## What do siding & gutter leads cost?

Siding & gutter leads: $35–$175 for exclusive project inquiries. All amounts are in US dollars.

Exterior inquiries separated by service

| Lead type | Price range (USD) | What the price covers |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Siding inquiry | $65–$175 | Cladding work |
| Gutter inquiry | $35–$95 | Rainwater system work |

## 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 |
| --- | --- |
| Siding replacement | Existing material, elevations, approximate area and finish preference |
| Siding repairs | Affected sections, damage description, material match and access |
| Gutter installation | Approximate runs, building height, downspouts and discharge locations |
| Guards and maintenance | Existing gutter condition, access, debris problem and requested service |

## Get the project details before the visit.

Identify the requested system first. For siding, ask about material and extent of replacement. For gutters, record the building height and the sections involved. Confirm the decision-maker and any related fascia, soffit or trim work.

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.

Measure the time needed for access, removal, preparation and disposal. A wider exterior project can justify a larger acquisition budget, but only when the additional work is actually in the agreed scope.

Compare 10%, 20% and 30% lead-to-paid-job conversion in your budget. At $100 per lead, acquisition costs are $1,000, $500 and about $333 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 $100/lead |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 10% close rate | 10 | $1,000 |
| 20% close rate | 20 | $500 |
| 30% close rate | 30 | $333 |

## Make the first conversation useful.

Arrange a visit to measure the elevations or gutter runs. Confirm where new work meets existing materials. Present the base scope clearly, with related trim or drainage work priced as explicit additions.

## 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.

## Questions

### How much do siding & gutter leads cost?

Siding & gutter leads: $35–$175 for exclusive project inquiries. Exterior inquiries separated by service. Matagi shows the current price on each opportunity.

### Should siding and gutter requests share one budget?

Track them separately. Their project sizes, materials and installation time differ. Combine them only when one customer has requested both as a single project.

### What separates gutter replacement from cleaning?

Replacement changes the gutter system or sections of it. Cleaning removes debris from existing gutters. Confirm the requested service before buying or scheduling.

### Which details help qualify siding work?

Material, affected elevations, repair versus replacement, approximate area, property height, ownership and desired timing.

### How do I calculate my lead close rate?

Divide paid jobs by purchased leads from the same intake period, then multiply by 100. Track appointments and quotes separately, and allow enough time for the jobs to close.
