Trying a new lead source usually means spending money before you know if it works. You sign up, pay for leads or a plan, and wait to see whether any of it turns into real jobs. If it doesn't, that money is just the cost of finding out.
Jobiteer is built so that finding out costs less. Here's what limits your risk while you're deciding whether it's worth your time.
Start with free credits
New contractor accounts start with free credits, and you get a fresh allotment each month after that. Free credits are spent before any credits you buy, so you can unlock real jobs and talk to real homeowners before you've paid anything.
You can also browse the job board as much as you want before you unlock anything. Reading job posts, photos, and locations is free, so you can see what kind of work is being posted in your area before you decide whether to spend a single credit.
No commitment to walk away from
There's no subscription and no contract. If you decide to buy credits, they come in one-time packs, and nothing renews automatically. If Jobiteer turns out not to be a fit, you simply stop using it. There's nothing to cancel.
And if you do buy a pack and get busy with other work, purchased credits never expire. They'll still be there if you come back later.
Silent leads don't cost you
The most common way a lead goes bad is a homeowner who never responds. On Jobiteer, that case is covered automatically. If you unlock a job and the homeowner never replies to you and doesn't hire you, your credits come back once the job closes. There's no ticket to file and no proof to submit.
To be clear about what that does and doesn't cover:
- Covered: the homeowner never sends you a single message and doesn't hire you.
- Not covered: the homeowner replies, even briefly, but the job doesn't work out. At that point you had a real conversation, so the credits stay spent.
So it's not a guarantee that every unlock pays off. It means the most frustrating kind of dead lead, the one where nobody ever answers, doesn't count against you while you're testing.
How to run a fair test
If you're trying Jobiteer alongside other lead sources, a few habits will give you a clearer read on whether it's working:
- Fill out your profile. Your specialties, service area, and bio help homeowners who find you in the contractor directory.
- Be selective. Unlock jobs that genuinely fit your trade and area, the same way you'd judge any lead.
- Use your free credits first. See what kinds of conversations they lead to before deciding whether to buy more.
- Check your transaction history. Every unlock and refund is recorded, so you can see exactly what you've spent and what came back.
Any new lead source takes some time and effort to evaluate. Jobiteer just keeps the cost of that evaluation low.
