From consult to cannonball: AI for pool companies
A pool is a dream purchase with a construction backlog behind it. Sherpa builds and runs the systems that keep buyers warm for months and projects moving on schedule.
How Pools & Spas actually works
A pool is the longest sale in the yard. Buyers dream for a year, take design consults from two or three builders, arrange financing, and then wait months in a construction backlog gated by permits, weather, and subcontractors. Spring floods the sales pipeline while last year's digs are still open. Behind the builds sits the quieter engine (service routes, openings and closings, and spa customers) that steadies the cash between them.
The Sherpa climb, mapped to pool and spa companies
Four camps, in order. Each one solves the next-most-expensive problem pool and spa companies face. Start where your business leaks most.
Pool buyers research builders for months before the first consult. Trailhead makes you the name they keep seeing: ranking in search and AI answers, a gallery that sells the finished backyard, and reviews from owners two summers in.
