A day with Leadwood Growth

From a missed enquiry to a signed-off project

What happens behind the scenes while you're on the tools.

7:50am

A new enquiry comes in while you're on site

You're walking a client round the job and can't pick up. Within seconds the caller gets a text from your business number asking about the project. They reply with photos, and it's in your inbox at your next break.

12:30pm

The extension quote that went quiet

You priced a kitchen extension last week and heard nothing. Follow-up texts go out on day 1, 3 and 7, so the job doesn't drift to whoever chased harder. They stop as soon as the customer replies.

3:15pm

Stage payment requested by text

Stage two is done. You send the stage invoice by text and the customer pays by card, without awkward chasing.

5:45pm

Project signed off, paid and reviewed

The final invoice goes out by text, followed by a friendly review request. When the review lands, a reply is drafted for you.

The system

Five stages. One app on your phone.

Every enquiry moves through the same simple path, and the follow-up happens without you.

1
Capture

Answer first

Every missed call gets an instant text so the project doesn't go to the next builder.

2
Nurture

Follow up

Big quotes get polite chasers until the customer replies.

3
Close

Book & get paid

Book site visits, then send stage and final invoices by text.

4
Reputation

Win reviews

Every finished project gets a Google review request, with replies drafted for you.

5
Repeat

Bring them back

Spring campaigns to past customers fill the busy season early.

The general contractors growth playbook

Five plays that win more building jobs

The exact things we set up for you, and why they work for general contractors.

01

Answer first, even on site

Homeowners planning a project ring several builders. An instant text back starts the conversation with you while you're still running today's job.

Steal these plays
  • Text back every missed call within seconds
  • Ask for the project, location and photos
  • Reply properly from the app at your next break

Want enquiries answered and booked for you? Our Autopilot plan adds an AI assistant that replies 24/7.

Thanks Laura, looks a great project. I'll call you tonight to arrange a site visit.

Follow up every big quote

Extensions and conversions are big decisions, and most are lost to silence rather than price. Automatic, polite chasers keep your quote in the running.

Steal these plays
  • Chase every open quote on day 1, 3 and 7
  • Stop automatically the moment they reply
  • Move them to Booked with one tap

Steal these plays
  • Send stage invoices by text
  • Take card payments without a card machine
  • Automatic reminders on unpaid invoices

Turn finished projects into reviews

For big jobs, customers read reviews closely. Asking every happy customer at sign-off builds the trust that wins the next project.

Steal these plays
  • Ask for a review at sign-off
  • Reply to every review with an AI-drafted message
  • Keep unhappy feedback private so you can fix it

  • Revive last year's quoted-not-started enquiries
  • One-click texts and emails

FAQ

Questions from general contractors

Straight answers. If yours isn't here, ask us on a call.

How do I keep up with enquiries when I'm on site all day?

Every missed call gets an instant text from your business number, so the customer knows you've seen it. Their project details are waiting in one inbox for when you have a minute.

Will it look like it came from me?

Yes. Texts come from your business number and are written in your name, so customers just see a quick reply from you.

Do I keep my own phone number?

Yes. You keep your number exactly as it is. We set up simple call forwarding so any call you miss triggers an instant text back.

Do I need a new website?

No. The Contractors Growth Engine works with the website you already have. Choose the Growth System or Autopilot if you want a new site built and looked after for you.

Is there a contract?

No minimum contract and no setup fee. It's month to month, and you can cancel any time.

Built for your trade
