What are the benefits of becoming a partner company?

Our partner companies enjoy a range of benefits:
- major savings in their marketing budgets, as there is no need to advertise all year round
- no commission or fees are paid on the work done
- clients are selected by the tradesperson
- daily e-mails with recent, targeted work requests, matched to the partner company's business and geographical area
What type of clients contact you?

The majority are private individuals and homeowners. Architects, storeholders, companies and public sector organisations also use our services to find contractors.
Why do these clients contact you?

In general, these people contact us because they are struggling on their own to find a contractor or a service provider to do their work.
How do work requests come in?

All the requests for quotes are taken via detailed web forms, with specific and targeted questions for each job type. The forms are available on www.ServiceMagic.co.uk and www.123GetAQuote.co.uk.
Is there a quality control system for the work requests you take?

Our aim is to give you the best possible results. We provide a range of manual and automated filtering processes to ensure that no fraudulent requests are forwarded to you and between 10 and 20% are withdrawn.
How many work requests will I receive each day?

Obviously, the number of requests will depend on your trade and the geographical area that you work in. You can always sign up for free initially to receive example requests to get a sense for the types of leads that we can provide. In just a few days you will have a good idea of the number and type of requests you are likely to receive.
How many jobs will I get?

Clearly, our service cannot ensure that you will end up working on 100% of the jobs you quote for. Your results will depend on how you process the requests for quotes. Experience is fairly varied but our partner companies generally manage to get between 5% and 15% of the jobs they provide a quote for.
Am I free to contact the clients myself?

Once you have ordered their details, you are free to contact clients as soon and as often as you want. We take no commission on the work you do.
There is a one off activation fee of £90 (ex. VAT)
How many companies receive the work requests?

We always limit competition to no more than 4 contractors.
Why do you limit the number of companies that can buy a single request?

There are two reasons for this policy. Firstly, we want to prevent the client being swamped with proposals. Secondly, we want to ensure that tradespeople can get work without having to compete against too many other contractors.
Do you take a commission on my work?

We do not take any commission on the work done.
