Buying a Fireplace is Difficult and Confusing
Confusing Websites
Most websites confuse customers with insider language and fail to explain what products will actually work.
Estimates Take Too Long
Estimates can take weeks to turnaround and by that point customers have already moved on.
No Follow-Up
Thousands of customers are left hanging that would buy if the company would only call them back.
WhyFire makes it easy to understand which options will work for your customer and exactly what the project will cost—in seconds.
You Can Take Control of Your Business
Empower Your Team
In a matter of days, new team members can help a customer understand which options will work in their space—and provide an estimate for their project.
Connect With Buyers
No one wants to waste time with customers who aren’t serious. WhyFire qualifies your customers and delivers them to you ready to buy.
Sell More Fireplaces
While everyone else is confusing customers out of buying, WhyFire simplifies the entire process—making your company the easiest to do business with.

“I never would have known that prime fireplace shopping hours are 8pm-11pm until I started using WhyFire. Nearly every night, I have estimates pulled and appointments booked through my website. It serves my customers when I’m unable to.”
-Ryann Blake (Owner, Chimney Techniques)

What Is WhyFire?
Most companies have a website that’s leaking money–but they don’t know what to do about it. We supercharge your website to generate leads (and connect you with the people who want to buy), so your business can win more sales.
We know how hard it is to learn to navigate the digital marketing space when the whirlwind of your business takes up every waking minute. WhyFire eliminates the confusion and gives you a path so that your is finally working for you, not wasting marketing dollars.
WhyFire.com was founded by Tim Reed in Portland, OR. He has worked with fireplaces, gas inserts and stoves for over a decade and has helped thousands of clients find the right fireplaces for their homes. The WhyFire framework has taken his years of industry experience and turned it into a simple, online platform to help clients with their projects. Tim is regarded as a leading thinker in the hearth industry and has employed the WhyFire framework in his own team with great success. The reason being is that it comes from years of working with real people on real projects and getting them real results.
WhyFire will helps educate customers on what is needed for their fireplace installation through simple videos in their video content library. After that, they can receive a customized estimate by simply entering in some basic measurements of their home and answering a few related questions. From there, WhyFire sets customers up to schedule an in-home appointment for their dealer to come out, answer any remaining questions and take a deposit for installation. WhyFire makes it simple for your website to take control and start working for you.
WhyFire makes it simpler than you think to give customers exactly what they are looking for on your website. In about 5 minutes they understand which fireplaces will work for their home, have an customized estimate emailed to them (and you), and book an in-home appointment with one of your team members. WhyFire also uses automated email follow up to nurture customers through every stage of the journey and ensure that nothing slips through the cracks.
This is the innovation you’ve been looking for…
What’s My Investment?
How many marketing dollars are you wasting by sending people to a website that doesn’t help them? How many customers hit the back button because they can’t get an estimate online? How many customers want to buy from you and don’t because they can’t schedule an in-home visit online? How many leads buy elsewhere because no one is following up with them? Your website might be leaking thousands of customers every year.
