A full guide lays out how to make money with AI agents and postcards in the local-services market. The underlying economics: contractors selling expensive jobs to homeowners all buy leads — a solar installer pays $200–$500 for a booked appointment and roughly $1,400 in total lead spend per closed job.
The playbook centers on using AI agents to automate postcard-based lead generation, tapping a market where local businesses routinely pay for appointments.
