A Hireline Alternative for the Trades: Own the Funnel, Not Just the Ads

Hireline turns job openings into social-media ad campaigns — Facebook, Instagram, TikTok — on a pay-as-you-go daily budget. The underlying insight is sound: a lot of good field workers aren't browsing job boards, and social reaches them where they scroll. Our own builds use social channels for exactly that reason. Two things to weigh before pointing a daily ad budget at the problem. First, metered spend only works while the meter runs — pause the budget and the candidate flow stops the same day, because the spend rents reach rather than building anything. Second, an ads platform serves every industry at once; an ad that stops a scrolling HVAC tech is a different craft from one that fills restaurant shifts, and the platform doesn't know your trade, your market, or what the shop across town is paying. We build the whole funnel, specifically for trades, once: a job ad positioned against the other offers in your local market, automated SMS screening that answers every applicant within minutes — nights and weekends included — with TCPA consent built in, an interview calendar that books itself, and ready-to-post ads for job boards, Craigslist, and local social channels. Flat $4,000. When it's live, it's yours: no daily budget required to keep owning it. Guaranteed with a number: three qualified candidates in your first 30 days, or you don't pay. If you run a home-service company and want the machine instead of the meter, the application below takes 45 seconds.
