In the world of home services, visibility is everything. Independent contractors know this all too well. Whether you’re a painter in Spokane, an electrician in Everett, or a landscaper in Bellevue, your ability to get hired often depends not just on your skills—but on where and how you’re being found.
For many, that means turning to popular lead-generation platforms like Thumbtack, Angi, HomeAdvisor, and others. At first glance, these platforms promise access to a stream of job opportunities. But beneath the surface, a different reality unfolds.
The Problem with Traditional Lead Platforms
Many contractors sign up for lead platforms expecting a simple transaction—you pay for access to jobs, and those jobs lead to work. But the truth is rarely that linear. These systems are built around a business model that prioritizes profit over fairness.
- You might pay $20–$100 just to view a lead—with no guarantee the homeowner will respond.
- Leads are sold to multiple contractors, creating a bidding war.
- Algorithms reward spend, not skill or proximity.
The result? Many contractors spend more time chasing leads than doing the work they’re proud of.
Where the Model Breaks Down
- Pay-to-play: You pay upfront or monthly just to compete.
- Shared leads: One job can go to 4–10 contractors at once.
- No control: You don’t know who else is bidding—or if the lead is real.
- Low-quality leads: Many are unresponsive or cold.
- Opaque rankings: Visibility depends on ad spend, not merit.
Enter Qiggz: A New Way to Get Hired
Qiggz was built on one principle: independent contractors deserve a fair shot. No fees, no subscriptions, no gimmicks. Just real, local opportunities.
Here’s how it works:
- Homeowners post jobs publicly on the Qiggz app.
- Contractors browse and apply directly—no cost involved.
- Homeowners can only reach out to 5 contractors per day, keeping competition reasonable.
This model removes bidding wars, fees, and favoritism. It values merit, distance, and trust—helping you build your business the right way.
