    Good Morning ThePowerofNow,


    I understand your frustration. Being in the junk removal business on Thumbtack for 5+ years has taught me a lot about lead generation and ROI. The likelihood of you getting refunds on Thumbtack is going to be super low. They’ll only refund in certain circumstances; many of which involve the lead not fitting your preferences. In order reduce your spending and increase your ROI I would make the following adjustments:

    1.) increase your prices. Focus on clients who are looking for value and want a professional experience. Most of the companies who bottom feed on cheap leads fizzle out.
    2.) Display your prices. This can deter customers who are just price shopping.

    3.) Keep doing what your doing in regards to following up. I would suggest calling the leads as well. This allows the customer to hear your level of professionalism and puts a warm personalized touch on what can ultimately be a cold “numbers experience “

    Hope this helps !
