One login for the work between the lead and the job
Most contractors don't lose jobs on price. They lose them in the gap between someone reaching out and someone answering. LeadGen is built for that gap.

Lead Follow-Up and CRMEvery lead in one list, with follow-up that runs on its own.How LeadGen handles a new lead
The lead comes in
A call, a form, a web chat or a text. It doesn't matter which door they use.
It lands in one place
The contact is saved in your CRM and the conversation shows up in one inbox, on your desk or in the mobile app.
Follow-up goes out
A missed call gets a text back. A new lead gets the follow-up you set up, so nobody waits on you to remember.
The job turns into a review
When the work is done, a review request goes out by text, and the reply lands in the same inbox.
You decide what the messages say. We can also set all of it up for you on the Hands Off plan.
What is a CRM for contractors?
A CRM for contractors is software that keeps every customer and lead in one list, with the calls, texts and notes attached to each name. CRM stands for customer relationship management. For a contractor it replaces the notebook on the dash, the texts on a personal phone and the sticky notes in the office.
LeadGen adds the follow-up on top of the list. A missed call gets a text back, a new lead gets a message, and a finished job gets a review request. The record of all of it sits under the customer's name.
Why do contractors lose leads they already paid for?
The lead came in while nobody could answer it. You were on a roof, under a sink or driving between jobs, the call went to voicemail, and the homeowner dialed the next company on the list.
Forms are the same story. A request sent at 8 p.m. that gets a call the next afternoon has often been booked by someone else. And an estimate that never gets a second call is a job you priced for free.
None of that is a marketing problem. The ad worked and the phone rang. What was missing was an answer, and that is the part software can cover while your hands are full.

Three places leads go missing
How do reviews help a contractor get found?
Google says local results are based mainly on relevance, distance and prominence, and that more reviews and positive ratings can improve a business's local ranking. You can't move your shop closer to the customer. You can ask every happy customer for a review.
Most never leave one because nobody asked at the right moment. LeadGen sends the request by text when the job is done, with a link straight to the review form, and lets you reply from the same inbox. See review management for how it works.

Software set up around how the trades get leads
LeadGen is built for contractors and local service businesses, not for sales teams in an office. The defaults assume the owner is on a job when the phone rings and reads messages between stops.
If you don't want to build the automations yourself, we do it for you. Done-for-you setup covers lead funnels, surveys, automations and email campaigns. More about LeadGen.
