stays visible so you can judge it yourself.
What’s walking out the door
$1,485
Estimated lost revenue / month
$17,820
Estimated lost revenue / year
$450 job value × 40 calls/mo × 25% missed × 33% close rate = $1,485/mo

This is the leak Roscoe LeadOS closes — not with a promise, with a follow-up system on every call you’d otherwise miss.

Interactive · self-assessment, your answers only

The Contractor Growth Grader.

Ten questions across the four stages of the Trust Path — get found, get trusted, get the call, follow up. This scores your own answers, not your business against anyone else’s. No claim about results, just an honest read on where the path is leaking.

The 48-Hour Website Readiness Checklist.

The same ten checks RSP runs before a 48-hour site rebuild. Check off what’s already true for your site — the bar moves live, and the checked state is visible even with JavaScript off.

Below 70%? That’s exactly what the 48-hour Site Launch fixes.

We didn’t just write about it

We built the local authority system.

Coastal SD Pros is a live North County plumber registry RSP built and runs today — a homeowner trust layer where every listed plumber is license-checked and the ranking methodology is published, not hidden. It’s not a demo and it’s not a case study slide: it’s a working directory a homeowner can visit right now.

RSP builds that same Trust Path for a contractor’s own business — found in Maps, trusted on the site, reachable by phone, followed up on, and readable by the AI tools homeowners increasingly ask instead of searching. The tools on this page are pieces of that system. Coastal SD Pros is the proof the system isn’t theoretical.

  • License-checked. Every listed business is verified against real license data — not self-reported.
  • Methodology published. The ranking logic is public, not a black box.
  • Live, not mocked up. It’s a running site homeowners actually use.
  • Same system, contractor-facing. RSP builds this Trust Path for your business specifically.
The bridge

Want this kind of local authority system for your business?

Coastal SD Pros proves the system works for homeowners. Site Launch, Maps Growth, and Roscoe LeadOS are how RSP builds the contractor-facing version of it — found, trusted, reachable, followed up on. Everything is month-to-month, and you only pay if you launch.

FAQ

Growth Hub questions.

What is the Contractor Growth Hub?

A free tools and resources hub for North County San Diego contractors — not a blog, not a directory. It collects the diagnostics that find where you’re leaking jobs between Google and the booked call, the guides and calculator that help you fix what they find, and the live proof of the system RSP builds, all in one place.

Are the tools really free?

Yes. The Lead Leak Map, the Maps Visibility Check, the Missed-Call Money Calculator, the Contractor Growth Grader, the 48-Hour Website Readiness Checklist, and the cost guide are all free with no obligation. RSP runs them because they’re the fastest honest way to show how the work happens, and because the recommendation is always the smallest move that fits — sometimes that’s no paid work at all.

Do I need to sign up?

No signup for the free tools. The calculator, the Growth Grader, and the Website Readiness Checklist all run entirely in your browser on what you type in or check off. The Lead Leak Map and Maps Visibility Check ask for your website and Google Business Profile link so the check is grounded in your real data, not a signup form.

What is Coastal SD Pros and how does it relate?

Coastal SD Pros is a real, live North County plumber registry RSP built — a license-checked, methodology-published trust layer for homeowners. It’s proof, not a case study: the same local authority system described on this hub, already built and running. RSP builds that same Trust Path for a contractor’s own business.

How do these tools help me get more jobs?

Each tool targets one stage of the path between a Google search and a booked job: get found (Maps visibility), get trusted (your website), and stop the leak once the phone rings (the missed-call math). Fixing the stage that’s actually broken moves more jobs than guessing which one it is.

Are the Growth Grader and Website Checklist actually interactive, or just more reading?

They’re interactive. The Growth Grader scores your own yes/no answers about your setup and names which Trust Path stage is weakest. The Website Readiness Checklist is a live checklist with a progress bar that shows your percentage as you check items off. Both compute entirely in your browser from your own inputs — no signup, no data sent anywhere — and both still show their full content as a plain checklist if JavaScript is off.
