The network

A closed network: we choose them, we score them, we assign the work.

Closed means nobody joins by signing up, and nobody bids for your job. Every expert is approved before they are in, and the work is handed out on measured performance.

Nobody bids and nobody races. The best-scored expert who covers that address is offered the job exclusively, with a window to accept. If they pass, it cascades to the next. That is why response times hold up — taking the offer, or passing quickly, is itself scored.

Three models

You are not choosing a vendor. You are choosing what happens to your customer.

Most platforms either sell the request as a lead, or post it and let pros race to claim it. Both are legitimate businesses — but you are the one who sent your customer there, and neither model chooses who turns up.

Model 1Sold to several pros
Model 2First to tap wins
How we do itOffered exclusively, on score
1The request
Sold as a lead

Their details enter a lead pool and are sold to several pros — often four to six.

Posted to everyone

Every pro in the area sees it at once and races to claim it.

Offered to one

Scored against the pros who cover that address, then offered exclusively to the best fit.

2Who gets it
Whoever pays

The pros who bought the lead. Buying it is the qualification.

Whoever is fastest

First tap wins — which rewards whoever happens to be idle, not whoever is best.

Whoever ranks

Merit and fit. Being free at 2pm is not a qualification.

3First contact
Four to six calls

Everyone who bought the lead calls, texts and emails.

One, eventually

Whoever won the race. If nobody claims it, it just sits.

One confirmed expert

One name, one number, one arrival window, on a clock. If they pass, it cascades immediately.

4The price
Estimates, then revisions

Quotes vary by pro, and the number often moves once someone is in the room.

Set, pro self-selected

The price may be fixed, but who turns up was decided by reflexes.

Fixed, before they buy

Quoted against their address at the point of purchase.

5Who is accountable
The pro they picked

The platform introduced them. A dispute is with a stranger.

The pro who claimed

The platform did not choose them either — it just held the door.

Us

We chose the expert, so the outcome is ours. We fix it, and it moves their score.

6Your customer, after
Now the pro's lead

Their details sit with everyone who bought them.

Shared with the claimer

Handed over on claim, before anyone has judged the fit.

Still yours

Never pooled, never sold on. The one assigned expert and your customer get each other's details at match — which most nationwide outfits will not do.

Net effect

A bad week of phone calls, and they remember who sent them.

Whoever was free, not whoever was good.

One price, one expert, one date — and they remember who sent them.

All three work — for different buyers. Lead generation and claims boards are built for the contractor looking for work. Exclusive assignment is built for the brand whose name is on the box: it is the only one of the three where somebody chose the expert on merit and is answerable for the result. Nobody is named here on purpose — the model is the argument, and naming a competitor puts their brand on your page.
