Exclusive Canberra Builder Territory

$250/month

🎉 First month free · cancel anytime · no contracts

Become Canberra's exclusive Builder. Every qualifying lead in this territory is yours.

$250/month covers everything. No per-lead fees. No setup fees. No contracts. No HiPages-style "subscription plus pay-per-result" double-dip. The territory is yours — every lead included, unlimited, full stop.

Two compounding benefits on top

✓ Featured on the relevant cost guide. Your business gets a tap-to-call button on the Google-ranked consumer page for Canberra builder — most inquiries arrive as direct phone calls, not form fills.
✓ A link back to your own website. A backlink from our "builder canberra" cost-guide page. Where any page ranks on Google can change over time, so we don't guarantee a first-page ranking or any particular SEO result.

Two ways to work with us

Pick your model.
Switch any time.

Some tradies want every lead in their area, locked in. Others want to pick and choose. We support both.

Across Canberra, building enquiries come from extensions and second-storey additions on the large blocks of the inner north and south as families stay put and knock-down rebuilds of ex-government housing on premium inner-suburb land — as the exclusive territory holder every one of them routes to you.

Built for Australian tradies

Why Canberra builders choose exclusive.

Every lead pre-screened

Every Canberra lead is SMS-verified for job type (home extension, second-storey addition, knock-down rebuild), timeline, and budget — so every enquiry arrives flagged and ready to quote.

Australian-owned, independent data

Cross-referenced against 90+ Australian pricing sources. Not a US lead aggregator wearing AU branding.

No long-term lock-in

Pay-per-lead has zero commitment. Exclusive is month-to-month with the first one free. Walk anytime.

Stripe-secured payments

Bank-grade security, automated invoicing, 1-tap accept. No chasing payment, no chargebacks.

Run the numbers

Why $250/month exclusive beats per-lead aggregators
for Canberra builders.

Most aggregators (HiPages, ServiceSeeking, Oneflare) charge a monthly fee PLUS per-lead. Each lead goes to 4-5 tradies racing to call first. Here's the actual math for a Canberra builder after the same 5 verified leads.

Lead aggregators in Australia typically charge a base subscription ($150-$300/month) plus $50-$100 per "connection" or shared lead. Every lead gets sent to 4-5 tradies simultaneously, so you're racing to call first — and bidding against unknown competitors after that. Many leads close with someone other than you, despite the fact you paid for them.

Canberra building jobs run $15,000-$350,000. A single booked job would typically more than cover a month's $250 territory fee — but how many enquiries turn into booked work depends on you and on demand in your area, so we can't promise a set number of jobs or any income. Your first month is free, so you can see what comes through before you pay anything.

That's why we offer first month FREE on exclusive territory. Card details captured securely via Stripe at sign-up — no charge for 30 days. Cancel anytime in the first month and never get billed. After 30 days, $250/month, billed automatically. Walk anytime after with no penalty.

Common questions

Everything you'd want to ask.

How many building leads come through in Canberra?

Canberra's extension and rebuild market is steady and well-funded, and the building cost guide draws consistent enquiries from the inner suburbs out to Gungahlin and Tuggeranong. As the exclusive holder, nothing in the ACT passes you by.

Are building leads exclusive in Canberra?

On the territory model, yes - one builder holds all of Canberra and every enquiry from the Canberra building cost guide routes to them alone. Pay-per-lead is open until the territory is locked.

How are Canberra building leads qualified?

Every lead is SMS-verified by Sam before dispatch - project type, suburb and timeline - so a Woden second-storey addition reaches you as a real, defined job.

What's the difference between pay-per-lead and exclusive?

Pay-per-lead means you see verified leads as they come in and choose which to accept — from $25 each. Multiple tradies in your area receive the same lead. Exclusive territory means YOU are the only tradie we route from your trade and city — every verified lead comes to you, plus you're listed on the cost guide page that ranks on Google for your trade in that area.

How is the lead qualified?

When a homeowner submits a quote request, our SMS bot Sam asks a few questions: what's the job, when do you need it done, what's your suburb, what's your budget. Once the homeowner confirms by replying YES, we count it as verified and route it to you. Most tyre-kickers drop off in the qualification step.

What happens during my free month on exclusive?

Same as a paying month — you get every verified lead in your trade and city, listed on the cost guide page, full access. After 30 days we ask if you want to continue. If yes, $250/month rolling. If no, cancel before day 31 and you'll never be charged.

What if my territory has low lead volume?

We're transparent about volume per territory before you sign up. We'll show you how many leads that page has generated in the last 30 and 90 days, plus our Google ranking position. If volume is too low to justify $250/month, we'll tell you to start with pay-per-lead instead.

Can I switch from pay-per-lead to exclusive later?

Yes — many tradies do exactly this. Start with pay-per-lead to test the leads, then upgrade to exclusive once you've proven the volume works for your business. Just let us know.

Can I have exclusive in multiple trades or cities?

Yes. Each combination is a separate territory at $250/month. Some tradies cover one specialty in two cities, others cover three trades in one city. You only pay for the territories you hold.

What trades and areas do you cover?

36 trades across 14 Australian cities and growing — all major capitals plus Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong, Geelong, Hobart, Townsville, Cairns, Launceston, Central Coast. Specialty trades (builder, plumber, kitchen reno, bathroom reno, fencing) tend to have the most active territories.
