How to get more leads for pool builders

Getting more leads for pool builders is a long game played in winter. People decide on a pool months before they swim in it, and the builders who are visible while they're planning get the summer bookings.

Market in the cold months

Most people want the pool finished by summer, which means they start researching and quoting in autumn and winter. That's when your profile, pages and ads need to be strongest, not in December when your schedule is already full.

Show finished pools

Pools are bought on looks and trust. A gallery of finished pools with the suburb, the type of pool and how long the build took is what moves someone from browsing to a site visit. Drone shots and the finished garden around the pool help most.

Landscapers and home builders

Landscapers design the backyards pools sit in, and home builders get asked about pools all the time. A good relationship with both sends you buyers who've already decided they want one.

Answer the money questions

  • Rough price ranges by pool type, so people self-qualify.
  • Fencing and council requirements, explained plainly.
  • Running costs: heating, chemicals, power.
  • Whether you work with finance providers, if you do.

Get found

List concrete pools, fibreglass pools, plunge pools, pool renovations and pool landscaping as separate services. Reviews that mention the build experience matter, because people worry about mess and delays.

Ads aimed at planners

Ads on specific searches like plunge pool builders or fibreglass pool installation, with pool shop, chemical and pool cleaner searches excluded, judged on site visits booked.

Rather not do this yourself? Our Google Business Profile management handles the profile, the posts and the reviews every week, for one monthly fee.
