Get the project details before the visit.
Ask for the service address, property owner or authorized contact, and a clear description of the requested work. Equipment photos and model details help prepare a visit. Confirm system capacity through the electrician's assessment.
Check the original inquiry date, service area and available project details. Confirm who can approve the work and the customer's preferred contact time.
Turn your close rate into a lead budget.
Include survey time, cable routes, access and coordination in the sales budget. Keep small service calls separate from panel, charger and rewiring projects when measuring cost per paid job.
Compare 10%, 20% and 30% lead-to-paid-job conversion in your budget. At $65 per lead, acquisition costs are $650, $325 and about $217 per paid job. Add estimating and follow-up costs to get the full acquisition cost.
| Budget scenario | Paid jobs per 100 leads | Lead cost per paid job at $65/lead |
|---|---|---|
| 10% close rate | 10 | $650 |
| 20% close rate | 20 | $325 |
| 30% close rate | 30 | $217 |
Make the first conversation useful.
Use the first conversation to establish scope and arrange an appropriate assessment. For charger work, discuss where the car parks and how the cable route reaches the panel. For renovations, coordinate the estimate with the customer's builder and room schedule.
Review the opportunity. Then take the next step.
Check the current price, original intent age and ownership category in Matagi before buying. Match the opportunity to your service area, preferred work and available capacity.
Normal and Value leads have different purchase terms. Review prior access and the refund policy, then keep contact, appointment, quote and paid-job outcomes in your records.
