The worked math: a $40 shared lead at a 4% close rate is about $1,000 in lead spend per new customer, for one homeowner job. One management-company account is worth $50–150K over 3–4 years. Same effort, two very different returns. The metric that matters is cost per closed client, not price per lead.

Choose shared marketplaces if…

  • You want homeowner emergency volume, now
  • Your business is built on one-off resi jobs
  • You can win on speed-to-lead and price

Choose FieldClients if…

  • You want B2B accounts with recurring work
  • You want a dated reason to call before you pick up the phone
  • You measure cost per closed client, not per lead

Questions

Are Angi / HomeAdvisor leads worth it?

For homeowner emergency demand, they can be, the need is real and immediate. The catch is the model: the same request is sold to several contractors, so you pay to compete on speed and price for a one-off job. For B2B accounts with lifetime value, the math rarely works.

What’s the real cost per closed client?

Take a $40 shared lead at a 4% close rate: that’s roughly $1,000 in lead spend per new customer, for a single homeowner job. Now compare one management-company account worth $50–150K over three to four years. The per-client cost is the number that matters, not the per-lead price.

Should I use both?

Plenty of companies do, shared marketplaces for resi volume, signal-based sourcing for commercial accounts. They feed two different sides of the business. On the account side you call on a dated record, often before the owner has asked anyone for a quote.
