My pest control marketing company shows no results. What should I check?

Ask for a written list of what was done last month, then count the customers you can name that came from it. If the list is empty or the count is zero, you have your answer. Wanna drafts posts and offers from your website for your OK. It does not run ads or find customers for you.

What pest control owners wrote

We read eight comments from self-described pest control operators, written 28 Jul to 9 Sep 2026 in trade threads. Roles are unchecked, and eight people cannot tell you how many owners feel this way.

On marketing companies:

• Dated 9 Sep 2026, an owner who fired their marketing company after an outside analysis: "I had no idea what the dummies I was working with were supposed to be doing but then the analysis showed they weren't doing anything."
• Dated 2 Aug 2026, an operator leaving a website company: it "promised the world and then didn’t remotely deliver." They add, "I don’t own any of the content on the website."
• Dated 2 Aug 2026, an owner who took over a friend's business and its vendor: "$250 a month and I really didn’t see any value in it."
• Dated 23 Aug 2026, an owner who runs ads without an agency: "if you have an agency there's no chance you will have positive roi with ads that's true for all platforms because they get paid monthly not by the hour"

On paid leads:

• Dated 28 Jul 2026, an owner of a pest control and roofing business: "Last month, with a bigger budget, I got 6 jobs, but only 2 of those converted to a recurring plan, compared to my normal 40–50% conversion rate." Two of six is one in three, our arithmetic.
• Dated 1 Aug 2026, another operator: "I've gotten LOADS of FB instant forms filled, but have never actually gotten ahold of a customer," even with instant texts, calls and email follow-up.
• Dated 28 Jul 2026, a third: "Facebook leads are trash. It’s the opposite of what you want, people with bug problems and no money."

One more voice points the other way. Dated 4 Aug 2026, an operator wrote: "Just ran some reports and we've done $12,000 of work for clients who found us via nextdoor in the last year." So one channel worked for one operator, and they could show it from their own reports.

Five checks before the next invoice

1. Ask what was done last month, in writing. One owner above learned the answer only from an outside analysis.
2. Count customers you can name. For a month, ask every new customer how they found you. Divide the monthly fee by that number.
3. Follow each lead to the end. Count leads, jobs closed and recurring plans signed.
4. Check who owns the site. Find the contract line on content and domain, and what happens when you leave.
5. Change one thing at a time. Hold a spend increase for a month and watch booked jobs, not clicks.

This list is common sense, not measured with a pest control company. We found no figure for how often these contracts fail, and state none.

Where Wanna fits

You paste your website link. Wanna reads the site and drafts a plan, posts and offers for your OK. The start page says: "Free. No card. Nothing is posted without you." On the home page, Free is your first five things at $0, Starter $20 a month (about one task a day), Growth $49 (about 17 tasks a day) and Scale $149 (up to 5 companies).

Wanna is early. We have no results from a pest control company, and this page promises no calls or jobs.

What Wanna does not replace

• It does not audit your marketing company or cancel a contract.
• It does not run ads, answer leads or call anyone.
• It does not tell you whether a lead will become a recurring plan.
• It does not treat a pest or visit a home. Customers still book and pay you directly.
• It does not replace an outside analysis, which one owner above called reasonably priced.

FAQ
