What contractors don't tell you about lead-gen sites
You type your zip code into a "free quote" site. Three contractors call you within an hour. Feels efficient. It is not.
How it actually works
Those lead-gen sites sell your contact info to 3-5 contractors. Each pays $80-200 per shared lead. That cost goes into your estimate. Every time.
What that does to your price
A $15,000 roof job from a lead-gen referral is closer to $17,000 by the time the contractor recovers the lead cost.
What we do instead
We grow on referrals. Every referred customer is a permanent fix to the lead-gen tax.
Next time, ask: "How did this contractor find out about my project?" If the answer is a lead-gen site, you already know who is paying.
