Rival Digital manages your home services Google Ads. $3,000/month in management fees plus $5,000/month in ad spend. 80 leads/month at $100/lead. You pause ads for summer — your slowest season. Leads drop to 5/month. You just proved that Rival Digital did not build anything permanent. Every lead was rented, not owned. SEO infrastructure would deliver 30-50 leads/month even with zero ad spend.
TL;DR
Rival Digital manages home services PPC. The Webevo platform builds permanent lead infrastructure — SEO, voice AI, reputation, CRM — that generates leads whether you pay for ads or not.

Renting vs Owning Leads: A home services company spending $8,000/month on PPC for 12 months invests $96,000 and owns nothing permanent. The same $96,000 invested in SEO infrastructure, voice AI, and reputation management creates a growth system worth $150,000+ in replacement value that continues generating leads indefinitely.
Breaking the PPC Cycle
PPC works. Rival Digital generates leads through paid channels effectively. The problem is structural, not executional — PPC creates dependency.
The Webevo platform uses PPC strategically as a supplement to organic growth, not a replacement for it. SEO builds the organic foundation that generates 60-70% of sustainable lead volume. Voice AI captures every lead PPC generates (no more voicemail losses). Reputation management improves conversion rates on all channels. CRM maximizes lifetime value of every acquired customer.
The goal is not to eliminate PPC. The goal is to build the organic infrastructure that makes PPC a choice, not a necessity. When SEO ranks, reviews attract, and voice AI converts — PPC becomes an accelerator, not a lifeline.
When This Makes Sense
Rival Digital fits companies wanting immediate lead volume through paid channels with existing organic infrastructure. For companies building sustainable growth — the Webevo platform creates permanent lead assets.
