They will give you a 'lead' but it will cost £10 per time.

Don't waste your time or money with them.

I to have been contacted by them and asked some questions, this was the reply
Hi



Thank you for your enquiry, Below is the breakdown of the service.



We are a tailored marketing solution for your company. We send all the consumer contact details to you and we will also send your contact details to the client so they know who will be contacting them.



Higher close rates - Our members are presented to consumers in real time and as a result, you win more jobs. Internet users expect an instantaneous response - which is exactly what our automatic connection gives them. You instantly receive the consumer's contact information, increasing your chances of winning the business.

A steady consistent flow of leads with more predictable monthly budgeting - Controlling how many leads come to you each month allows you to predict and budget your marketing expenses. This means never having to worry about exceeding your spending limits - you know exactly what to expect and you can pause your lead flow at any time.

You tell us how many work requests you want to receive every month, targeted to the type of work you want to be doing and the areas you would like to work in.



You automatically receive these leads with all the details of the project and contact information for the customer. With this way of receiving work requests, you get connected with consumers instantly leading to more work by SMS and Email.



We want to help you find more work and if you aren’t completely satisfied with our service you can part ways at any time, as there is no long-term commitment and cancellation fees to pay.



So in brief this is what we offer you:



1) You tell us what areas you want to work in

2) You determine a marketing budget for yourself

3) We then send you ONLY the type of work you would bid on

4) Each Work Request costs £5, £9, £12, £19 or £24 and we bill you weekly and provide you with a monthly statement so you know exactly how much you are spending of your budget





Christmas special:



From the 14th November it’s our Christmas special NO ACTIVATION FEE but for a limited time only.

I hope this information helped and I look forward to hearing from you soon to start working together

Not sure if it's a scam or not. I did a bogus work request that was tailor made to services I supply.
and I did receive an email offering me the chance to quote for the job.
The thing is it's a lead you still need to be getting the contract and if some of the leads are bogus your not going to get them but your are paying for the lead.
They have offered me £10 trial might be worth a punt :unsure:
