Understanding the Garden Centres Market

Typical marketing costs

Economics for garden centres marketing depend on average job value, repeat rate and how shared lead marketplaces dilute margin. We model cost per enquiry against booked revenue, not clicks.

Typical cost per lead (paid search) S$35 to S$150 depending on market and urgency
Typical cost per booked job S$80 to S$400 when landing pages and follow-up are aligned
Recommended starting ad spend S$1,500 to S$4,000 per month for a single service area
SEO payback window 3 to 9 months for local service pages that rank

Shared directory leads often look cheaper upfront but convert poorly and attract fee shoppers. Owned demand usually costs more per click and less per booked job.
