Same direct mail. Different system. Leaf Leads is the cheapest flyer drop in the category. Tree Traction is a route-level marketing system. The difference shows up in your month-over-month numbers, not your per-piece price.

Most tree service companies mail to entire zip codes and hope the phone rings. It does. But most of your calls come from less than half the mailing area.

The other half is wasted money. Every month. In the same spots. Because you don’t know which neighborhoods are actually working.

That’s the problem Tree Traction exists to solve.

Why Tree Traction

Three things nobody else in tree-service mail does.

Leaf Leads sells you flyers. We sell you a system. Here is what that means.

Your ROI gets better every month.

75% of calls come from 50% of routes. We find the dead 50% with route-level call tracking and cut it. Everyone else burns the same budget on the same dead routes, forever.

Everything we build is yours.

Every tracking number, every route insight, every heat map lives on your dashboard and ports out for $1.25 if you leave. We don’t rent you leads. We build your asset.

Money plus old trees. Mapped.

We’re the only company in the country with tree canopy data at the carrier-route level, layered over income, property value, and home age. 295 data points per route. No gut instinct, no wasted coverage.

★★★★★
In the last six months we’ve added over $200,000 in sales. We’ve had to add crews, buy equipment. Our business has almost doubled. We’ve made our money back 10 times over.

What clients say

Real tree-service owners. Real numbers.

★★★★★
First job was a $6,500 crane job. Paid for the first month and a half right there. One piece of mail can turn into 10 leads in the same neighborhood.
JustinOwner, Chester Tree Care
★★★★★
We have 4 companies doing about $37M per year. What we love is how they find clients by tree density. Communication, responsiveness, and how proactive they are. It’s really helped us grow.
JasonOwner, Elite Tree Care
★★★★★
First two weeks alone we did over $25,000, serviced and paid for. Now consistently over $40,000/month from their leads alone.

How the free zip analysis works

Drop your zip. Get the map. Decide if we’re a fit.

  1. 1

    You submit your zip.

    Above. Takes 30 seconds. Just the zip and what you’re hoping to learn.

  2. 2

    We run your 30-minute radius.

    Every carrier route, scored on tree canopy plus income plus home age plus property value. The same data we run for every paying client.

  3. 3

    We walk you through the map.

    Quick call. You see the shortlist of routes worth chasing first, and where the “big tree, big budget” concentration is.

  4. 4

    You keep the map. Even if you don’t hire us.

    The analysis is yours. Take it to a local printer and DIY if you want. It’ll still be better than the way you’re picking routes now.

Common questions

Asked before. Answered straight.

How is Tree Traction different from Leaf Leads?

Leaf Leads is a flat-rate flyer drop. They print and mail what you order, with one phone number on the flyer.

Tree Traction is a monthly retainer with route-level call tracking (one number per carrier route), custom design every drop, and a dedicated account manager.

Leaf Leads is cheaper per piece. Tree Traction is built to compound, so your cost per call drops month over month.

Isn’t cheaper mail just better?

Only if every piece works equally well. About 75% of calls come from 50% of routes. The other 50% is dead weight.

Cheap mail to dead routes costs more than focused mail to live ones. We track every route, find the dead ones, and cut them. You cannot do that with a single phone number on a self-service flyer.

What does Tree Traction cost?

Per piece, not per lead. Pricing runs $0.52 to $0.70 per piece depending on volume.

Our Growth plan is roughly $3,200 per month for around 4,600 letters across two mailings. Postage included.

What is the free zip code analysis, really?

We pull every street within a 30-minute drive and show you which ones have big, old trees and homeowners who can afford the work.

We’ve run this for 996+ tree pros. You walk away with the map either way.

Do I own my phone numbers if I leave?

Yes. Every tracking number ports out for $1.25 each. Your data, your route insights, your campaign history are yours from day one.

Is my zip code available?

One tree company per zip on our side. Submit yours in the form above. We will tell you on the call.

Is there a contract?

Monthly recommended because route-level optimization needs a few mailings to dial in. No annual lock-in.
