Prepared for Yosubi · Supply pilot, Jefferson County · October 2026

Every contractor in the county. We enrol everyone.

The PoC is regional, so the coverage is total: every contractor business in Jefferson County, with Shelby as overflow, across the twelve trades Yosubi serves, in an eight-week window. We drive every record to an enrolment: a yes gets the onboarding link in the same conversation, a non-response is recycled with a new message, and we stop at a no, not before. A guaranteed floor sits underneath in the commitments, and the enrolment curve is measured week by week. Two supply personas, contracting companies with crews between projects and solo tradespeople doing side work, reached in English and Spanish through the thirty-second onboarding Yosubi already runs. Counts marked measured come from public datasets we pulled directly. Ranges marked estimated are planning assumptions the pilot replaces with data.

01

The objective

Total coverage, a hard floor, and a measured curve.

FULL COVERAGE

Every contractor business in the county.

The whole measured universe, about 1,380 employer businesses with Shelby as overflow, plus the solo layer through the Spanish-language and community sources. Outreach covers everyone, not a sample sized to a target.

ENROL EVERYONE

Enrolment is the goal for every record, not a quota.

Every yes gets the onboarding link in the same conversation. Every non-response is recycled with a new message. We stop at a no, and not before. The commitments below carry the guaranteed floor; the operation aims at the whole list.

MEASURED

Rates per trade, per channel, per persona.

Enrolment, profile completion and cost per enrolled contractor, so the next metro is priced on data and the enrolment curve can sit in a fundraising deck.

02

The universe, measured

Private employer establishments from the 2024 federal employment census, pulled directly. Solo operators sit on top of these counts.

Landscaping203414~1,000Ample
Total~1,380~2,570~8,000
The whole table gets worked and every record is driven to an enrolment. Nothing is sampled. Flooring, drywall and framing are the trades where the floor is hardest. They get extra outreach hours from week four and are worked first through the Spanish-language and community sources. Licensed layers sit on top: 9,211 home-builder licensees and 10,594 general-contractor licensees statewide, filterable to the two counties. Solo operators are not in the employer counts; the census nonemployer data puts them at roughly three times the employer count, and higher still in painting, drywall, flooring and handyman work.

What we build and run

Three weeks to build, five to run.

Weeks 1-3
Lists.Every contractor business in Jefferson County, with Shelby as overflow, by trade: map listings in English and Spanish, state licence rosters, business filings, marketplace profiles. Phones validated, emails verified, duplicates removed, a Spanish-language flag per record, trades mapped to Yosubi's categories.
Weeks 1-3
Infrastructure.Sending domains and mailboxes warming, real LinkedIn seats warming, a human-initiated dialer with recording, per-channel and per-caller onboarding links, a shared tracker and a weekly dashboard in Slack.
Weeks 1-3
Messaging.Call guides, email sequences and community posts in English and Spanish for both personas, consistent with Max's social calendar. A ten-entry sample approved by Gabe before any volume.
Weeks 3-8
Outreach.Bilingual cold callers as the primary channel, email to contracting companies, LinkedIn to owners of the larger firms, and the local contractor communities. Every yes receives the onboarding link immediately and is tracked to a completed profile. The full list is worked to the end of the window.
Weeks 3-8
The weekly loop.Thirty minutes with Gabe and Ellie each week. Numbers by trade, channel and persona. Outreach hours rebalanced toward the trades furthest from ten. Non-responders recycled with a new message after three weeks.
Week 8
Hand-off.The enrolled pool by trade with profile status, the full contact universe with outcomes, measured rates per channel and persona, cost per enrolled contractor, the messages that won, and a one-page enrolment curve for the fundraising deck.
04

Two supply personas

Both reached in English and Spanish, through the flow Yosubi already runs.

PersonaWhy they enrol
Contracting companies with crews between projectsCarry the trades in volume and adopt tools more readily. Reached by callers, email and LinkedIn to the owners.
Solo tradespeople doing side workMany Spanish-speaking, many later starting their own businesses. Reached by callers and the community sources, in Spanish first where the record says so.

The enrolment flow is the one Yosubi already runs: thirty seconds to onboard, licence at first project. Every yes gets the onboarding link in the same conversation, on the channel the contractor is already holding.

05

What Yosubi provides

Seven things that make the numbers possible.

From our conversation, confirmed at kickoff:

  • The category list and sign-off on the trade mapping.
  • Onboarding links that accept a tracking parameter per channel and per caller, in web, SMS and WhatsApp flows, in English and Spanish.
  • Live projects pushed to newly enrolled contractors within days. A contractor who joins and hears nothing for three weeks is lost. This is the largest risk to the pilot's numbers, and it sits with Yosubi.
  • A short page in English and Spanish that says what the call says: scope, price, escrow, pay-out timing.
  • The escrow and pay-out timing we may state, confirmed in writing.
  • A Slack channel, a weekly thirty minutes, and same-day answers on the ten-entry sample.
  • Coordination with Max so the social posts and the outreach say the same thing in the same weeks.
06

Calibration and commitments

What to plan against, and what we owe if we miss.

Our planning range for the eight-week window is 80 to 200 enrolled contractors against the 120 floor, ten profile-complete contractors per trade, unevenly spread across trades. The event is an enrolment, not a meeting, and contractors answer their business line far more readily than B2B buyers answer cold calls. A single number before the lists are live would be marketing, not a commitment. The week-four readout replaces the range with measured rates.
CommitmentIf we miss
Lists live and calling started by the end of week 3.Month two is free.
Floor of 60 profile-complete enrolments by the end of week 6, one step below the low end of the range.A third month, should Yosubi continue, is free. Exposure is capped at one month.
Numbers every Monday: enrolments by trade, channel and persona, profile completion, cost per enrolment.In Slack by noon, every week, no exceptions.

Investment

No setup fee. A two-month PoC, then we scale.

ComponentWhat it coversFee
Monthly retainerEmail and LinkedIn outreach: lists for Jefferson and Shelby, validation and verification, domains and mailboxes warming, two-language messaging, sending, weekly readouts, tracker and hand-off.$4,000 / month
Cold caller, optionalA bilingual cold caller on a recorded dialer, with per-caller onboarding links. Calling is the channel contractors answer, so we recommend at least one.+$1,000 / month per caller
SetupLists, infrastructure and messaging are built inside the retainer in weeks one to three.$0, no setup fee
Option: demand list and sequenceEvery property manager and investor-owner with up to 40 doors in Jefferson County, verified, with a sequence that invites them to price their next repair in Yosubi.Scoped separately
The PoC is two months. Base fees are monthly prepayment, invoiced at the start of each month; work starts when the invoice is paid. After the two months, Huntsville, Baldwin County, Atlanta, Nashville and Florida, and the white-label marketplace research, are scoped on the pilot's measured numbers. If the curve holds, the same machine opens Huntsville and Atlanta before the fundraise closes.

Start the next Monday both calendars allow.

  1. Weeks one to three: build. Lists, infrastructure, messaging, and the ten-entry sample on Gabe's desk.
  2. Week three: outreach begins. Callers first, email and LinkedIn behind them, communities alongside.
  3. Week four: the readout sets the pace. Measured rates replace the planning range, and the hours follow the trades furthest from ten.

$4,000 a month for email and LinkedIn, plus $1,000 a month per cold caller. No setup fee. Two months of PoC, then we scale. Prepayment at the start of each month; work starts when the invoice is paid.
