Answer / Get suitable calls

How can a towing owner evaluate a marketing performance claim?

Ask what was counted, over which period, at what cost and with what evidence. A compelling percentage can still omit the information needed for a business decision.

Start with the evidence

Identify the claim’s numerator, denominator, baseline, date range, spending, service mix, attribution method and outcome definition. Ask whether results refer to clicks, calls, inquiries, bookings, completed jobs, invoices or collected payments. Use the same standard for TowMomentum and any other provider.

A worked example

Fictional claim: “Revenue doubled.” It could mean platform-assigned conversion value rose from $100 to $200, invoices increased while collection remained unknown, or reconciled receipts actually doubled. Another claim, “50% booking rate,” might mean five bookings from ten suitable requests while ignoring twenty unclassified contacts. The words need a record-level definition before comparison.

Choose the next action

Request a redacted, permissioned explanation of the method and a comparable scope. Do not demand private customer records publicly or accuse a named competitor of dishonesty because its public page lacks detail. Separate verified facts, vendor claims and your own assumptions. A case study from another market is context, not a guarantee.

Check whether it worked

Write the conclusion with its limits: supported, partially supported, unclear or not comparable. Include the next evidence needed and any cost omitted. Keep agency collected fees separate from towing-client collected payments. If the provider cannot define the outcome clearly, resolve that before using the claim in a financial plan.
