Free 30-day Sprint · For qualified service businesses
We run your first campaign free for 30 days.
You cover the ad spend. We build, run and optimize the whole system at no fee. At day 30 you look at real results on your own ad account and decide.
One objective. One market. A success number agreed in writing before launch.

How the Sprint runs
01
A 15-minute qualification call
We check that the Sprint is the right move for you. If it is not, we say so and tell you what we would do first instead.
02
A win condition in writing
Before launch we agree what “it worked” means, based on your own job value and close rate, and email it to you the same day.
03
Launch in about five days
Once we have your intake and access, we model your market and build the campaign, the landing page, the tracking and the lead response. The 30 days start when intake is complete.
04
30 days, reported weekly
A short update each week with the numbers, one insight and one next step. If we are behind at the halfway point, you hear it then.
05
The results call
Spend, qualified opportunities, cost per opportunity against target, and the week-over-week curve.
06
You decide
Continue into a paid program or stop. You keep your ad account and your data either way.
What we build
The Sprint is the full system, not a lighter version.
- A model of your market before any spend: who buys, when they decide, and what triggers action.
- Predictive campaigns, geo-targeted to your service area, on Google first and Meta where it fits.
- A landing page and form built by us, with a few qualifying questions so fewer tire-kickers reach your phone.
- Speed-to-lead automation: every opportunity gets a text and you get a notification within five minutes.
- Full tracking from click to lead to qualified opportunity to booked appointment, verified by a person with a real test lead before launch.
- Human sign-off before any campaign launches or any dollar is spent.
We do not sell “leads”. A lead is a form fill. We deliver qualified opportunities: a real person, in the market, who took a meaningful action and fits your definition of a buyer.
Who qualifies
We offer the Sprint when the math works for you.
- Budget: you can comfortably put at least $1,500 behind ads for the next 30 days.
- Math: a new customer, job or member is worth enough to support an ongoing program.
- A real gap: there is a specific thing that is not working right now.
- The decision-maker is on the call or committed to the results call.
- Fast follow-up: someone on your side calls opportunities back quickly. Contact within five minutes roughly doubles the booking rate compared with thirty.
- A competitive offer: advertising amplifies pricing and reputation, good or bad.
The Sprint is offered to service businesses. Franchise systems start with a location pilot, and events start with an attendance projection.
We run a limited number of Sprints at a time, so we hold a slot for you once you qualify and release it if intake stalls.
The honest limits
What 30 days can and cannot show.
- Thirty days is enough to prove direction and cost. Ninety days is what proves the compounding.
- We cannot fix an uncompetitive offer, and we cannot call your leads back for you.
- Seasonality is real. The same business in its slow month and its busy month will see different numbers.
- We guarantee the work, not a result. Read our guarantee.
Questions
The Sprint, answered plainly.
Is the 30-day Sprint really free?
Our fee for the Sprint is $0. You cover the ad spend only, with a minimum of $1,500 for the 30 days, paid on your own card in your own ad account. We build, run and optimize the campaign.
Who qualifies for a free Sprint?
Businesses that can put at least $1,500 behind ads for 30 days, where a new customer is worth enough to support an ongoing program, that have a specific problem to solve, that have the decision-maker involved, and that will respond quickly to the opportunities we send. We confirm this on a 15-minute call.
What happens at the end of the 30 days?
We hold a results call and compare what happened with the success number we agreed in writing at kickoff. Then you decide. Nothing converts to a paid program automatically; you would have to sign to continue.
Who owns the ad accounts and the data?
You do. Ad accounts stay in your name with Black X as an admin, and you keep your account and your data whether or not you continue. The landing pages, funnels and automations we build are ours and are licensed to you during the engagement.
What does the Sprint cover?
One objective in one market or location. We start with Google Search, because it has the highest intent and gives the cleanest signal, and add Meta when the budget or the objective calls for it.
What if the Sprint is behind its target?
We tell you at the halfway point, not on day 30, with the diagnosis and what is changing that week.
Why can you afford to do this for free?
Most of the build, optimization and reporting work is done by our software rather than billed hours, so proving it for 30 days costs us far less than it would cost a traditional agency. We limit how many Sprints run at once, which is why there is a qualification call.
