Re: Contractorleads.com
That's not a leads site, that's a guy who bought a domain name and puts links on it for money.
He's just waiting for a payoff from some company for the name.

Re: Contractorleads.com
I have sign up for a free viewing of their leads in NJ and they send me leads for NY, conn, and Nj and none of them have enticed me to join their network. I currently pay $40 a month for bidclerk and they have large jobs that look enticing and I mean BIG, but if you are a small contractor and are going for smaller jobs, most of those jobs seem to be going to the low ballers, and I do mean LOW. I have gotten a few jobs through Bidclerk, but I am still questioning whether I will be with them much longer.

Re: Contractorleads.com

Re: Contractorleads.com
I called them today to find more about their company, here is what I came up with:
Cost per lead $34.00, this number is based on my categories and size of my market area. You can set a budget not less than $150.00 per month, which is about 4 leads The customer must fill out a lengthy survey. Which is good because it hill help weed out tire kickers Each customer is verified by a phone call and E-mail verification. AWWSOME! Costumer must own home. Cons No contract Can’t find these guys on a simple keyword searches, if I can’t find them, how is a costumer is going to find them. The salesman would not tell me how and where their company advertises, Scary. He also told me their company uses several affiliate companies to help generate leads, but would not tell me all of thecompany’s names. He told me the main companys name is estimatemagic.com Combined with the other cons this could be a fatal mixture! The salesman is going to call me back with more info in regards to my cons Overall this company has potential, depending on who it sleeps with? Last edited by festerized; 01-19-2010 at 11:28 AM. |

Re: Contractorleads.com
I did some research; this company generates its leads thru this company
Copeac Affiliate Program, which is a pay per Click Company. |

Re: Contractorleads.com
Just like the Iron Madien song goes,....
Run to the hills..... Run for your life!!! These guys suck. Go onto www.ripoffreport.com or www.my3cents.com and review the negative comments. Says it all for me right there.

Re: Contractorleads.com
Just got off the phone with sales rep again
He told me it’s a trade secrete on how they generate their leads, LOL He also told me that their company is new to the east coast. I looked them up in California; they seem to be a window company? Handyhands couldn’t find them in either site? |

Re: Contractorleads.com
I don't care for the tone you are using, especially when you are a new member digging up 3 year old DEAD threads and mouthing off to the site admin. I would hazard to bet that in three years, exactly what Nathan states just might have happened.

Re: Contractorleads.comQuote:
Back in 2007 it was a parked page where someone was looking to sell the domain. Just as I said in my post someone has since purchased the domain and made a site from it. You can see how the domain looked even in 2008 here: http://web.archive.org/web/200805121...ctorleads.com/ Check you facts.
