Heed my warning
Heed my warning. This experience felt misleading and financially exploitative. I hemorrhaged money to maintain leads/inquiries. If a contractor requests a refund for a lead that is clearly not qualified as a lead, they simply redirect by saying, “If you don’t like the prices, you can lower the prices in your services section.” Yes. You can. But when you do that, you get way less exposure and leads (sometimes zero). When you increase the amount per lead, you get mega number of leads but 90% are price shopping and GHOST the contractor. The clients reach out to multiple contractors at once (and each contractor is forced to pay for that lead). My most recent lead was $60, but the lead literally stated, “Not interested, not in our budget.” That’s not even a lead, they weren’t interested. So I inquired about a refund but instead got denied and told “lower your prices if price is a concern.” Respectfully sir… mam… this was never a lead to begin with as they weren’t even interested! That was the final straw. I assure you there are many many many more unfortunate examples. “Support” is NOT supportive and their entire platform is misleading. Unless you want to bleed money for.. vibes… I do not recommend this platform.
