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.

Sydney’s painting job-value spread is the largest in Australia — eastern-suburbs harbour-view exteriors frequently exceed $35,000 while standard outer-Sydney interior work runs $5,000–$10,000. Exclusive territory captures the full spread; pay-per-lead suits specialists.

How it works

From Sydney homeowner search
to your phone in minutes.

Sydney painting leads cluster across three bands: harbourside premium-spec exteriors with views as colour-selection driver, inner-east coastal salt-zone work, and outer-Sydney standard residential interior and exterior repaints.

Customer searches Google

Sydney homeowner Googles "painter cost Sydney" and lands on our Sydney painting cost guide page.

Sam qualifies them

Our SMS bot Sam verifies the Sydney job — scope, suburb, timeline, budget. Real Sydney homeowner, real painting job.

Built for Australian tradies

Why Sydney painters choose exclusive.

Every lead pre-screened

Every Sydney lead is SMS-verified for property type (apartment, terrace, harbourside, freestanding), salt-exposure zone, and scope — so $40k harbourside exteriors and $8k Penrith standard interiors arrive flagged differently before site visit.

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 Sydney painters.

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 Sydney painter after the same 5 verified leads.

Sydney Painting Lead Cost Comparison: WTD Exclusive vs Aggregators Visual comparison showing $250 per month exclusive territory pricing for Sydney painting leads versus $600 plus per month effective cost from per-lead aggregators like HiPages and ServiceSeeking for similar lead volume. WTD EXCLUSIVE Painting · Sydney $250 /month FIRST MONTH FREE Sole painter — every lead, just for you SMS-verified scope, suburb, budget No bidding war — they call you Walk anytime — no contract vs PER-LEAD AGGREGATORS HiPages, ServiceSeeking, Oneflare $600+ effective /month* $200/mo subscription + $80 per shared lead Each lead shared 4-5× — race to call Bidding war on price + speed Wasted time on lost leads you paid for Annual contracts, lock-in periods * Effective cost: $200 base + 5 shared leads × $80, typical of major Australian aggregators.

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.

Sydney painting jobs run $2,000–$15,000. ONE booked job covers the WTD territory fee 100× over. Three or four booked painting jobs and you've added $6,000–$45,000+ in revenue from a $250/month investment — with the first month free.

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.

Why are Sydney harbourside exterior paint jobs unusually high-margin?
Property values in Mosman, Vaucluse, and Bellevue Hill drive paint-spend ratios that wouldn’t be financially rational elsewhere — the home-value-to-paint-spend math justifies $35k+ on view-side exteriors with premium-tier coatings. Conversion rates run high once homeowners reach the right specialist.
How many painting leads come from Sydney each month?
Active Sydney painting territories typically receive 3–15 verified leads per month — varying with season (winter slower, spring/summer peak). We share live volume data from your specific area before you commit, so you know what to expect.
Why are Sydney painting leads worth more than other trades?
Sydney painting jobs run $2,000–$15,000+, much higher than the average trade lead. Each lead is SMS-verified for scope, suburb, timeline, and budget — so the homeowners you receive are real Sydney property-owners with active painting projects, ready to engage.
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 (electrician, plumber, kitchen reno, bathroom reno, fencing) tend to have the most active territories.
