What should I do after I receive a lead?
Most lead generation services tend to work the same way. They’ll find customers who are interested in the services you provide and collect some data points on the job. For example, you'll likely want to know 1) how many windows are they looking to replace, 2) where they live, 3) and how soon they would like the job completed. The lead generation company will send the lead information to you via email or text message in most cases. Now, the ball is in your court. You’ll want to contact those leads as soon as possible. Strike while the iron is hot! If you wait too long, you could lose them to another window replacement company.

What should I expect to pay for window replacement leads?
In most cases, window replacement leads cost between $18 and $55. That may sound like a lot, but you have to keep in mind the potential profit you could make on just one job. For example, a $50 lead could land you a $15,000 job. Not too shabby, right? When bidding new jobs, build the cost of your lead generation efforts into each estimate. If you're still a little bit worried about the cost, think about setting a monthly budget for leads. Once you've maxed out your budget, you won't receive anymore until the next month or billing cycle.
