## Clients pay weeks or months after the ad.

The timing gap for a service business is the time between paying for ads and getting paid by new clients.

Example: a $25,000 ad bill

 - **Platform ROAS:** Counts form fills and booked calls as they happen
- **Cash ROAS:** 3x, once $75,000 of client payments lands by day 90

A campaign can look strong in the platform report and weak in the bank.

| Financial services | The commission or fee settles once the mortgage funds or the policy binds. | 30 to 90 days |
| Law firms | Contingency fees arrive at settlement, while retainers come sooner and in stages. | 12 to 24 months |
| Home services | The homeowner or financier pays once the install or job is complete. | 60 to 90 days |
| Health and wellness | Revenue arrives visit by visit across a course of treatment. | 3 to 12 months |
| Education and coaching | Students pay installments over the length of their program, less refunds. | 6 to 12 months |

## Common questions

Have another question? [Contact us](/contact-us).
      What types of service businesses is Flyweel for?
Flyweel is for service businesses that sell through a pipeline, where a lead becomes a quote, consult, job or case before it becomes revenue. That includes mortgage brokers, insurance agencies, law firms, solar and HVAC contractors, clinics, med spas, coaches and bootcamps.
    Is Performance Capital available outside the US?
No. Performance Capital and Flyweel cards are open to US businesses only today. The reporting side, including the unified ad view, reconciliation and the AI agent, works in any country. Tell us your country at signup so we know where to launch next.
    What is the difference between platform ROAS and cash ROAS?
Platform ROAS is the return Meta or Google reports from conversions it tracks, like form fills. Cash ROAS is paid revenue divided by ad spend. For a service business, the two can differ a lot, because many tracked conversions never become paying clients.
    How do I track cost per closed deal across Meta and Google?
Connect your Meta and Google ad accounts, then add closed deals from Pipedrive or a CSV upload. Flyweel divides spend by closed deals for each campaign and shows both platforms in one view. The AI agent can also answer it in plain language.
    Which CRMs and ad platforms does Flyweel connect to?
Flyweel connects to Meta, Google Ads and TikTok for spend, Pipedrive for deals, and Xero or QuickBooks for your books. HubSpot and Salesforce are next on the roadmap. For a job system, intake tool or payment processor, upload a CSV instead.
    Is Flyweel free for service businesses?
Yes. Starter is free, with no credit card needed, and includes AdGrid, the AI agent and reconciliation. Growth is $99 a month. Put $25k a month on Flyweel cards and the platform is $0, with unlimited ad accounts. Early adopters get their first 3 months at $0 with no minimum spend.
