Every request, to the right person, the first time. A new request comes in. A call, form or text, with the job type and ZIP code attached. Request form: Job type, Replacement. ZIP code, 45230. Best time, weekday mornings. It gets sorted by job type and service area. Automatically, in seconds, before anyone has to touch it. Tags added: Replacement, East area, Estimate. Assigned to the right estimator or crew. No forwarding, no guessing, no sticky notes on the office desk. Assigned to Estimator 1, replacements, East area. With a time booked and the details attached. The homeowner picks an opening that fits that estimator's day. Booked: Wednesday, 1:30 PM. Job details attached. The homeowner gets a confirmation. Then a reminder before the visit. Nobody plays phone tag. Text: You're booked! Your estimate is Wednesday at 1:30 PM. Reminder text the day before: Your estimator arrives tomorrow at 1:30 PM. The office stops being the bottleneck. Requests keep moving, even on your busiest days. Book a call with us at majmarketingco.com.

Why work with MAJ

How MAJ moves Montgomery HVAC quotes toward a decision

Your problem

Estimates that stall after the visit

Replacement quotes in Montgomery carry a permit step and a big price, so homeowners take their time. If no one follows up within days, the second or third quote usually wins.

What we build

Booked estimates and follow-up that runs on its own

We route each request to the right estimator with a booked time, put the permit step in the quote and run reminders after every estimate until the homeowner decides.

  • Montgomery rules in every quote

    There is no city contractor license here, so we put your credentials, your reviews and the NIC permit step where homeowners can see them.

  • Built for the long sale

    Pipelines, reminders and lost-reason tracking are set up around replacement quotes, the jobs that take longest to close.

  • Honest tracking

    Leads and booked estimates are tracked by source, and sold installs are connected where your systems allow, so slow months show up as slow months.

Montgomery rules that touch every HVAC job

  • New HVAC equipment needs a permit

    Montgomery requires permits for new HVAC equipment, ductwork and gas lines on homes. Every replacement you sell there includes a permit step, so quotes, confirmations and reminders should mention it.

  • NIC reviews and inspects

    The city's Community Development building division takes the application, and National Inspection Corporation does plan review and on-site inspections. Homeowners will meet an inspector, so tell them when.

  • No separate city contractor license

    The City of Montgomery does not have its own licensing requirement for contractors. Your credentials and reviews carry the trust question here, so show them.

  • Landmarks have their own review

    Exterior changes to a listed Montgomery landmark need a certificate of approval from the Landmarks Commission, which has named 32 landmarks. Flag those addresses before planning where an outdoor unit goes.

  • 45242, shared with Blue Ash

    Montgomery's ZIP code is 45242, which Blue Ash also uses. Pages and service-area settings should name Montgomery so homeowners see the right permit rules.

What trips up Montgomery HVAC sales

Quotes that skip the permit conversation
When the homeowner hears about the permit after signing, the install feels slower than promised. Saying it up front reads as competence.
No record of why jobs were lost
Without lost reasons in a CRM, the same objection kills the same kind of quote next season.
A page that could be anywhere
A generic Cincinnati-area page does not tell a Montgomery homeowner you know their city's rules.

Watch

Every Montgomery estimate on one board

A Montgomery replacement can sit open while the homeowner waits on a second quote and reads up on the permit. This explainer shows each lead as a card moving from new to estimate given to won or lost, with reminders that go out without anyone remembering to send them.

CRM pipeline: every lead tracked from first call to won job
Read the transcript

Every lead gets a card. Every card keeps moving. Every call, form and text becomes a lead card. Nothing lives on a sticky note or in someone's head. Cards move across clear stages. New, Contacted, Estimate booked, Estimate sent, then Won or Lost. Follow-ups go out on day 1, 3 and 7. Automatic texts and emails, so quotes do not go cold. Day 1, check-in text sent. Day 3, follow-up email sent. Day 7, last check-in text sent. Customer replied. Every quote ends in Won or Lost. Won jobs move to the schedule. Lost ones get a reason, so you can learn from them. Won: added to the schedule. Lost reason: went with another quote. The whole pipeline on one screen. See what is new, what is booked and what is waiting, at a glance.

Questions owners ask

Does Montgomery require a permit to replace HVAC equipment?

Yes. The City of Montgomery requires permits for new HVAC equipment, ductwork and gas lines on homes. National Inspection Corporation handles plan review and inspections, so your quote and confirmation messages should explain that step.

Do HVAC contractors need a Montgomery city license?

No. The City of Montgomery does not have its own contractor licensing requirement. That puts more weight on what homeowners can see: your credentials, your reviews and real video of your work.

When should an HVAC company run tune-up and maintenance plan ads?

Run cooling tune-up pushes in spring and heating tune-up pushes in fall. That matches ENERGY STAR's advice to check the cooling system in spring and the heating system in fall. Booking those visits before the first heat wave or cold snap puts paid work on the schedule ahead of the emergency rush, and every visit is a chance to sign a maintenance agreement.

What shows up in the monthly report?

Booked jobs by source, cost per booked job and where to put your budget next. Calls are tracked, forms land in the CRM with their source, and we split emergency repairs from replacements and maintenance agreements, so a busy week of repairs does not hide a weak replacement pipeline.

How much do reviews matter for HVAC calls?

A lot. BrightLocal's 2026 consumer survey reports that 97% of consumers read reviews for local businesses and 71% use Google to read them, national figures across all local businesses. We ask every finished job for a review by text and reply to each one, because reviews are part of what a homeowner sees in the map results before calling.
