Directors at Leads2Trade, the company behind the Compare Companies and Trusted Local Suppliers network of consumer facing sites, say that leads volumes are significantly up compared to the same period last year.
,Leads2Trade generates ‘double-qualified’ home improvement leads via its online network of Trusted Local Supplier sites – a portfolio of sites where homeowners register to find tradesman to carry out work such as conservatory, solar and double glazing installations.
,Director Andy Royle (pictured) says the company has built on a ‘record start’ to the year, which saw it sell 657 double qualified leads to its members, on its first day back.
,For quarter one and quarter two of 2014, Leads2trade has seen lead volumes increase by 15%, with its members reportedly closing more sales as a result.
,Andy says the majority of leads have been for PVC-U double glazing, conservatories, solar panels and boiler replacement.
,He said: “From what we are seeing for the first half of this year, it appears that confidence is back. Lead volumes are significantly up and our members are closing lots more business as a result. It’s clear that homeowners are now more confident to push through with renovations and there is more movement in the economy.
,“This presents installers with a golden opportunity to win new business and through our service of leads and support they can easily do this. We don’t see any reason why the year won’t end on an even stronger note.”
