    Roofing companies are constantly told they should spend 10% or more of their revenue on marketing - especially if they want to grow. But that advice is outdated, unrealistic, and costing roofing companies a lot of money.


    In this video, Joseph Hughes from Contractor Dynamics breaks down the real percentage roofing companies should spend on marketing in 2026… and why the smartest, most profitable roofing companies in the country are operating at around 5%, not 10%.


    You’ll learn:

    ✔️ Why spending 10%+ on marketing usually signals a broken system

    ✔️ Why buying leads is the most expensive way to grow

    ✔️ How in-house marketing capability reduces your costs over time

    ✔️ What top roofing companies are doing to keep marketing spend efficient

    ✔️ The exact activities that make the 5% rule possible

    ✔️ How to lower your cost per acquisition while building a stronger brand


    If you’ve ever wondered how much a roofing company should spend on marketing, this is the most honest, practical breakdown you’ll find.
