Local business case study

52% more quote requests a month

Benchmark Insurance Group. How local SEO, Google LSAs, and a faster quote path filled three quiet offices.

Why it mattersFor a brokerage, more quote requests at a lower cost is the whole game. We grew them 52% while cost per lead fell, so every producer had work to chase.

The situation

Where they started.

Benchmark Insurance Group came to us with three offices and a referral pipeline that was drying up. The site didn't rank, the Google Business Profiles were half-finished, and newer producers were sitting on quiet phones. The goal: build an inbound engine so every producer had quotes to chase, without buying the junk leads the industry is famous for.

What we ran

What we did about it.

The 30-Day Plug-In audit showed the demand was already there: people across their twelve towns were searching for coverage every day, and Benchmark simply wasn't in the results. The plan rebuilt the local foundation first (profiles, rankings, reviews), then turned on paid where intent was highest, and shortened the path from click to quote. It is the kind of work we run for local businesses.

01Rebuilt the Google Business Profiles and the local SEO behind them
02Turned on Google Local Service Ads with proper lead screening
03Cut the quote form from eleven fields to four, mobile-first
04Set a steady review request after every policy that bound
KilledA display campaign that drove clicks and no quotes, cut at the first rebuild.
Day 1Plug-In: audit, access, baseline
Day 30Profiles rebuilt, LSAs switched on
WeeklyCadence: working session, Friday update
Day 90Rebuild: budget to converting towns

Quote requests grew 52% a month while cost per lead fell 38%. The profiles reached the top-3 map pack in 9 of 12 towns, reviews climbed from 41 to 180+, and LSAs went from zero to 60+ screened leads a month. Enough new business that the owner's next problem was hiring, the kind of problem the engagement was built to create.

From the owner

“The phones started ringing again. I had to hire a producer just to keep up, which is the kind of problem I'll take.”
