Appliance repair service calls

| Lead type | Price range (USD) | What the price covers |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Exclusive repair call | $22–$85 | Confirm appliance, fault, location and service eligibility |

## Choose the work your team wants to win.

Use the customer's requested work to assess fit, then confirm the details during follow-up.

| Work type | Details to establish |
| --- | --- |
| Refrigerators | Make, model, symptoms and access |
| Washers and dryers | Unit type, reported issue, installation and location |
| Ovens and cooktops | Fuel or power type, model and reported fault |
| Dishwashers | Model, symptoms, built-in access and prior work |

## Get the project details before the visit.

Collect the appliance type, brand, model if available and fault description. Confirm the service address and who authorizes the visit. Ask whether the request is for a repair, installation or warranty-provider service.

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.

Diagnostic visits, repeat trips and parts sourcing affect contribution. Track paid repairs separately from diagnostic-only visits. Keep your acquisition budget aligned with the appliance types you can efficiently service.

Compare 10%, 20% and 30% lead-to-paid-job conversion in your budget. At $50 per lead, acquisition costs are $500, $250 and about $167 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 $50/lead |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 10% close rate | 10 | $500 |
| 20% close rate | 20 | $250 |
| 30% close rate | 30 | $167 |

## Make the first conversation useful.

Explain the diagnostic visit and pricing process. Confirm the brands and appliance types your technician services. Use the model details to prepare for likely parts and access requirements.

## 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.
