How Can the Revenue Acquisition Flywheel Plug My 3 Biggest Sales Leaks?
Most service businesses—dentists, medspas, home services, legal firms—don't fail from a lack of leads. They fail because of leaks. Leaks in their sales process that bleed revenue dry.
I'm Jerrod Anthraper, founder of Tykon.io. I've built and scaled service businesses. I know the math. A single missed after-hours lead can cost $5,000 in lifetime value. Under-collected reviews kill referral velocity. Unsystematic referrals mean zero compounding.
These are your 3 biggest sales leaks:
After-hours lead loss.
Under-collected reviews.
Unsystematic referrals.
Enter the Revenue Acquisition Flywheel. Not a chatbot. Not a gimmick. A plug-and-play AI sales system that captures, converts, and compounds demand 24/7. It plugs these leaks. Recovers revenue. Builds a flywheel that spins faster over time.
In this post, I'll break down each leak. Show the math. Explain how Tykon.io's flywheel fixes them. No fluff. Just operators' truth.
The 3 Sales Leaks: Math That Hurts
Leaks aren't feelings. They're dollars.
Leak 1: After-Hours Lead Loss
Your ads run 24/7. Leads hit after 5 PM. Weekends. Holidays. But your team? Gone.
The Math:
Average service business: 20% of leads after hours.
$500 average lead value (dentist consult, HVAC quote, etc.).
50 leads/month = 10 after-hours.
70% conversion drop-off without instant response (HubSpot data).
Monthly Loss: 10 leads × $500 × 70% = $3,500.
Annual: $42,000.
Old process: Voicemail. Ghosted leads. Competitors swoop in.
Leak 2: Under-Collected Reviews
You deliver great service. But reviews? Sporadic. Staff forgets. Patients leave happy, but silent.
The Math:
Google algorithm favors review volume + recency.
1 review/week vs. 5/week = 30% more local visibility (BrightLocal).
Each extra review drives 1 referral lead ($500 value).
Monthly Loss: 4 missed reviews × $500 = $2,000.
Annual: $24,000.
No system. No consistency. Visibility tanks. Leads dry up.
Leak 3: Unsystematic Referrals
Happy clients don't auto-refer. You chase. Or don't.
The Math:
92% of consumers trust referrals (Nielsen).
Systematic ask: 20% referral rate.
No system: 5%.
Lifetime value $10,000/client.
Monthly Loss: 10 clients × 15% missed × $10,000 × 20% LTV capture = $30,000.
Annual: $360,000.
Total Annual Leak: $426,000. For a $1M business? Game over.
These aren't hypotheticals. They're your P&L.
