Here are some frequently asked questions you may have: 

Q: What can you do for my business?

Once we select you, the contractor, to be a member of our network, we will help you generate more referrals for your particular business trade within your service area.   You will actually define your service area, and also define your specific services.  This way you will receive referrals only for the areas you desire, and only for services you have requested. While we generate your business leads we help you with your selling process and other business management related services. 

Q: How do you generate referrals for my business?

The Home Improvement Network markets itself on the internet, at local home shows, through direct mailings, signs, newspaper ads, flyers, magazines, and via a vast network of referrals.  Each homeowner that contacts our service is screened by a customer service representative who is knowledgeable in home improvements.  As a member, you will capitalize because we pre-qualify the homeowners for you, resulting in the potential for more productive and qualified business referrals.  This will help reduce some of your costly marketing tactics that do not even produce guaranteed results.  This means you will spend less time prospecting for future jobs, and you will be able to put more time and effort into other areas of your business, or spend more time with your family.   

Q: How do you pre-qualify the homeowner names?

The Home Improvement Network talks to each homeowner over the phone or in person. We will ask them questions on the project size, when they are looking to have the work done, are they ready for estimates now, do they have a project budget and collect all of their contact information. If the homeowners are looking to do the project no later then three to four months and they are willing to set-up an estimate with you now we consider this a good lead. We do have a guarantee on the names we send to you too. If you have a hard time reaching a referral we will call that homeowner on your behalf and leave your name and number!

Q: How do I receive the homeowner names?

Typically we send the homeowner names to you by fax which includes an update of your account balance each and every time.

Q: How do I qualify to become a member?

We currently have the biggest network of local contractors that use our service, and all of them have passed the same screening process that you will go through.  We only want to be associated with contractors who have solid business ethics, strong commitment to customer service, and high standards in the production of their work.  We meet with all of our membership contractors in person, have them fill out an application, and insist they meet the criteria listed below:

• You must meet with one of our representatives
• Liability insurance must be current and verifiable
• Good references where you wish to receive referrals from
• Licenses to do business, when applicable
• Ability to deliver good customer service and quality workmanship 
• The capacity to handle an additional 10 referrals per month, from our service 

Q: How is our service different from those web-based referral services?

We pre-qualify each and every lead over the phone, or in person at home shows.  This results in higher quality leads, and less time and money wasted by your business on unproductive advertising.  We get descriptions of the projects from the homeowners, as well as a timetable for when they ideally would like to get started.  Being a smaller business, you deal with us directly with any problems or concerns.  You won't be receiving any impersonal email responses when you contact our company.  We believe being more personal with both of our customers promotes a better business practice and better results.
