Jake Sheldon on The BEST Way To Get Leads For Pest Control, Creating Offers, and Closing Deals

On this episode of Pest Control Legends, Dan Leibrandt interviews Jake Sheldon to unpack the fastest, real-world ways pest control companies scale. From day one tactics to long-term plays, they start with strategic partnerships—how to replace handshake referrals with written agreements, line up lawn care and moving companies as perfect complements, and stagger customer text blasts so your office isn’t swamped overnight.Jake shares the standout offers that cut through $50/$100-off fatigue (like a low-cost initial tied to an annual plan) and the follow-through that makes them work: sharp copy, strong creative, speed-to-lead, and sales psychology on the phone. They dive into building million-dollar operations—aim bigger, hire A-players for culture and grit, and treat marketing as a core competency so leads are never the bottleneck. You’ll also hear when to use vested equity for key hires, how Jake structures his own equity deals, and why building to sell tightens systems even if you never exit.Stick around for updates on their co-authored book Zip Code Kings (pre-order link in the description) and how the Pest Control Millionaires program turns these playbooks into repeatable growth.Jake Sheldon, Co-Founder of Pest Control Millionaires:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-sheldon-6a0981a9/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jake.sheldon.7Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakesheldon25/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jakesheldonPCMDan Leibrandt, Host of Pest Control Legends:Facebook: https://facebook.com/DanLeibrandtOfficial  LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/danleibrandt/   Twitter: https://twitter.com/DanLeibrandt   Website: https://danleibrandt.comPest Control Legends Platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PestControlLegends Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/46XRaco5nPWcqHWIoQ2eZ5Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pest-control-legends/id1768175212Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b060991d-e5d5-4683-b83f-8db469714ba7/pest-control-legends Audible: https://www.audible.com/podcast/Pest-Control-Legends/B0DGWL3119?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdp#pestcontrol #pestcontrolmarketing #pestcontroladvertising #pestcontrolleads #pestcontrolbusiness #pestcontrolads #jakesheldon #danleibrandt #pestcontromillionaires #pestcontrollegends #pestcontrolowner
